Have you per chance played islands of insight? This game reminded me of one of the puzzles there, but yours has a lot of interesting twists on it. I really like it.
As a side note, that rock grinding sound really scratches my ear, I love it.

Very interesting take on the theme. The puzzles are challenging and fun.
The art and music/sfx makes it quite immersive as well.
Good job. :)

Step, Step, Step, RepeatGood job on the difficulty curve! The puzzles are quite difficult, but feel like if you just give them a little bit of time you will eventually get it. It's a nice touch that you can win without a perfect solution - I definitely wouldn't have gotten very far without it. I really liked the art, and the story bits did a good job setting the mood to feel immersed. Congratulations on this one!

Circle of LifeVery interesting idea! The first puzzle are pretty easy but they lead the way to the interesting levels! Congratulation!

Knot in TimeGame feels so polished! Fine indicators, transitions, sounds. Progression is really cool, new mechanics are introduced regularly. The story between puzzles motivates to continue and find another solution. Well done!

The Darkness WithinNice story. I like the indication of which discs will turn when you hover over a disc. The idea of having a special reward if you clear a puzzle in few moves is excellent. Though, I wish you could see the number of moves left to still get the ribbon. Anyway, the puzzles are fun and easy to get into. The art and music really fit well together. The power ups are a great addition. Amazing work!

Age WheelInteresting puzzle game. I definitely don’t have the brainpower for some of the later puzzles haha. But I like your spin on it with the powers.

LoopomotiveI love the puzzles ^w^tIt feels like I have not enough time to solve them >-< I always run out of time. Enjoyed the story passages inbetween. Very moody game, great work <3

Valhalla: Wheel of GodsIncredible little puzzle game! The puzzles themselves are very fun and interesting, especially when “powers” get involved to change the formula up. But what really excited me was the narrative behind it all: it’s amazing how with so little you managed to create an amazing atmosphere that had me wish the game didn’t end! Jam games usually have little to no storytelling, but your’s is a very welcome exception, congrats!

Knot in TimeGreat little puzzle game, well done! The puzzles were just the right balance of hard vs annoyingly hard :)

LoopomotiveNot my cup of tea, but I can see puzzle-enjoyers really liking this one. I will also say, that I appreciated the simplicity of the concept and the emerging story a lot.
I think you nailed it :)

Inside the CaveAn amazing puzzle game! The difficulty curve is fantastic, and the process of going from blindly trying things to grasping the key to solving the puzzles is really enjoyable! Plus, I think the level design is excellent!d(ﾟ∀ﾟd)
