Ministrelli's Cardboard Circus30-4 was my high score.
It’s a simple idea that’s fun and works just fine, well done.

Math Is Hard12-2 was as high as I could get. The difficulty was well-balanced, you really have to earn that “great job” screen!
I was a little disappointed when I found out the AI was just RNG, but I don’t think I could beat an actual bot, so it’s okay for this game.
Either way, you nailed the chalkboard look of it! It even sounded like chalk. Nice work!

Marble DropNever thought I could enter a flow state in Tic Tac Toe before this game. Awesome!

Critical CountdownWow, didn’t realise tic tac toe would get hard so quickly. I hate time pressures :( Good take on the countdown theme, beautiful animations & I liked the art aesthetic as well, great work :)

FEED THE MACHINEFun and creative game! I enjoyed the hectic nature of trying to make good plays across six different boards. The best score I managed was 62 wins

Down to TimingIts a cool concept I'm not very good at this game though but I still like what your going for, It kinda like infinite tic tac toe, but Better lol I like the style too! Congratz!

Monkeying AroundVery simple concept, but the Game is really cool! I played it longer than I first thought xD

Emergency CenterWow, what a simple but so well executed concept, awesome stuff! The random plays that computer makes was a great design decision imo, having it not smart, awesome job!!

Please Dont Crash!This was a fun game! Its a pretty simple concept but the count down adds a nice level of urgency to the gameplay. You nailed the chalkboard aesthetic as well. I think one thing you can improve is your visual cues for when the boards are ready. Maybe it was just me, but I would forget/not see that another board was ready. I think there needs to be a bigger difference between the thinking state and the playing state.
Awesome job!

Chef Mike's Final StandHmm thats a good question. I think thats one of those things where you come up with maybe 2-3 different iterations and trial them separately with play testers. Then you’ll know which is best for bringing attention to the “thinking” boards. Color is a good place to start. Maybe a small particle effect like a sparkle would work too. Good luck!
