I like this. It's not really clear how it works, which is a good thing - but I think if you want me to experiment with it to figure out the mechanics, it should move a bit faster. I found myself getting impatient.

great looks and sound. very nice

Great concept! I had way more fun messing around with the editor than actually solving puzzles. haha

Nice game and good use of theme. It is great that you included the editor! Worked in Chrome but I got this error in Firefox "TypeError: e.srcElement is undefined"

I agree that you should keep working on this, it has a ton of potential.

Yeah, the editor is really fun to mess around with and I am a fan of the appearance. However, the puzzles seem to be quite hard because of the tile disappearing when resetting.

bit confusing to start with, wasn't until reading the comments I discovered there was puzzles. Still pretty neat, just need better intro structure.

Great idea and super nice visuals! It's a bit hard to play, though. It would be better if one could move the pieces after a failed attempt instead of always starting from zero again. I'm confused - does it have audio? Because nothing's playing here (Chromium 26 on Debian), but the second Commenter mentioned "great sound".

Cool geometric puzzles, but they were pretty hard. I like to simple colors and appealing look. I agree with the suggestion that it be possible to move pieces rather than having to place them from scratch.

I wish that I didn't have to point to the screen with my finger to solve the puzzles, definitely some control issues that could improve this. Having said that it's a very original thing and I was pretty impressed

Cool game, painter mode seems a bit buggy. Puzzles could be a bit more challenging.

Cool idea but not a lot of content. You know Puzzle Three is extremely easy, right? :P

Trying to wrap my head around level 5 with no luck.

Cool puzzler, but a bit difficult to master the mechanics properly. Almost finished it but gave up on level 5.

Interesting puzzle / art tool. Nice to see another type of minimalism art in this contest.
