How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
The game is about Tangram puzzle that are animated but the pieces are out of sync with one another. The goal is to freeze them in time in order to resync them.
In order to do so there is also a factory whistle that stops the machine so you can resync them more precisely

Incredible art, idea and sound design!
This is probably the most unique game I've seen so far! I love the theming, the gameplay is fun, visuals are great. I could see this becoming a puzzle narrative game with a slightly spooky vibe. Wonderful job!
This is one of the most innovative games i've played yet!
The art and vibes are also insane
Very innovative! It looks so interesting, loved the visuals
Thanks for the game. Loved the animation especially. Cool concept.
Amazing! I love the feeling of not knowing what I’m merging in the puzzle, and then figuring it out little by little as I merge them.

Great art and gameplay mechanic. After figuring out the movement system, it is pretty fun. A small exploit: I was able to rapidly click the wheel to solve the cat and mouse. Great game!
everything is wonderful, the animation is smooth and satifying, puzzles are fun to do. the silhouette type ish visual is amazing. I wish there were more levels
Truly Amazing game🔥, I've never played a game like this, the puzzles are amazing, the game mechanics is a brilliant idea and the execution is top level! it's incredible that you made this masterpiece in such short time!!
This is incredible. My girlfriend says "peak" lol. Truly a super unique puzzle game and I would have 1000% kept playing if there were more. Super impressive, no criticism that I could give you! Again fantastic job!
Such a unique concept. I really like it!
Amazing game, very poetic and satisfying! Everything fits well together and instantly draws you into the world. If I were to nitpick, I had a bit of trouble figuring out where the last part of the boat was supposed to go. I feel like the walking dude would have been more intuitive for the tutorial. Also, while using the lever to select the part is immersive in the long run, it would probably be less frustrating to simply be able to click on the parts to select them. But overall one of the best games of the jam, the last level was beautiful !
As a big fan of Tangram when I was younger, I really enjoyed this game. I love the idea of trying to understand what happened and reconstructing a scene by stopping and restarting time. Sometimes it was a bit hard to figure out exactly where some pieces should go, but overall it’s great. The idea is awesome, the execution is great, and the atmosphere is really nice. Nothing to complain about, GG!
this is so much fun. Trying to imagine the final object just by following the movement of the different pieces … I will get lost in this! Fantastic work!
Amazing, I love everything about this game, so creative good job!!!
Wow the animations here are really well done, love the art overall. I think I almost never held the gear during the regular game, I basically played the whole thing on freeze. And the last level had quite a bit of trial-and-error until I understood what the image really was (I often tried to line up two pieces, and found something else stuck instead). I wanted a reference image, but I see how that would maybe take too much away.
In any case, very well-done!
What a beautiful and creative game! I'm so impressed by the animations you've made, the cat one looks super fluid and dynamic. I love the colour scheme and the sound effects. The aesthetic reminds me a bit of INSIDE and LIMBO.
Thank you so much. You couldn't please me more by mentionning those games, real masterpiece to my eyes
Such a creative idea, I don't know how you came up with it. Great job!
Thanks! It's an animation technique I used to practice years ago. I was curious to see what it would look like when it's disynchronised.
I like the art direction very much, I think the biggest problem for me is that it feels a bit pointless to click the wheel why other pices are running as it's much easier to just freeze all the piceces and move a single piece, but overall very good work.
I agree. A lot of the gameplay kind of came up as I was designing the game to correct some gameplay flaws. I felt it was too hard by just freezing the pieces so I added this feature (but it kinda made it too easy). I think it would have made more sense if there were more animations with two character since you would have more difficulties putting them together. I'll try this maybe someday! Thanks a lot for the feedback!
