Very cool game, a bit confusing at first though.

This is mechanically the most solid thing I've played in the jam. It just works. Left click fills, right click marks an X, the score climbs, the 3 lives stay visible, no bugs, no freezing. I got to 30 score and 30 money without losing a life.

Turning a nonogram into a score race is genuinely creative and fits the theme like a glove, because you don't just want to solve it, you want to solve it fast and expensive. The economy is real decision making too: S to reveal an extra block at the start of each board for 250, R for a random block at 500, M to trade 3300 score for multipliers. That's a good set of tradeoffs. The handwritten white on black font gives it a scratch pad feel that suits it.

My one real complaint is the packaging. The title screen is basically a black rectangle with two small grey buttons in the right corner, no title, no game name, nothing. It took me a moment to realise that was the menu, and it gives a bad first impression of a game that's actually great. A title and a bit of art would change how many people stick around.

Two smaller ones: opening straight into a 15x15 on Stage 1 is intimidating, a 5x5 warm up would smooth the entry a lot, and there's no indication of which rows or columns you've already completed.

As an introduction to nonograms, it was either quite difficult or I'm really bad at nonograms XD

I like the particles, especially upon clearing a row. Great work

Not really sure what the goal is or how to figure out the puzzle. I just clicked until 3 red x's came up. I didn't really understand it. Maybe a how to play screen would be really good.

I like the presentation of this in some parts , could have done with some sounds an the white background wasn't pleasant on the eyeballs
