Programming/Complexity: 11/20
Your average/above average scratcher could accomplish this, but it’d be relatively hard for new scratchers. Complexity=yes, because the variables were written in Spanish (I think) and it was hard for me to understand but after reading your script carefully, it wasn’t a problem doing a mini translation. The programming was nicely condensed, but there were multiple sprites with the same scripts.

Graphics: 2/20
Not really outstanding graphics, just two circles on the screen that left paths. You could include a storyline which would let you also change their images, such as a chasing game where the red dot “chases” you. The background was nonexistent.

Gameplay: 7/20
The gameplay was fun the first 3 times I played it. I enjoyed the mind exercise under pressure (the timer).  Then, I got extremely annoyed that I couldn’t beat level 2. I took about 15 tries and would’ve kept going or altering the script so that I could skip to level 3. The timer ruins the game. No offense, but I hated it from the start. The game would be so much better in my opinion without the 10 second time limit. I didn’t like that at all. Since it is a puzzley type game, you need time to think, not just to be constrained to 10 seconds. When you wrote casual game in the post requesting a review, I wasn’t expected for a nerve-racking experience with 10 seconds. That’s what kept you from getting a 10 or above.

Sound: 11/20
The sound doesn’t really match the title, but it made me feel like the little circles were technologically involved in something, so you could make the background a giant circuit board and make the circles squares, like pixels.

Originality: 13/20
I’ve never seen anything like it on the scratch website but have seen similar things on other websites. Still, I liked the general idea.

Thanks for your review. I really appreciate it.
I've changed the "nerve-racking experience with 10 seconds". I erased the time limit.
Now the player have all the time to solve the puzzles.
