oh man this is fantastic. so elegantly designed, it feels perfect in a way. the “perfect hand” mechanic really brings the strategy together.

my best score is 17 in fast mode (what a wonderful reward btw!)

ah this is so good!! the spinning adds so much nuance and strategy to an otherwise classic game, it’s actually crazy. like spending less useful shots just to spin the board to a more advantageous position. and how the more you make the board spin the more openings you have to make matches, but the harder it becomes to line up and hit your mark. it feels like every aspect plays off each other so well.
I love the little story and the rock visuals, having sound effects change for bubble mode is also cute :)
I got up to stage 21 in story mode before stopping. Very fun!!

I saw some deer

Great to hear, thank you for helping with testing!

Well, the latest link you gave is not using the updated Scritch player with the changes I made. Make sure to refresh the editor, upload the .wav and download the .zip, and upload that .zip to itch.

Using the audio from the example you provided, following these steps it now works on my end. But I would like to confirm that it works on your end as well.

Thank you!

The player on that page hasn’t been updated, did you use the web-based scritch editor to create a new zip? (https://torcado.itch.io/scritch-editor)

Alternatively, you can replace the index.html file in the new .zip with the one here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/torcado194/scritch-player/refs/heads/main/index.html

Yes, if you could share a link or .zip I would appreciate it!

Thank you for the update!

I’ve been looking into this, it seems like a change to itch.io’s asset loading is conflicting with .wav files.

I pushed an update to the editor, could you try it again with the old .wav file and see if it gives you the same issue? Thanks!

Hi, thanks for letting me know!

Would you mind uploading the .zip somewhere i can download, or linking me to the project, so i can look into this more closely?

That’s awesome! I’m glad you’re finding it useful, and I’m excited to see how the jam turns out. Thanks for sharing!

incredible

incredible. 199

Hi! The zip you download on the page can simply be extracted and uploaded to any webserver that serves static files. The scritch player will then be accessible when navigating to the path containing the index.html file.

this is really clever! i like that adding more abilities has an inherent counterbalance of preventing you from using those locations for movement

i think you’re a genius

gosh this is so so soo good. really clever mechanics, and super clever puzzles despite the limited possibility space! it really feels like you explored the depth of the systems without going overboard. I have a huge soft spot for games that treat everything as just a simple tile in the world with its own rules, it makes it really exciting to explore and figure out how everything works. the additional puzzles are also super satisfying! my only negative experience was [gung v znqr gur vapbeerpg 50/50 thrff ertneqvat jurgure gb pbyyrpg nyy gur sybjref be chg gurz ba gur tenirf, naq unq gb ercynl rirelguvat gb trg gur shyy raqvat. ohg v nyfb yvxr gur zragny pbaarpgvba lbh arrq gb znxr jvgu gur sybjref naq tenirf. vz abg fher gurer’f n tbbq jnl gb cerirag gung!]

i really enjoyed this, and the ending is silly :)

this is fantastic. really interesting concept, and really cool solving process. the whole second half made me love the puzzle :)

this is great. really love the music and aesthetics. I’ve played several games with this base premise, and they’re always really interesting (and challenging!). Having a polar opposite stat mechanic is a very neat touch, and complements the palette nicely :)
(i also love that you can go out of bounds ;)

super creative mechanic(s), incredibly tricky. the reveal near the middle made me laugh a lot. the movement brings back all the memories of stephen’s sausage roll, with even more tricky positioning on top. I don’t know if i have the willpower to [trg raqvat gjb, ohg vg’f penml gung vg rkvfgf ng nyy!]
really cool :)

this is wonderful! short and sweet and super clever. each rule was uniquely interesting, and not too difficult despite seeming complicated at the start.

this is fantastic. really clever base mechanic. i spent a while on the right half with a false assumption that bringing a box to the bottom wouldnt help me, but i was happily surprised when i eventually discovered a working solution. great stuff :)

I saw this on glorious trainwrecks and searched for it here just to leave a comment. this game is absolutely fantastic. incredibly enjoyable experience. even just stumbling upon a game in the wild like this is exciting, but the game itself mirrored that experience so well, with its really interesting exploration (and secrets!!). the final boss kicked my ass for a while but the last section was such a cool capstone to the whole thing.
really lovely aesthetics, great music tracks and choices. really creative and interesting mechanics, every area felt totally unique. it was so exciting finding a new area and realizing there’s an entire new set of puzzles and interactions waiting for me.
thank you for making this

thanks for playing! i wanted to minimize the number of puzzles as much as possible, given how large it is even at its current state. more or less every puzzle proves at least one edge case.

i didn’t want the editor to interfere with the puzzle at all, i.e. to not have any implications about potential solutions. and i especially didn’t want anyone to think something might happen by drawing all the lines in the right spots, so i intentionally didn’t include grid snapping.

very nice!! took a while at the start, but once I got the first one things opened up. but it was still pretty tricky afterwards! missing part of the clue really explodes the possibility space. very fun :)

wow, this is crazy. very unexpected for a confounding calendar entry. A couple of the puzzles really tripped me up, but the whole process was very enjoyable. i absolutely love the visuals in the final section, the restraints of the color palette made for some of the most beautiful imagery ive ever seen. super great work

:)

this is very cute! coming up with valid words was a lot harder than i thought it would be

wow this was incredible, one of my favorites so far. i never had to think about navigating a puzzle like this before. i went through multiple stages of false assumptions that i later reevaluated. i got all 3 endings :)
once i figured out the rules, i quickly deduced a route and was about to comment on how the full heart solution was too easy because there is really only one option for most of the path, but that single heart in the corner made the whole puzzle something special. it got me stuck long enough that i actually stopped and did the other ending first before i figured out how to manipulate things in a way that would let me solve the full heart solution. really good!!

wow this is crazy. super neat mechanic, and really really tricky. there seems to be a difficult trick in every section of the puzzle, and i managed to get stuck on all of them haha. really cool intuitions, i havent thought about the ways to manipulate objects like this in any other game. i dont think im going to be able to beat the harder version haha

this is lovely! i really like the progression of hints. it strikes a good balance between not too difficult and not too obvious. and it makes a nice scene in the end :)

aahhh gosh this is so so wonderful. really great moments of realization, the gold trophy solution is so very satisfying. i love everything about this

wonderful!! simple rules and beautiful art. i can’t tell if this is actually the case but it feels like you can’t get completely locked out of a solution based on an early decision, which makes the solving process fairly easygoing, but harder as it goes on! :)

thank you bcat for your incredible brain

this is really cute! fairly simple, but still a nice exploration of a neat mechanic. the 2nd ending was fun to discover :)
