I had fun with this game even though i was not familiar at all with the main inspiration ! My only complaint is that the colors were not very readable in some levels (like the city and the one just after), while the planet level was the easiest one in this regard !
Every level ended with a little stress since the opponent bot was very close, it was super nice. Congrats for the game !

How does your game fit the theme?
It is educational journey in to world of Scale showing how fast scale changes when multiplication factor is 30, and how few steps there are from 1 mm to Solar System

Comments
At some point we got tired making assets so quality went down somehow and we did not had time/energy to make/test variations of design (as we did with first levels we made) and had to stick with first design we make. (assets were made out of order, in case you wondering how last level end-up being nice in that case)
Very fun to play, was not familiar with how the original game is so I don't know if it is any different, but feels like solid version. The fun facts were very nice and a good visual change from level to level, only complaint is that the game is very confusing at the start, and the colors at the right aren't exactly the same sometimes, but overall really good game.
Happy you enjoyed it :)
Tiles on the right should match game board since same tiles are used in both cases. But crossed-out versions and pressed down versions of buttons on the right do have color difference to indicate state. But yeah... We porbably could make those buttons like twice bigger at least to be more readable.
That's a very creative game!
I must admit I spend the whole first game just anxiously waiting for choosing my opponent color and then filling the whole stamp lol
But once I got the idea for real I really liked it!
Plus, the comments about scale after matches add a neat touch to it
Nice game, good quality, did not find any bugs and is just a solid game!
It was a little confusing trying to figure out how the game works at the start but after I got the hang of it, the music got got me into the mood of doing a relaxing puzzle.
I think it was a good use of the prompt to go from "pixels" on a stamp to galaxies.
Great Job!
This game have a fun gameplay loop. I was trying to figure out a strategy to win the bot but lost almost every game.
Now this is nice, the gameplay is really satisfying plus the use of scale is very neat
I was definitely confused in the beginning but overall a very neat game
I loved seeing my colour cascade across the board. Well made game. The only thing I think I would improve on is adding maybe a little note that makes it more obvious that you need to click the squares on the right to play the game. Other than that, great job! :)
that was pretty enjoyable! simple but engaging. reminded me of othello once i realized what was going on, and i like the scaling concept and overall style of the thing!
I'd love to play with a smaller board size, or even an adjustable one will do me even better.
Overall it's both fun to play and educational at the same time!
Yeah, that is good idea, we would've done that if scaling by some fixed factor was not main idea. With adjustable board size amount of things represented should've been enormous and making assets for all those things was not on a table :D But yeah, you are giving me ideas for future augmentations now :D
A bit of fun! Reminds me of a lot of the puzzle games I'd play on Miniclip back in the day
The gameplay felt pretty slow, maybe 30x30 it's a really big board. I understand for what you're going here but with a small window the game is pretty difficult to see.
But, really liked the humor between phases. Good job!
