The game is great and the idea is very creative. it is like tetris but with numbers. Genius
Really cool game idea and execution as per usual ! You couldn't help but to make a leaderboard again... but now daily challenge ?! What's the next step, crossplatform multiplayer ? XD
You definitely have a lot of talent making games, I think you should think about getting paid for this ahah ! GG pour le jeu :)
Presentation looks perfect. Asking for my name to add a profile, very nice.
First I misunderstood the game, I initially thought that you had to make a correct equation. But later discovered you need to make the number go big, and this realization gave me more enjoyment. Also the art caught my eyes. My suggestion for improvement is the addition of an undo button, I got frustrated at pressing the keys on my keyboard and expected a different outcome, arrow up/arrow down specifically. Furthermore, I think the game need a bit of balancing and challenge, because the more you play, the more you realize that the winning strategy is to collect more numbers and the multiplication to get the highest score. Would like to see some punishment or restriction to do a bit more thinking than just doing. Non the less, I had a great experience on stream playing <3
A Ranked Daily mode is also a nice bonus!
Awesome stuff!
This is a uniquely literal take on the theme that I don't think I've seen anywhere else. It has a strong classic puzzle game charm to it and is just fun to play! The hold mechanic adds a lot to the strategy to the construction of formulas. Without it, I think success might be too dependent on the placement of numbers on the board. Great game!
Your game's concept is simple and very effective, and fun, and addictive... Congrats x)
Wow, I'm kind of in love with this one! It was really fun to try to strategize! Also, there's absolutely no shame in using an old, crusty game engine if you know how to work it. Great job!
As we say here, "the best soups are made in old pots" 😁✨
Awesome game! Don't be scared by the math, it's actually really fun!
It sure is math-flavored but not math-intensive. Glad I cut that pesky log₆ block from the scope 😂
Cursed Tetris lol!
The block storing mechanic is indeed inspired from tetris (but not quite the same). Thanks for playing!
Neat concept and its really fun to get lucky and score tens of millions of points!

Here's my best score!
Your score image didn't upload 😭 But yeah, I tried to maximize the potential for juicy dopamine-inducing high numbers, happy it works!
Despite warnings, I botched my daily ranking, not realizing you can only attempt it once 😅
The game explains itself without any need of a tutorial or such, which I always appreciate. And I think it plays really well. I was a bit confused about the lack of upwards movement, as I thought there's some intended leeway between where you are, and the edge of the screen. The ability to store a block for later really makes a difference though.
The only criticism I have is that dividing by 0 does not crash the game 😄
I WISH I thought of making something funky with the dividing by zero. One streamer suggested a 50/50 chance of getting +infnity or -infinity... that wouldn't have been fair, but fun for sure!
Yeah, I'm super happy with the storing mechanic, the fact this one move open 3 different usages (saving for later, clearing path, fetching below) and add a pinch of chaos to the otherwise static layout... makes my designer self proud 😁
Really fun game with a very satisfying game loop! The controls are snappy and it does not force you to think too intensely but just go with the vibe, which sometimes can be tough with number games. You struck a great balance. Cool idea to include a leaderboard.
For the first time since too many years, I tried allowing the players to move at their own pace and focus on the puzzle if they wish so. I'm happy it works for you! (I have to admit thinking about every single move in the Daily Seed for around 1min before committing)
Cool take on the theme! Nice math problem solving.
You are literally counting down! Very quick to pick up. once you figure out what you're doing.
Thanks for playing! Yeah, I'm super happy with the intuitiveness even without a tutorial. The basic math stuff sure makes this easy, speaking a language we all know a bit about 👍
The concept is very original and has much replayability. Also, impressive to have an online feature in a 4 day jam. Got top 15 daily on my first run ever, so I'd say it was a good feature ;)
Thanks! I planned on reusing my usual leaderboard backend stuff, but I hot-headedly decided to add the Daily Seed feature that still needed me to redo most of it during the jam 😂
Really cool concept! It's the first game of yours that I understood on the first try :D The sound design and visuals feels so polished and satisfying, and the daily runs are a nice addition for tryharders
.................. Thanks 😂😭😎
I'm super happy with the level of polish and the Daily Seed too, it all ended up working well!
