Game Description
Rotate hexagons around another and match 5

How does your game tie into the theme?
Matches require semetrical neighbor hexagons, matches are made rotating around a hexagon semetrically, even the audio queues scale sounds by octaves to reinforce the idea.

Hey hey!! Very nice game! Looks clean, responds well, and the sounds and music are wonderful!

I think the one big thing that might have solved the unwinnable state issue is if, when the player rotates a ring, it doesn’t bounce back into its original place, but rather the pieces a moved after the rotation. This would allow players to chain-move pieces to score points. To add difficulty, the player could have a limited number of moves or each move could cost (score)points. This would make the game infinitely solvable, but the strategy would be the player choosing their moves wisely so as to either not use as many moves for a match, or to retain as much of their score as they can.

Just my idea. Otherwise, A very lovely game!! Excellently done!!

at first i thought "bah, this looks like every other shape-based match-puzzle game out there"...

and then i played it for i have no idea how long. really nicely done, and i especially liked how the music reacted to sequences of matches and more-than-5-hexagons-matches! :)

Nice audio!
My team's game is about rotating tile-based polygons and with dynamic sound effects as well! Hope that you can check it out ^^

The combos are super satisfying with the increasing sound. It's really peaceful to play. Maybe some kind of progression system would be nice, imho. Very nice first GWJ entry though!
