Nice Game! I really enjoyed the type of art style you used in the game and I enjoyed how the game connected to real life with the programmer and the designer. It was almost like we were apart of it some how which feels good as a player. The only thing that annoyed me a bit was the music, maybe make it a bit longer, besides that you did a great job!

EXPECTATIONI had a lot of fun with this! Easy and smooth to move the character around, and I like how you used that dialogue within the game to explain the jam theme to the player. It is a game that can actually stand alone on its own outside of the jam!
The difficulty progression is awesome, had fun being introduced to a new "bug" each level to keep it interesting and it was actually challenging to encounter them all at once, so it felt good when I finally beat it. Only suggestion I'd make is to change the exit portal to be more visible, I just baaarely saw it. White on yellow made it a little hard to see. Luckily when I finished a level all I had to do is kill myself and I'd respawn at the exit. lol! But maybe a different colored exit with particle effects on the outer edge could be something to consider.
Really great entry!!! Awesome work! :D

EXPECTATIONI enjoyed the fourth wall break of planning for the Game Jam, but it actually detracts from the theme. If you had said the programmer has squashed all bugs, and then let the player figure out what was broken, it would have fit better. I also noticed that after a minute or two the bug simply stopped happening, more than likely to help the player finish a stage. Still, fun concept overall. Good job!

PathologicOk the last stage is frustrating but I had to make it to the end for my pride ahah
The idea for the game is funny, I liked that fourth wall break with the developers explaining what's going on in the game.
I didn't completely get how the "disappearing colors" stage works, it seems that after some time it stops working to actually make the game easier for the player.
Even if I think the idea is interesting the result is probably more frustrating then fun for the player.
Also I didn't get the theme of the jam in this game, the developers tell me what's going to happen and that's exactly what happens.
The graphics are nice, the music is fine but a bit repetitive.

Tales of the Cursed WordGood game !!! Jump is smooth and idea is great. Dialogue between design and programmer gives context to get more immersed in the game !!! Good job.
In v4.0 it was really hard for me to take the last color on the top right :(

Honest, the magicianAwesome game! I liked how each version got progressively harder. It was confusing though that there was no end scene but instead brings you to version 3.0. Unless, if that wasn't the end and I didn't know.

Your tools are notFun Idea, a little but also a little bit frustrationg when all the bugs came together ;D

Super Fluffy AdventureGood controls! I liked the game a lot. So much frustration haha.
Some critical feedback:
- Mouse disappearing in the main menu for WebGL is disorienting. If they should use only keys, then there should be text for that.
- The art seems like a great follow-along from BTP. I've seen many learning developers try to emulate what he does from YouTube videos, but they rarely pull it off. I had to do a double-take of your username to make sure it wasn't one of his games! It is great that you did so, but maybe for the next jam, try to branch out and develop your own style! I actually give him that feedback for a lot of game jams since he tends to stick to his Edmund McMillen-inspired comfort zone. Push yourself into new styles! The art should support the gameplay. Don't slap the same artwork on every game.
- Confused what happens when I got all of the colors. I respawned a couple of times before it went to the next scene.
Overall, great job with your game! I loved the music and artwork.
Congrats on your entry!
