Thanks for checking out the game! Just to clear up any confusion: the game definitely wasn't 'fully made by AI.' It’s custom-coded from scratch using the Odin programming language and Raylib.
I absolutely did use AI as an assistant to help debug loops, write math logic, and troubleshoot syntax—which fits squarely within the jam rules permitting AI coding assistance. However, all the engine architecture, state management, and grid systems were designed and engineered manually.
The 'procedural' audio and graphics I mentioned in the devlog aren't AI-generated assets either; they are real-time code formulas calculating sine waves and custom GLSL shaders at runtime to keep the game completely assetless. The irony of getting an automation comment on a game about human manual garbage collection is pretty spot on, though! Thanks for playing!
I hate to say it but considering that the UI has the generic cybernetic style distinct to AI, and the fact that you wrote this very response with AI as well (because I can tell), I doubt that.
I liked the sounds and visuals, but honestly, I didn't understand anything. I just kept changing the same cell over and over again, pressing 1, 2, 3, and eventually won.
I'll try and figure out how to make the game more intuitive. You just sort the blocks into the colored columns, But you can clear blocks by row, column, or even diagonally if all the cell match in the corresponding blocks.
Thanks for trying my game! I appreciate the feedback.

I'm not sure a game made entirely with AI counts towards a beginner's jam.

Oh and I am a beginner. I have never entered a game jam and completed a project yet. AI helped me do that.

Amazing concept, loved the graphics, and i cannot believe you did this only using a graphic library and odin. Absolutely enjoyed it
I'm not sure about how well it adheres to the theme, but im ranking you high on the others
Thanks for checking out my game!! I appreciate it.
