How does you game fit the theme?
You are a young child, pretending to be a ninja in his house!

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote ALL code, and I want to pass out. Second team member made all art, third made all music and sound. The ONLY "asset" is the ending credits which has the script of The Bee Movie for whatever reason

The music and art is great! but I found myself stuck in the first scene the character won't move, but the game is nice and cute and other than that great job!

Developer

I have talked with with my fellow developer who speaked to you earlier, regarding not being able to move. We have not gotten any reports of this happening, and have concluded that this is a hardware issue on your side. Possibly a bad key on your keyboard

yeah I got it fixed a while ago and played the game  haha, thanks for replying.

Submitted

i'm having the same issue, how did you fix it?

Loved this game in its entirety - the looks, the sound design, and the gameplay for sure! Everything mentioned made for an adorable game, and reminds me of when I was a little child, running around the house and such. Impressed that this was made in a week!

Super cute game, loved the interpretation of the theme.

What a cute game! I love how seriousness juxtaposes the nonchalant attitude of the other family members! I didn't know that there was a dash button, and it wasn't need to beat the game. Adding an element that requires the dash would be nice, such as dashing past a sleeping dog.

Developer

Omg! The team was actually just talking about that! There will be a park level in the final release, thinking something with rocks and dashing, where if you fall off, you get "sent back to HQ" haha,

Freakin adorable! Reminds me of my days sneaking around the house to get my toys without my parents noticing. Also I'm glad I'm not the only kid to put his stuffed animals in the freezer. he was a penguin, it reminded him of home...

Developer(+1)

Haha, we took a lot of inspiration from our own childhood, this is why the dad has an office, *based off of my dad*. And I always hid my sisters monkey in the microwave for some reason. And we all loved to play pretend as a kid, and thought we were so much cooler then what we actually looked like running around the house

Submitted(+1)

Loved the easter-egg in the end-credits. Its still rolling! Hahaha!

Developer(+3)

Thanks!  Ya haven't timed the credits yet xD. The entire script is there, had to be cut into 16 pieces and stitched together to fit in the game engine!

Submitted(+3)

Adorable game, the graphics and the sound design work together so well.  It made for a memorable experience. Plus the end credits threw me for a loop cuz B

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thank you! Our sound designer is great at what he does. And ya we joked about how little we could put in the credits, so we just through in the Bee Movie script to make it longer haha. Kind of funny that it took 16 slices of the bee movie in order to import properly, then I just stitched it together

amazing

Developer

Thank you! We worked hard with what we had and our schedules. Game continues development so if any suggestions!

Submitted(+1)

Adorable game with a cute art style. However, it's a bit hard to play on my machine due to the screen resolution, and I couldn't find a way to change it. I could still finish the game, but it was hard to read text and see my parents coming.

Developer

Hey! yes, sorry with the jam time restrictions we could not optimize for lower end machines. Updates will allow for resolution scaling in the coming updates!

Submitted(+1)

Nice graphics and concept. I think the objectives might be bugged in areas as I was learning how to save the duck from the "cryo chamber" and then it jumped to taking the koala from the piano which I found odd and then after grabbing the toilet paper and returning to the room I had won the game? might of been a one off but if your continuing development of the game perhaps its worth looking into. Really nice game regardless.

The Kenny glitch, I could've sworn we fixed that, damn, right on that then! We have had this very odd occurrence happen multiple times, however it is random so hard to find the source. Currently am coding a possible fix, though can not submit that fix, if you try replaying there is a good chance of it running properly 

Developer

However, I notice you believe after healing Master Lion with the toilet paper, ending the game is a bug. nope! that is the end of the game right now! 

Submitted(+1)

Lotta fun. In the future it would be cool to have some direction on what your next objective is. I enjoyed it a lot.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! We have gotten that request a few times, so now it is at the top of our todo list!

Very cute :D I love the execution :D

Developer

Thank you!

Nice game! Cute idea for a stealth game.

I'd give your player a map, since the child would probably know all of the house by hand, while we don't. Also, the "patrols" are a bit easy to avoid. Either add more (like an older sibling, for example, or a grandparent that stays in one place but can fall asleep for a different patrol behavior - similar to cameras in Metal Gear Solid) or make their paths change between each "mission". As of now, it's very easy to clear 2/3 objectives in a row without even coming across one of the patrols.

To be fair, the worst problem of this game is that it finishes too quickly - which is great for a game jam, but makes me want to play more. And that's honestly a great problem to have!

All in all, I enjoyed this submission! Great job!

Developer(+1)

Hello! Thank you for the review! I do agree that more path variety should be added, that is probably our next step, you're map idea is excellent! definitely going to look into that. We are also going to be adding more levels, so we thought about adding more enemies in those.

You're last comment is definitely a confidence boost! Makes me feel like I made the right choice to make a steam page.

All criticism is deeply talked about with the team, and have been seeing some trends with comments. Thank you JMS!
