WOW! What an amazing entry to the jam! Not only are the puzzle aspects solid, the level of polish is unmatched. Clearly a contender for being in the top bracket of the jam. Very interesting take on the theme, with gameplay reminiscent of "Factorio", "Satisfactory", style games! I am blown away and inspired by what was accomplished with this entry! Thanks for sharing! P.S. I loved the devlog post about Taking your game jam game to full release. Appreciate the insight and best of luck with your gamedev endeavors!!

Wow, best game i have seen here so far. Such an unusual idea and astonishing presentation! Couldn't come up with more words for a game of such quality

Definitely one of the best game in jam. But i assume if 'IT' stage is still confusing for people who just finish the tutorial stages. The composite of 'T' is just too similiar to 'L' instictively!

This is such high quality for a jam game, I couldn't believe it but you literally have the video evidence...It's insanely good, love it. Simple mechanics, great take on the theme, lovely graphics... I literally was mindblown by this one. Well done !

Developer

Thank you!! Haha yes, we literally streamed the entire process of making this game from brainstorming to submission.

Honestly, nothing much to add to all the other comments. It's certainly reminiscent of Zachtronic's Games but different enough to not be derivative. Bending and joining letters is just such a good idea. It's slick, super satisfying to play and you actually managed to add juice to a puzzle game, which is amazing in and by itself. 

Amazing

I'dve enjoyed this as a regular full release, but I'm just gobsmacked this is a jam game. So polished and playable! Amazing work. Love the look, the gameplay loop and just even the little details like the feedbacks on joining the nodes. So nice.

Submitted

Still playing as it is fun and worth going back too. A little bit of a learning curve for me (Not surprising)  but now that I understand I will take it further (after I am done laughing at myself for how simple it is to play). Such a nice polish and look / feel.  Very original mechanics

Submitted

This is clearly one of the best games in the jam, Great work! 

If anything, the tutorial goes on a bit long, the game seemed like lots of fun from the get-go and I just wanted to get stuck in!

The art is amazing; everything from the UI to the factories makes the game fit together wonderfully.

Hard to believe this was made in just 48 hours. Amazing job, Star Garden Games.

Submitted

great game, like the user submitted levels idea.

This was so cool and so much fun! I love being able to keep playing it even after completing the levels by making my own words!

Submitted

I really enjoyed this game! Very interesting.

Very creative and original concept, love it !

This is such a good take on the factory builder genre, total shapez.io vibe here. Great work on interpreting the theme this year! I hope this one makes it to the video!

Submitted

Fantastic concept. I really enjoyed the feel and look, all very intuitive. Only struggled on the 'T', but the rest came naturally. I think this could be a very good educational game too. Also nice touch on the images on the blocks for completed words.

Submitted

Congrats! Well polished, very innovative game! In just 48 hours?? There are no words!

Submitted

Solid work! adore it.
