Oh man I got trickst. Here I am, aiming for 4, I get 4 and don't win and I'm like huuh? Then the name of the game appears before my eyes and everything was clear.. Yeah it's connect 4 but with 5. The AI isn't terribly smart, I was able to beat it most times by just stacking a single tower. AI is hard to make though... Other than that, it works well besides when you press Play Again it takes you back to some kind of halfway menu? I think you could get rid of the "Do you want to start a game" message, nice of you to ask but of course I want to start a game, it's not like I'm gonna be overriding a save or anything, it's just an unnecessary extra click from the user. Other than that, it's connect 4 but with 5, it works, looks pretty nice, has some chill tunes,, not too shabby :)

A variation to a classic game that is fun to play and fits the theme well.

My thoughts through video playthrough:

Is it just me, or does clicking "Play Again" roll the credits and take you back to the main menu? Perhaps I needed to use the keyboard instead? That unfortunately took me out of the action, and I never really got to experience if the AI gets better with subsequent plays. It doesn't seem like the AI was programmed to be that smart, at least in the 1st stage (again, I don't know if there were supposed to be more stages that I just missed). It's a good start that ties into the theme very well, but it could definitely use some work to feel more engaging over multiple plays.
