Really cool concept, managed to make a chill experience with Chaos. The puzzles are tough, but it's very fun. I'd love to see more of this! :)

Thank you  so much for the comments!

Nice concept! Took me several trials and the help of comments to figure it out, a hint button could indeed be useful, but good work!

Submitted

Great game! A bit too difficult but I gues thats the aim right. Good job!

Super clever, but really challenging puzzle game. I had to look at the comments (and do a bit of Googling) to figure things out, but I love the concept and what you were going for. I think with a bit more refinement and polish you could have something really special. Challenging the player to pick up on NPC patterns is such a fun gameplay loop, just needs some tuning and refinement

Developer

thank you so much for the feedback! It was pretty hard to balance between giving out clues and not spoiling the game, which could make the game becomes too cryptic. I'll tweak some more after the jam, feel free to check my page for later updates!

I like the aesthetics of the game, controls worked well, and there are animations too!. Sadly, I dind't figured out what was the pattern that I needed to see :(

Developer

Thanks for playing! The game requires experimenting and keen observation, so it could be very tricky sometimes.. Looking back, I  should've implemented a hint button 😅 Some hints I can give you is that each level are based on popular kids games, and that positions and the order of things matters in the game. Oh and also if you're still stuck on the first one, check the game screenshots for hint 😉

Very unique, I really liked this one WELL DONEE

I ..don't think I get what to do. I approached all the NPCs but nothing really happened...

Developer

Hi miffrandir, for game 1 the hint is on the screenshots 😉

I'm sorry, I don't think I got it. I solved the first two puzzles (though I don't know how I solved puzzle 2, and I'm stuck on Puzzle 3.

Stand on top left corner for 5 seconds, you'll see.

The controles and the instructions are really clear and polished. The secrets are quite challenging!

I liked the structured chaos to this game. It made me pay attention to the play patterns. Well executed.
