How does your game fit the theme?
Our game fits the theme because renovating the house includes replacing old appliances and starting new, as well as updating décor, symbolizing the end of old ways of living and the beginning of a new way of life. Renovating the house also is a new beginning for the played character, ending a corporate career to begin a new business in the house as a bed and breakfast.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
yes

Based on the description I expected to actually fix, clean, and decorate a house. The three mini-games don't make me feel like I am doing any of those things, and weren't fun to play once, let alone over and over again.

The gameplay was a bit lacking, but you did a really great job with the audio setting the mood of the game. Good job!

Submitted

It has been YEARS since I last played a game like that. I really loved it !

Well done !

Interesting idea - well done!

Not sure I got how the fixing minigame worked, at least I still don't fully understand the rules why the connection would break between nodes. Frustration meter was accurate :')

Audio was good, mood was strong and I think this fits the theme well.

Very cool game! I think the star was all the custom audio, for the scope of a game jam that's really impressive and something a lot of dev teams don't flesh out. Overall really enjoyed the games and the art too, the only issue I had was some lag and some UI remaining open for longer than I should have. Overall great submission!

Very nice concept, the mini games are easy to understand and satisfying to execute. I wish there was a little more visual impact on the room while renovating though. I love the music and ambient sound on the background, props to the sound artist!

I finished first room completely and I kinda liked it, this game is relaxing and vibing.

I really like the different sound and graphic atmospheres that you managed to create depending on the epoch. And the fact that the mini games have a direct effect on the picture is very cool.
I really enjoyed playing this game, good job!

Loved the soundtrack and the different minigames! Made me feel like in an old movie! Nice submission!

Amazing game! Time styled music and radio stations were the highlight, Trashtalking Thomas Edison or the egg therapy made me LOL. The minigames were easy enough and fun to play, the art style was beautiful, the soundtrack made it sooo enjoyable. The only thing I wished for it to having is an ending. For me it just stood there after cleaning all the rooms, with only a change in text, an ending would've been the cherry on top.

Anyways, GREAT game!!! Really enjoyed it!

Nice art style and funky soundtrack. Pretty enjoyable gameplay.

Interesting and effective use of the new ai tools. Music is amazing, minigames can be a bit confusing at first but are fun once you get them :]
