This is (not) a loop! Fun idea, maybe intruduce levels and/or difficulty modes (easy/hard, etc.) so that players can understand) learn the (not) loops better!

Extremely confused as to how I could make strategic, informed choices. Seemed incredibly random, lost the first time, then won without any idea as to how I won, even tho  the tutorial is very clear about how the game works. Also not clear how allowing a rule would help me prevent loops. The game is a very neat interpretation of the theme, but I think it should expose more informations to the player during a run, so that it could lead to more interesting choices (ie: showing a higher number of shapes/figures and how they're looping, telling the players how many ways to loop remain to be ruled out, etc).

I think it’s cool, some things seem a bit random though (for example the score… I get that I win when no loops are possible, but I don’t understand how the score is calculated).

Furthermore I think most times you just cycle away most rules and try to find some sort of paradox, and it kind of depends more on quick choices than logic thinking.

Therefore I personally would prefer this sort of as a puzzle game, in which you can for example choose 4 out of 10 rules and you see the bot can choose out of a limited set of the colours and patterns (which you see). Then you’d have to think carefully which rules to choose.

At any rate, I did enjoy it! The concept is great, the execution is nice to. I think overall you did a great job!

The game is really confusing for me but nice idea!
