Well, first of all it looks good! your (he)art is great and combined with the right choice of fonts and colors, it gives a very nice feel to the game. The sounds and animations are also on point, I especially liked the way the hearts dissolve. It's satisfying and pretty. Then you added some humour too, interactions, good UX... I mean, did you work on it 4 days without sleeping? haha

There wasn't much sleep involved haha, thank you for the kind words!

Heellooooo! OMG, it looks so good and the game play is great. And instructions?! Even the landing page has graphics! Great presentation.

Oh, and I forgot to comment on all of the interactions! So awesome! _It's a *heart* knock life for me._

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing!

Loved it! The artstyle was pleasing, the music was a good choice, and the gameplay was simple but still fun. The heart puns were love-ly (ha), and it was a decent amount of gameplay for a game jam game too. Nice work!

Loved the artstyle! Very soft and monochromatic, fun dialogue and fitting music. Are you a 2d artist by any chance? 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! 2D art is something I really enjoy doing but I wouldn't consider myself a 2D artist. Just something I dabble in!

I saved Heartsville! The funs were fantastic, everything looked and felt great.  I appreciated that the enemies and heart pieces didn't respawn, made the game a pleasure to play through.

The theme was very clear here, nice! The music & art style were great, and fit together really well. All in all, a great game!

"HELLO - You can tell that there went a lot of heart into this masterpiece." :D
Jokes aside: This is a really well done and executed game which incorporates the jams these beatifully! It looks really good, sounds really good and plays really good. Overall my top contender so far :D

Oh, thank you for making this game <3 ( <- Well, this heart is looks better then that on the games  page. But now the "broken" pun won't work anymore)

The art, the music and the sounds are so cute. I couldn't get enough of the heart puns (even on of the villagers say something else).
All in all a really great game :D
