Extremely fun, I managed to complete the Demo puzzle 100 had me stumped for a good 5 mins but whenever i try to buy the full game is says the is an error in the request
As for the error, it definitely should not be happening. So far it has been working fine for me and lots of other people. It could either be a problem on your end or with itch.io itself, as I have no control whatsoever over the purchasing process. Try to see if it happens with others games (don't worry, you won't actually purchase them unless you go through several confirmation dialogs). If it works fine, come back to this page, hit CTRL+F5 for a full refresh, then try to buy again. If it still doesn't work, you could also try a different browser.
That's right, the puzzles were all handcrafted. The only automatic part of the process is a tool I made to compute the solutions, so I can just make/edit a puzzle and immediately check how many solutions it has. All puzzles have exactly one solution, except for two specific puzzles which were intentionally designed to have multiple solutions (puzzles 145 and 383).
All in all it took me about 6 weeks to make all puzzles. Making a puzzle can take anything from 10 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the size, number of holes, etc. On average, it takes about 25 minutes per puzzle. They were also tested multiple times (in different days) to verify that the difficulty conforms to my intentions and that the tricky spots remain tricky long after I forget the puzzle.
Great job, very fun game :) Could you put the caveat about #145 and #383 having multiple solutions in the game description? The fact that a level has a single solution can often be used as part of the reasoning for how to solve a level, so it would be good to know beforehand that some levels have multiple solutions.

Hello! Glad you're enjoying the game.

Please let me know how it goes!
It seems time fixed it as it finally let me purchase it with no problems. Thx for the help.
You handcrafted all 500 puzzles? How long did that take you!?!
Seriously, though, great game. presentation is clean and beautiful, sound design is so nice and relaxing. This is wonderful!!
Thanks a lot!!
