Did you credit all assets in-game (including your own) as required by the rules?

Yes

How did your team implement the focus (and optionally, the theme)?
When I saw the only mouse control diversifier, I immediately thought of a turn based game. And I believe with the implementation of optional theme escape, the game has the thrill of a race.

Solo (1)

Which diversifiers did you use, if any? (optional)

I enjoyed the puzzles in this one. This was a change in pace from the usual racing genre. (I assumed it was a unique twist on scrabble at first lol) I managed to make it to level 10 (some of this puzzles were real head scratchers but not too difficult) I found this bug were anytime I was trapped in corners with one or no tile available for movement the screen would go blank. Asides that little issue though everything was fine. Nice concept and very fun game!

Good puzzler with atmospheric music! My only complaint is using the right button for restart. It didn't work on my touchpad.

Nice puzzles! Some of them got me thinking for a while, but I managed to successfully escape ;-) Good job on making the levels feel challenging!

Pretty cool, but I just couldn't get past level 12! Well done on the game and implementing so many levels in a short time!
