⚠ Disclaimer

This is an early version of the game made under time constraints. Most core gameplay works, but:

• Some UI elements and text are misplaced or incorrect.

• Victory/defeat screens may display the wrong outcome at times.

• Certain rules are unfinished or not implemented correctly.

• Some levels (especially in Time Mode and Puzzle Mode) may currently be unbeatable.

Your feedback is appreciated while the game continues to improve!
