A really good idea with flawless execution! I can actually see myself playing this on a handheld device. Amazing work!

Nice enjoyable spin on a familiar formula :)

Played this on my phone and enjoyed it. Found myself racking up a lot of massive combos unintentionally. I like the hand-drawn style and the animations (esp. the monster’s movements, also the feedback for your swipes) add a lot to it.

Even though this is just a simple match 3 game, It is very enjoyable. Graphics is very pretty, and game runs smooth and without any bugs/errors

the doodle art style was very cute and the mechanics of matching shapes to damage the monster was a really good take.

Really good idea, i couldn't stop playing, love moving a shape and create an avalanche of triplet pretending i planned it, good job.

Clean execution on a classic concept ! The graphics are very nice, crisp and effective and the music is FUUUNKY :sunglasses: the SFX do tend do become a bit annoying after a while though. The difficulty curve is very good and the progression through the levels is good. Maybe it would be nice to add more visual feedback for the player when moving a shape or clearing a bunch of pieces. Overall, it's a very clean entry. Great job ! :thumbsup:

Super atmospheric and i love that it's a mobile game, you don't see a lot of those in jams

Cool match 3 game, well done ! Maybe you can add more effect but the base is good. (music is relaxing too).

Good going! The concept was cool and it was way too cute watching the little monster run toward the city. Great game atmosphere as well!

Simple and effective! Nothing to complain about. It's a concept already used quite a bit but it works well! And I really liked the "paper" art!

And Special mention for the little monster animation! :D

Well done!

Hello! Cool game! Not a big fan of this type of game but I recognize that its cool. Maybe more juiciness on actions, its a bit too flat.
