How did this not get more ratings?! That was so good. I solved it. Very tactile and fun to discover everything, and the difficulty felt great. Loved the ending. Awesome work!
I have to admit that I button-mashed my way through one or two of the puzzles without really understanding the goal - but I did go back and figure out later why it had worked, and the answer was always satisfying. The art and the music are great. I had a good time.
The ending was so stupid — I love it! Overall, a really great game.
I thoroughly enjoyed the puzzles; some were easier than others, but that's typical for the genre. The music you curated was fitting, the art style was great, and the incorporated humor was spot-on.
My only piece of criticism is that the "second" puzzle was a bit frustrating because it required a clue from outside the puzzle itself.
But overall, this is a great puzzle game that I truly enjoyed!
Wow, this is one of the most puzzling puzzles I’ve ever played in a Ludum Dare entry! It feels classic and really well executed. It actually reminded me of the old days when I used to spend hours on code-cracking puzzle games—this one captures that spirit perfectly. A secret makes a game game, and multiple of them make it top notch. I love this entry for abosultely sure, not to mention you have also attached hints for accessbility. I need your irl number so I can call you guyes and say congrats, very nice job!
Very solid very puzzly! I am not into riddle games so I only got 4 cubes on my own (the right top sequence ob bulbs hidden in left down is a real deal and I spotted the latin numbers but had no clue what to do with them). Thanks for providing help in description, that is very thoughtful. Anyway, I enjoyed the design and gameplay a lot!
Thank you very much for the enjoyable experience! It's very addictive. I got stuck on a puzzle where the clue was illogically placed on another box, but overall I had a blast!
Loved it! The visuals and sound are so appealing and fun to interact with, and the puzzle was really fun - lots of moments where I felt stumped at first and then it was really satisfying to notice and/or uncover what I needed to do. E.g. I solved the top right puzzle wrong at first, but then when I got the hint for it, I was already an expert on how to achieve that, which felt great. There's a great sense of discovery throughout, which I really enjoyed.
Great game, i usually don't like puzzle games too much but you made it fun! The sfx were very very helpful and the graphics were aesthetically pleasing :D
It all feels so incredibly nice to interact with, the friendly visual design pairs so well with the choice of music and the sound effects. It's soooo satisfying!
I had a ton of fun with this. Plenty of puzzle variety and enough hints dotted about to avoid getting stuck too long. The center piece did feel like a step up compared to the others though. Really lovely little game, great job! (Poor Hector, will he ever get any peace from these darn jam callers?!)
Great puzzle game! Loved the colorful style and interacting / pushing buttons felt very satisfying to me :) The bottom-left timing puzzle was really tough for me, just too fast for me :sweat_smile: And what was the solution to the top-right puzzle? I solved it kinda on accident haha I liked the logic gates puzzle! And thanks for a Linux build!!
Great game! The difficulty feels just right, though I kinda solved the center puzzle by accident :sweat_smile: The pixel art, the music, the "clickiness" of the buttons... Very polished entry, loved it !
@pikario aah ah I see :face_palm: I thought something like that would be the solution for the bottom-left puzzle, I looked around but somehow I completely missed that haha similarly I was completely blind to the hint for the top-right puzzle haha Still a great game! Thanks for your reply :)
This is my favorite puzzle game of the jam so far! Y'all are so talented and pump out bangers every jam. Ngl, I had to use the hints for the bottom left and top right puzzles... lol
Came here to see what game 'the pun buddies' created! :D
I very much enjoyed playing this game. I would not change anything. Everything is so satisfyingly touchy and responsive, visually appealing, the puzzle is tricky, but readable and fulfilling to solve (although I do not know how I solved the part with lightbubbles :laughing:). Final punchline is the cherry on the top. Amazingly playful!
What an amazing puzzle game, so high-quality and engaging! This game brought me so much joy during the playthrough, and the ending is quite amusing. Fantastic work!
Great puzzle game! Really fun trying to solve this with all the subtle hints. The longer i went around and looked at things the more i discovered. The elements like the screwdriver are really fun to give you that big sense of progress. I like the way the game puts most things in front of you, you just need to slow down and pay attention instead of trying to solve the exact task you just unlocked through brute force. Very much appreciated that you had the clues available which gave me more determination not to look at them, but provided me with an answer if I needed. Really solid entry.

Maybe the bottom-left one is deliberately too fast and you can do something about it... 👀

Still a great game! Thanks for your reply :)
