Pretty cute idea. Solved the game once, but gotta be honest, still don’t quite understand the logic behind it. Like, I sorta do, but also not quite. Maybe a clearer explanation of the concept would help to get more players into it?

How does your game fit the theme?
MineSweeper? No, a MineSetter! The same arithmetic rule as the classical MineSweeper but this time to set all the mines!
Did your team create the vast majority of the art during the 48 hours?
No
We used pre-existing art
Did your team create the vast majority of the music during the 48 hours?
Yes
We created the vast majority of the music during the game jam

Nice to see another take on minesweeper reversal. I wish I had the patience to figure it out haha

Mine in HellIntresting game with a cool concept, it took me a bit to figure out, though the game lacked in music, but overall great game!

The Cleanse of the Dungeon CleanerVery original choice! First time I see the reversal theme applied to MineSweeper!

Input To ActionWow!! This is really cool, and really expands on the core game play

I used to be an AdventurerTook a while to figure out what is exactly going on, but this is brilliant! Really great idea and the game itself is really addicting and enjoyable to play, would work perfectly as a mobile game.
The game lacks some form of a tutorial (obviously xD) and you would want to polish it more if you were to do something more with it after the jam, but otherwise great job, really solid entry!

Golfn'tI used to play minesweeper all the time, so this was really nostalgic for me. It's amazing how similar and different from the original game it felt at the same time. I would love it if there was a timer so I could tell if I was getting better or not, but other than that, fantastic game!

Pinball RiggingExtremely clever idea. I could have used some easier introductory levels to get the hang of it.

Bait BurglarAt first this made no sense, then I read some comments and realized what it was. Now that I understand, I can't stop playing! This was really well executed, great stuff.

Deep WatersVery cool idea! A tutorial would be a great next step for this game. I was unsure of what to do initially, but I am also a noob at minesweeper ;)

Quest GiverIt took me a while to figure out how this works but now i really like the idea.

Tower Offense Bullet HellMinesetter is a better name than Mineplacer lmao
I'm surprised that simply reversing a Minesweeper leads to completely different strat and experience from original game. Finding out the strategy was really fun, I managed to solve 2 boards. I only wish that restart button was always available, nice work :)
