Nice job with tying the letters of MODE to different gameplay mechanics! I liked the chain-reaction puzzle idea too, it was satisfyingly figuring out where to connect the bulbs all together.

Submitted

3-7 was the hardest for me. Great puzzle design. All of the uses of the ways you use the puzzle and what not is great.

Developer

We call that one "Long Distance" - glad to hear you stuck with it!

Submitted

Is 4-7 the last puzzle? I got through them all, but 4-7 just repeats.

Very fun game though! I do love me some puzzles!

Developer

Yes it is! Congrats for completing them all. That's really impressive!

Nice work! You may well be the first one to complete all the puzzles :)

That last one was a bit of a stumper too.
Took me a good while to figure it out.

Submitted

Wow this was awesome, it always blows my mind when people design puzzle games that involve very different mechanics and are able to interweave them like this and create a bunch of levels that simultaneously teach you how to play the game one level at a time, slowly increasing the complexity. I wouldn't know where to even start with making something like that.

The graphics are perfect for a puzzle game like this and the song is a perfect fit too, it feels like it promotes thinking without getting repetitive.

Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! Glad to hear everything clicked for you :)

Amazing puzzle game that deserves more attention. Presentation was awesome, very original, and good use of the theme. Had a ton of fun with this.

Thanks for playing- glad you had a good time with this!

Cute puzzle game! Love the name and your take on the theme. Really solid work!

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad you appreciated our naming efforts :)

Tnx for the submission! Really like quiz games! 
Submitted

nice puzzle thinker! I like it, I got up to 3-4 before needing to move on!

Submitted

This was a really good puzzle game. I really liked the adorable art, and everything is a consistent theme. The title of the game popping up when i failed reminded me of McPixel and got a good chuckle out of me.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed the art :)

Submitted

Man, you've got MODE working on multiple levels here. I felt this had a good scaling of difficulty and interval of learning new things. You did a good job of going for those 'a-ha moments' without making the puzzle solutions too obscure as well. Nice entry!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you found the difficulty just right - we did a lot of playtesting for this specifically!

Submitted(+1)

This is a great little puzzle game! There are some real head scratchers here

Submitted

Really fun and interesting game! I really like the idea, great enty!

Submitted

Great job. I loved it! Cute appearance and the puzzles were really intuitive and fun. I'm focused on music a lot of times with game jams, and it was a very laid back groove. I wish it would loop a little better to be less jarring on the groove you were setting up. Otherwise, great job getting something this good in time for the jam.

Submitted

Great concept, really enjoyed playing the game.  The puzzles get a bit tricky as the game progresses. 

Submitted

I tried to skip ahead in levels and now they're so hard! Really impressive how many you put out, and they really can be a head scratcher :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Wonderfully done! This is a very clever puzzle game, I'm impressed with both the quantity and quality of the levels you were able to put out. The four different modes are clever and put to nice use in solving the puzzles. Great work!

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the levels!

Submitted

Nice puzzles! I'm actually surprised at the amount of levels you got into this game. The music and sound design is nice, but the UI could use a little work instead of showing the title on reset since it might get a bit confusing with closing the game.

I love the title pun.

Submitted

wow! great puzzles. I made it to 3-4, will have to try it again. They're pretty tricky

Developer

I believe in you!

Submitted

I absolutely loved it! So clever with how to solve the puzzles, and I love the artwork of the electricians and lightbulbs! And using M.O.D.E for each of the electrician's modes is the cherry on top. Awesome work!

Developer

Thanks so much!
