This game was so much fun to play! I love the art style and how polished the game looks and works! As others have mentioned I had some trouble with the button inputs for some of the minigames but other than that this is super cool! :D

Very fun game, I immediately reminded me of Wario and their minigames which I always enjoyed! I'll probably keep this game as a fun little time killer!

Very cool game. I like how the number of lives links to the theme and how zen the character is. I also liked the colour scheme and art design. Sometimes the square for the jumper wouldn't be visible.

The game would kill the player before they could see what was happening and the game would sometime not register button inputs

Pretty fun selection of mini games. I also liked the artstyle. Some ames were harder than others such as the jump or flying due to the expanding screen not giving you any time to react. The fly minigame is also very harsh with its collision, it could be a little easier.

The game idea is very unique and the art is amazing, my only game criticism is that its hard to see your character when the thought bubble is first expanding.

This was really good! Only issues are the ones that have already been said with the jump and fly game.

Love the graphics and the idea for different minigames.

Little confused on what I was meant to do for some of the minigames so some how to play guide would be nice.

Very fun and nice variety but I think the difficulty increases too fast and I don't like that the 'Jump' minigame begins with a spike before you see the player

Very nice and addictive game made me angry but for a good reason. Only problem I had was with the ying yang game and the jump one. The rest mode I just didn't understand and the jump one was out of frame in the beginning.

Loved the concept of the game and the visuals were quite polished for the amount of time given, the only issue I found was in the Jump minigame as the player object would start outside of the given circle, making it difficult to not die almost instantly. Otherwise, I loved both the concept and the execution, what gave you the idea to create this?

Cute idea, great presentation, but overall I think it suffers from the "I developed this game" balancing issue. Some of the games are unplayable before you lose because the player starts offscreen! Still really fun, and could be amazing with a little more playtester polish.

Very fun and unique and surprisingly visually polished. Love the theme. However, there were a few problems like jump inputs running out for 'Jump' and 'Fly'. Also had issues not losing the 'Jump' game because the player is out of frame in the beginning.

Thanks for playing! The circle is linked to the size of the window playing, so during development it looked like the player would have enough time to identify what they were controlling. Oh well, thanks for pointing it out!

this is really good. the gameplay is really fun for only having a few different games and I ended up finding the rest game the hardest lol. the music is really fitting for the game and the art work is awesome.
