The puzzles are cool and definitely make you think. I made it all the way to level 10 but couldn't figure it out after a good number of attempts. I like the visuals too.

The only feedback I would have is that the movement felt slow and it was hard to get in the flow at first. But as I played around, it was enjoyable but I just wished for slight increase in speed!
