I like the concept. 

It gets my puzzle brain going, but  It's a shame that there is only ever one pattern. Once I figured out the trick it was easy to get it almost every time very quickly and if I didn't the powerups were there to help out, which is nice but makes it a little too easy in my opinion.

Thanks dude!! The reason is, I made this like in few hours because i ditched like 2 ideas in the beginning, lost almost all the hope that I will finish the game. The thing is, it was really hard for a lot of people to start off with, so I didnt bother adding anything after the 1 hour deadline extension was given, since didnt get any time for playtesting.

Great concept.

Also love the chill vibe, The only issue I have is the music stop randomly while playing.

Nice Work!

Developer

Yeah dude thats a bug XD. Didn't have time to fix that

Submitted

Bamboozled my brain. Very addicting and fun game. Great job!

Developer

Thanks dude!!!

I never came across this type of puzzle. I agree with the others that you don't really have the time to think about using power ups when you're focusing on the puzzle. But it was interesting.

Developer

Thanks dude!!! I didnt get any time to playtest it at all, so i was unaware of this problem. I think a tutorial would have helped, maybe.

Really loved the idea of the game, once I stopped relying on the tile-moving alone and started thinking more about the order of reveals the game just *clicked*, managed to get through to the end level after all :D

I think the timer running out is a very easy thing to miss at the minute, and the fact it resets all the way to level 9 was a slight hiccup in an otherwise very enjoyable playthough. I found it helpful to just immediately stack a few extra time power-ups at the start of each level but that didn't subtract from the experience.

Congratulations on a very well put-together project!

Thanks for the detailed feedback man!!! Yeah the overall project was built in like a day to be honest, I ditched like 2 ideas before and almost decided to not finish the game at all. Lost all motivation, until the final day when i decided that I had to do it. So that is the reason it doesnt have that much depth. But I am really happy it turned out to be something instead of nothing

Nice game. Interesting idea, and good art and audio. I was too focused on the puzzle so I forgot to use the powerups and ran out of time lol.

Developer

hahah thanks for playing dude!!!

Submitted

Can't remember I played something like this! Must have still been a child. So, this was a nice and refreshing experience. The UI is very smooth and clean. The SFX combined with the juice add a lot of feel to the game and the music has no reason to be so nice - either well picked or well created! Congratulations on such a well rounded submission!

Developer(+1)

Thanks man!! I drew the entire UI and it was super fun. The track is something that i played on the piano many many years ago and i just happened to find it in my pc laying around

Submitted

Gave me a sudoku like feeling at first but  the special skills and timer gave this game a completely different experience! love the uiux, had a very fun time playing :)

Developer

Thanks dude, its basically a different version of the 8 puzzle game (where you solve a simple jumbled picture)

Submitted

I was dragging for no reason lol I didnt realize you could just click. But very satisfying art and audio. Nice!

Developer(+1)

hahaha yep you don't really need to drag :) Thanks!!

Cool game. It took me a while to figure it out, and after that it became a bit of a rush to do all the moves in time. It seems like an interesting puzzle game.

Developer

That initial figuring out is quite weird I understand, hence i tried keeping it simple and easy to progress. 

Submitted(+1)

I’m not gonna lie bro first the game was quite difficult but then i saw the screen record of you solving the first level, and i used the same method on all the other levels and it became easy lol Cool game! i liked the powerups you could buy, added depth to the game. you could also avoid the OP swap tiles and play with honor xD

Developer(+2)

haha yes, the swap tiles is really OP, i didnt want to make it too hard cause getting the idea takes some time. 

Submitted(+1)

This was super fun, I liked the UI and the puzzles.

Developer (1 edit) (+2)

thanks fellow djent enjoyer :D, this idea took so much time to just figure out :)
