This feels very polished. The gameplay is well explained, and introduced step by step. I could see this becoming a full game.
Thank you very much!
Nice bright colored graphics and adequate gameplay, congratulations!
Thank you!
Wow! These are super cool puzzle designs with a great choice of music and visuals! please extend this into a full game. I'm looking forward to playing more!
Thank you!
Neat little puzzle game. The visuals are great too. Really good submission!
Thank you!
Such a fun game! I loved the neon visuals and the juices are spot on. I especially liked the warp effect whose strength depends on the amount you traverse with the characters.
Level designs and the variety they provide to the simple mechanics are impressive too. Diffuculty is also handled well for me because i like more harder puzzle games, i also like puzzle games where you can solve it by thinking backwards which you can do it well in this game.
Some little issues i can give feedback on is on larger levels like the third, the glow for tiles felt too much and the warp effect became kind of annoying because the amount you traverse in one move is larger than other levels. Also there was some little bugs where i could push one character out of the level with another.
Overall a really enjoyable game with clever designs and cool visuals, great job!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I think after the jam, I can expand the options menu for disabling and enabling the chromatic aberration if it gets too annoying. As for pushing out of the level, I'm aware of those; I just didn't have the time to fix them since other things were more important (they were edge cases anyway). I probably will update the game after the jam to fix these issues.
This was a lot of fun, I adore the esthetic! Such a good vibe!
Thank you!
Wow the neon art style of this game is just so amazing to look at. The music/sfx are amazing to listen to as well. A unique idea for a puzzle game that made me feel pretty smart trying to figure out. Overall you did really amazing work on this! Excited to see where it goes from here!
Thank you so much!
What an awesome game. Well thought-out, and very well-executed. Loved the presentation and the interpretation of the theme. I had a lot of fun with this one.
Thank you!
The juicing of this game is really cool ! It is very polished, I am in awe
Thank you!
simple but great, I always love it when visuals are in sync with audio!
Thank you!
This game is really well made, I enjoyed it a lot! The visuals are beautiful, and the music supports the game extremely well. The puzzles were fun to solve as well, and I really enjoyed the game design! I can see this being a full game with an achievement system that people can try and do based on the number of moves it takes to solve the puzzle. Amazing game, and definitely underrated!
Thank you so much! I most likely will expand this game after the jam.
very nice game, the effects and the sounds fit so well, the 3 characters level was SO hard
Thank you! Which 3 character level though? There are multiple with 3 characters
Also, you can always go to level select to skip the level!
the first level that introduces 3 characters, and I DIDNT KNOW I COULD SKIP XD
It's hard having to think about the 3 characters but it's a good game!
Thank you! I would appreciate a rating :)
Oh I'm so sorry I forgot to rate you.. Thanks for reminding me!
I really like the art and the game feel, it's great fun to play! Having multiple characters you control really steps up the challenge of a classic puzzle mechanic, great job! :D
Thank you! I'm glad you like that mechanic!
the visual is beautiful!
Thank you!
One of the most polished games I've seen! The visuals and music matched together so well! Could definitely see this becoming a full release
Thank you!
This is definitely in my top 5. The presentation with both music and visuals is so good. Difficulty level feels perfect to me. The win effect with colors spreading out is so satisfying! Thanks a lot for making this!
Thank you for playing!
Beautiful design and music, loved the gameplay 5/5
Thank you!
challenging and fun with a lot of visual polish! nice!
Thank you very much!
Really fun puzzle game, does well to incorporate the theme as a key gameplay element
Thank you!
