I really liked this game. The mechanic was super interesting and I loved the puzzles you were able to create. Also, you managed to make the room sliding *feel* really satisfying!

This is easily the best game in the jam!
Please make a post-jam version for it, I would love to see more levels and see this turn into a full game!

Shadow TwinLoved your art style and music! The main mechanic is really cool, but I would have liked to see more difficult levels. A lot of the time you'd have enemies, but they would die off instantly due to spikes. Would have loved to see more of the X room levels since that restrained the player's movement while also still giving them the freedom to swap tiles.
Overall great job!

Monster MatchPhenomenal design on this one. I did skip one level but the overall experience was amazing. Honestly don't really have complaints. I love how only certain arrows were usable in levels. It gives a good hint as to what the player is supposed to do, as opposed to all the arrows being present and players just getting stumped and moving things randomly. Graphics were great and the OST is amazing lol. Really great job on this. To you and your team

PaddlegroundI honestly loved this so much, the art style and music were fantastic, the room-mechanic was intuitive, and the puzzles were very clever. Fantastic job! <3

Shadow TwinA fantastic "little" puzzler. The room-shifting mechanic is fun and challenging, and fits the theme perfectly. My only complaint is that it is a little hard to tell which rooms will line up, and behavior at the edges (especially up/down) is a little unpredictable. You should make this into a mobile game :)

Nirengeki: Double StrikeThis has been my favorite submission for the jam so far! Really polished little game! Super clever idea for a puzzle game, the visuals, the little bit of dust that comes after you move the rooms around, the sound, the music even the little built in tutorial with the skeletons walking into the spikes was a real stroke of genius! Fantastic work!
