Great, creative idea! The Hot Dog puzzle took me two tries—I got a bit tangled up on my first attempt. Everything felt very cohesive, from the visuals to the music and the overall concept. It’s one of those puzzles that looks simple at first glance but turns out to be more challenging than expected.

Oh wow, I’m super impressed with how cohesive the whole game feels. All the visuals and the music fit really well with the comic book theme you were going for, and I especially loved that moment where you shine the constructed symbol into the night sky after assembling it.

Nit: it looks like you can interact with the on/off switch while dialogue is happening, which is probably not intended. It let me fail the level while the dialogue was still on screen. It also seems like you can progress through levels even if you fail them, though they still appear locked on the home screen.

Really cool take on the theme, and I love how you set it up with the super hero lights. I started to struggle a bit from the bird one onwards as there were so many pieces that it was hard to keep track of what went where- and if your original piece that you put down wasn't quite in the right place you had to start over again. Still really cool game and one of the most unique that I've played for sure. Great job!

I had way more fun with this than I thought I was going to have! Found it HILARIOUS when my signals looked nothing like what it should have. Would be funny if I summoned the wrong super-hero due to my mishap :sweat_smile:

Wow! Very creative concept, and well executed too! I'm surprised this game doesn't have more ratings on it!

A stylish game. The music is perfectly chosen. The final levels were challenging, but they were all manageable. Great job!

A very polished game with some really challenging puzzles! For me, the difficulty curve could have been a bit smoother, I actually found the heart easier than the butterfly. But everything feels very cohesive an it’s fun to figure things out. A great entry!

I enjoyed it's stylish and funny take n the theme, the gameplay is good and responsive although I thought the difficulty kinda fluctuated between easy and hard with the puzzles maybe some of the levels could have been swapped for a smoother difficulty curve

I really enjoyed the variety between levels, the heart one made me chuckle. I was also surprised to get the time bonus on the last level on first clear, while not getting the accuracy one (I did figure my mistake out on my second attempt though).

My only gripe was accidentally pressing the "Finish" lever while trying to move a lens - I think it'd be better if lenses couldn't be put over it or it wouldn't activate when a lens was too close.

Other than that - a very polished game, I honestly wish there were more levels. Thanks!

The concept is so cool! Some of the levels were surprisingly difficult :) Good job!

I wish we could paste screenshots. I didn't realize we could only upload and lost mine, but my crow signal was truly a failing delight. This is one of the most unique concepts I've seen in the jam and it plays well, has great music, and really awesome art direction. Also I enjoyed the writing a lot. Great work and congrats on finishing!

This could be 5/5 in "Fun" (and every category) if only the controls weren't so fiddly, if only there was a way to rotate the pieces with the mouse, if only there was a way to drag the piece under that piece...

Really fun and enjoyable game. Art work is amazing and I really enjoyed the background music, really fits into the theme :D I liked that it got more and more challenging towards the end :)

Really nice game! It's fun, the graphics are nice and the atmosphere is quite nice! The last levels were also more challenging.

Looks like we got the same idea hahaha

Well done with your game!!

Super creative mechanic! I did get a bit frustrated a couple times accidentally grabbing a piece I've already carefully positioned instead of another. Well done, though!

I kind of like it, and it’s a great implementation of the jam theme. I just wish the timers were longer, because sometimes I don’t have enough time to solve the puzzle.

The noir comic graphics are lovely! I had fun with both the funny dialogues and the game, you did great!

This is such a cool game! It really fit the theme and the small conversations were pretty funny.
I did not expect some of these to be so difficult, but still quite a fun game!

This was very unique :smile:

I did struggle with the crow , well most of them haha. Didn't see some of the hidden pieces behind the plot text box .

Really loved the atmospheric music and cartoon style. Very slick!
