I had to quit at level 13, I'm not smart enough, lol. Lovely little puzzle game, fantastic art, and you have a full options menu! With multiple tabs! That's fantastic.
Have a wonderful day and good luck in the Jam!

This was a lovely, cozy little puzzle game. I felt like level 16 took a bit more precision than any other level. I struggled on it the most, but eventually got it. The sticky gears definitely like to float off into space lol very fun game overall

The Revenge of Mommy NatureA game about placing gears and having them roll on your gears with to a destination.
It's an interesting take on spin to win.
Art style fits. audio does although a little repetitive. A very relaxing game for some reason although can be monotonous when stuck or the audio loops too much

Contract JobMy favorite one I've rated so far. Great puzzles, very satisfying physics, beautiful artwork.

Spiral EnergyReally good game and good interpretation of the theme. A few levels were quite challenging, but I got there haha. Well done!

POPCORN BRAWL IV: Part OneBeat the whole thing just now. :D Took me longer than 5-10 minutes though haha.
That was really fun! I sorta cheesed the later levels, but I was thoroughly enjoying it. Wish the physics were a little more deterministic. Was rough to see things not play out exactly as it had before. Ultimately not too bad though.
Thanks for making it. :)

Core MechanicsA beautiful and emotional puzzle game with a unique clockwork concept, strong atmosphere, and charming presentation. The art, music, and melancholic story work really well together, making the experience memorable and engaging.

Torque ArenaThis game has a really unique vibe to it that reminds me of older flash puzzle games, it's incredibly charming and the visuals and concise story lend a lot to making it feel good. The music is also awesome. I did not get particularly far in the game, since the gear physics are a little janky and I'm not super puzzle brained but I think this game does everything it sets out to do really well! Lovely experience

About Time!This was just super! I'm not a big puzzle person but I found this engaging enough for me to keep going. I really loved the idea about the melancholy story too. Well done!!

POPCORN BRAWL IV: Part OneI beat all the levels! I had some trouble with 13 and 17.. but got it in the end. The one thing that gave me some trouble was the subtle inconsistency in the physics-based puzzles, sometimes I almost had a solution but had to wait multiple cycles for the beginning to work out the way I wanted before I could test tweaks to the end. But yes, it was fun :)

Cell SpinnerIt's fun at times but the inconsistent physics and lack of information given to the player (manually having to figure out how two gears interact with each other, for example whether they stick or not) can make playing frustrating. I do wish the gears were more different from each other than just the inside pattern but thats a small nitpick (since each gear had the same edges I assumed all of them would stick like the first one introduced). The levels involving having to throw the gear were the most fun to me, especially when I found ways to avoid using the sticky gears. The beginning art was also pretty good.

Condiment KingLovely game! I thought about gears for the theme, so glad to see someone doing something great with that idea! As others have said, I would play this if there were more levels. I got stuck on the level with the two solid bars and the cog had to move horizontally across it to the end. I got the cog in the tunnel, but it just stopped.
But this was a great game, and the audio and visuals were lovely too!
