Music is good and I really like the concept. I wish there were a bit more hints. I got stuck on 5 :)

Nice puzzles, the number one had me stumped!

That was a fun game. It is cool that it wasn't obvious all through out

Havent found any major problems. I like the puzzles, some you have to think outside the box, overral really great game!

I love small out-of-the-box thinking puzzle games. My favorites are ones where you can just manipulate things until you figure out what you're supposed to do. The 3rd and 4th puzzles follow this a bit so were my favorites. I'm not sure how long it would have taken me to figure out the 5th puzzle without the hint, but it made clear sense after solving it! I'm still not sure why the solution to the 6th puzzle is what it is though.

I think my biggest complaint/critique would be regarding how you control the game/manipulate objects. I don't think pushing with a cursor that moves based on where you clicked feels the greatest to use. It's a bit too slow and clunky at times. I would have preferred a click and drag objects.

Great job on making the game, and I would love to see more puzzles/levels!

Thank you for your detailed feedback.

I made up the game as I was coding it, and the design decisions may not have been the best. :)

Interesting. I got stuck on the number level, which didn't make sense to me. I would recommend posting a walkthrough somewhere so that us that can't complete the game can see the rest of the game. Still, well done!

Thanks. :) I've gotten several comments about the numbers challenge, so I'll provide a hint: Tic-Tac-Toe

Hey, this was a really cool concept for a game! I enjoyed the mystery behind every puzzle. However, I felt like some of them didn't make sense such as the number one and the shape one. I could be completely overlooking something though. Apart from that though, I really liked your game!

Cool idea for a game! the first few levels seemed to be well designed, and the solution wasn't completely obvious or impossible to find. Though I did have a problem one the fifth level (with four smiley faces unlocked) - I won't spoil it for anyone else looking, but it seemed like the obvious solution didn't work. Maybe I was just missing something. Great choice on the music, it fit really well!

"the obvious solution didn't work"

That would be boring, wouldn't it? :)
