How did you implement the Theme?
you're decorating a christmas tree with musical lights
How did you add the Special Object?
the lights play a bell sound, specially created for the jam :)

Here's my playthrough of your game! It's at the beginning of this video.
thanks for playing it through!! this was so fun to watch :))
This was such a cool game to play! I also really loved the ending tune being jingle bells!
thank you for playing through to the end!! i'm glad you appreciated that, it took a while to design the constraints to make jingle bells without it being too immediately obvious lmao
Simple but well-made game! I love how you get to make your own music using the rules given to the player.
thanks so much! that's exactly what we were going for. i wish we could have made it a little more expressive while still being satisfying as a puzzle game but that's a hard balance to strike, and i'm very happy with how it ended up given the limited time :))
Great little game! A lot of coding work behind i guess. Good job
thank you! indeed there was, i see your game is unity and ours is godot but you can feel free to have a look at how we implemented it on github if you're curious :)) https://github.com/Samiser/christmas-tree-decorator/
It's a very simple, but functional game
thanks so much! we defo wanted to keep things simple so just tried to keep it constrained but execute it well
Awesome little game. It's like a 'christmas master mind' game. Love the combination of logic puzzles and musicality. This can't have been an easy programming task, good work!
thank you so much, that's exactly what we were going for!! it was an interesting challenge, the code is actually all on github if you're curious. the constraints were implemented with an abstract class (new godot 4.5 feature!) where each subclass defined the constraints and the description text, then it was just a matter of creating arrays of constraints for each puzzle which defo made creating the puzzles a bit easier.

This is so cool I love this concept so much! It's so creative. A "free-play" kinda option where you can select a tree of a fixed size and put whatever notes you want could be really cool
totally agree!! i had that down as something to add if we had time but ran out of time to do it sadly. that and the ability to export/import tree configurations so they could be shared but alas, we didn't end up having that much time to work on it sadly. really glad you liked it, thanks so much! :))
I love the concept! I would add a skip or sped up option though. That way I can test the pattern faster
thank you so much! yea getting the speed right was tricky, we were aiming for something for a bit more chill but that makes sense, thanks for the feedback :))
