Fun idea! Using loops and equations for puzzles is creative. The graphics are simple and clear. Nice work!

After all the time I've spent on this level... I've rarely felt so betrayed in a game jam!! Otherwise I was having fun, good job! 😁

Sorry man. I miss this "obvious" solution. How can this happen to me? I also feel so betrayed.
Anyway, thank you so much for spotting this unexpected solution. Will include it once the voting period ends. Hope that you enjoy the other levels.

You're alone and we're many, that was bound to happen! I was just teasing, good job on the game :)

Extremely creative and I discovered more mechanics as I got pass 2-3 more levels! I did eventually get stuck on level 7 after a lot of tries... I will probably be trying it again :D However, the elements I have seen so far is a easy 5 star on creativity. I can't believe you created puzzles this intricate with such great mechanics in 4 days.

I really loved the math & puzzle element in the game. It really humbled me in terms of my puzzle ability haha. The difficulty is really challenging but it's a good challenge and mechanics are well introduced.

One small suggestion will probably be to combine the level narrative text with the gameplay, because the bright blue screen basically just flashes on when I click the level haha. However, it isn't any issue, just personal preferences.

Great job!

Cannot believe non-puzzle players can pass levels 5 and 6. You are so smart.
In fact, after knowing about the theme, I went alseep. When I woke up, the idea of forming loops of equations just came into my mind, together with the design of all the 9 levels. Literally 50% of the game is finished in that 10 minutes. And I can proudly say that they all come from God. So I managed to submit my project 2 days before the deadline.

Really clever take on the theme, a bit hard tho, you have to think carefully to solve the loops.

Developer(+1)

Feel free to look at the hints when you get stuck. Thanks for playing.

Simple but I hope there was a "Hint button" so that i can finish level 2 that killed me anyway Great game!

Simple, but effective. Nicely done. :)

Developer

Thanks for playing. The concept is simple but the later levels are not that simple though :).

Very interesting puzzles, I will go back to solve the 5+ plus puzzles when my brain will have cooled down from the weekend

Developer

Glad to see you enjoy solving them. Feel free to ask for hints when you get stuck.

Very fun!

Developer

Thanks.

Submitted(+1)

Fun and challenging concept, will definitely come back to play some more and beat all the levels. I did encounter one bug though, occassionally tiles would just completely disapear when dragging them, not too big a deal as you can just undo.

Developer

I'm really glad you like this concept. Feel free to ask for hints when you get stuck.

It's a fun math game. Good work!

Developer

Thank you for playing.

this game debunked my theory that me brain is nonexistant, 10/10

Developer

Feel free to ask for hints when you get stuck and hope you find satisfaction when solving the puzzle.

👋 Hey!

I just played your game and I really enjoyed it — it was fun and engaging " I love math and puzzles"! 🎮

I wanted to share my game with you too — it's called Jumpimal🐾

It's a cute and fast-paced jumping game I made during GMTK Jam.

I’d love to hear your thoughts if you get a chance to try it!

I’d also be happy to give more feedback on your game if you’d like.

Thanks a lot, and best of luck in the jam! 🍀

Thanks for giving such a nice review! Will definitely play yours too.

Submitted(+1)

Very interesting, sadly my brain wasn't big enough to solve it after a point but i can see the potential in future mechanics, which is what you want from a puzzle game.

Developer

Feel free to ask for a hint. I am trying my best to set a suitable difficulty for most players and increase enjoyment.

Submitted(+1)

Very cool!

Developer

Glad that you like it.
