It was a little rough with the UI issus in web, but I made it to the end!  The web link didn't work for me, it got stuck on \"downloading data\" - apparently trying again just now it went through, but don't know why.  Either way, some clever ideas here.  I really liked figuring out the last puzzle.  For awhile, though I'd have to cheat the system some way haha.  So despite having a massive bug that took a huge chunk of your time, the game came together pretty well.  But it is rough around the edges because of it.  But I see the vision!

If a stage is unsolvable it should give you an announcement and restart that stage. If you feel you are stuck use the restart button.\n\nIf you enjoy it let me know, I am deciding if I want to full release this game. If you want to support and stay in the loop head over to Thegamezbeplayed.com\n\nThanks!\n","title":"Signals Crossed","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"capture":{"original":"https:\/\/api-jam.ludumdare.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/429001+429002+429003+429004+429005+429006+429007+429008+429009+429010+429011+429012+429013+429014+429015+429016+429017+429018+429019+429020+429021+429022+429023+429024+429025+429026+429027+429028+429029+429030+429031+429032+429033+429034+429035+429036+429037+429038+429039+429040+429041+429042+429043+429044+429045+429046+429047+429048+429049+429050+429051+429052+429053+429054+429055+429056+429057+429058+429059+429060+429061+429062+429063+429064+429065+429066+429067+429068+429069+429070+429071+429072+429073+429074+429075+429076+429077+429078+429079+429080+429081+429082+429083+429084+429085+429086+429087+429088+429089+429090+429091+429092+429093+429094+429095+429096+429097+429098+429099+429100+429101+429102+429103+429104+429105+429106+429107+429108+429109+429110+429111+429112+429113+429114+429115+429116+429117+429118+429119+429120+429121+429122+429123+429124+429125+429126+429127+429128+429129+429130+429131+429132+429133+429134+429135+429136+429137+429138+429139+429140+429141+429142+429143+429144+429145+429146+429147+429148+429149+429150+429151+429152+429153+429154+429155+429156+429157+429158+429159+429160+429161+429162+429163+429164+429165+429166+429167+429168+429169+429170+429171+429172+429173+429174+429175+429176+429177+429178+429179+429180+429181+429182+429183+429184+429185+429186+429187+429188+429189+429190+429191+429192+429193+429194+429195+429196+429197+429198+429199+429200+429201+429202+429203+429204+429205+429206+429207+429208+429209+429210+429211+429212+429213+429214+429215+429216+429217+429218+429219+429220+429221+429222+429223+429224+429225+429226+429227+429228+429229+429230+429231+429232+429233+429234+429235+429236+429237+429238+429239+429240+429241+429242+429243+429244+429245+429246+429247+429248+429249+429250+429251+429252+429253+429254+429255+429256+429257+429258+429259+429260+429261+429262+429263+429264+429265+429266+429267+429268+429269+429270+429271+429272+429273+429274+429275+429276+429277+429278+429279+429280+429281+429282+429283+429284+429285+429286+429287+429288+429289+429290+429291+429292+429293+429294+429295+429296+429297+429298+429299+429300+429301+429302+429303+429304+429305+429306+429307+429308+429309+429310+429311+429312+429313+429314+429315+429316+429317+429318+429319+429320+429321+429322+429323+429324+429325+429326+429327+429328+429329+429330+429331+429332+429333+429334+429335+429336+429337+429338+429339+429340+429341+429342+429343+429344+429345+429346+429347+429348+429349+429350+429351+429352+429353+429354+429355+429356+429357+429358+429359+429360+429361+429362+429363+429364+429365+429366+429367+429368+429369+429370+429371+429372+429373+429374+429375+429376+429377+429378+429379+429380+429381+429382+429383+429384+429385+429386+429387+429388+429389+429390+429391+429392+429393+429394+429395+429396+429397+429398+429399+429400+429401+429402+429403+429404+429405+429406+429407+429408+429409+429410+429411+429412+429413+429414+429415+429416+429417+429418+429419+429420+429421+429422+429423+429424+429425+429426+429427+429428+429429+429430+429431+429432+429433+429434+429435+429436+429437+429438+429439+429440+429441+429442+429443+429444+429445+429446+429447+429448+429449+429450+429451+429452+429453+429454+429455+429456+429457+429458+429459+429460+429461+429462+429463+429464+429465+429466+429467+429468+429469+429470+429471+429472+429473+429474+429475+429476+429477+429478+429479+429480+429481+429482+429483+429484+429485+429486+429487+429488+429489+429490+429491+429492+429493+429494+429495+429496+429497+429498+429499+429500?authors&parents&superparent"},"object":"objects\/sha256\/e2\/e2242a7d8408ff1c54feebc71a423fcafbf85a70a5e0ed1209164135ce5fcdfe","record":"shard-2\/json-live-urgent-v3\/records\/a149866bafadb28ad0611980d4f585041defa4c85ac725ac7d2819bcae04f5ab.json","sha256":"e2242a7d8408ff1c54feebc71a423fcafbf85a70a5e0ed1209164135ce5fcdfe","source":"https","stored_at":1784022552}}
