Hard to play but interesting puzzler. I would recommend starting with a small pyramid and move on to larger pyramids, to increase the difficulty level gradually. The risk is otherwise that the player gives up early which - I am sorry to say - I did myself. The style - both sound and art - is however flawless and looks like a genuin NES game. Great job!

neat little puzzle game! it’s an interesting concept with great execution. I think the only thing it’s lacking is some sort of structure, in order to provide a difficulty curve and incentive to play more. overall nice entry!

Really really loved y'all's entry here—the gameplay/sound/art and everything are perfect.. The ability to set/share the seed is a brilliant idea here, too! Thanks for making and sharing your game!

Very interesting concept, I really enjoyed the art and music. I wish there was a mode without a timer so I could learn a little easier, but still an awesome entry to this jam!
