this is lovely!!! rly fun gameplay, great visuals & music... im a bit biased toward panel de pon lol, but i think this is a very nice twist on it. i like the cursor flipping myself, although i did think the cursor was a bit hard 2 see. the "charge" indicator is also perhaps too subtle (it took me a while 2 even notice it). overall excellent job, this is very cool!!
This was a lot of fun! A cool take on panel, and the chain forms to score well with these loops and blobs are unusual and not very common. The art is great and so is the music, it was a really nicely presented experience. I do find flipping the cursor's orientation a little disorienting and awkward...I would have preferred the 2x2 cursor from kuru kuru twinkle where one button flips the bottom row with the top, and the other button flips one column with the other; that way you never have to twiddle with or remember your cursor's state and can just focus on the board instead.
Thank you for giving the game a shot, I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed it!!
The 2x2 cursor is an interesting suggestion... on paper, I do wonder how Kurukuru Twinkle's mechanic of swapping columns and rows in groups of two would impact building more precise shapes of circuits as opposed to simply matching blocks by color. That being said, I understand finding the cursor rotation to be a bit inelegant of an approach...I definitely plan to experiment with ways to further streamline the block-swapping process down the road
To follow up on the other reply, a match entails practically any arrangement of same-color blocks that connect with each other on the horizontal / vertical axes and form a closed shape. A two-by-two square is the simplest arrangement, but it could also be a three-by-three square, a two-by-three rectangle, or any form of abstract polygon... just so long as they're comprised of the same color and you can draw a continuous line from any one block in the circuit back to itself by following the path you build.
