NIce game! Fits the theme interestingly and perfectly. I like the idea with the mirrors that make new colors a lot, really creative. 

The bad thing is that either my audio didn´t work or you forgot to add it, didn´t hear anything.

Very clever idea with lots of surprisingly deep puzzling. I like the minimalist aesthetic. Well done!

Really nice take on the theme, mirror mechanic is a really cool concept. A bit of sound would have been nice, but there's only so much you can do in a short time period. Also I think I ran into a bug on level 12 where if I press reset it sends me back to level 11 instead, but pretty minor all things considered. Nice Work!

Thank you a lot, I will fix that bug and add some relaxing piano music. Thank you so much for playing the game ☺️

A simple but beautiful game. I greatly enjoyed the puzzle mechanics behind this, as well as the progressive challenge between each level. Feedback/critique:

  • Graphics: A bit simple. What is there is very effective, though I feel that the UI could have been polished up a bit more; as it is, it is currently very plain. Consider background art, having completed pictures take the spot of the plain gray blocks, etc. However, like I said, I can’t complain too much - everything worked very well together.
  • UX: Perhaps telling the player to choose block one would have been good in the beginning, so that they know that’s where the tutorial is. That said, I’m happy that there was a tutorial. The logic of the game is a bit difficult to figure out at first, but I think that is the whole point of the game, so this isn’t a ding.
  • Sound/Music: I would have considered some muted/low-key sounds for placing mirrors, feedback for dropping off blocks, selecting levels, etc. Maybe some relaxing music to go with this. I think that adding that would have added just a bit of polish to your game that would have carried it over the edge.

Overall, I think this was particularly well done. Good job with this! I hope to see your work in future jams!
