Nice little game! I like how it's simplistic yet challenging. Well done!

Super fun and simple brain twister game. It's like using your left had if you're right handed. I felt like I was exercising my brain! With some sound and game juice this could be a really fun a polished game!! Keep working on it for sure. Congrats on submitting a cool brain game to the jam! Please check out mine if you haven't :D
I just want to say, fantastic job on effectively scoping your game to get it done within the time. The game works perfectly and does everything it needs to be playable. Of course there's more you could add to improve the game, but now you have the basic working version to fall back on if you do decide to experiment with more features. Well done!
Thanks so much!!! I actually did spend just as much time brainstorming as I did coding the actual game. I try do avoid pitfalls in paper, before I get into a coding-road-block I can't get out of. In fact, it's really fun to see a well-written/scoped-out idea drafted in a piece a paper gain shape and actually reach a functional state on the screen! Fun stuff if you as me! Thanks for the comment.
I do not know if its allowed to drop my comment on another hehe, but it shows: your idea is solid and after reading the instructions, made sense. A lot of thought process went to this , and the execution is to the point. I am really interested if you could share some more indepth strategies of your paper and pen drafting procedure. Thanks!
Really cool game and good fit for the theme! I would suggest adding obstacles to decrease score as well. Well done!!
Really simpel but effective concept. My score was 17.
Maybe add some fail state to give the player more motivation to beat their old score?
A nice concept, I quite like showing the score on the point you have to collect, its a very concise way of minimising UI elements! I feel like the game could use some kind of external pressure like a timer or being chased so that you can't just sit and look and what key you need one at a time. Really nice job with what's there so far though!
simple, yet fun idea. Although, what might also be fun or at least more challenging would be to hide the controls from the player.
But that's just me, I like challenging games ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Simple proof of concept, not too bad if this is your first game. Keep it up!
