This game has a really beautiful and atmospheric visual style. The overall vibe feels very pleasant and memorable:) You did a great job.

You made a very addictive game. Although the enemy doesn’t behave completely mirrored, I really enjoyed your game :)

Thanks for the kind words :)

About the visuals: if you mean the cover art and the battle scene background, those were AI-generated. I only adjusted the brightness, reduced the palette to 32 colors, fixed the witches faces, hands, and legs on the cover, and cleaned up artifacts. If you mean the enemy sprites, the base, the witches, the grimoires, and the projectiles - I drew all of those completely myself in Aseprite. That took around 15 hours, including the simple animations. If you mean the base explosion animation when its HP reaches 0, that one comes from a free asset. I’ll add proper credit links for the sounds and that animation after the jam. When I created the page, I was extremely tired and honestly just forgot to do it. As for the basic attacks, right now they simply deal damage. I originally wanted the icicles to slow enemies and the fireballs to deal AoE damage, but I had to cut those ideas because of time constraints - along with many others :)

A cute and relaxing puzzle game. The symmetry theme and mirrored mechanics are fully realized and work very well. The visuals are simple, but pleasant and clean. The overall presentation is solid, and the concept is clear from the start. Puzzle games are not usually my favorite genre, so it started to feel repetitive for me after a while, but it remained enjoyable and never frustrating. Overall, a polished and well-made jam entry.

This game has a really cool concept and an excellent use of both the theme and the prerequisite. The visuals are good - I’d even say very good. My main issue was readability. Because of the perspective and the placement of the turntable, it was sometimes hard to predict where the mice would end up. You can walk closer to check how much space is left, but after getting killed by a mousetrap once, I stopped taking that risk :) The controls also felt a bit uncomfortable for this type of puzzle game. Overall, a creative and well-made entry.
