Very funny game, especially the masterpiece OST and beatbox sound effects :D
Obviously, some graphics adjustments would make the game even better, but not too many as the game would lose its funny feel and appeal. Plus, add some more levels! The puzzles were nice.
I noticed that clicking on multiple shapes without placing them places them all in the same place, maybe try making shapes selection reset the previously selected shape from the menu if it was not places.
Although the "music" was amazing, it can become repetitive and , I'd suggest to add player options to adjust it or mute it in the main menu (though muting it would be a capital sin), and maybe to also add more music tracks, different from level to level, maybe referencing the different shapes the level introduces.
Very funny puzzle game overall, with simple mechanics but a clever core concept, and obviously very on point theme interpretation!
Thank you for the comments. The graphics level was intentional as I kind of got discouraged after testing it that it wasn't much fun so spent what limited time I ended up having on trying different game options. Glad you enjoyed the puzzles; I was hoping for at least one where the "obvious" approach would actually be worse and from my testing, I think at least one works that way. Also thank you for the bug report. I thought I had fixed that but I might have gotten the first half for resetting but missed the other half of placing the next piece. Based on the comments from everyone, I'll also try to add a music volume slider; I didn't even think of a different song for different pieces, but that would be a cool idea!
Great concept & interpretation of the theme. Some really nice ideas to built on here - thank you so much for participating!
Thanks for trying my game!
Interesting concept
Thank you for trying the game!
Cool idea, though! The second level made repeat it many times to get 3 stars, but I made it. Original and good stuff :>
Thank you for playing it! Glad to see you got the three stars; as I was playtesting it to set the percentages for the stars, I thought I had gotten 3 stars in all levels, but then played again to verify the upload worked and couldn't get past 2 stars for the last level. Was afraid I screwed something up and made one of the levels impossible.
Fun idea for a puzzle game! Update graphics and you can push it on android store! Good job on that one. On the other hand the pressentation is lacking. The music and sound effects I find funny, but they are recorded in low quality, i could bearly understand the words. And although i like it i definetly can see how it can be annoying.
Congrats for making a game. Please checkout and rate our submission :) !
Thanks for the comments. Yeah, the music definitely isn't for everyone but I was running out of time to finish (as I felt bad leaving my wife to watch the twin 3-year-old girls on her own) so figured I would record something real quick. I also intentionally turned the volume down as I didn't want to hurt anyone's ears, but didn't have time to put a settings slider in to turn it back up.
a good way to use the 'expand' theme and good way to make a puzzle game.
but what kills the mood is the song, I don't like the song and had to mute it.
Thank you for the comment. Sorry you didn't care for the song. I've been trying lately to create my own singing rather than searching through the hundreds of music assets I own, but I completely understand if that style isn't for everyone.
I understand that, though having the music be 'twinkle twinkle little Star' with instructions for lyrics, it isn't really appealing and makes it seem that your target audience is under 3 years old. and having it on loop just makes it worse.
a much relaxing calm music would be much better, even if it means searching through hundreds of music assets, you would find the right one.
pretty fun puzzle game! The mechanics are extremely creative and it's a good interpretation of the theme.
Glad you enjoyed it. It wasn't quite what I initially planned, but that was because when I literally did all the math (making sure I had all the formulas correct), I realized my initial goal of "get 80% to earn three stars" was not actually mathematically possible. Thanks for trying it!
