Updated the title screen!

I redesigned it quite a bit and unified the Japanese & English versions.

I think it’s more readable now — what do you think?

For this one, it just happened to be faster for me to design it myself than use generative AI 😅

Michi-Suji Puzzle's title screen in Spanish

Michi-Suji Puzzle's title screen in Spanish

While working on localization,

I found out that "michi" means "kitty" in Spanish 🐱
Feels kind of like fate… 👀

So I think I'll keep the title "Michi-Suji Puzzle"

("suji"... well... 😅)

Thank you so much for playing the demo today.
It really means a lot.

I’ve been quietly improving the game little by little,
so I hope it felt a bit nicer to play.

If you enjoyed it, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Undo system improved 👀

It used to behave weirdly with multiple characters,
but now it's much more consistent.

I tried your demo and played for over an hour 😄
Had a lot of fun!
The laser and enemy mechanics were especially interesting to solve 👀

Nice work!

I adjusted the background so it gradually shifts from daytime to evening as stages progress.

Today's dev progress:
• Adjusting level balance
(Does the image stage seem difficult?)

Also, the demo's **average playtime is now 1h 45m**.

Thank you to everyone trying the demo!
I expected people to play for a few minutes, so this really surprised me.

Looks tricky, right?

The demo includes 15 stages, and they get surprisingly challenging.
But every stage can earn a gold medal if you find the right solution.

The clear animation

The clear animation

The clear animation used to be very simple.
Then I realized — the moment of solving is the real reward.
So I added confetti, applause, and glowing effects.
Designing the feeling is harder than designing the puzzle.

Game feel matters more than I expected.
