Start with Nothing, End with Nothing is a puzzle game where you have to guide the tiles to their destination in such a way that it matches both color and letter of the destination.
I really like the concept. Like another user said it would be nice to start with a smaller word and work your way up since it is pretty difficult. Very unique mechanic!
Yeah, I definitely like the concept as well. I agree with others saying that it's pretty difficult. Maybe have a couple of levels with the letters apart from each other on the board that way they still spell nothing.
Maaaan this took me some time :D Definitely could use an easier learning curve, but I really like this concept. Would work absolutely great on mobile, too! You should continue the development of this!
I'm really torn at rating the graphics... I love how the letters look and the cool light-effects that are used but the ugly interface (the font and setting of the "colour-counter") damages the appearance.
I really liked the soothing music and the look of the graphics and light effects on the letters, very cool! Great idea for puzzle game! I feel like it would be good to start the game with shorter word as this is a hard beginning XD
Thank you. Yes, levels are generated. There is also a difficulty increase between levels. It can be hard to notice though. After a few levels there's a chance to generate vertical target, after a few more - diagonal.
I love how you took the theme literally, its extremely difficult though, I think the random generation wasn't the best choice, I refreshed the page a few times to see how the generation would change and sometimes even the first level was very tough, maybe a few hand curated levels with an increasing difficulty would have been better
I love all the visuals for the tiles! The effects and sound are remarkably similar to the game we made (so needless to say I like them a lot!) It's a frustrating game at first, but not impossible by any means. I was hooked on it for the longest time, and I'll definitely be returning to it later. This game would work really well as a mobile app, something you could play in your spare time where ever you happen to be. Great job on this one!
Edit: I left the game open in another tab while I worked, the music is just so relaxing and nice :smile:
@nobongo Thank you. This is my first time designing and programming a game for a game jam, normally i'm just an art and music guy. This means a lot to me that I've managed to create something that people can find interesting.
