A really nicely made picross game. The number of puzzles wasn't huge, but I appreciate the personality that it got in return. (Especially that secret that wasn't who I was expecting.)
I'm really happy with the secret and people's reactions to it! As for the number of puzzles, it's possible we'll add some to the game in some form or another, so you can look forward to that.
The graphics are super cute, i never played picross before so i found it a bit hard to understand but in five minutes i was playing like nothing. i've absolutely loved the humor and the character's design, it's the soul of this game. and by the way, great color palette, i don't know if you made it from zero or you found it but please upload it to LosPec, it's really great, seriously.
Never been the best at picross but it can be very fun when you start to get the hang of it. Add in a little extra design and some dialog and boom you've one uped the picross game!
Really like the style of this game and the game board feels really good aswell. Great choice of color palette :D
Very cool game! You have done an excelent job!
I learned to play Picross for this <3
Really good audio direction and great visual execution.
Just brilliant. A professional quality game. I had so much fun with this as I love Picross! You've really done it justice, although I really can never get enough puzzles so it ended far too soon!
Art, music, gameplay, characters, world, it's all here and all amazing. Cannot rave about Pikupals enough, a stellar entry to the jam.
I had a lot of fun solving the puzzles in this. Thank you for making it.
I love the art style and it was very funny to unlock the aliens :D
Really cute game, I really enjoyed it. It's been a while since I played picross, so I'm pretty rusty. But I did enjoy the presentation a lot. Very solid game.
Amazing implementation, lovely graphics and great choice of color palette, lovely game :)
It's very well executed. A Picross game with great aesthetics, good music and a few help for beginners (integrated nicely into an little adventure mode). Great job!
I love picros and I loved playing this game :)
Did you ever play Picross for the gameboy? Picross 2 was made by the creators of Pokemon!
And they almost made a Pokemon picross:
Hmm, FYI as of this moment, I can't run the game in browser.
Oh no! That's very odd... I could generate a Windows build so you can see if that works instead.
Sorry for the confusion- it's something on this system I'm using. It works on my phone, so something is up with my browser.
All right then! Glad you got it working.
The game was actually inspired by Mario's Picross, not sure if that's the one you mean. But I didn't know about that, very cool!
Up and running! So fun!!
Yes, I meant Mario's Picross. I just started playing Mario's Picross 2 and it's been excellent.
I just unlocked "eyerobot" : )! Looks like a game boy camera with wings to me!
Edit: Never mind I stan Mo Hawk.
A really polished entry. This game is absolutly "simple" and delivers what is suposed to do.
Great job for everyone who developed this game. A incredible work!
Wow! I can't give this enough stars. So well done! I was new to Picross, but learned it quickly and it was worth it. There are so many other games out there to play, but I stuck with it until I solved it. That's what fun is, right? The music was top notch, with the adorable theme, I loved how the melody stood out. All the pixel art was fantastic and the layout of it all was super professional. I loved the sassy character remarks (like mo hawk), snappy controls, and that you could even save your game, reload the page and it would keep your progress. Best I've played so far!
cheerful and is differently a fun time, I liked exploring the team's abilities
I'm obsessed with picross and this is an adorable game!! The artwork is so cute and the puzzles are fun. I love this so much!!
Fantastic portraits! Beautiful art and world-building! So much love and care is in this game, really great job!!!
Amazing aesthetic. Great palette and font choice, feels really legit! Great job. :)
The art is fantastic! Very well made game. Everything feels extremely polished and well thought out! Great work!
What an utterly incredible game! This deserves to win! 10/10, I loved it so much!
