Christmas Puzzle Nightmare by uRLgR3y

[raw]
made by uRLgR3y for LD28 (COMPO)
First entry into a Ludumdare 48 Hour Compo. Game implements the theme of "You Only Get One" by only allowing the user have one move to solve each puzzle. And since it is the Holiday, I gave some of my graphics a Holiday them. The game is browser based and done in dart/HTML 5 that has been compiled into JavaScript. It should work on all operating systems and most browsers.

Played to the end. 'I am the winner'!

Some nice puzzle design, and a good twist on 'Puzznic'

Good work

Awesome! Racking my brain searching for the "linchpin" in each level was totally fun. Nice puzzle music, too. Very good use of the theme, too.

The 'success' sound for switching the blocks around successfully is a bit too loud in relation to the music playing - especially since it's high pitched, so that's unpleasant to the ears.

I really enjoyed the puzzles - well done!

Great concept! I love picking one move and watching the dominoes fall and how it ultimately eliminates every brick. Great puzzle design!

This was quite fun and I was surprised at how long I played. A puzzle mechanic that has been done a million times, but allowing only one move really adds to it! I liked the background and how each level taught a new mechanic at the beginning.

Cool stuff! Reminded me of my old Tetris Attack days, but turn based. Played through the end, nice work.

Reminds me the Puzzle League, but still fun to play!

nice puzzle game! some of them were easier than others, and it was mostly just watching things fall into place. good job!

This is a really rad game. Knowing that every puzzle's answer is a single move is mind boggling at times. Well done!

Nice game! I like the idea of one move that causes a chain of events. I got stuck on level 8 for a while then gave up.

Very addictive, couldn't put it down till I finished it: the chain reactions made it very satisfying; I would by the crap out of it on mobile. (with a more immersive background :P)

Very clever puzzle game. It takes some thinking before you can decide which swap will clear the whole board. It's engaging and addicting - good job! (I won't say anything about the background image...)

It was a fun game that I played until the end. Don't make the background colors the same as the blocks, my eyes get confused.

Good game mecanism I think,
Very good take on the theme, I was able to reach level 7 and am a bit blocked now, it goes smoothly hard.
Nice music, graphics are a bit rough.
