In what way does your game fit the theme?
There are a LOT of gems in the game and every type does a different thing and some of them are hard to see the difference between them. In most games they are like currency but in this game, some gems can kill you. That makes it very chaotic. Or the chaos reigns because there are so many gems.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. All the code, art, sound effects, and music were made by me from scratch.

really nice game in my opinion :)
I had fun playing the game. Your stage design is great! The only problem I encountered is difficulty in distinguishing between a fake and a real gem. Overall, I think it’s a great game.
good mechanics i love it and i enjoyed but game a little hard
great, and I love the control, its easy to learn the game! Hows mine?
One of the most fun puzzle games it made me go insane Because i died ;)
30/30 stars
One of the most fun puzzle games I have played in this jam. Great job just a little tip in a game jam you should games a little easy so you should have made fake and real gems more distinguishable :D
Thank you for the feedback! I will make sure that I don't make same mistake twice.
Fun game. Though i kinda got stuck on level 6...
Other than that it looks good.
Awesome game! Enjoyed it :)
Interesting idea! I suspect there are lots of hidden pathways to discover with the fake red gems! I liked the way the instructions were laid out. Very clear.
My suggestions are:
- I wish you could close the help with WSAD and not need to use the mouse every time
- Pressing H to open help after first level would have been useful!
- It could have been easier to understand if each type of gem was introduced 1 by 1 each level, so you could learn them as you go rather than trying to digest everything at once
Great work, best of luck
Thank you for the feedback! I will add the function to open the instructions by pressing H and to close them with WASD after the game jam ends. Thanks again.
pretty cool little puzzle game! i actually enjoyed really having to think about my movements and going outside of the screen, real great work.

Cool puzzle game. I got 9/18 in the end, not sure if it's a good score or not.
Nice puzzle game!
This was a cool game, there was a nice puzzle element to it! The art was alright and I like how you gave the player a white outline, made it really easy to distinguish from all of the bright red crystals filling the screen! I have no complaints, nice job!
Cool Game! The art style is great! I like that if you move towards a gem that it reflects light! The Music is cool too! Keep it up
Very cool unique game
Cool puzzle game
Thanks!
The game is very well designed, the levels are all unique, and the "think OUTSIDE the box" idea really added to the theme. I think that the graphics and audio work really well together, and overall, good job!
Thank you so much!
I really like it, good job :) the level design is really good, using the fake red gems to make level (I think) 3 or 4 be like a memory test is a cool idea. The fact you made the art and music and code from scratch is insane.
Thank you!
