The minimalistic style and the bing you get when you match a shape are great. i love tangram puzzles. the overlapping shapes are a nice switch up from the classic tangrams and i feel they make the game a bit more casual, and that's a good thing.

Nice and simple, lots of levels. At times the overlapping shapes can be confusing, but I didn't have too much trouble figuring it out. Nice submission!

I will have to come back to this not on my lunch break with only a trackpad on my work laptop because the scrolling is near impossible with that. It seemed like the 3rd shape that was broken up, the triangle on the left side did not fit with the other pieces but it could be I kept scrolling past the correct size. It was nice that the other 2 pieces gave an audio queue that they were in the right spot. Reminded me of the puzzle pieces in Braid. Very nice clean design from all members of the team. As a fellow audio maker, Kim Tae Woo's sounds were well done.

Pleasant game. I think the last level is the best because it had no overlapping shapes. Overlapping shapes made the game slightly worse because you could never be 100% sure that what you were doing is right, even if all the space that needed to be filled up was filled up. Still, that's a pretty small nitpick, the important thing is that the aesthetic, gameplay and music added up to a very nice experience.

Thank you for the kind words and feedback! We thought that the overlapping mechanic would add depth to the puzzles, but I guess it's not what the game really needed. Thanks for playing the game, anyways!

I really like this game, it's quite satisfying and the puzzles are a good level of difficulty to maintain that satisfaction without making it too easy. The sound effects are great and it's a nice mechanic and application of the theme. Well done!

Developer

Thank you for the comment! I'm glad that you enjoyed the game.

This was a lot of fun, I wish there were more levels! I very much enjoyed the *ding every time a piece was in the right spot. 

Developer

Thank you! We hoped that the ding sound would be memorable yet not disturbing. Glad to see that it worked out for you!

This was truly lovely, thank you for making this game.  It reminds me of Cubism, I can easily imagine assembling this shapes in a cosy VR world.

Developer

Thank you for playing the game! We did think of Picasso while making the game :) VR is also a very nice idea!

I really enjoyed this game! The vibe and sound effects were on point, and it had a calming feel to it. I just wish the overlapping mechanic was a bit clearer from the start, but once I figured it out, everything clicked. Great job overall!

Developer

Thanks! We definitely should have put a simple stage to make the player aware of the overlapping mechanic.

Ho I enjoyed this so much. The vibe, the click sound, the feeling. I want more. Please develop more levels after the jam :D 5 stars!

Developer

Thank you for the positive feedback! We put great effort in making the vibe just right!

Submitted(+1)

Love the concept and love the vibes, very a little to the left feeling which is awesome, sound effects are great, overall aesthetic is really strong and consistent. I think allowing some of the shapes to overlap is sometimes confusing but overall it add an additional interesting element in figuring out where everything slots together. Awesome work!

Thanks for playing! I did have 'A Little to the Left' on my mind when I was making it, and I'm happy to see that in the comments.

Very cute game, Thanks for making it!

A cleaner explanation of the possibility to overlap shapes would help but it's very good anyways

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! Maybe we'll put in-game explanation on overlapping after the jam ends!

Submitted

That would be very cool, Thanks <3

Submitted(+1)

Love the subtle sound effects and the entire chill visual vibe. I wish I didn't have to check the comments to realize you can overlap shapes - spent way too long trying to find a way to rotate them lol

Developer

Thanks! We did consider rotating but decided to put that away because it interfered with all the overlapping. We should have gone with the rotating instead of overlapping...

The sound effects and the visuals were awesome!!

The theme was great interpreted! Great job!

Just as all of the other players I loved the audio, style and the art!

Now dont mind me trying my best to complete the (I love these puzzle games but suck at them or you can say I hate to love these kind of games)

Developer

Thank you! I'm pleased that you enjoyed the presentation.

Once I realized you could overlap pieces, the game clicked for me. Nice game! Very relaxing.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! We'll mention the overlapping in the description :)

Thank you for playing our game! We took a fair amount of time searching for the music that's just right :)

Nice and simple puzzles! I wish there was a separate option for controls, though: the main laptop I use only has a touchpad, which makes scrolling much harder to control, so I had to get an extra mouse. There were also some other movements where I had to move one of the shapes slowly before completing the level. Other than that, I enjoyed the creative puzzles, and how they fit together. It has a very nice style and it was very simple to understand.

Developer

Thanks for pointing out the lack of support for the touchpad! It's true that we didn't think of any other input devices other than the mouse...
