Espial is a simple puzzle game about discovering combinations of colours in a messy map.

If you get errors about missing libraries, you should download mingw.

Instructions on how to play are included in the game.
The Jam version has more complex gameplay and includes sound effects.

Thank you for playing my first game in C using the SDL library.

Really easy game to pick-up, and addicting in a strange sort of way.

Very easy game. Too easy actually. Since you can exchange tiles as often as you want I simply chose a spot and build my target tile there. Rinse and repeat.
Also, you should make the different tile with different shapes maybe. It's hard on my eyes like this.
Other than that, solid game.

In the Jam version the game is harder. You should play that one instead of compo.

Interesting idea but IMO it needed more restrictions to make it challaging. Maybe reducing the size of the play area or restricting whic blocks could be swapped somewhow. Still a nicely presented and complete game though.

shows promise, but the compo version just isn't fun. I'll come back to the Jam version later.

This is a game that I would absolutely love for my DS or, if I had one, a touch phone.
