In what way does your game fit the theme?
Our game starts with a triumph of chaos: unpredictable magic books wander around unleashed, endangering the library. A player must master the chaos and put things back to order.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. Except music.

I had fun playing your game. I think you should add the main menu so people won’t get into the game right away. Aside from that, I think it’s a great game!
loved it!!!!!!!!!
Truly chaotic, I loved it! The music, the art and the gameplay is awesome, fun and unique! There is a bug where there is no more space for books at all, or just for the one you grabbed and it makes the player stuck. Had to restart first, but got a good run after that. Overall it's a great game, maybe a little smaller monkey and a couple levels, like different books comes as you pass the levels, etc, could go a long way! I could imagine a game where you start from a part of the library and gets bigger levels, more type of books, and well, you imagination is the limit.
The game looks really cool! I loved the way it was set up, the location, and the monkey. It was one of the few games that felt like chaos was appropriate. I'd love it if you could also check out our game if you've got the time!

Really nice graphics and music. Like the other comment mentioned I suggest adding a different button grab books because it's difficult to switch between WASD and E.
Overall nice job. I enjoyed the game.
I'd appreciate it if you could check out our game too
I like the concept here, especially the effect of each book that work very well with the theme of the Jam. However I've seen a bug where there were two books of different color remaining but the places remaining in the bookshelves are of the same color.
Pretty fun game. I really like the art style. Player's movement is good. Trying to catch this books and put them back is really chaotic. Music fits perfectly. I kinda got stuck because there was no empty space for a book i was holding. Overall very good game :)
Interesting concept! It works well, feels like you are at a daycare putting kids to be lol. I like that the dash allows you to yeet the books away that start to pingpong you around.
I love this game! the art style and music are so nice and it fills the void in my heart that yearned for a game where you play as an orangutan organizing magical books in a library. Also he say "egh?" a lot which is good. Great job guys!
Nice game! I like the atmosphere! Think I might have enountered a bug twice where there were more books than free space on the shelves...
The game is amazing! From the art, the graphics and the game design all are awesome. However, I couldn't find the 1 last book no matter how hard I search for that, maybe it's the bug of a game, so hope you can fix it and really want to play this game again ^^
Really nice graphics and an innovative concept! The audio gets a bit too loud at times, but maybe that's just me. I really like the random level generation too! Great job!
It was very fun! I think monkey got trolled because I can't find one of the books. Didn't get to see the ending. Good work especially on the art and music!
I love the art and the setting of the game. The gameplay is also simple yet very fun. Great work!
Nice concept! I would have loved an index or table of contents describing what effects each book had on you as a little menu that also went with the library theme. Very good job!
Interesting game !
I suggest adding left mouse click to grab books because it's difficult to switch between WASD and E. And I think the effects are too loud compared to music.
Still great work !
this is very fun..i like it
can u check my game
This is very CHAOTIC! I love this game
the game is quite interesting, I like the art, but I was very confused about what I'm supposed to do.
I dunno what happening, but i like monkey and I like chaos!
