Theme implementation
The slime can only dash in the direction the needle points. The player must rotate it, manage thread, and plan each move
Special Object addition
The needle is the main mechanic: it controls movement direction, uses thread, patches tears, and connects to portals

Good game! Clean visuals, very polished and good implementation of the theme and special object
Good job. Loved the game.
Maybe would be better to let player rotate how he wants and only count stitch as an action? Great job!
Great work! The gameplay is really cool and the visuals are also really good! Really want to see more difficult levels!
This is very great! Theme and Special Object is well implemented. Gameplay is really fun and well polished (I completed all levels). Very great game!
Amazing work!! The game is extremely well polished and the levels are satisfying to figure out.
Thank you!! I’m so happy you liked it! Making the levels satisfying was one of my main goals, so this means a lot. Glad the polish came through too!
It's all so good! The music, interactive UI, the gameplay, gradually teaching how to play... I will be able to learn so much just from analyzing this one game. Really well done!
Thank you so much!! This honestly means a lot :)
I’m really happy you noticed the gradual teaching and UI stuff - I spent a lot of time trying to make the game easy to understand without too much explaining. I’m also super glad the music and gameplay worked for you! Your comment really made my day
I really liked how you implemented the theme. The gameplay reminded me of this mobile game called Tomb Of The Mask. It definitely gives fun mobile game vibes and would love to see the idea fully fleshed out.
