I've seen mobile ads for this type of game so when I saw this game promoted on the front page of itch.io, I gave it a go! It took me a while to differentiate the numbers and to realize that 7 was not a 1! Overall, I liked it, and I can see how this kind of game can become addictive. I wish the board was bigger, the numbers not as close to one another, and the game to not be timed. Just not for me, but fun for many people! Also, is it colorblind friendly?
Incredibly fun, I played it over 20 times and got up to 203 points! I can't believe this can be done with 500 lines of code! And I'm a bad cat who resets if there are too many 9s in the initial placement, nya~.
Very cool game. I loved finding more and more patterns and rules as I played and interesting behaviors, like clearing 9+1s in the beginning cause 9s are useless and will get in a way otherwise, but you also sacrifice useful 1s and sometimes it's better not too. And later just seeing combinations and not having to count, just knowing momentarily that 4+4+2 is 10, etc
I noticed a bug: if score counts equals to the size of an area you have selected, not the size of an area that would contain all the numbers. Like, if you have selection with empty space around numbers, you would receive score equal to the size of that empty space if you selected it.
This seems like a bug because it doesn't work like the way the rules state, but I think it works better then intended this way. With the blank spaces being used there's more strategy and reward for clearing certain areas. Please do not patch this!
This is fascinating! I wasn't familiar with "Fruit Box" and this a wonderful rendition. I think I actually prefer your simplification and use of color, although the music on "Fruit Box" is great.
Very nice simple idea! Sometimes I'll see some numbers grouped together and think "I feel like there's something here that works" and just drag some boxes quick to see if I can get one by feel.
When I saw TweetTweetJam going around I thought of you and wondered if you were making something! Absolutely wacky how compact you manage to make these, I need to get more comfortable with P8 so you can teach me.

Super fun game, especially for the fact it was made with minimizing characters.

I like how it lets me play after the timer ends, without scores obviously but i love finding patterns.
original and simple.

Hi! We played your game on stream and really enjoyed it!
good game and it reminds old school game called greed.
Fun game

I can't believe this can be done with 500 lines of code!

This is super cool, great job!
Significantly better scores are possible, based on RNG and optimal play
there's a hidden endless mode 😄
it definitely took a while but my high score is 212!!!
update: 319. i'm INSANE
Very cool concept! I was only able to get 33, and only one of those was a square, which was what I was really trying to hunt down.

Actually I agree after a while of playing
Personal best:
Wtf,wow. Congrats!

This is f'n addictive, after achieving my score I could literally see numbers everywhere. Great game, best so far for me.
youve carved out the shape of a bird!
Oh god, you're right :D cute! 🐦

This is very good. It’s really impressive how much game you squeezed into 500 characters.
