Fun little puzzler! Nice application of theme :)

I like this. It's not really clear how it works, which is a good thing - but I think if you want me to experiment with it to figure out the mechanics, it should move a bit faster. I found myself getting impatient.

great looks and sound. very nice

Great concept! I had way more fun messing around with the editor than actually solving puzzles. haha

You need to keep working on this post-comp: great concept!

Nice game and good use of theme. It is great that you included the editor! Worked in Chrome but I got this error in Firefox "TypeError: e.srcElement is undefined"

I agree that you should keep working on this, it has a ton of potential.

Yeah, the editor is really fun to mess around with and I am a fan of the appearance. However, the puzzles seem to be quite hard because of the tile disappearing when resetting.

I like this game, it's a work of art. Good execution of the game.

Rad stuff, I'd love to see the game expanded upon with more parts 'n puzzles :)

bit confusing to start with, wasn't until reading the comments I discovered there was puzzles. Still pretty neat, just need better intro structure.

nice little puzzle game. simple audio would have added soooooo much.

Nice game! I love the colors. And the puzzles are great!

Great idea and super nice visuals! It's a bit hard to play, though. It would be better if one could move the pieces after a failed attempt instead of always starting from zero again. I'm confused - does it have audio? Because nothing's playing here (Chromium 26 on Debian), but the second Commenter mentioned "great sound".

Cool geometric puzzles, but they were pretty hard. I like to simple colors and appealing look. I agree with the suggestion that it be possible to move pieces rather than having to place them from scratch.

I wish that I didn't have to point to the screen with my finger to solve the puzzles, definitely some control issues that could improve this. Having said that it's a very original thing and I was pretty impressed

Cool game, painter mode seems a bit buggy. Puzzles could be a bit more challenging.

Nice concept. good game :)

Cool idea but not a lot of content. You know Puzzle Three is extremely easy, right? :P

Trying to wrap my head around level 5 with no luck.

Cool puzzler, but a bit difficult to master the mechanics properly. Almost finished it but gave up on level 5.
