Super funny and enjoyable entry! Congratulations :D
I played with this for a while, and at the end I was able to score under 10 seconds for the largest grid. Your answer on other player's comment set the bar, and I felt competitive :P
Jokes aside, great game! Thanks :)
Impressive! I’ve been wondering if it makes sense to invest in leaderboards for my games. Now I start thinking, maybe is does. Thank you.
Really fun to figure out how to optimally solve this!
I go line by line (or row by row) to see if any stays. Works well as-is for the smaller levels, but for the bigger ones I need to finish all rows/columns first before being sure that the random wasn't just too random by staying on one place for too long, great idea!
I felt obliged to get a win under 20s after reading your reply to Daniel's comment 😅
You did it! ❤️
Great presentation and theming! I really liked it. But it is a bit too hard for me on the larger grids. My brain just can't process that many moving tiles at the same time 😄
What would help is having a separate button to refresh the playing field. By having to click an empty field it makes it harder for me to focus on observing the movement of the mice.
But again, it feels like a solid, polished product. Good job
Thank you.
There is a reason why there is no separate button for refresh. That would make detecting the immovable mouse trivial. There would be no game, essentially.
The larger grids are solvable by focusing on a limited section at a time—going row by row, for example. You can “train your brain” to solve the largest grid in under 20 seconds that way.
I agree, allowing to click outside of the grid would totally break the game!
