Game's Take on the Theme
The Bosses are all bound to a mechanism that spins arms. These arms, while spinning, create a pattern for the motion of the boss.

Did your team make the majority of the art and music during the jam?
Yes

Idea implementation is great.

Interesting game, I like the idea of bosses having a weak spot, each of which with a great and unique boss design that I enjoyed. Good job on the game.

This was a charming game!  Solid use of colour for communication on weak points and danger.  I also love the mouth sounds haha.  Nice work!

Fun chill game, looks great, cute sound effects. some light background music would go a long way but otherwise really nice.

I think the art in this game is really charming. The art style is pretty, the color direction is really clear which I always have problem with in my own work, and the gameplay is really relaxing.
This game could have been even better if it had some really relaxing music in the background and better mouse controls. I understand that the game is much better mobile and it wont really affect my controls rating but it would have been a nice little addition.
Good Game!

Love the title!

The art style is great the sound effects funny and using a spirograph type of movement for the bosses is definatly unique!

This is one of the cases that prove that often the simplest game loops can be the most addictive ones.

Great job!

My personal whishlist:

  • Background/Ambient sound
  • Better mouse support
  • Fullscreen button (you can still edit the page to add one)
  • Keep the funny sfx!

Thank you for making a cute simple game. I think others have said but there is a lot of serious intense games, so something to change up the pace was nice!

I very much appreciate how simple and to the point the game is in its design. Very easy to get into, extremely visually clear, and a generally relaxing play. After playing so many high octane boss rushes, it's very nice to find a more relaxing game in this roster of submissions. Great job!

The first mobile game jam I ever played, and this did not let me down!

It is simple, yet super fun! I liked how smooth the movement is, for me personally I don't think it was an issue whatsoever! I tried on my phone, so maybe thats why..

It surely need more attention, the art is so cute! Well done!

An interesting game, had issues with the controls as it often wouldn't even register I swiped causing me not to move at all. Would prolly would better on phone than with mouse.

Don't know if its my end but there was no music.

But overall its a unique submission and could certainly be a nice little time waster for phones with a little more polish.

Thanks for your feedback ! Indeed we tweeked the controls so that it was best suited for mobile use.
Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to put in the sound design and music.

Love the art, but such cute game has quite a difficulty, character a bit hard to control, like sometimes it feels like character get too much speed from the swipe.
