Well the title isn't exactly gripping but the gameplay is.  Really cool take on the theme lol "Adequately" 

Also I'd appreciate feedback on my submission if you get a chance!

Developer

Thanks for the honest feedback, and glad it was enjoyed! I'll be sure to give yours a shot later this evening.

Thanks, I'm now hoping to get a job as a particle accelerator operator. But for real, a really unique idea and I enjoyed it, thank you a lot!

Developer

Glad to hear you enjoyed it, and best of luck in landing the job!

It's a pretty simple base concept, but I could totally see the potential in here for something more, add in some extra mechanics over time and other things you have to manage while doing everything else and you could totally have a chaotic experience going where you're running around trying to fix one thing while another's breaking. For the limited time you had this is really interesting. Great work! (And Blender 3.5, really? We're on 4.5! (That was joke, not sure how well that came across in writing)).

Developer

I really wanted to add more, but had to settle with just a simple way to make players not button mash to get the matching. I did hear the joke, and I think still using 3.5 -is- a joke at this point lol. Thanks for the feedback, and glad you found the concept interesting!

Did I just just learn how to operate a particle accelerator? Really liked the idea of learning how to operate a machine

Developer(+1)

If only an accelerator was that simple IRL :-P Really glad you enjoyed the idea. Thanks for giving it a go!

Interesting gameplay idea! It took me a little while to understand the instructions at first. I think some more variety or mechanics introduced between levels would help introduce more difficulty and keep the gameplay fresh!

Developer

Highly agreed for mechanics, though I had to keep scope low since I had to be working a 40/wk job during this jam. Thanks for the honest feedback!

Awesome game! Love this concept and has the perfect amount of difficulty without being too hard. I was able to beat the game on level 4 and cant wait to see more levels!

Developer

Thanks for the positive response! It's good to know the difficulty isn't off-putting.

Well, I've not played a game like this before. I don't think I quite understood how to do it properly but LHC is probably pretty complicated so I don't feel bad! :)

Developer

I ran out of time to make a decent tutorial for it, but appreciate you giving it a try!
