The game crashed occasionally, but overall I liked it. The theme is 100% perfect, and the rulebook idea is perfect.

Thank you for the feedback and I will definitely fix this when voting ends.

Owwwh very cool entry. I kind of went for a similar thing in my game, where you can edit the rules to find a way to win. Its cool to see the same concept in a different game style. I think it would be better to have a menu with the rules to edit always open rather than having to keep pressing tab but yeah I had fun playing :D

Developer

ohhh it is, Thank you for the feedback.

Great entry, would love to see more. I think you forgot to remove the unchangeable rule in the last level. That would be a good idea to take this. Some rules can't be changed, some can only change a little, or you have a limited number of changes, maybe you could collect changes or unlock rules in the level. Endless possibilities really.
(And small tipp, you don't need a quit button in the web version. It just freezes the game until you reload)

Developer

Thank you for the feedback and yes this Idea will definitely make this game more better.
