A nice simple and well executed game, only criticism is that I found it hard to tell which had been clicked, and needed some feedback when I did click on one.

I can imagine kids playing this with Passion :) didn't get past level11. Android version works just fine.

Cute game and nicely executed :). Like already mentioned, it could do with some more distinct visual and audible feedback (perhaps removing the tiles completely when tapped)?

Aww, can't play on windows :(
Looks cute, and the comments seem to think so too.

Fun, simple, and gets hard fast! If you plan on adding to it, support for a horizontal mode (phone turned on its side) could be useful.

Its a fun little game. I beat level 13 but 14 was just too much for me.

Some of the text (for example "go to next level" and "replay level?") is too big to fit in the box on screen (on my Nexus 7), so flows onto the next line and looks a bit weird. But thats a really minor point.

Its fun. I didn't think it can be fun at first. But its fun :D good work.

Got to level 13... but than its really hard. Vibration feedback would be great

Really fun. 18 really stumps me for some reason. Can do 17 in 8 seconds. Suddenly one more and I'm slow as hell. I'll be back to this one! Good job.

Made it to lvl 14
It is a fun little game and possible a bit addictive :P

Nice little addicting game; it was fun once you got in the flow of it. Could be a little more responsive when you click a button; maybe vibrate the phone or play a click sound?

Sorry, don't have android. Would have tried your game otherwise!

If it's in LUA, you might be able to port it to Love2D? I think rewriting purely for porting purposes is still acceptable within compo rules.

Nice! I could see kids eating this one up :)
