I really like how the game looks and theme of it all, with all the clowns being terrifying to look at until you find their balloons and befriend them. I don't see how it works with the theme, but looking at the other comments, I assume that it's more clear when you die/get damaged(I didn't get spotted a single time.) I was also a little unsure about where to go after pacifying all the clowns, but it didn't take too long to get to the end. Overall, it's a pretty good game, but I think some more varying gameplay other than stealthily avoiding clowns would make it even better!

cool game just fix the map design and collisions and its really good

love the art and the jump scares, those were executed really well. Doesn't really fit with the paralysis theme unless you die, so maybe that could have been shown differently in the same context (for example, maybe if you see the clowns you get paralyzed for a couple seconds and there is a timer that you have to get to your show, so avoid getting paralyzed). Otherwise great game, not really replayable but cool concept.

really like the art, but I felt a bit lost initially as to what was happening when playing.  collision on specifically the tents was a bit jank.

Submitted

Simple gameplay that isn't very repayable, but the art looks amazing!

Good art, collision is a bit jank, doesn't really fit with the Paralyzed theme.  It was a fun game to play

understandable game play. it was pretty fun, worked well, I kind of see how it matches the prompt, and the art was great.

Art is fantastic and really well done. It's short and sweet, which I think is too the games favor, as it doesn't overstay its welcome. I did run into some odd collision  issues that did sour the experience a bit, but overall it's a pretty good project.

Love the art and visuals. I think the game has lots of potential, but I think the game could have been longer.

Great Art and visuals. The game is a little short and the paralyzed aspect seems a little shoehorned in. The gameplay is too simple but the art keeps it playable.

Great art, and except for some funky collision pretty well coded, only problem is that its little short and I don't see the interaction with the prompt, but never less one of the best games in the jam.

The best-looking game in the game jam, however I don't understand where the paralyzed aspect comes into play. Also, the clowns aren't threatening enough because you will only game over when 3 clowns get you and there are only 4 clowns in the whole game. I don't find this game very entertaining because the gameplay is way too simple and repetitive.

Also you should make a web build of the game!

Amazing art! I was confused when trying to open the game, and the balloon thing wasn't obvious to me, but other than that, it had a fun premise and a cool little world to explore.  Would definitely like to see things expanded on!
