The visuals of this game are wonderful! I’m going to be honest, I suck at it haha but I really like the concept of a reverse connect-4 and you executed it brilliantly!

Can’t really think of how you would improve this, feels like a finished product already :]

Very unique idea for this jam. I really like this game. Gameplay simple and presentation good. Art looking good and sounds fitting.

A deceptively simple but tricky core puzzle mechanic. Excellent theming and presentation as well. Very well done :)

Perhaps the most mischievous of all monsters yet put to game.

A cool twist of the Connect 4 game! I'm really bad at Connect 4 so I didn't really do well in my attempts, but I did notice some kind of AI as they're pretty smart and don't just drop pieces in random. Really great game!

Thank you for playing! 

Our programmer, Dan Miller (dsmiller95), is very proud of his AI. I believe he spent a majority of the Game Jam weekend on it!

The idea is realy creative. The presentation is great. I had a board game like this where one player had to make a connect 4 (of any color) and the other wins if no connect 4 is done at the end of the game.

Maybe some additional constraints would be great since the game is realy easy to beat.

Thanks! Yea we definitely had a few ideas to expand/add complexity to the game loop, but ran up against the deadline, and didn't want to dilute how simple it was to understand. Maybe after the jam though!

Super creative take, and as others have said this was a lot more challenging than I anticipated. The artwork and animation is so well done, and great choice of audio to go along with it. I love how you accounted for instances where a column was full and the hands would automatically redirect to a different one.

It's very simple and really fun, I basically have no complaints. Great work!

simple premise, easy to grasp, but gets challenging quickly enough to keep me engaged!  Really cool concept!
