Good puzzle! This game made me think hard.
Nice entry, really good game, really nice polish !
My brain is too small for this game :D However it was a very clever puzzle and overall a very polished experience. I appreciated having the clickable circles with the totals at the bottom of the screen, it was a nice touch and very useful.
A bit challenging for my taste, but I was a big fan of Hexic back in the day, so I like the core idea.
Cool puzzle, the main difficulty is finding the correct rotation of the whole puzzle, then the lines fall into place. I tried to do it in my head but I kept losing track so I brute forced it 19 over par :)
Thank you. I start with figuring out the middle row in my head, them rotate. Not a guaranteed optimal strategy, but often works.
This is so fun. I adore math puzzles like this and it really felt like just the right amount of tough, got through it in 5? moves I think. It's really pollished, and just feels good to play, little things like the sound effects where great.
Very polished though I could not complete the puzzle. I understand it, but I kept going back to square one. For reference, I never solved a rubix cube in my life :p
Good job, be sure to rate mine.
Thanks. I never solved Rubik’s cube either. This puzzle is much easier though, lol. I’d start with figuring out the middle row first.
This is great. Really hard but I managed to solve one. I think half of it was luck though.
Thank you. It does seem hard at first, but it really isn’t. You just need to figure out what the right strategy is. Start with finding a solution for the middle row—the rest tends to fall in place, more or less.
nice puzzle game
Ok I was able to finish it in 44 steps. I am really bad at these kinds of games. Overall really cool puzzle game.
Love the design and gameplay. The Halloween element was not obvious though.
Thank you. I’m pretty sure the “Halloween element” is not a requirement. The call was to create “something eerie or otherworldly”, and the theme has nothing to do with Halloween at all.
Fair enough! I had just assumed because it was in the title :)
The theme is "black and white", which you can interpret however you'd like. Just making your graphics black and white is certainly an approach, though keep in mind folks judge that as one of the criteria.
Nice smooth animations on the number puzzle!
I liked that the black-and-white became colored after solving the puzzle. The animations were smooth, and the tutorial images were of professional quality. Overall, the polish and quality were nice for a jam game.
