the puzzle design was great, however the puzzle curve was a bit weird especially towards the end, pretty great game nonetheless

Developer

Thank you so much for the comment!! Yeah we really wish we’d had more time to polish the progression and add more levels as well QAQ

Wow! This is a fun narrative puzzle. There's something for everyone here - plenty to strategize and think about, but not boring and has plenty of humor. A really good game, lots of levels

Developer

Nice game, had to think a lot more when more and more characters got introduced. Well made puzzles.

Omg I can't even.  This was so fun! Love the chess pieces-like movement especially and the different characters! This game was literally so well made. I am so jealous that you guys put such a strong group of people together for a team! Meanwhile I have to work solo for my game :(. Overall it was really well made, the only caveat perhaps is that it doesn't feel too challenging as most of the time the correct path is quite obvious. Still absolutely loved the game though!

Developer

Thanks for playing our game and the feedback on difficulty as well!! Finishing a gamejam solo is seriously impressive. Huge respect for anyone who manages to do that. And your game is really nice :)

Fun game! And a lot of "trick" options on the desk; I can't wait it to release more in the future 

Developer

Thanks for playing and the comment!!! xD

The theme and artwork was really good. It felt extremely polished. I wish there were more levels! I liked the ones you have so far but I didn't really feel challenged until the last 2. That's great pacing for a longer game though so great job!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and feedback!!! We'll definitely try adding more levels and keep polishing details in the future!!
