GMTK!
I don't like the music. It was making me fall asleep, and doesn't really fit the vibe. Otherwise, its a fun math game. It could be used to teach algebra to students, though its a bit trickier than algebra. Good concept, and good execution.
I really had to think about some of the levels! I think you designed the puzzles pretty well. I wonder if there are multiple solutions for some. Nicely done!
Very nice concept, and enjoyable execution! I loved the art style and music. Well done!
I also made a game about balancing a scale, and while it's a game of cards, the core idea is very similar.
Thank you so much! The names of our games are so similar too haha.
Fun puzzle game about balancing scales. Leaves you to figure out a lot on your own, which is the point, and makes it quite fun and satisfying when you beat the level. Overall pretty interesting take on the 'balancing scales' idea and a good implementation. Best of luck in the jam!
Thanks!
Took about an hour playing through this with a friend, and we finally managed to work out all 19 stages. Early on, I thought [Balloon, 13, 17, 3x scale] would live in my nightmares forever. Little did I know what was coming... (
level 16)Seriously, this was an absolute brain melter at times, and that made finally working out the solution (or even just the values) soooo satisfying. Stuff like the leaf and the ghost scale were used for super creative twists in their levels too! Really clicked with this puzzle game and had a blast! Good stuff you've got here! :)
Thank you so much!
