Wow, very impressive.

dertom 2013-04-30 14:12

Just wow, that is fucking polished and feels very good! Great game!

fullmontis 2013-04-30 14:14

This is very impressive indeed. You have to develop this further, I was hooked.

pizzababies 2013-04-30 14:18

Absolute genius game. I had a similar idea a while ago, it's a shame I never followed through with it.

clavus 2013-04-30 14:25

Great game! The puzzles are real brain wranglers.

walnoot 2013-04-30 14:25

Very nice! Looks very polished.

madball 2013-04-30 14:58

There seems to be no end? Anyway, great game, and kinda challenging. I liked animation, it seems to be flawless.

dst 2013-04-30 15:13

Awesome mechanics!

grimfang4 2013-04-30 15:14

That was very nice. After the 5th one or so, I figured out a strategy that optimized my thinking effort, though. Then it was no problem to breeze through the next few billion levels.

justinmullin 2013-04-30 15:38

Thanks for the positive comments, all!

Madball: no, there's no end. I'd love to set up a concrete set of levels so there's clear progression and something to work towards, but alas, only 72 hours.

Jonny D: I'm not sure I've gotten that good at the game yet. There's definitely a difficulty ceiling once you've got the hang of it, but I still take a while to solve the later puzzles.

hardycore 2013-04-30 15:40

I like it! Quite impressive and weird. A bit tricky too!!!

xandy 2013-04-30 16:01

hard and good!

floatingghost 2013-04-30 17:13

Very, very nice. I shall definitely play more.

lody 2013-04-30 17:15

I agree you should continue to develop this. I was hooked! I would buy this as a phone/tablet app in a second. Very nice work!

sirdorius 2013-04-30 17:40

Impressive! And to think you made it in scala... wow. I want this on my mobile phone!

hiku 2013-04-30 18:46

Really good.

dookie 2013-04-30 21:43

This is just great! Good graphics, animation, music and a really good interpretation of the theme :)

zazery 2013-04-30 23:32

Outstanding game! Reminds me of SpaceChem.

It took me awhile to realize I needed to drag a component onto a vat because I thought I needed to rearrange them on the board. The in game tutorial is very well done otherwise and the level design is smart.

stqn 2013-05-01 00:08

Very nice, good graphics and music and interesting gameplay! The game didn’t explain that I could modify the machines the first time, so I got stuck a bit on the third level or so. It would be nice to know the current level number and to be able to skip through the tutorial, and also if the levels were ordered by difficulty :).
When it started to be a bit complex (4 machines) it didn't feel that fun anymore (too many possibilities).

manax 2013-05-01 02:25

Well done. I love these sorts of machine/process puzzle games.

Did run into a case which seemed unsolvable: The only 1/2 machine that produced the necessary result, created 2 shapes...

whilefun 2013-05-01 13:16

Seriously amazing job. This has depth, fun, and is a very good use of the theme. Well done, I will be coming back to this game. I hope you pursue it further after the jam :)

imagnity 2013-05-01 17:34

Man!!!! This is truly a good game. I mean it! And hey! it's libgdx. Who doesn't like that? :)

derdragon 2013-05-01 21:44

I just spent... WAY too much time playing that. My only gripe might be that you're able to do TOO much, and it takes away a little from the feeling of accomplishment (at least for me). Obviously up my alley though, I've been playing it for at least the past half-hour.

mtthwcmpbll 2013-05-02 00:00

This doesn't seem to work for me on my mac. I've got a stack trace that says "org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Could not get the JAWT interface". It looks like it might be related to having Java 7 installed? If you could, I'd zip up a version with a JRE packaged up and a startup bat/shell script to use that java.

justinmullin 2013-05-02 00:22

Hey mtthwcmpbll - thanks for the heads up. I'll see if I can't set up a version with a bundled JRE. Sorry in the meantime, OS/X+Java 7 users!

minionstudios 2013-05-02 00:45

Very well done and challenging! I am impressed by this one!

uberneen 2013-05-02 01:29

Very good. This has a complete and polished feel.

ecool377 2013-05-02 01:50

Really Cool game, think it needed more minimal graphics though but really fun.

cahman 2013-05-02 01:51

Extremely good! I don't think I'd change a thing.

justinmullin 2013-05-02 01:52

Hey, no one ever said "Minimalism" meant minimal graphics! The theme is open to interpretation. =)

rose 2013-05-02 02:01

Very nice! I love to see puzzle games in LD. It was tricky until I got the hang of it, and then easy, especially with more converters. I did get stuck on a level that I think was impossible, though - it wanted a single yellow piece, but no converter could output a single yellow piece.

nicealexanderas 2013-05-02 03:05

Very cool and impressive! :D nice work bro!

lansiir 2013-05-02 03:12

Pretty complex, it reminds me of SpaceChem. Very cool though.

salamander3 2013-05-02 11:55

Incredibly polished game, with interesting mechanics, and fitting into the theme solidly. Perfect.

dotteri 2013-05-02 17:15

awesome puzzle game

robotality 2013-05-02 20:00

Really nice game mechanic, feels well polished and well thought out. Would love to see this on my Android phone!

eggdestroyer 2013-05-06 11:37

This game is great. It may lack IMO some difficulty progression and sometimes puzzles seems to be too much optimisable to be interesting, but it's really hard to achieve this sort of things with so little time. Apart from that, the level of polish is quite, and the "minimalism" part is smart. Well done !

patrickward 2013-05-07 10:57

Wow, I love this. Very relaxing and enjoyable game. I almost lost time playing it! The initial walk through was useful. The graphics and audio were very appropriate for each other. This was one of the best puzzle games I've played so far. Very well done. I'm impressed!

ragzouken 2013-05-08 16:36

Really interesting game! It was a little too long for my liking (I didn't play long enough to see if there was any story to see).

justinmullin 2013-05-08 16:59

Yes, the game is supposed to be infinite, and puzzles are randomly generated. Some of the later dialogue hints at that fact, but it's not made explicit. I'm sorry for any pain that may cause for those who just really really need closure. ;)

rafaelsales 2013-05-08 21:54

Fantastic puzzle! Really innovative and fun. Congratulations!

lightnarcissus 2013-05-12 04:40

Smart game and I must say it's a solid effort in terms of design and polish for a game jam.

sylvain-p 2013-05-15 00:28

Good concept.

phocker 2013-05-15 03:55

wow that was a really great game -- awesome

purplescape 2013-05-20 23:22

Very polished puzzle game! Seriously challenging for my brain.
