Good game :D but it requires some information on what i am doing and why i am doing that. other than that i can see this game being a hyper casual masterpiece. Good luck :D
if you would like to test my game:

I like the phrase "hyper casual", that's something I want to create! :) Thank you for your feedback.
Very nice look and feel, good feedback, although not sure about what the gameplay is and what the goal is.
Thank you for the feedback! These things definitely need to become clear.
i love the music! couldn't really figure out how it works, but overall an extremely well put together game. good job!
Thank you for the kind words! :)
Very cool and unique! The art is so crisp and color choices are great, so even though not much is happening other than clicking it is still nice to look at haha. Great ambient sound and music too. Definitely work on it some more after getting some feedback~ pls try my browser game if you have time.
Thank you for the compliments! :) Indeed, there isn't much to do in the game, that's its main drawback and I am not sure if I know how to fix it. It was a neat experiment, at least. ;)
That was trippy! :D good job there!!! Really unique and atmospheric game ^^^
Thank you! Actually, when I was developing it, I kept repeating the word "Trippy, Trippy, Trippy" to try and come up with something like that, haha.
This was the only jam game so far that gave me an 'Aha-Moment'. Great music and nice art. I really enjoyed the game, but I think it would get boring after a while. Maybe if there was more to do, this could become a nice mobile game.
Hey, what you said in that comment is literally the most pleasing thing to my ears, because "Aha-Moment" is what I was hoping to achieve. Indeed, more stuff was planned and I didn't manage to add all of it. Thank you for playing!
Interesting idea and great atmosphere! :)
but to me it it is too cryptic, even with reading some tips I'm still not sure if I get it 100%.
Thanks! I got so many replies about not knowing what to do that now I will probably put something like that on my wall: "CLARITY FIRST, YOU DUM DUM DESIGNER!" :)
Interesting prototype, with a little bit of love it will become a full game :)
Luckily, love is what I have! :) Thank you for the kind words.
Really atmospheric music and I had fun trying to get the hang of the game!
Thank you, the musician shall be proud. :) I really like the soundtrack he came up with, too.
Nice game !
I had fun figuring out what to do in the game, nice visual and sounds, but is there an end ? (got 20+ stars but it gets old after a while when there is no objective or reward)
Thank you so much for playing it thus far! Sorry for not leaving a note in the description that no progression was added to the game yet. I am glad you enjoyed the game nonetheless. :)
The art is nice and it's interesting that getting it wrong decreases your total score. I stopped when I got to 20 in the hope of not losing a bunch of points again, but I suppose there is a special message when you get to -1. There seemed to be a relation between the icons and their score (+1 or -1), but I couldn't figure it out.
Hi, thank you for playing! The hint lies in one single picture to the left that changes on every level. If you remember which picture is which button, everything should be clear. ;)
I didn't understand the game. Can you please explain it.
Hi! The game relies on remembering which icon (in the middle of the menu to the left) represents which button, once you figure it out.
Thanks!
It was cool, trying to figure out what the different icons meant in terms of game rules. Took me a while and I still don't quite get all of them haha.
Good work on the graphics, looks very cool. The style reminds me a bit of the submachine game series which I love.
Thank you for the kind words and especially for introducing me to Submachine! It does, indeed, look very exciting and may become a big source of inspiration for me.
It's a great webgame series by a single guy who has built this really interesting universe over many years. It's often super atmospheric and can be quite thought provoking, at least to me. Enjoy :)
Took a bit to figure out, think its really promising especially if you expanded on it! Graphics, music and game play fit together really well! Great job
I'd love it if you'd play my game https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-2/rate/553005
Liked the atmosphere and music in this one! It was a bit unclear what to do at first, but then I understood I just had to search for the "plus" giving item most of the time. Would've liked to see something happen when you go to a higher number (I got 20+) or below 1. Could be a start of something interesting, just need a lot more events and other stuff.
I planned to make things change with levels and add a lot more things, but didn't have time to implement that. However, making something happen when below level 1 is something I didn't think of. It's a creative idea, thank you! :)
Love the look of it but I gues I didn't figure out the game itself
Sorry, it's totally the designer's (my) fault. I will work on making the game more understandable if I get back to it! :)
Yeah I just clicked random stuff, thought I was onto some sort of patter and rinse and repeat, did that for like 8 minutes. Cool game, but.....confused.
Adding some textile feedback to those buttons would make this much more satisfying to play imo
Thank you for testing Devlum! I will focus on making feedback more clear if I keep working on the game. ;)
Hell ye cool stuff!
I kind of just clicked random stuff to I got the + 1 or -1 I needed? Were the pictures related? I got to 15 levels of pentagram. I'd say the main high points were the visuals and music. The music gave a very nice atmosphere! I was quite confused so maybe a small tutorial would've been nice
Thank you for the compliments! I wanted to implement some tutorial-ish progression, indeed, but ran out of time. Thanks for the notice! You get +1 if you click on the currently required button/picture, which is represented by a hint in the middle of the left menu. This hint will always be attached to only one button, so it's basically a game about remembering which one is which.
It is definitely a very crazy game of those that make you blow your mind. Excellent!
Glitched Multiverse is my submission =)
I didn't intend to make it so puzzling, but hey, glad that it turned out to be like that in the end! Thanks. :D
I've got to 18 level of... pentagram? Is there any logic behind the pictures. 1 picture switches the big picture at the right and the rest are just +1 or -1. I think I get it, but it's a little confusing. The music is great tho.
Unfortunately, there isn't a point in getting far in the game yet. You can click on pretty much everything in the game and you get +1 to score if you choose the right button (it changes on every level). The hint to what to press is shown in the middle picture on the left menu. Thank you for playing! :)
