Cool sound and lighting helps set the mood. The gameplay was super confusing to me though. I had no idea about what I should do with the bombs. And It was a bit difficult to control also

Game looks interesting and would probably be quite fun, but the lack of a pointer and difficulty of pointing at an item makes it very difficult to play and at one point i completely lost the ability to point low enough to click on the bombs.
I did not try the windows version, if it's just a bug of the web version, it might be worth pulling it down or **somehow** fixing it
Not my biggest gripe but after playing for 2-3 minutes the sounds and flashes got a bit too much, they're a nice touch at the start though, maybe you could reduce their frequency with progress
I was very confused at first because the Start button didn't seem to work, but clicking on the edge of the button eventually worked. I pressed escape to show the mouse since it's really really hard to click on bombs, screws and wires without a mouse but for some reason the game keeps hiding the mouse on me, which is really annoying, so I either have to fumble around without a mouse or keep pressing escape.
Aside from difficulty aiming an invisible mouse, the first bombs are quite easy to defuse, then there is a very rapid spike in difficulty with colors of interest and the inequations. I really don't understand what I am supposed to do with the inequation bomb but I died before I could figure it out.
It would be nice if there was no time pressure when reading the instructions for each type of bomb.
I like the idea of multitasking with a handful of different bombs and rules, but it's very overwhelming at first.
@almost Thank you for feedback. I think you were playing older version of the game, as mentioned bugs had been already fixed
Huh, that's weird. I was playing the windows version downloaded from https://gamejolt.com/games/cusmineisgone/706637. Is a bugfix version uploaded anywhere?
