The internet may just be a series of tubes, but someone has to make sure the tubes go to the right place! Spin and swap the pieces on the board to build connections from the messages at the bottom of the board to the recipients waiting at the top.

Absolute favorite so far, love the old art style and the music isn't too repetitive either. Good job, will play it a bunch :)

Great game. Is kind of easy to get stuck when you are out of swaps in late game, but is ok.

One of the best submissions I have played thus far!

Really cool color mixing mechanic, I thought it was super clever and worked well to make things more difficult.

Mechanics work well, I didnt have any issues or breaks.

I always try to give something constructive but I honestly cant think of anything I would change :)

Nice take on the pipe puzzle genre, with a good mix of strategy and chance. Well done, I like it!
