Fun! After finishing and clicking on one of the bigger sizes, I couldn't go back to Hackernews because of how it handled redirecting (I think).

#72Thanks! This is fun. I've worked my way up to 20x20 so far.

#73Very nice! Maybe right-click should rotate the other direction. Edit: Oh, now I see that right-click locks the tile. Yeah, that's a nice function, too.
You can change control mode in the settings. The default is rotate/lock, but there's a rotate/rotate as well. And... another tricky one for orienting a tile in one click.

#74I liked it, but I've got a funny thing about being timed. It stresses me out and makes a game that should be relaxing completely unenjoyable. I've heard others say the same to me often, so I know I'm not alone. Although there are clearly plenty of other folks who do like the added pressure of a timer. If you had a mode that completely turned off any times, I'd actually keep playing.

#75Right-clicking locks a piece, but it also brings up a context menu that I need to get rid of. It would be nice if that didn't happen.

#76Well done! It was intially intimidating, but it quickly became clear that the limited options made it almost a no-brainer to solve.

#77Nice.. it could be helpful if you could right click to turn the pieces in the other direction.

#78Make a daily one where everyone has the same game for the day and you can share your scores and my entire friend group would play along with the other ones we do like Wordle and NYT Mini Crossword. Let me know if you add this!
