Your Average rank is #89 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.

Very fun and polished. The art is super cute. The mechanism makes me think of visual scripting. Great job!

Really cool programming game ! I'm not proud of the way I arranged it but it works !  

Got stuck on the next level but the Art is Amazing, animations and transition are really cool ! 

I wish the "handles" on the different boxes were a bit bigger (kept deleting nodes instead of lines) but appart from that this is perfect !

Good job, such a cute programming game :D

Fun little puzzle game, reminds me of programming with visual scripting almost. I like the little detail of the finished product bouncing off the wall and landing in the perfect spot.

Fun game! I got stuck on a few levels, but ultimately beat all of them after enough brainpower was used. I think it could bee nice to add small tutorials to explain new blocks, even though they’re mostly self-explanatory. Good job!

Nothing like a little bit of good ol' math to train the brain

Very interesting puzzle. Unfortunately it ended too quickly.

Really good puzzle game that does a fantastic job teaching the concept of loops. There's so much attention to detail in how it's set up, from the pacing of puzzles to QOL features like being able to anchor wires in multiple places on the grid to keep things readable, it's really clear that a lot of care went into making the player's experience really smooth.

Art is lovely, with a really tightly defined style that matches the tone. SFX are a standout too, with lovely clicks and snaps as you configure your nodes and connections.

I'd love more puzzles, and some kind of measure for least nodes used/least computations could be really cool! A few more difficult puzzles could be nice too :)

There's a lot of really charming touches here - I particularly love that the final node in the chain is set up perfectly to drop the number straight into the slot, and that the numbers in the main menu can also be thrown about for no reason other than that it's fun :)

Great puzzle game. Loved that there are many options to pass a level. I used only one number in the last one. Was the confusion intentional? :D Also very nice art!

This was amazing experience! Best puzzle from this jam
