What was the most challenging part of making your entry?
TRYING TO BALANCE game mechanics with the absurd but adorable theatrics we came up with
What was the most fun part?
This is the first time I've tried adding voice acting to a game and that was THE BEST ;D having my pals voice act was super fun!
Anything else to add? (important controls, assets used, special mentions, etc)
CONTROLS:
A / D for left and right
Space / W for jump
R for Cheer/Heckle
E for Throw Tomato (if you have one! gotta catch them first! you didnt bring your own. no one told you you could bring fruit)

Very fun. well executed and complete for a short time frame. I found the story/mechanic to be interesting.
A very solid entry, everything comes together here for a quick fun experience. It has a funny story and great voice acting. My only suggestion would be to make the jump be more variable, like being to tap jump to have a smaller jump, or hold to jump higher, I found I was always jumping over tomatoes.
Awesome entry!
I love both idea and gfx. :)
Very well thought game. New concept. Great work.
really enjoyed the game, jumping around blocking the tomatoes was my favourite part. nice graphics and fun gameplay. great entry.
This was fantastic. The art, music and dialogue was all amazing, and I loved the whole idea of the game! It was a little hard to intercept the tomatoes, but i eventually got into the rhythm of the jumps. Great work!
thank you sensei
Amazing take on the theme! hilarious concept, loved all the sounds and voices, that was awesome -- and quite a challenge to block the tomatoes ! fun idea. Really great work, inspiring stuff!!
Really novel idea! Like the mechanic too, - good effort! :)
Not 100% sure what I was doing but like the other have great job on the art.
Good job to you and your 2 others in your tame :)
This is one of the more original games I have ever played in itch.io.
Let me see how I can start.
The art (pixel art, drawings) are just amazing. I really like how all the scenes, sprites, backgrounds, tie together. Looks so polished that it is almost impossible to believe it was done in one week (don't get me wrong, I don't think you are lying! =) ).
Music is cool, but voices are a BIG THUMBS UP!.
Physics might be jusssssst a little off, some small improvements would make the experience even better, but for this jam/entry, I don't think it affects too much.
The way you implemented the theme, just WOW. I would do the same to a friend, so I can relate to the game. What a cool way to say "you are the best" to a best friend :D
Overall, 10/10. This game has to be included in James' video. Period.
The art is awesome bruh...theme and design are good. I can feel like put in a lot of hard work, great job man
The game felt unique and very polished in sfx and visuals. Great work. Though, I always felt like everyone hates my fav. The kitty always gains highest points though.
Art is really spectacular. But have to agree with others here as well, was a little lost with the gameplay.
No worries, what did you find confusing?
Great idea and awesome art! The gameplay was a bit confusing for me unfortunately but the atmosphere was fantastic. I can see this has great potential!
This game is absolutely gorgeous!
That said, I do relate to Enjaku's feelings that some of the gameplay could be a little bit more clear.
But I love the concept and there is certainly a lot of polish in this game.
Great job!
I feel this! I'm not very good at the game my own self, and I helped make the darn thing. Thank you so much for playing. I hope it entertained you for a little bit, that's all I could ask for.
It entertained me for more than a little bit, Lie of the Beholder is great :)
Wow the game looks amazing and the music/SFX are great! Plus even voice acting! The art style is incredible and even just looking at it is fun. Very enjoyable and funny.
Thanks so much! :') I'm really glad you got a kick out of it, it was a blast to work on.
This was a fun game. It was a little hard to tell when I would be cheering or heckling. It was fun to toss tomatoes.
awesome game! nice visuals and music, the idea of the game is great too!
