Themes
I used a few, but they're a bit of a SPOILER.
(opposite day, player is replaced by ai, liberate, just one button, the floor is...)
Team
I mostly worked alone, but Nexusnecromance helped make music on the last few days.
Jam
I really enjoyed it! I got to work on an idea I had years ago, but only remembered recently. Unfortunately, I didn't remember it until halfway through the jam.

This screenshot tells how much I enjoyed this game
This is such a great entry! The puzzles were really clever and you really have to think outside the box to solve them. You incorporated a lot of variety which keeps the gameplay engaging and interesting. The artwork and little effects are fantastic too!
This was fun
Really creative, nice job! Would have been fun to use the pencil more.
Amazing little puzzle game, from the master of puzzles! Smart foreshadowing on a few rooms, and an absolutely nasty trick at the end, which will make you go “AHAAAAAAA” when you find that.
Graphics were simple, but cute and charming, I kinda wish we had more to do with the pencil and eraser.
Music and sfx are nice, that said, the repetitive nature of the sfx when the green clicks away at the 999 is too much for me.
Otherwise absolutely amazing entry!
This is so cool, love this kind of game, the puzzles were creative and there was a good sense of progress. Perfect length for a jam game, but I would totally play a longer version as well. The art was great and the music/sound effects were incorporated perfectly. Very well done
Holy cow what a clever game! And such juicy presentation.
I got stuck twice: At the first enter-three-digits puzzle, didn’t realize I’d be entering them left-to-right (was assuming it would be the order of travel, right-to-left). And then was completely stumped by the upside-down cursor puzzle, had to look in the comments to find the answer to that one!
Probly the best I’ve seen here so far, great work!
Fun game , I feel smart. : D
Green mouse is best mouse friend.
