In what way does your game fit the theme?
It was originally supposed to be pretty chaotic, but we had to limit our ideas.

So nice! Simple, fun, easy to understand and a neat concept. I agree with one of your commenters below with this idea having a lot of cool potential. Very nice!

Solid visuals and innovation, was a bit short though :)

A very fun and interesting game. I think the concept of turning picture into your minions is really creative and has a lot of potential. The game was a bit too short to my liking but I understand that it's a game jam after all and you don't really have that much time to make games. Still a very fun one with lots of potential. Good luck on the jam!

I see the idea you want to say and I think it cant be a good mechanic that you choose but in this step, the game is too short and have no content but I like to see the idea turn into a big game.

This game has extraordinary potential! really liked this one, the art and the idea of bringing back to life the petroglyphs and controlling them are amazing. Didn´t feel the chaos tbh, but I really want to see more of this interesting experience in the future!

Interesting game! I don't fully understand how the charge mechanic works, like the big guy would attack the enemies but the bat just flies into the corner. Other than that and the lack of levels tho, it's a neat game with an interesting mechanic and pretty good graphics!

Thank you! Some of the mechanics were indeed a little iffy, but most of it is fixed in the new version linked in the description ;)

The look of the game and the characters should be appreciated...

Also the idea of making images alive

I could tell what the mechanic was supposed to do and appreciated the effort, it was a cool idea.

Not super chaotic in its current state.

Great job!
