I just finished both games, both are amazing! This game has really good mechanics, and the way you guys made brute forcing nearly impossible is really cool! I love the hints, though I did get stumped with the O2 N and H balances, but that was just me misreading the O2 as just O and everything else looked like a ratio. Once I got that sorted out, it was a piece of cake!

Well done! I like the coffee.

Good idea. It was a bit confusing at the beginning but after that it was a fun concept.

If you are thinking on polish the game further after the jam here are some suggestions:

  • Maybe place the coffee in the middle, so you could set it up, go do something else and then drink it to the way to the next place.
  • There could be some slight indicator of what went wrong, is a bit frustrating not be sure what was the mistake.
  • Skip initial dialogue.
  • Time should stop during reading signs. maybe display timer when using the computers.

Thanks for the in depth suggestions. I went back and forth on whether to stop the time during reading computer/poster and ultimately decided to keep it running because failure was an acceptable outcome for each run since it isn't rng puzzles, but I can see where it could benefit the other way as well. Appreciate you playing it.

Nicely done! Bravo

That was great!! Loved that. The puzzles were fun.

Super excellent exquisite game! The character art and machine interface screens were on point, the coffee was a great hidden power-up, and the animation when you're caffeinated made me smile. The only critique I had was wishing I didn't have to read the dialogue every new day, I just wanted to get puzzling!

I was too dumb to solve the puzzle in a timely manner tho.

Really enjoyed this one! Not often I get a piece of paper to help me out in a game, and that's always cool! Nice music and cute aesthetic, I do like some sci-fi settings in game. Certainly creative for a gameplay idea, great job!
