Nice puzzle game with stylish art, reminds me a lot of Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes but for one person.

How does the game fit the theme?
This is a puzzle game where you have to defuse a bomb. If you make the wrong move, the bomb explodes and you lose. In the most literal sense, nothing can go wrong.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The sounds and music are from Ovani Sound. Everything else was made from scratch.

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!
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!
Wow, that is a very well made puzzle game! Very similar to my original idea for the jam as well.
Great puzzle! I really liked the variety you included here. Had a lot of fun figuring this one out, nice job!
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.
One of my favorite bomb diffusing experience. Love the puzzle design and the arts. Great works!
A perfect little puzzle game! A variety of mind-bending puzzles are seamlessly chained together, complemented by great visual style and well-fitting music.
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!
