Great concept and execution! Graphically very pleasing. Sometimes wished the sliders has labels.

Developer

Thank you! I think the game would be too easy with labels, and they would add unnecessary weight on visuals I wanted to be as simple as possible. I thought it would have been a nice addition to let players add their own labels tho, but I missed time! Or perhaps show some cryptic acronyms...

Nice concept! I liked a lot this game. Very creative.

Developer

Thank you so much! I liked making it too, have done several jams before and this one was really focused and straightforward for me. Glad you like it!

Thanks! I too thought about being not too strict with the solutions, so I tuned each step (the sliders increment) so that the differences would be noticeable. Maybe it's still too strict, and that might call for difficulty settings for a post jam!

Very clever, beautiful, and intuitive! Great ideas!

Thanks Dja! I was driven by that minimalist aesthetic and what can be done by some really simple shapes (just a bunch of html divs and text) and a set of simple controls. Glad you liked it!

What a cool game! This is so creative and the puzzles were a lot of fun to solve!

Thank you! The "take the most of the less" is an approach I like a lot.
