This was a very tranquile puzzle experience. I like how laid back it felt. Also, kudos for the color blind support with patterns. I'm not color blind, but I really appreciate that extra detail. I love the minimalistic art style and sound effects. The puzzle ideas were fun. However, I was able to solve most of them by picking a random tile and reverse engineering where I needed to go based on what was left after I died once or twice. I think the idea itself was fun, but I didn't find myself particularly challenged because I just couldn't remember which tile did what. I think that was the "out of control" element regarding the theme, but that just made me blindly pick tiles until I won rather than using puzzle solving skills like I normally would. Overall, I like the game a lot, I just wish I could've used my brain a bit more instead of randomly selecting tiles because I couldn't remember what tiles did. Great job and presentation on your game :)
