Go to sleep... by eeldam

Drag words to reorder them
Create calm thoughts to reach deeper sleep
Avoid creating upsetting thoughts
Keep thoughts simple
Keep your mind clear
Try to get as much rest as possible before morning
Everything was done by me, I just ran out of time for submission to the compo :)
Should work on desktop and mobile web.

Sfx are effective, and gameplay is easy to understand.
My biggest gripe is balance - some sentences are a clear and easy switch of the first two words ('Did I' becoming 'I did'), while others are impossible. You also miss some messages, though that seems inevitable. I'd love a way to swap out words - you wind up with a lot of unusable jumbles.
I'd love some background music!
Overall though, this is a strong submission. You took it in an unexpected direction and that's worth a lot.
Sometimes I really did not see how I could rephrase a sentence to something good though. Maybe I am just not good enough at this game :/
That being said, I really like the creativity of this game. I really loved it :D
I love the concept, though I'll admit the conditions for "good thoughts" vs. "bad thoughts" felt a bit arbitrary. Would love to see a version with a bit more feedback/better indication as to how to "do good" at it.
Awesome interpretation of the theme, and a neat concept I haven't seen before. Good job!
