How does your game relate to the theme?
The concept is a series of images related to dreams, for example, a dream catcher. The idea is that dreams are hard to understand and you have to work to understand them. The mechanic was devised specifically for the jam.

The game looks awesome . I love puzzles, and I'd love to see lots of unique and varied levels in the future.

I'm working on a little game engine at the moment so I can try to combine different mechanics to give more variety in one game.

This is a cool game! I liked the puzzle mechanic it was very relaxing, good music choice! I also liked the old school cartoon style. The puzzles were very satisfying. The only thing is that it would have been cool to make it feel more rewarding? It was one puzzle after another, without any progress. If that's how you want it thats your choice, but you could fill it with a story, maybe a clue after every puzzle to get some sort of context? I know we didn't have enough time, but maybe if you want to make this game bigger and retouch it that would make it even greater. 

Developer

That's a nice idea, to put a story around it. I'd like to say I was going to do that but ran out of time.  That of course would be a lie -- I never gave it much thought :) I think I might give that a go.

Very interesting puzzle mechanics. I agree with other players that the ability to hold down the button can be useful. I don't really see how it fits with the theme.

The puzzle mechanic is actually a really interesting idea!

Developer

Thanks. I wasn't sure it was going to work.

I didnt understand the concept at first, but now I need more. Some images (the cloud one for instance) were diabolical

Cool puzzle idea. The background music makes me feel relaxed while playing. I wish I could hold down the arrow button to rotate multiple times so that I don't have to repeatedly tap the buttons.

Developer

Completely agree about holding the button down instead of tapping; just didn't get round to it :)

Boring at first but quickly becomes addictive.
