Super Crane Bug

fun and stressful to learn but at 50% off this is a buy yes

An amazing little game that you can spend a few minutes (or hours) playing, and you'll find tons of fun. It reminds me of those classic puzzle games but with additional mechanics and challenges you to beat your personal high score. As time passes and the score increases, it becomes super frenetic. Additionally, the music is great; it's very catchy!

Chill casual little puzzle game. Lovely to think this tiny game was made with PICO8 engine.

I SERIOUSLY LOVE THIS GAME!!!!

... eh. It's alright but I guess it's just not for me, and should probably be cheaper.

This game bears discussion because it's obviously made really well, as well as being made with a knowledge and awareness of puzzle gaming history. The basic format is Panel De Pon (tetris attack, puzzle league), and it also borrows from other variants (ie kollon), as well as adding some twists I haven't encountered before. The premise is that you play a puzzle league style game but have to switch methods when you clear a specific glowing brick. Unfortunately, it really isn't very fun to have to switch methods, and would be much better if you could just choose what you want. The switching remainds me of multi-player puzzle games where your opponent hits a powerups and you get temporarily screwed over. That shouldn't be how single player feels, its much more of a chore to me. 10/10 for programming, graphics, style, creativity. But I just don't think this game is worth the price.
