Really like this chill, relax game.

Submitted(+1)

Very fun and super hectic once you get all five baths running. I really liked how easy it was to clean/fill/heat up so rotating between all of the different tubs and managing them felt super smooth. The rate at which customers came in also applied the perfect amount of pressure to keep going and going throughout the day.

I would’ve loved to see more upgrades available, like expanding the bathhouse, or offering different things like a sauna, etc. But I definitely understand the time crunch from the jam makes it difficult to add more. Really love this foundation for the game you built. Quite addictive!

Developer

Appreciate the comments on the balance, we tried our best to have the game go through a slow initial phase, letting it peak, and wrapping it up with a lose screen in a reasonable amount of time for a game jam! Yes, hopefully we can implement a more fleshed out upgrade system at some point.

Really good game play and mechanic!

I really loved the gameplay and it was a fun

It's so cuteee!! I love the gameplay loop. I just wish there were more upgrades and things to juggle. Like, I would love to also check in the guests at the front too!

Submitted(+1)

Really awesome game! The gameplay loop is fun and I think all the animals are cute. I love the line "they let me put a yuzu on my head"

Developer

Thanks, we had a lot of fun thinking of reviews in the animals' personalities!

Very well done! The art and animations were adorable, as was the whole concept in general. The fourth day was the first time it really felt like a lot to manage, and I was running around right clicking on whatever I could, very in the weeds! I also enjoyed the SDV-esque end of day report.

I'd have liked to spend some of my extra cash on tubs that retained heat better or something, as an upgrade aside from just more tubs. Or to change the walls/ground aesthetics.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah, we also felt that past buying all the bathtubs,  there's not much else to spend the money on. We definitely wanted to implement a more comprehensive upgrade system at some point (better dragons, staff to hire etc), but that was out of scope for this jam unfortunately.

fun game! It felt good to play with the accompanying sound effects and visual effects. The polish on this is pretty nice! Would be nice to see this game grow because the gameplay loop is pretty fun.

This got me thinking a lot about Spirittea, a game I love about taking care of a bathhouse

Developer

Wow, Spirittea looks really cool! I've never seen it before.

Really cute game! The management part is fun and interesting. The visuals are great and the SFX as well. Overall great little game!

Submitted(+1)

Loved this! It's very fun and reminds me a lot of old-timey games I used to play. Also the art was super cute :)

Submitted(+1)

Very fun! Wow, really loved this one. Charming!

Really nice twist on the restaurant management genre. Loved it.

Developer

Thanks, appreciate it! 

Submitted(+1)

Awesome concept! Theme is fantastic; reminds me of the Papa's Pizzeria etc. games from flash days!

Thanks for playing! For us, it was Diner Dash and similar games.

Makes sense!!!

I love this cute game. It has a really good atmosphere

Developer

Thanks for playing, we focused on making it cute. 

Submitted

I liked it, it's like there aren't enough upgrades here for dragons or water,the animations and art are really cool, well done! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! We had plans for an upgrade system and even a staff hiring feature, but we ran out of time unfortunately. 

Submitted

A very fun game. You did a good job!
I think I can guess what anime inspired you xD

Developer

I think you will have guessed right! :) we love the ducks from Spirited Away.

Love the game! Very fun to play. But using a lot of right click is really hurt my hand.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing, and sorry about the right click! Maybe we should've gone for holding instead of clicking...

Submitted(+1)

reminds me of Spirit Away the cleaning bathtub scene, so cute. But why right-click instead of left-click? 

Developer(+1)

Honestly, I think it was due to my love for Terraria!

Submitted(+1)

Love the art and vibe of the game! Feel like I can keep continuously play the game on and on. Enjoyed!
