One of my favorites so far - simple, challenging, and I love the art style!

Interesting vision: connect and rule!

AWESOME GAME, excellent job, loved it!
Put 100 levels on this and it could easily be a commercial mobile game.

Nice game! Loved the lines showing the past moves. The level 18 almost defeated me, but I beat the game.:)

Nice little puzzle game. Would work very well as a mobile game too. Quite addictive as well.

My favorite so far. I'm stuck on level 18 and have to sleep. Darn sleep. The background track gets very annoying after playing for a long time; consider swapping for something zen-like. The chirpy motes are cute.

Sleep is over-rated. I came back and finished the game. :)

Very cute game! Mechanic is simple, but nice and there's some nice challenge with the puzzles. Great job!

Very nice puzzle game. Easy to learn, but hard to master. I don't even know how you could have come up with those levels without a ton of trial an error. Nice job.

Love the wee faces on the ink motes, and this is actually a pretty clever puzzler. Well done!

Really fantastic game! I got stuck on lvl18... couldn't figure out how to include one of the mites in the lower right. Feels much Totoro-inspired in the mites in a good way. I'd don't have much I critique other than getting stuck on that level :) A favorite so far!

Awesome. I had a lot of fun, and also enjoyed the art style and every little detail such as the motes' smiles. Good job on the difficulty progression as well.
