Very fun idea to use math problems for the game jam's theme. Also very impressive you managed to enter two games! The UI is also very clean. Very good entry 💗
Thanks so much! 😊 I’m really glad you liked the math-themed twist—it was a fun challenge to work with! And yeah, managing two games for the jam was definitely a bit of a stretch, but i love games and making game ! ,So I think it’s totally worth it! 😅
Appreciate the love for the UI too! Thanks for playing and for the kind words—means a lot! 💗🚀
It was a good challenge trying to remember and applying some fundamental math equations needed to solve some of the questions.
Glad to hear it was a fun challenge! 😊 I love that you got into using those math equations to solve the puzzles—definitely makes the experience more rewarding. Appreciate you playing and really glad you enjoyed the challenge! 🙌🎮
I had this same idea. Its fun and quite educational. You should make it not accept an answer when the input is blank.
oh really !. love to see someone who had the same idea. yeah i think i wrote the code logic for not moving on game if there is no answer. (idk - i have to see my git logs. may be i forgot it). Thanks the nice comment buddy ! love to have a comment from you !
Nice idea to create a game around math questions. The jump from easy to medium is quite high :). I have a degree in chemistry and had to think quite a bit to solve the questions :D. However I had my education quite some years ago and do not need much chemical knowledge in my daily job anymore. For someone who did not work in a job related to chemistry I think the medium questions are pretty hard. When I replayed some stages I saw that the same questions pop up, so I would recommend to add more questions for more variety.
Congratulations to this brain wrecking game :D and showing me how much of my chemistry knowledge vanished over the years :P.
Thank you so much for playing and for the thoughtful feedback! 😊 I totally get what you mean about the jump in difficulty—it’s something I’ve been thinking about balancing better, so your input really helps. I love that you gave it a go even though you haven’t used chemistry in a while—that's seriously awesome! 😄 And yep, adding more question variety is definitely on my to-do list to keep things fresh on replays. Really appreciate your kind words and honesty—it means a lot! 🧠✨ Nice to have a comment from you !
I love that you have a README and License file (main criteria for open source category); comprehensive README, well structured, and nice use of screenshots.
Music is fun and chill. Loving the sound effects. Well polished game, clean, and fun to play too. Great take on the theme. The colours and text are all well thought out. Great job.
Thanks a lot.. nice to have a comment from you. glad you liked my game. I really appreciate you taking the time to check it out and leave such thoughtful feedback. It means a lot to hear that the README and polish stood out—I always wanted to become a open sourceror, that's why i intended to join the challenge make effort on maintaining the repository. I’m especially glad you enjoyed the music and sound effects; I wanted to keep the vibe light and fun, because this is an educational game so most of them think it's boring. Thanks again for the kind words and encouragement—it truly makes the effort worthwhile!
Anytime! Great work on your submission once again. Good luck for the final announcements.
It's not much a game, but instead more of a math class. The design is very clean. Good use of the theme!
❤️Thanks you appreciation buddy. ! As it seems 😁, you can tell that too obviously. I just want to embed the theme in some different way. i think i did it😁 like you said. nice to have a comment from you love it ❤️!
Nice! I was pleasantly surprised to find nice tricky questions, was afraid it would all be just simple arithmetic.
The UI design in general is spot-on. I could see using something like this in a classroom setting.
thanks buddy ! i love your appreciation. yeah, simple arithmetic questions overall not much difficult ones at the begining. i never thought about using in this classroom. 😎 nice idea buddy ! i will look forward to it. Nice to have a such a valuable comment from you ❤️
I really like the overall design of this. 👌
Thank you buddy ! nice to have a reply from you ❤️ !
I can’t wait to see what you do next. Keep shining, and good luck with whatever’s coming!
I will brother ! thanks for the comment ! love to have a comment from you❤️
You crushed it, no doubt. The energy was shown, and I’m so hyped to see what’s next. Keep doing your thing you’ve got this! Good luck ✨
😇 Thanks buddy ! love to have a comment from you ! i will buddy 😎
Even though I'm not the target audience for this, I have to say the UI is amazingly done. I like that the questions aren't always the same, so you can play multiple times and keep learning. And of course, saying the implementation of the theme is unique is a bit of an understatement.
nice to have a comment from you !❤️ thanks for the appreciation. love it man.
