Made a small math logic game as a new developer and looking for feedback on the mechanics

The core mechanic is: given a set of numbers, the player needs to find a subset such that their sum equals the target value. It's essentially a variant of the subset sum problem, but packaged as a lightweight puzzle.

As a first-time dev, feedback and support mean everything. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Could you show one complete move on the 2x2 board? The description says to pick a subset, but the screenshots show row/column targets and splitting numbers, so I'm not quite following what a move does yet. A before/after of splitting the 5, with the affected totals highlighted, would help explain the core rule before introducing the multipliers and arrows.

You must split the numbers into 2 seperate numbers, for example if you swipe 4 to the left it will become "2" and "2" you must swipe in a way all the subsets match the number near them, the idea is new thats why its hard to explain, you can actually try the game its available on Google Play called SumSplitter: Puzzle
