I really like the simple control scheme and gameplay. But the best thing about this game is the usage of color identity and shape identity for delivering parcels to the gods! It might be unintended but the emergent accessibility feature from just the small bit of design in the art assets is sweet as hell.\n\nOnly thing I would say is to not call them \"mess ups\", maybe like \"lives\" or maybe \"gods favors\", but the language of using \"mess ups\" in your instructions makes it sound a little unpolished, and maybe unclear. With the red font, I thought I was messing up every time at first, not that I was being allowed them. Maybe you could turn that value into a fractional format?\n\nOverall, it's a good and fun game!","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":935665,"author_name":"joaosilva22","author_uid":"joaosilva22","epoch":1682930937,"text":"I loved the concept behind your game, it's such a cool idea!
