Excellent work, very addicting, gobbled it up start to finish.
The biggest criticism I can levy against this game is in its UI. I feel that some information is hidden that should be shown always, and the guide's textboxes always felt underemphasized, going away too quickly, blending in with the background, moving too much, etc. A bit tough to parse when that's your main tutorial. Maybe it could have used a bit more feedback, like clearer animation + some sound?
Other than that though, this is pretty much a perfect jam entry. Great aesthetic, fun gameplay, unique take on the theme. Music was relaxing and sound effects were satisfying. Great work.
