A solid entry which pretty much just needs some difficulty and stage progression adjustments in order to be a perfectly playable and enjoyable game. As submitted it's kinda pointless though :) Did not try the updated version yet to not skew my judgement, but I definitely will.

Sadly, no music or sounds of any kind. Graphics are perfectly adequate though. Artistic and technical requirements are fulfilled in pretty obvious ways. Very interesting technically - go look into its source code - although it lacks clear instructions on how to build the TINS version from the archive without reaching for updated code from git. Unit testing elevates the genre score ;)

Scores: Overall 3 Artistical 3 Technical 4 Genre 3

Fun that lasts for about 15 seconds.

It doesn't reference the rules much. The hexagonal altar is the only thing I noticed that made it actually look like a TINS entry - other than that it could have been just as well done for an entirely different jam.

Graphics are nice! No audio though, which is always a let down. Even some simple silly music would have added some personality there.

I'm actually kinda frustrated with this game, since I've accidentally discovered how to make it much more fun! The core mechanic isn't really challenging and gets quickly boring - however, had you suggested to play it by two people, with one controlling the mouse and the other controlling the keyboard, it would have been a completely different story. Such a silly small change actually makes the game pretty social and fun - try to play it this way! :D I'm not sure whether that should influence my ratings though, it's not the author's idea but mine after all ;)

Couldn't find any GNU/Linux build or instructions on how to create it, so had to use Wine.
