HOLY Shit Okami meets canvas curse meets snipper clips

Developer

I only know snipper clips but is probably like the other games too!

This was one of our top games of the game, excellent game design and really fun mechanic, clearly alot of thought and effort was put into the puzzles

Developer

I am flattered to hear that:) Thanks for the kind words

Great puzzle game. Took me a while to get them all, and I didn't need all the spaces.
Which is great! Means there's a lot of ways to solve them.

Loved it! Hope you play my game too! :D

I was aiming for people to use their own creativity so I am happy to hear that worked out to some extent at least:) Thanks for playing!

Submitted

A well-thought idea complemented with levels that really made me think about how to solve them. Great work!

Developer

Thank you, glad you liked it:)

Submitted

Amazing job! I've always loved games like this, and you did a wonderful job bringing your own take to it. I enjoyed the different modes of drawing, I had to get really creative to solve these puzzles, there was a great balance of challenge to them. Great work!

Developer

Thank you very much for the kind words and positive feedback! Happy you enjoyed it:)

Developer

Wow thank you so much for the kind words. Really happy to hear this positive feedback:))

This reminds me of the games you would find on the Nintendo DS Store back in the day. The puzzles were great and you did a good job with difficulty slowly ramping up. Good game!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, I asked a friend to give some feedback on the difficulty curve and I think it helped a lot. Happy to hear it worked out well:)

Submitted

I am always bored at school, but never with this game

Submitted

The game was fun and it ran very smoothly! Each level was designed differently so you had to use different approaches. Overall a nice challenge.

Developer

Thanks for you comment, thats exactly what I was going for:)

Had a blast playing this little game. It has some nostalgic value to it I can't quite place!

Submitted

The room with the yellow door was quite difficult! I managed to beat it, but I didn't feel like I got the "right" answer, if that makes sense. 

A lot of the levels were well designed though. Just slightly harder than the one before it and teaching you something new each time. Nice game!

Developer(+1)

Great job on beating it! And thanks for playing and giving some insight on your experience. I did notice that sometimes levels could be 'cheated' a bit, which can be fun, but can also take away the satisfaction. I was also quite content with the difficulty curve, happy to hear you appreciated it:)

Submitted

Super polished, and great level design to boot! This one has a really relaxing atmosphere and creative gameplay while still maintaining a good challenge for puzzle fans. Very nice work on this one!

Developer

Im very happy to hear that, thanks!

Submitted

Very cute game. 

I got stuck in the (first?) room with the yellow door and ground. Any tips would be appreciated 

Developer(+1)

Hi, thanks for you comment:) Without giving to much away, I intended that level to be solved through building something by combining all drawings. It involves moving pieces. If you end up going for another try let me know how it went!

Submitted(+1)

Fun game, good idea, well made! Nice work. Reminds me of Crayon Physics Deluxe, but with limitations.

Help me out by rating my game here: Thanks!
