Your average rank is #6 in GMTK 2025! Congrats!

Here is the link with all the rankings:

I felt bad that there is no average score, because some teams aimed for all categories, not just one. So I just scrapped the results page and made a table. I agree with "Mark" that "Overall" is questionable, but I still think "Average" is a valuable score, so I decided to share it.

super kek gioco davvero ben fatto.

Ottimo lavoro! bellissimo il loading screen l'Unica cosa che avrei messo è un ctrl+z perché può essere frustante a volte dover riiniziare da capo solo per un piccolo errore.

Complimenti!! At the beginning i thought that the game was a bit slow, but then I got instantly hooked. The level with a lot of holes was really hard, i had to do it twice. Music was perfectly fitting and i love the initial animation!

Submitted

Clever and cozy game)
It's funny that you can do 101% for level)

Very well thought and well made, especially the animations and displacement of yarn! Completed 101% twice :)

Submitted

Amazing game! I was really impressed by the visuals, especially the highlight to indicate which part of the yarn you’re colliding with (even when the other side is through a hole). The gameplay was really smooth in general and I had a great time with it.

I played through this on stream (video here), if you’re interested in watching someone’s playthrough of your game.

Brilliant game, super well made and a really cool concept.

Submitted

Absolutely hooked by the cozy aesthetic and those buttery-smooth animations—seriously impressive work! The yarn-laying mechanic is such a clever twist and looks gorgeous in 3D. The later puzzles hit just the right level of challenge, though a gentler introduction might help new players ease in. I did find it a bit tricky to judge tile heights at times, and noticed Level 5 stayed at 96% completion even after clearing every stitch. Overall, though, an outstanding game—well done!

Yeeeaaaah bello rivederti anche quest'anno nella GMTK game jam!

Il gioco mi è piaciuto veramente tanto, la grafica come sempre è mega cozy e soprattutto le animazioni sono mega fluide, veramente nice, mi fa impazzire poi lo spago a terra, veramente fatto bene! (tra l'altro come l'avete fatto? sono abbastanza curioso eheheh)

I livelli erano veramente difficili e fatii bene, magari avrei fatto un pacing un po' più lento all'inizio, giusto per far abiutare il player al gameplay, ma alla fine non è tutta questa meccanica complicata quindi ci sta, l'unica cosa che un po' mi confondeva era la tilemap, spesso non distinguevo la differenza di altezza tra diversi piani o se una via era accessibile o no, per il resto però gran bel gioco signori :D

Fantastic game!

Submitted

Great game, fun, good looking and the music is cool too.


Grandi Matthew e Haru questa la potete vincere.

Bug: anche dopo aver ottenuto il 100% in un livello (il livello 5 ) è bloccato al 96%.

Submitted

Best to have it on Browser too.

Submitted

Really great game! I managed to 100% all the puzzles and get the good ending. Somehow I got 101% on level 5?? I really like the optional challenge of covering the whole level.

Submitted

good thing i don't also have to un-tangle the yarn LOL. someone else mentioned this, but the only issue with this game is the few tiles which are slightly unclear. I love this game. wow

Submitted

very very nice game! good jobu mats!

Amazing game! My favorite of the jam so far!

The puzzles are incredibly satisfying, especially when you're aiming for 100% completion on the later levels. The visuals are very good, especially with the 3D-esque effect on the yarn being particularly impressive. It's honestly wild that this was made in gamemaker, hats off to the devs!

Also the plop of the yarn slipping into a hole is weirdly satisfying, a lovely little detail that adds so much charm.

Pros:

+ Very satisfying puzzles

+ Beautiful visuals, the yarn looks amazing

+ Great sound design

+ Strong level design with rewarding challenges

Cons:

- The tileset can be a bit unclear, especially in terms of depth perception. It’s a shame, because the rest of the game is so good.

- Minor nitpick: the resolution of the main menu doesn’t match the rest of the game, and it slightly triggers my OCD. 

All in all, these are small issues in an otherwise excellent game. Five stars across the board!
