This game comes in handy when me and my friend get bored.

Cool game! I really liked the way puzzles are presented in the game, how new mechanics are added. Good and balanced level design. Nice work!

Really well done. The right amount of difficultly for game jam as well I feel. Having hints in the level name is a nice touch. Great work!

Great game! I would like it if more levels are made!

What a great game! Great art and music, that does not get boring. Variety and progression in the puzzles, which makes for a really nice experience :)

This was a very good version of the horse divorce puzzle game. The puzzles were the right amount of challenge. The pace of learning how to use the introduced mechanics was near perfect. I streamed it here for my experience:

This game was very fun to play, and just felt very polished. The animations were amazing. Good job, mate!

Was the first jam entry that I played right after I had uploaded mine (I think it was basically the title that draw my attention as I have a project going that is half-named “Handshake”… oh, and of course the inviting thumbnail did a great job, too). Instantly enjoyed it – great idea and execution. Though I was also extremely exhausted that day, shut the overheated computer down only a while later and went to bed. Now returning very last minute to just drop an exited thumbs up for this one. Also: excellent musical choice.

The right balance of puzzling and fun with a decent amount of mechanics introduced over the course of its run time. Hard to say anything unique now that people have said everything that needs to be said. It has a cute theme and does what it sets out to do well.

Very very clever and just the right amount of challenge increasing from level to level! I had overlooked this game originally but I'm glad I gave it a shot before voting closed. This game is truly in the spirit of the jam and a whole lot of fun. Really enjoyed the names of the levels hinting toward the solution without being overt. Awesome work by the whole team!

So many comments has already been posted , it's hard not to repeat. I'll just say that I loved how hand cutting seemed like just a funny little gag at first and then turned into a clever puzzle mechanic. Really solid and fun entry overall.

Wow, I have played and rated 51 games so far and this is a clear winner for me.

It nails pretty much every category. Clever design, smart mechanics, beautiful simple and interesting art, clever link to the theme, brilliant elegant music, and hella fun. Well done

Really great puzzle design! Love how gradually new mechanics were introduced - made the player feel smart like the best Zelda dungeons do. One small polish note would be to have the main music cut out instead of fade down upon the completion of a level, that way there aren't conflicting harmonies happening at the same time. But that's a super small detail and an easy fix. Overall I loved it! Really fun game :)

Really cool puzzle game! I had to really think on some of the levels to complete them. The art looks nice and the music is really fun. Good job on this one!

Really solid game. Nice puzzles, audio, visuals - everything is great. I’d say for me it’s the best game this jam from what I’ve played.

This was an overall great game! Though I feel like I was (sometimes) just stumbling onto the solution without thinking (even in the later levels) and one or two times I was expected to know something I wasn't thought yet. Those were very minor things though! It was definitely one of the best entries. Good luck with the jam!

Easily the best game I've played out of all the entries. The level progression was so nice and the game makes you feel incredibly smart when you unravel the puzzle. 5 stars all around.

Outstanding, easily on my top list so far. So much fun!
Once I dropped a dead hand, it didn't seem I could work around it, so would reset the levels when a hand was cut off.
