Cool to see Love in action. I'll have to try it sometime.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I can't say that I fully grasped the mechanics, but I was at least able to figure out a couple colors. I suppose that the point is for it to be a puzzle how to play as much as a puzzle how to win? In that case, it's certainly effectively puzzling.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Neat idea and nice look to the game."},{"author_name":"martijn","author_uid":"20699","time":"Apr 29, 2013 @ 8:00am","epoch":1367222100,"text":"Rated it"},{"author_name":"leafo","author_uid":"4321","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 10:42pm","epoch":1367361420,"text":"Interesting puzzle game."},{"author_name":"TinyDrakkarStudio","author_uid":"23501","time":"May 5, 2013 @ 5:31pm","epoch":1367774760,"text":"A lot of people used Mondrian for the theme .... the idea could be nice... but i like to play with this games ..."},{"author_name":"FREEZX","author_uid":"20830","time":"May 11, 2013 @ 3:17pm","epoch":1368285120,"text":"Nice game. Unfortunateley i didn't quite understand the mechanics. What does Matching stand for? Why do some fields go blank? This should be explained much better IMHO.

I am all for games that don't explain themselves, especially puzzlers like this one, but you surely need to give a little more feedback to encourage right action."},{"author_name":"alts","author_uid":"18267","time":"May 17, 2013 @ 7:48am","epoch":1368776580,"text":"Congrats on your first Ludum Dare entry. I have a few comments that I wanted to make. It asks the player to do the impossible: create black on black. The best a player can hope to get is orange, and the screenshots are misleading. Was that intentional? Also, it feels weird to offer a score when the maximum possible score is based primarily on the granularity of the grid. Scores can't really be compared if the configurations are not consistent."}],"images":["ld26\/15141-301f6db7a45d18fce4046ded08bea81b.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/db.tt\/88IoEend","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/db.tt\/88IoEend","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/db.tt\/88IoEend","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/love2d.org\/","text":"Love2D"},{"url":"http:\/\/db.tt\/eDMmOhRu","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"26692","g_author":"15141","g_event":"LD26","g_eventkey":"16","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"26722","g_title":"Black on Black","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"10","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/233892\/15141-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"My First Ludum Dare entry :)\r\n\r\nThe game is based on Piet Mondrian's art, so the style and game is very minimalistic.\r\n\r\nSimple match 3 game, try to create a black on black screen...<\/p>","title":"Black on Black"}
