I love puzzle games, and this is definitely one of my favorite entries! >^<

Thank you!

Great puzzle game. took a second to figure out, but it was awesome. The colors could be a bit easier on the eyes. And the audio gets quite repetetive, but I played it all the way through, so the puzzles were definitely enjoyable enough to make up for any gripes. :) Had a lot of fun!

Thank you for your encouraging comments and for taking the time to play my game.

Thank you! I also had a great time playing your game!

Interesting concept, but mechanics and instructions could be improved to make gameplay more intuitive. I wouldn’t be able to play without going through the comments on this page. Also, the endgame condition is not clear—is there one? I played for a while, it seems endless? Good for you for making your own music.

Developer

I agree with the areas you pointed out for improvement. I'll be careful not to repeat the same mistakes in my next project. There are actually stages up to 9-3, but I realize it could be frustrating since players can't see their progress. Thank you for the feedback!

I couldn't figure it out.  I will have to try again sometime, perhaps reply to this with a little better example ?  perhaps a screen shot of what moves should look like?

So, here is how you do it:

Thank you !

Thanks that helped, tried again and was able to solve a few lines.  This is more of a challenge for me that I would think.  Works well and good job.  by the way, I would have chosen/preferred if the X was used to mark the true condition and O for the false, so perhaps that also added to my difficulty.  ;-)

Developer

You're right. It can be a bit confusing that the 'X' marks first when dragging. I think I was a bit too fixated on the 'XOXO' sequence! Thank you so much for your advice and for playing.

Submitted

The instructions are confusing at first - I suggest I have is have a red outline or a noise saying that it's wrong and/or have the "XOXO" mark reflect what was selective for example: red even number if you select on 4 reds you should get 4 x's instead of the same XOXO on every guess you make. Outside of that the game was a bit fun to play it reminded me of word searches; however, it did get a bit boring/stale after a while

Developer

That's good idea. I also feel like it needed a tutorial or better feedback. I'll make sure to apply this to my next project. Thank you!

How to play

HOW TO PLAY

Clear conditions are displayed on the left side of the screen.

Drag blocks with your mouse to mark them in "XOXO" style.

Mark incorrect blocks with 'X' and correct blocks with 'O' to clear the level!


Thank you!

i tried but when i drag blocks are marked for just a 0.2s then return to normal, i cant drag anything, Maybe it's a bug, maybe i just definitely dont know how to play 😅

Developer

I've added an example to the game description. Please check it out. Thank you!

Submitted

interesting concept. At first it took a bit to understand, but I got there in the end. Pretty interesting little game

Developer

Thank you for play!
