Puzzles are very satisfying. Interesting changes on the mechanics. Awesome work! Btw, start texts can be shorten.

loved it:) the idea of using logic-gate for the puzzles is very welcome, really enjoyed the puzzles once the not-gate got introduced. the ambiance and general theme was really nice too, the only real gripe I could make was that I couldn't find a way to skip dialog and the connection to the theme is a little tenuous too. Other than that, it's real solid, really well made :D

This was really cool! Very interesting puzzles and storyline. I was a little disappointed by the ending.

Wow. This is nice.

Simple and effective, that's all I have to say about this one. The puzzles are interesting and--while they can be bruteforced--it's much more enjoyable if you pay close attention and solve the puzzles like they're meant to be solved.

I think there could be some background music, though. Maybe something ominous to make it feel like the work is very important, and if you fail, then it really is game over for you.

You, sir, just earned 4 stars and a follower on Twitter. Keep it up.

Nice mood rendering and well designed puzzles. But somehow it feels too constrained. Maybe I'm the only one having this feeling.

Nice puzzles, I really enjoyed the presentation.

Very well done cohesive design. Mood 5/5.
I liked it, but it was very short. If you can figure out a way to randomly generate levels given a difficulty value, that would be great.
Thanks for the game!

neat little puzzle game. Would love some very light music in the background just to keep things interesting.

Enjoyable experience, but very easy. Never once got stumped, and was able to finish most puzzles in a minute or less.

Was very fun!

The only problem I had was that it was a little difficult to remember which gates were which, but I'm not sure if that's just because I'm rushing through games so fast or not. :/
