Galaxy Sweeper [jam game]
4 puzzles, for Thinky Puzzle Game Jam 4. I've made a few small updates to improve the puzzles and the UI.
Tips:
- Guessing is allowed, but not required.
- Each tool has a hotkey. Also, you can right-click to erase.
The game does not Save. If you lose your progress, skip to any level using the cheat code
Shift+L
Known bug: Losing may send you back to level 1. Use the above cheat code to fix.

The game is great, but at the last level I found that there *was* some mandatory guessing.
I found myself with three galaxy clusters accounted for, and a small area that was closed down by the clusters. I could guess that there should be a fourth cluster, given that each level had more clusters than the previous one; plus the interface allows for four cluster boxes. But nothing was explicitely telling me to watch out for that!
Still very glad of the little time I spent on here. :-)
Technically no: Galaxies may not be rectangular, so one square can be confirmed safe. Additionally, you can press Submit on the first 3 galaxies to confirm that there is more to find.
This is an awesome concept! I could definitely see this becoming a full game!
Delightful.
Cool concept. Bug: if I lose just 1 heart, the game freezes on me, and I can no longer do anything without refreshing the page.
Thanks for letting me know! It seems that the new damage animation is blocking clicks. I will fix that ASAP! [edit: fixed now!]
Game was alright, pretty short I guess but man is it hard to picture the rotational symmetry lol.
I was quite confused by the rules (I thought, does the placement of the dots have any meaning? Why can you change the arrangement when you click on them again? At one point I was wondering if you wrote a number in binary). If it's for hinting, i suggest turning the dots 45 degrees (so each dot matches a direction).
Would be nice to have something procedurely generated (though checking if it can be solved without guessing is hard.)
Really I would make it more clear what the "rules" are.
