Veins will replace already placed ones, but leave the ones in other layers intact, so a blood vein will never replace an air pipe for example :-)\n\nP.S.

The three layers of connect-the dots is an innovative idea, tho it took a while for me to figure out which one was which. I tried to make the 'perfect' body with no leftover bits in the recipient. (that took quite a few donors, but thiz iz my art!)\n\nIt would have been nice to see some hints one what was currently already 'connected' and enriched.\nThe left side row of the recipient was also a bit hard to see.\n\nRegardless, fun and grim, well done - two small intestines up!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":924285,"author_name":"kir Pow","author_uid":"kir-pow","epoch":1673911606,"text":"Nice spin on the harvest idea.

The controls\/gameplay took me a bit to get the hang of though - mainly got hung up on the fact that you couldn't remove bits from the right side. As I was learning the game it felt easier to restart the whole game for a clean start, which is a little bit weird. Did appreciate the tooltips though, that was helpful to understand the goal. Also the highlight during placement made it a little bit difficult to figure out which way the piece was facing. Being able to cycle donors endlessly also made it feel a little simple to find the pieces you needed - still pretty fun once I got the hang of it though. Finished in 213s with 10 donors. Would be cool to see this with some progressively more complex tasks to do.

The puzzle game idea itself is really cool and that it's not just \"connect these three components\" but instead you have to think about the overlapping parts and finding the right pieces to do that - is pretty clever indeed. In the end I was able to beat it pretty easily but I myself wouldn't really know how to make sure that it has a fitting difficulty because of the randomly generated donators.\n\nMaybe if there were even more components to connect it would automatically get more complex? Like adding the nervous system which also needs to connect to the brain. I learned from another game jam that making a 3 to a 4 cranks up the gameplay a LOT.\n\nGood job!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":929206,"author_name":"arron-fowler","author_uid":"arron-fowler","epoch":1674728001,"text":"It's a really interesting take on the theme.
