Wow, wow, wow! Blown away by the creativity here. Such an fun idea and a breath of fresh air. So glad you participated and that we got to play your game. Love the tile checking after the timer goes off. SO many fun little mechanics.

Sorry about that! Use the Z key to skip text! The controls are displayed under the game, it's made for Gameboy so it's a bit awkward.
Thanks I gave it another go and had a great time. The music is engaging, really adds to the rush to finish the drawing. I didn’t notice at first that the rectangular block had only 2 states and I was trying to rotate it until it filled the left side instead of the right. I think that’s the only shape that can draw differently depending where your cursor is inside the cell. Did you consider making that behave like the others and rotate twice to fill the opposite side of the cell instead? Great entry, I quite enjoyed this!
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it
My original thinking was to make the triangle also work by pressing in a certain corner of the tile, but it was really fiddly. The rectangle was much less fiddly, so I left it. I also chose not to make the rectangle rotate to all 4 positions because I thought it would be confusing and hard to show the player, but it is confusing both ways, so I am rethinking the rectangle for future versions. Thank you for the feedback!

Thank you for the feedback! It sounds like maybe if the brush wasn't so free and instead clicked between tiles, it might be a bit easier?
Thank you for playing though, I'm glad you had fun!

I understand that, yeah. I think I will make a second version of this game that has a variety or difficulties, timer length and canvas sizes so that anyone can enjoy it! Thank you for playing!

You're right! I forgot about mobile players! In the GameBoy files it says A and B, I should probably make it say "A(z)" and "B(x)".
Yeah, I realise it is very hard for new players. I can do it super fast cause I played it for hours while testing it.
I'm glad you liked it, we had similar fundamental ideas about making an art game, but we took it in different directions! To place half tiles, I have to check the exact pixel location of the brush, rather than just the general tile.

Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it! 4570 is a great score, it seems like most people only get past the first sketch. My highscore in the page screenshots is 6380.
But if you want a really highscore to beat when you come back to it, I managed to get 15160 (with a lot of luck) once! Let me know if you do!

Yeah I'm thinking of making another version that starts with a smaller and easier canvas size. As the developer I have played and tested it so much, I find it really easy, but it's clear that isn't how most people experience it. Thank you for playing!
