I think this idea's quite good. Out of all the game's elements, I was confused by the 'turning arrow on a swivel' element the most. To me, I see an arrow pointing in a direction and expect to be pushed there, with the timer determining *which direction* the arrow is pointing. But no, as I understand it, the ball needs to roll over it as it hits 0 and also is pointing in the correct direction. This game was a nice time figuring out the puzzles, and a creative interpretation of this year's theme. Nice job.

The puzzle mechanics are good, but the UI could be improved to allow for faster execution and restarts.
I liked this! Its a great interpretation of the theme! I liked the music and visual a lot, took a little to understand some levels, but thats usual with puzzle gamed :D. Great job!
Took a bit to understand, but I can see this is really interesting puzzle game. I like how you incorporated the countdown as a main mechanic for all the puzzle objects to have an inherit timer for them.
Super clever puzzles and an overall comfy and well put together game. Fantastic work!
Did you mean for the number on the big stone to increase whenever you decrement the timers attached to the obstacles, and decrease when you increment them ? This would not happen when I played the game, so I got stucked at level 4... The idea is great and it would deserve you give it a little more time !
The big number decrements for every increment/decrement away from the initial numbers on small stones. So on the small stone if you if you either add or remove 2, the big stone reduces by 2, but if you undo your change, ie. you add one to a small stone, then remove it, the big counter goes -1 then +1 back to original state.
It's not super intuitive, I should have reserved more time to explain what's happening. Thank you for playing though, much appreciated!
Really unique little puzzle game! Took me a little bit to figure out what to do, but once I did it was pretty satisfying!
Great idea, very original. I really enjoyed it and the puzzles were crative, maybe more would be great but it was fun!
Well-designed levels—each one introduces something new, whether it's a mechanic or a different approach. For the visuals, try adding realistic shadowing to the ball to give it more depth
I love a diegetic HUD and menu!
So many countdowns to coordinate this is a great use of the theme ðŸ§
I am hard stuck on level 5, the ball coming from the top right keep disappearing and I can't tell if it's from the first or second spike I can't seem to get it thru. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong and I'll come back tomorrow to continue playing, your game is fun!
Nice job!
