I enjoyed this submission. A simple concept that is well presented, with good use of music and sound effects.

Enjoyable and fits the theme very well, I did ran out of patience though…
Other than that, it kind of doesn’t feel right that the game doesn’t use up the whole screen and that it doesn’t recognize mousepad taps unless if you click it hard enough.
Yes, unfortunately, GameMaker’s capabilities of doing “full screen” in the html5 runtime are somewhat limited. i need to resize by hand when i detect window size change. and as everybody has different height of windows taskbar or browser-tabs (favorite bar or not) i am a bit limited in resizing when i want to keep the aspect ratio.
If you play on mobile, the button clicks need to be launched via double-tap. not sure about pad-tapping, i don’t own one
fun game. the whole animation is great, levels are going so smoothly.
they are premade - a bit math for the light-patterns (i know, how long u must wait to get through)
in 3 hours there was not enough time to develop a dynamic level generation algorithm that also invents a pattern that is always solvable.
it’s a coding experiment, where i now have a base at hand – if i want to reuse this at some point in the future (maybe as a minigame in some bigger project), i can come back to the code of this submission.
tbh, that’s what i do with all my trijam-submissions (it’s my 8th now i believe) – they all have the potential to become a minigame in a big project one day – some of them might even be doable standalone, maybe as a mobile game.
Very nice! Good amount of polish. Love the music! I got to the garage!
