The queen got displeased pretty fast. Probably best game i played so far. 10/10. Really on the topic. Would love to be able to start from the same day tho.

This was very fun, especially once you get into a flow state of trying to weave patterns quickly! Made it through all three days and the queen seemed happy.
Nice use of the theme, very old tech. Great work!

This was a lot of fun! It was actually pretty tough but also satisfying once you got the hang of it. Very clever use of the theme too.

I wish weaving would be this fast in real life! Fun entry.

This one is really original, gameplay is fluid, visuals are explicit and easy to understand.
I didn't find any bug.

Only problem for me is that the music is a little too repetitive.

Good job !

Thank you for the feedback @vokietislt ! You are toatally right with the request to start from the same day. We had changed it just in time :)

I really enjoyed the high-stakes tension of fulfilling the Queen's weaving orders. The way the pressure builds as you have to match these ancient patterns felt genuinely compelling, and the whole concept is super unique.
