Hello, I'm working on a Lua-based game and hope to get some feedback.

Edit: the game is in closed Beta. You need a Steam account if you would like to playtest it!

Thanks for the nice comments!
An update is coming soon so hopefully the issue mentioned by Roland should be fixed.

Also, I wrote a short article about the "longest chain" algorithm used in the game:

Nice article. I didn't know about Warnsdorf's rule. I may have uses for it.

Hey everybody, the second prototype of Chains is out!
This time around the focus is on progression and difficulty.
Please give it a try I'm really looking forward to any feedback
regarding the difficulty and pacing of the game.

Roland, hopefully the bug you mentioned before should be fixed.
Thanks for taking a look!

Is there any reason it will only run on Windows? If anything, I expect it to run on a phone. I wanted to play it but I obviously won't buy and install Windows just to try it, and it won't run in Wine. The standard method of getting Windows LÖVE game to run (disassembling it into bare source code and running directly) doesn't works either.
