Nice puzzle game with stylish art, reminds me a lot of Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes but for one person.
Thank you! The idea originated from Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes so it means a lot to hear that feedback!
Very nice! The puzzles were great, the visuals very strong. I think you could have a slightly lower base time, perhaps by 30 seconds or so, to make it a bit more tense!
Thank you for playing and for the kind words on the visuals and feedback!
I loved this game! Quick and fun but tense. I had to try a few times to get it, but I had a blast figuring it out a little every time!
Wow, thank you!
Great entry, with a tense atmosphere! I liked having to figure out the puzzles. Maybe the symbols' one was taking a bit more time than the others because there's a lot of symbols to find. Also, as another comment said, having the puzzles randomized would stop players to brute force the cables one.
Well done!
Thank you! Appreciate your feedback!
stylish game, good job
Thanks!
Wow, that is a very well made puzzle game! Very similar to my original idea for the jam as well.
Thank you!
Great puzzle! I really liked the variety you included here. Had a lot of fun figuring this one out, nice job!
Thank you!
I like the visuals. I have to say I brute-forced the cable cutting part because I didn't realize the green thing was supposed to be placed over the note. So maybe having randomized answers would help later on.
Thanks! I appreciate your feedback, I had originally planned to make each puzzle randomized, but didn’t have enough time to pull it off.
Very hard for me to finish it in time, but I loved to try it for multiple times. Greate visuals and music choice as well. Got me tripping with all the glyphs, lmao
Please play and rate my game as well, thanks!
Thank you, I appreciate your message and will play and rate yours as well.
Finally finished but it took me two more eyes to help!
Great job! I really like the visuals.
Thank you!
One of my favorite bomb diffusing experience. Love the puzzle design and the arts. Great works!
Wow thank you!
Very fun, enjoyed the puzzles a lot! Nice job :D
Thank you!
A perfect little puzzle game! A variety of mind-bending puzzles are seamlessly chained together, complemented by great visual style and well-fitting music.
Wow thank you! I really appreciate your kind message!
good game and good idea.
Thanks!
OOOooooo curse that whicked Dr. Bomb Bomberson!!!! Luckily I managed to beat him with 14 second left on the clock! A fun bomb diffuse game! I thought it looked good and played well :D Great job!
Nicely done! Thank you for the kind words!
Nice! I like the visuals quite a lot, im just confused on what I am supposed to do. I understood how to get the code but not the rest. But except that, it is very cool!
Thank you so much for the kind words! The papers and objects toward the bottom of the screen can be clicked and moved around - the next phase of the puzzle requires interaction there.
