A memory puzzle game! A bit easy because you can show the level form with a click of mouse or space but still very nice idea and pretty well executed!  \nThe 3d graphics was great especially this type of game!  The sound effects was nice!  \nNice job with your LD entry!  \nPLEASE add some screenshots to the game page!!!!!!

Consider publishing your first game big success despite the ratings, for me this is the main idea of LD.

I really like that, truth is that there are some things that would be great to have in-game but, this is a game jam and this is totally solid for an entry.
