Game doesn't load for me, I see the phaser boot message in console, but otherwise just a black screen.  Chrome/windows 10.

@staff0rd The loading time is quite long, it seems that the bgmusic is really weigthy. Can you wait a little and see if that's the problem?

Thanks for the feedbacks

I let it load for a bit and it ended up starting.  Really cool game, music very fitting.

Sometimes the match puzzle passes even though I've only matched two cards, not sure if that is expected or not.  Seems very dependent on the speed at which you can solve 4x4 puzzles.

On the second playthrough the game threw a lot of errors and ended up crashing after I solved one of the draws, errors below;

Also I received a sliding puzzle that was in fact unsolveable.  Is that expected?  I have a screen shot...

[staff0rd]

Just had a game where two sliding puzzles, different pictures, were both unsolveable.

Hello @staff0rd!

First of all thanks a lot for the feedback. We are working on the crashes right now, we've solved a few of them though . About the algorithm that creates random games, we're thinking about change it so there is no repeated puzzles on the game, it will increases the game playability. 

Cheers!

Why is there no loading screen? Game seems like it was frozen / nothing showed up and I almost exited it until I HIT F12 to see what's going on. Most people won't do that.

So what happens when a puzzle is unsolvable?  Can the game still be finished, or should I just restart?  For example, the following puzzles cannot be solved, they are broken;
