Works fine until you use the spacebar functionality, then the mouse has a mind of it's own and it's an unplayable mess. Maybe it's just on my end.
Hmm the mouse issue comes and goes.
A little problem is that if you restart the level it solves it. Makes for an easy walkthrough:
1 Click restart
2 Click yes
3 Goto 1

It still has the game-destroying flaw of the numbers around the board immediately showing you whether you placed the dark squares correctly or not.
I don't understand why someone would go through so much trouble of creating a great presentation and then ruin the game completely by putting such a horrible feature in it.
Well baba44713, a warning about that is that in a couple of the last levels it did not actually work correctly anyway bit of a bug maybe unless I am missing something.
See Row 3 and column 7 here

It's not a bug. Your third row has five squares instead of four.
I pressed enter for a new row and it submitted. Grrr.
To explain the above - the feature detects whether the dark squares are on correct places, so you can easily pass any level simply by filling out rows/columns until the numbers change. You do have to be careful not to put additional dark squares (which you did), but that's that.
This feature trivializes the accomplishment, and puts disincentive to actually take effort to get out of a hard spot. And even if you do not cheat, it immediately shows you if you made a mistake. It's a condescending and unnecessary feature which puts me off the game completely.
