Really cool game, fits the theme quite well, it also felt like i was learning something, which is cool. pluss the art is really nice.
I enjoyed playing this game, was trying first to just put the parts randomly till it said I can continue to the next level, but in the last levels I had to understand the logic otherwise I would not finish them hihi :) so I read the tutorial with more atention ;) And enjoyed figurying the inputs and outputs out :)) And as someone here in comments said I would too continue playing if it had even more levels :))) Good job for the ones you managed to create and in such a short time! I liked as well how the parts sticked to the grid, relaxing brain tingling game :)
Hey, thanks a lot for playing my game! I am really glad you enjoyed, and that you wished there are more levels. I might design some more ๐
It's fun!
Thank you!
Nice game, fits the theme quite well and has a good gameplay loop. If it had more levels i'd probably play it even longer.
Thank you, I am glad you liked the levels! I might make some more.
Excellent work! You should definitely keep working on this; it's a great game, I had a lot of fun playing it. I assure you of my 5/5 rating :)
Hey, thanks a lot for such a good review! I am happy you had fun. Some updates will be coming for sure.
one of the more polished physics based games i've seen in this jam! hope you keep developing it! Would recommend having a few more animations/a nicely highlighted placement grid as well as a tutorial about the parts.
Thanks for playing and for your recommendations! I will see how much further I will expand the game, but some updates are definitely coming after the jam is done. ๐
Excellent game and within the theme. Even a little educational.
Hey, thanks a lot! I am glad you find it educational, because physics shouldn't be a bogeyman ๐
We are drawing free body diagram with this one!!
Nice game, spent some time to get to know how it works! Had a great time solving the puzzles, the difficulty curves is just right! Maybe a little more item placing SFX or gear whirling noise could make it more immersive? Feels a bit empty after the bgm kept looping a few times.
Thank you for the feedback! I am pleased you had a great time playing it. Some updates to the game are definitely coming after the jam is done.
Great idea, emjoyed the game play
Thank you, I am happy you enjoyed the execution of my idea!
Really fun! I thought the level design was great as well! (ใ)ใ
Thank you, I am glad you find the game fun :)
An interesting mechanical puzzle game, reminds me of the Create Mod in Minecraft in someway
Thanks for playing! Now that you mention it, I can see similarities with it.
yay another cogs puzzle game!

I love this! It's challenging but not too difficult. managed to clear all the levels. Would gladly play more levels if there are. Well done!
Hey, thanks a lot! I would gladly make more levels ๐
Great game!
Audio's a bit loud, so a volume setting would be nice.
Other than that level 7 was really challenging and I loved it!
The pixel art looks good and the music is decent.
It's a bit hard to understand to me, that you can only connect a shaft of another direction if 2 gears are attached to each other. But that might have been my skill issue. The "debugger" on space really helped with that!
I would have expected for example that shaft down, gear, shaft right would also transfer. 1:1
Without having to do "shaft down, gear X, gear X, shaft right" for a 1:1
It's not a problem with the mechanic, just that I didn't have the feeling that it was introduced.
Thank you very much! I appreciate and agree with your feedback ๐
I took the time to play through all the levels! Using the change in gear rotation speeds as a core mechanic is super interesting, and I really love how the difficulty is balanced just right. One small suggestion: it would be great to have some sort of preview indicator when placing objects. I kept accidentally overwriting things I had already placed due to misclicks. Overall, it's an incredibly fun game! Looking forward to seeing more levels!
Thanks for playing, it means a lot! I appreciate the feedback because I had similar ideas as well. I was trying to steadily increase the difficulty so I am glad that you find it balanced.
Aside from a menu to adjust the music volume , I enjoyed this puzzle game very much! I am stuck at Level 8, but I am sure I'll figure it out soon enough. This was a really fun one, watching the gears turn was my favourite part :D
Hey, I am glad that you find it fun and that you enjoyed it! Thank you ๐
Fun puzzle game!
Two little things I would add:
Keep it up bro <3
Thanks a lot, I appreciate your feedback ๐ I agree, there are many ways to polish the game further
fun little puzzle game, great job, more levels and its gonna be perfect!
Thank you! I could make a lot more levels, it's just a matter of time haha
Really fun puzzle game! I'll admit I didn't fully grasp the goal at first and just played instinctively through the early levels, but I realized what the goal really was when I saw the inspect feature and it made sense after! A very good game, I had fun!
Hey, thank you for the nice words. I am glad you had fun!
That was so much fun! The UI layout was easy to navigate,
and it felt so satisfying when the gears started turning!
Also, personally, I really liked the eye-catching cover art. The background music is great, too!
Thanks a lot for such a good review - I appreciate it!
