Ah man I wish I had gotten to play this one during the official voting period. What a neat game. The AI is a little silly in its choices but the further in I got the more stressful and strategic the moves I had to make were, and it was really fun.
Nice job incorporating multiple interpretations of power and having such a polished version ready for the jam!
Lovely little 2048 inspired game! I got to 2048 power but couldn't move after that for some reason. I think the strategy is a little simple, I would have liked some more engagement maybe like being able to change either the movement number or direction of log₂(current power) enemies per turn or something? But other than that nitpick this is really well done, great job!
Aesthetic and music are STUPID good!
Really Good ArtStyle!!
Cool game! Love the style and the take on a 2048 game. The game did softlock where it wouldn't let me select a square when I tried to move when I had over 65 thousand power. But overall it was fun, great work!
the music is really catchy and once i got used to the gameplay it was hard to put down great job
Really fun! Simple but addicting. Great visuals too! good job :)
Seems like a fun little 2048 style game. It made sense once I figured out you/enemies only merge with equal sized entities. Really cute game!
Fun and addicting game! Feels like a very fun take on the mechanic from 2048 with really nice art :) The randomness was well balanced, making each run unique. A bit sad that my best and final run was haltered by a game-breaking error but had a really good time regardless ;)
Love the art style! There’s a fair amount of strategy involved as the game progresses to where you really have to think about where you need to position yourself to combine each enemy.
Feels like a turn based combat version of "Threes" or 2048. Solid gameplay great art!
Great art. Great music. Nice fun, compact game.
Cool concept for this game, loved the art and music it was relaxing lol
Merge games are fun, and this is a fun spin on the genre. Great presentation, chill vibes - I really enjoyed my time with this game! :)
