Reminds me of "Keep talking and nobody explodes", also there directions sometimes works in strange ways (here is intended, there is due to your friend not being super clear).
Is very nice and very funny! I think that there are some inconsistencies or strange patterns with the rules (for example rules which say "all odd rules do not apply" and are in an odd spot gets a bit confusing) but I think is totally fine in a jam scenario!
Very fun game with a flexible rules system! This gets complicated very fast which makes for very exciting short term gameplay!
Well done! :)
Great game. The rules sometimes got too tangled that there might be a bug but I had “Even numbered rules do not apply” and an even numbered rule was “Do not cut odd wires” but I wasn’t supposed to cut a blue wire (there was also “cut all blues” and “cut in row B” which was valid). I also like the time based rules and that many contradiction were accounted for and the man on the walkie talkie fixes it. Got to 4th place (so far).
Attaboy!
really tickle my brain while playing this. the pattern colour sometimes got me thinking twice
I was soo lost until I read the other comment where you explained the way the rules interact. You should put that in the description of the itch page. Even if you ran out of time to explain in-game, it would have to been good to color code the rules of the same ‘category’ so its easier to spot. Despite the flaws, I enjoyed it (although I still suck and couldn’t get past 8 rounds :p).
Fun little game :)
very good execution!
yo love that artstyle what a great game! GGs on that :)
Dude, this was fun! But sometimes i didnt understand rules, like a "odd wires", but anyway gj =D
Amazing game! I love Keep Talking and nobody explodes, and this is pretty much that only as a single player game. Great job, also with simulating the appropriate level of confusion xD
Sadly, I don't think the leaderboard worked for me? My score of 9 was not there ...
Thank you for the review! Yeah, your score is not in the leaderboard, did you press the submit button? It should've changed to "submitted!" if the result was uploaded succesfully, maybe there was some connection error.
The artwork was incredible 10/10. Having a leaderboard and this level of polish in a 4 day jam is very impressive. The mechanics were fun and challenging. Got pretty difficult when they started stacking up and I hadn't seen a powerup in a while :))
Very nice. It just got a bit confusing when the rules contradicted each other, it wasn’t entirely clear if they should be combined with an
andor anor.Managed to get myself to 3rd in the leaderboard though so happy about that!
The emergency ones were fun because I then had to go back to what I was doing before.
Thank you! The rules from different categories combine using AND, so for example if you have rules cut red and cut star pattern, only red wires with star pattern would qualify for both of them. Rules from one category combine with each other using OR, so if you have cut red and cut blue, then both blue wires and red wires would qualify. It ended up more confusing than we thought it would be and probably shoul've explained it in the tutorial :)
so fun but i cant think anymore. such a sick concept :)
I got 12, Im in 3rd place now. fun game, I feel like this could be a cool jackbox game.
Cool idea for a game! Sometimes the rules contradict each other or don't work but other than that it was pretty fun
Thank you! Yeah, we could've used more time for balancing and fixing all contradictions. We did our best :)
Really polished experience and the whole loop is satisfying! Great work mate
I know it's a bomb defusal game but it feels like a simon says game, I like it!
This game is probably a nightmare to all color blind people. We appologize for that.
