I am totally blown away, and completely ashamed of my inability to finish this game. This feels like something I would have spent hours chipping away at in the 90s, and that's a huge compliment from me. Polished, thoughtful, completely functional, I love everything about this game and I don't like puzzle games most times. The only thing I think lacking that would make this feel like completely not a game jam game would be music or ambient audio, something to keep my idle brain busy while I sort through the puzzle. I'm almost definitely coming back to this game on my own after the jam to finish playing it, thanks so much for making this for us!

Wow, thanks a lot for your comment!
As you have noted, sound effects and ambience have been a bit of an afterthought compared to the rest, we did spend some time on it but it was late in the jam.
Regarding difficulty, it is very heartening to hear that you want to stick with it despite being stuck! We have struggled a lot with tuning the hints and explanations on how to progress, there was one playtesting session where I had almost given up hope that this would work at all.
Thanks again, your comment means a lot to us!
