Hi Jupiter, thanks for trying out my game - it's good to know what aspects were unclear and where I should be putting a little more time in. Speaking of which, the reason why the rings kept shuffling is because there was a clear line of sight betweeen the prisoner (the person in the middle of the rings) and the guards (the little red eyes on the rings).

Thanks for your compliments! The level generation process does often end up spawning trivial puzzles disappointingly often, and you're right to point out that hand-making the puzzles would likely turn out some more consistently interesting puzzles. I'd originally planned to do this, but some things outside the jam came up that necessitated my wrapping up early (hence the early publish date), and I still wanted to submit something.
