I had some difficulty picking up a piece once where I think it overlapped badly wiht the piece under it or some such. The idea of throwing ever more pieces a the player is pretty neat and who doesn't love picture puzzles. impressive result for training Defold!
Second game from this jam I completed.
There is a reason physical jigsaw puzzles are so popular :)

Such a simple, but original take on the theme! Perfect for when you’re looking for some zen time.
Love the concept - "every piece you fit, two more appear" is such a clean, literal take on chain reaction, and it naturally ramps up difficulty exactly as the jam description promises. I did have real trouble with the drag interaction; slow drags seemed to pan the camera instead of grabbing a piece, and only a quick decisive drag actually picked one up. Once I got the gesture right the pieces snapped together nicely! Worth polishing the pickup feel so more players get to see the escalation.
Thanks for the detailed feedback! Yeah, I 100% agree player input is quite rough around the edges, once I have more time I'll try to improve it a bit. Thank you for trying it out :)
It's a very classical game.
Half-man, half-frog comes together to a meditative half-lecture, half-music. 🥰
