Great game, excellent work. Loved playing it a couple of times! Loved the 8bit look and sounds with smooth controls.
Loved the minimalistic aestethics, but there's nothing else noticeable other than that.
Very beatiful game, though it is more like a work of art. Very soothing trip until the very end.
I've seen your comment on my game, and I want to thank you for it. I've updated the information to make it more understandable. You were right on the basic idea of the mechanics.
Nice game, I found the idea original, and the game challenging fun. I've seen you've checked my game. Thank for your comment, I updated the info to make it easier to play.
First of all, thank you very much for the comments, I started programming a month ago, trying to learn as much as I could to participate in this event, and ended up learning much more while doing this game.
The idea behind this game, is that you control the hands of a kid(the gray squares that go white), that is supposed to clean the(brown) table. Because you don't want to clean the table, you have to hide every item under the tablecloth(red). Your mother(yellow) square on top, turns around(orange) from time to time, to check on you. If he sees that you are lifting(green) the tablecloth, she will scold you, and the game is lost. If you can hide everything under the tablecloth, without your mom noticing it, you win the game.
To play the game, you must hold the R button, to grab the tablecloth, and the SPACE bar to hold it down. Release the SPACE bar to lift the cloth(it will turn green), and slide all the items under the cloth, clicking them with the left mouse button.
The relation with the theme is the fact that you have to hide the things "Beneath the surface". :)
