The idea is good, but the drag and drop interface to draw the track is kind of bad.

Great game! Had fun playing it. I could really feel the difficulty at level 11 & 12 :P

Very good puzzle game ! i'm stuck at level 11, difficulty curve is nice.

graphics and SFX are pleasent, music is missing but that's ok for a puzzle game.

i discoverd you can erase cell by simple click, you should write it somewhere in the game page. A "clear all" would be useful as well.

great job.

Already said my comments in the Elysia stream.

Level design is extremely clever - solving the puzzles was very satisfying. And I am still stuck at 13.

Had a lot of fun! Really interesting concept, well thought puzzles! Contrary to others, I found the drag and drop interface to draw the track perfectly adapted! 😄

Neat puzzles with challenge ramping up smoothly, reminds me of the game Trainyard. Drawing of the tracks feels cumbersome though.

Cool puzzler! Really had me thinking. GJ keeping the basics simple, but still have lots of possibilities.

Thanks all! Looking forward to expanding this post-jam.

@joror Looks like we were playing each others' games at the same time! Thanks!

A fun little game, and it really makes you have to think! The tracks are a little difficult to place, but it's something you do get used to. Nice work!

Very solid game, so far I have played this one probably for longest amount of time and this is even compo game. Only those drag & drop controls were very annoying and strangly behaving.

The controls are a bit janky, but overall a neat little game! I also noticed some pretty good tutorializing, well done!

A simple puzzle mechanic made great through clever level design. It's fascinating how much you made out of this. The game is a real brainteaser in the best sense. The drag controls felt awkward at first but once I got used to them they made sense. A button to clear all rails built (aka clean up the mess I made...) would've been helpful. Enjoyed this a lot and played for quite some time. Good job! PS: The game would work great on mobile I think.
