a quick tutorial would have helped a lot with understanding the goal, but we were under a bit of a time crunch lol. Otherwise nicely polished

Got up to 3rd level and didnt get the purple wings. Some hints for dummies like me after failing too often would be nice. I like the gameconcept and idea!

Well done! I love the elegance of having the tiles be intuitive enough that you don't need to explain their rules. To be honest though I'm still not sure I understand what the rules for the last tile were. Overall I enjoyed it a lot.

Unique game concept in this jam, but there are things that could be improved(my personnal opinion): the audio is noisy, you hear crackling constantly, tha art is minimalist. I like the concept of gessing the rules when you are playing but a puzzle game where you have to place 5 different tiles might not be the best implementation of this idea. Still good job for your submission.

I finished the game but I still don't understand what I was supposed to be doing. The art was nice, though. The music was pretty chill.

Nice game! It was a bit hard to figure out what the tiles did at first, a small tutorial would have helped a lot. 😅

Figuring out the puzzles was fun, however at first when I solved the puzzle, I wasn't really sure why what I did was right. Some explanation of the blocks in the end would have been nice.

At first I though a lot of trial and error is needed to understand the rules, but you designed the pieces well enough that the player can grasp the rules pretty quickly (a great example are the two heart pieces) and the levels felt fair and didn't overwhelm me. Also nice music and graphics (often these fell short in puzzle games) Great work!

I liked the different sound effects that played when grabbing tiles, slotting them into the grid, and pushing buttons, it's cool to see someone taking advantage of the sound aspect of ui feedback :thumbsup:
The animated background looks cool, they way it starts with clouds and sinks deeper into the waves the further you go is a neat little detail!
