I think it's cool you managed to get so much content out of just a few mechanics. The difficulty ramps up very quickly, but the mechanics are very easy to get to grips with!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I think gameplay wise one of my only concerns would be that some levels take a very long time, or look very intimidating from the beginning which may dissuade people from playing to completion. This is always something to be wary of in single-screen puzzles. Especially where failure resets the whole thing. My own entry is guilty of this sometimes as well.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I think you focused on the right things, and 'did what you could' with the presentation to give it a neat aesthetic despite obviously being very simple. Always the wise choice if you're not artistically confident.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Good stuff!"},{"author_name":"Andrew Adams","author_uid":"20321","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 9:58pm","epoch":1409003580,"text":"Why you no Mac?"},{"author_name":"Pesty","author_uid":"41758","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 10:04pm","epoch":1409003940,"text":"I have no mac of my own for testing i'm afraid, sorry"},{"author_name":"Jellycakes","author_uid":"13474","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 10:19pm","epoch":1409004840,"text":"Pretty cool, nice mechanic and I liked the meaning behind some of the gameplay.

The black and white style is intersting but the graphics and the font could be maybe better to create a more trendy look, more classic.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Actually some level are maybe too scary for a free game, even if there is a solution...\r<br\/>\r<br\/>At the end i'm always impressed by puzzle design and here it's well done even with hard puzzle... the hardest to design ;)"},{"author_name":"Konrad Zegis","author_uid":"32927","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 11:32pm","epoch":1409009220,"text":"Great submission!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I really appreciate your level design - I once created puzzle game and 99% of comments was &quot;it's too easy&quot;, while difficulty in yours scale up nicely."},{"author_name":"KuGrou","author_uid":"32991","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 2:36am","epoch":1409020260,"text":"Good job, I like that it feels like there's a good variety to the puzzles using the simple mechanics."},{"author_name":"MattThePie","author_uid":"42363","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 5:37pm","epoch":1409074320,"text":"Really clever puzzles, not too keen on the story though.."},{"author_name":"danidre14","author_uid":"32791","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 3:19pm","epoch":1409238840,"text":"It's great!
