How does your game fit the theme?
"Knitting is a method for production of textile fabrics by interlacing yarn loops with loops of the same or other yarns." (Wikipedia) We know very little about knitting, but this assured us it is a viable theme. Also, the game is quite repetitive, as if in a loop.

Dopamine farm!

Thank you ♥

This is my first attempt at a game of this type.  Fun and challenging!

Developer

Thanks a lot, glad you liked it

This game is extremely creative and has an insane amount of depth, strategy, and metaprogression for a jam game. It was really fun trying to find broken combos to abuse and buying out every shop (getting a column of orange-boosted carbon fiber is crazy!!)

I softlocked myself a couple times by accidentally selling all my remaining yarn. Also, I only discovered one pattern (a column). A square pattern was alluded to, but I wish patterns were a little easier to discover.

Carbon fiber combos are great, I did an alternating blue and carbon one for lots of money

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, there is still a lot to improve and fix. The original idea was that you could buy permanent upgrades between runs such as new patterns and new needles, but unfortunately we ran out of time. Maybe next time :)
