This game was pretty great, the challenges were creative and rewarding. If I had one critisism it would be that some of the puzzles were just clicking on the image parts until it's the right one, which is too easy.

Thanks:) My goal was to make relaxing puzzle - i know that it's not so challenging sometimes:)
Very good concept, music, conception...
About the game itself, the only reproach I can make is that the "winner" screen is quite ugly compared to the rest of the game. That's about it.
20 medals worth 25 each is kind of huge, as the game is not difficult.
Anyway, that was great !

here is special meaning of the end screen :)
This really is a pretty original game. I really like how you change it for every level. I appreciate you showing off these wonderful pictures. I am someone who's always loved geography. Well, I guess it's kind of too small for geography. Whatever, it's a good game.
You really do have to be precise with a lot of this stuff. I'm not even quite sure what the title means. I think the sounds are pretty cool. I love how there's a medal after every level. I think my recent medals haven't been working.
This was an interesting diversion. Nice selection of images, interesting mechanics, I was spurred on by not only the desire to complete the game just to see all the images, but also to see what novelties continued to show up puzzle after puzzle. There was no true challenge to the game, so I never felt disheartened, but on the same token, you were careful not to throw some moon logic in, or asinine arbitrary infeasibly hard puzzle from left field.
True, some levels were less 'puzzle' than toy, like the one where it was essentially 52-pickup, but, where other game makers would have made it feel boring or a chore, just the act of sliding things into place, through a multitude of filters, made the experience feel whole. It also felt like you were trying to push the envelope and re-define what a generic jigsaw puzzle could be in the electronic era.
Now, unfortunately, I come to the sad part. Why I docked you half a star. Honestly, it came from the music and the level completion animations. The gameplay was intriguing enough, and the visuals stunning enough that the music fell to the background, and it was simple and repetitive enough that it began falling on my ears in the same way that a 20-second loop would. The solving animations were a pine cone in a fruit salad. A player would complete a puzzle, flexing their brains a little, and after making an image whole and beautiful again, they would be greeted sharply with a staticky jumble, which, at first, was a jarring shock, and by the end, was just the most unsatisfying 'Level complete' notifications ever.
Still, for all I harped on about those two things, that's still only caused me to dock half a star between them. The game is still amazing, and a real treat to play through. Thank you for bringing this to us, and I hope to see more submissions by you.

Thanks a lot, for so detailed review!
I really appreciate it!
And will do my best to make nice next works.
Really different, but fun. The puzzles were somewhat challenging, but in a way that made it fun. Each picture was great, and the objective was easy enough to figure out, without making it too easy.
The music was okay, not too overbearing and not too distracting. It also fit well enough with the pictures. An option to change the music between several tracks would be good.
Not a bad game at all, I look forward to another one.
