Signals From Somewhere by BrittleLizard
Signals From Somewhere is an experimental puzzle(?) game about tuning dials to return and communicate with mysterious frequencies.
Headphones are highly recommended.
Playable entirely with mouse.
The goal is meant to be intuited in-game, but if you're having trouble figuring it out: !>Simply tune the dial(s) so they match the tower's sound as closely as possible. Each dial will modify a different effect on the audio, e.g. pitch, tremolo, etc.
As an additional hint: !>Depending on how many dials you have correct already, your side of the screen will send out yellow circles(s) a few moments after the tower flashes its blue circle(s). One correct dial = one circle, two correct dials = two circles, etc.

But it was very inconvenient to adjust the sound when it was intermittent. I also think there should always be at least two sliders; otherwise, you can simply brute-force the answer.
Ну а так же надо было сделать что бы ползунок крутился относительно того где игрок зажал кнопку(Нередки случае когда у меня просто сбивалась настройка в крайнее положение)
В теории можно просто брать передвижение мышы по "y" не учитывая "x"
P.S. Only after writing this comment did I read the spoilers under the description. While playing, I didn’t even understand what the yellow circles meant.
Unfortunately the game started freezing every so often which made it difficult to fully beat the game.
Still, great job with this entry!
