This is a simple puzzle game where you are shown the solution for a short time, in which you must memorize it.
After that, the board is cleared, and you have exactly 10 seconds to solve the puzzle from memory.
Worked on this for about 5 hours altogether. Enjoy.

I enjoyed that. Hard I had no chance but medium I could just about manage it!
Nice flashcard game! Easy was so easy, medium was quite funny and hard was impossible! But I'm sure it's me, I'm bad with this kind of games.
Fine concept and use of the theme. Fine idea with the hard-difficulty - was quite hard.
Hello there! I like how you used the theme, but I think it would have been doubly effective to "balance" the game a bit so that the viewing/memorizing part could also be set to 10 seconds instead of 20.
I think a game of this type would have benefited a bit more from simple sprites instead of numbers, as well, though then the memorization might have been more complex...
Good luck!
I like the idea! The memorizing phase should be much shorter for easy mode.
Thanks for the ideas. I wanted to use different symbols, and indeed, different memorization time for different difficulties, but just didn't have the time.
Nice simple game. My best score on medium was 14,308 and my best score on hard was 16,938. At first I kept trying to click "1" first on medium mode.
It took me a few tries to figure out what to do; the "symbols" bar on the right implies that you'll be dragging those cards onto the play field, or perhaps pressing keys to select them, and I had to play it a few times before I realised that I was supposed to click the squares in order.
I was hoping to see some good memory games! After all, I think 10 seconds is about the length of a person's working memory.
I feel like it would have been more intuitive had it started with 1 instead of 0, but that's just me.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Good flashcard game, I like the concept
