This is awesome! Very simple but appealing graphics and the game itself is super fun! Could be made into something big!

However, the "next level" or "previous level" buttons were maybe unnecessary? Could just be me though. Overall fantastic job!

Developer(+2)

Thank you and thanks for playing :) Those buttons are there for anyone that might need them. I personally find it frustrating in a game jam when I'm playing a good puzzler and get stuck in a single level and miss out on the rest of the game.

I just played your game for more than half an hour, what a well done game! I think you executed your level design marvelously & the graphics and music meshed well together, it was a fun & relaxing experience, so much so that I zoned out playing it for a while. Great job! 
If you could rate our game, that'd be swell! :P

Developer(+1)

Wow! I didn't event know it was possible to play for that long :) Thanks for playing :)

Hahahahah yeah, admittedly I was also working while playing, so that may contribute to my time, but I still enjoyed it :P

nice music and nice concept

Developer(+1)

Thanks :)

This was a very satisfying game to listen to, if that makes sense! The clicking, the energy-on sound effect, the subtle music, just all of it combined to make an almost hypnotic, soothing sort of game. The puzzles themselves were also quite satisfying, with and the pixel art and character designs were really charming. Overall a really solid game with a ton of polish, and an impressive amount of levels considering the 48hr limit! Awesome job!

By the way, we played your game on our stream tonight! 

Developer(+2)

Wow! Thanks for playing and streaming the game. It was really fun to watch you play and learn the game. I especially enjoyed hearing Japanese (my wife is Japanese and I am learning it) so it was cool to hear it and recognize it) :D

Submitted(+1)

This is a very solid and challenging puzzle game. I was impressed with the amount of content. It also felt like I was never stuck, which rarely happens to me in these games. Good job!

Developer(+1)

That's good to hear because that was one of our goals. To make it so that there wasn't just one way of solving the puzzle and allow players to be creative with their solutions

Submitted(+2)

Very good art, cute characters, awesome (not too difficult and not too easy) puzzles! I love the emotions of the bots when you connect them! :-O :-)

Developer(+1)

Thank you and thank you for playing :)

@Drums @ProdigalSonGames great game guys very enjoyable, very good sound design , controls felt nice and smooth could be a good mobile game :D loved it.

Developer(+2)

Thank you. That is our intent. Thanks for playing! :D

Really solid lil puzzler! Perfect amount of difficulty for my post-jam brain, had me scratching my head a bit later in. 

Developer(+1)

Nice :) Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+2)

This is awesome! Played all the way though to the end (though it's missing a win message so I thought it was glitched at first). Really dig the mechanic and aesthetics :)

Developer(+2)

Oh it is broken, sadly. It is missing a component to allow the level to run and there it soft-locks. :( Thanks for playing! (p.s. the Thank you message is there...if the level was playable lol)

Submitted(+1)

Oh no! Well the game was fun up until then :D

Submitted(+1)

Very nice! This was a lot of fun! Love the animations!

Developer(+1)

Thank you and thanks for playing :)

One of the best games so far!!! A lot of people had the same interpretation of the theme, but i think that yours takes the cake!! nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you and thanks for playing :)

Submitted(+1)

Made it to the end, I'm impressed with how much content the game has given the short deadline!

Developer(+1)

Nice! Congrats. Sorry about that final level and thanks for playing! :)

Submitted(+1)

I played most of the levels until the game stopped accepting input.  I think working around getting stuck to things is a cool way to interpret the theme.

Developer(+2)

Thanks! That means you made it to the final level which was accidentally broken during final build and it soft locks the game :( we didn't notice until after the jam ended (of course) thanks for playing

Submitted(+2)

I love the sound design on this, you guys did an amazing job with the presentation! Puzzles had just the right amount of difficulty too. My only issue is the originality, I've seen this game in different forms more times than I can count.

Developer(+1)

I totally get it and it is a risk that we knowingly took but we liked the simplicity of it and how easy it would be to explain (given the limited time we had - not talking about 48 hrs just personal life only allowing us a  shorter time than that) but we had hope we had added enough of our own unique spin on it to make it different. This is something we can improve on. Thanks for playing!

Very fun game, great progression for the difficulty. The art fits it really well.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing :)

Submitted(+1)

Great game! The puzzles were challenging but rewarding!

Developer(+1)

Thank you and thanks for playing

Submitted(+2)

Really good game! Great mechanics and graphcs and great music and atmosphere. How do you make so many puzzles!?

Developer(+2)

I think my designer order a 16" puzzle pie and took slices from it. lol :) Honestly, he surprises me too...I just put the code together and he makes the brain teasers :D Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+2)

There are very good puzzles and the graphics and the sound are awesome. But it was missing new mechanics(I played the half of the game)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I completely agreed and it is something we are looking into to see how we might expand on it. We wanted to focus on the core mechanic given our limited time with the jam to make sure it played well. :)

Submitted(+1)

Not really what I expected, but this game is absolutely great, found myself pushing farther and thinking one more level every level, nice job

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I am curious, what were you expecting? It might be something fun to add ;) Thanks for playing :D
