How does your game fit the theme?
Tired of playing games? Try pausing one! This is a puzzle platformer where glitchy menu buttons are the only method of control, and the player is asked to become a pauser.

This game pushes the boundaries of what people imagine for game design. Rather than defaulting to classic (and let's face it: boring) WASD keys, jrshappert et al. opt to create a whole new paradigm based on pausing, fast-forwarding, and resetting the game. This is more than just a game. It is a movement.
jrshappert et al.: take this crown. :D
Dunno what all the et all stuff means but thank you!! Yeah shoutouts to jrshappert and the entire team for this game!
Wow... thank you so much! Glad you liked it!
Love the art style, theme, and gameplay!! Got stuck in the last level for a while, but figured it out!!
Thank you!! Appreciate it dawg
I Got Stuck On A Level And Could Find A Way Around It :D Everything Else Was Super Fun And Cool!
Thanks!! I sometimes get stuck a lot too, but it's ok
Best game I've tried so far. Very good puzzle game with good humor and interesting idea. Art and music is good too. Just a little bit hard but not a big deal for me.
Thank you!! Lowk I find it hard too but I have a skill issue
This game was great. The mechanic was fun and the dev notes were really fun and well written
Thanks bro! Yeah shoutout to the devs
Thank you! I've seen a lot of games do a "switch characters" theme, and yours is tied with Swappy Shrooms as my favorite approach so far!
this was super cute! i really loved all the graphics and the dev notes. the game itself is a super creative concept and was really fun to play all the way through. at no point did it feel too easy nor to challenging, overall an amazing experience!
Thank you bugguycomics!!
So much fun! The art is great, the mechanics are fun, and it works well! A great mix of difficult and funny and satisfying.
Thanks g! Glad you enjoyed it
The humor in this game is amazing, I had a lot of fun reading the dev notes. Unfortunately I got stuck at some point (the "mushrooms aren't a couple anymore" level) which is a shame, I would've loved to see the rest of the game.
It's also a very interesting mechanic. Not 100% sure if it really fits the theme, but it's been greatly executed which I personally find somewhat more important. :D
Thank you!! The idea of having you play as the UI instead of the player was the point in having "roles reversed" just to lyk. For the mushroom couple level, try pausing above one of the mushrooms. Should help you g
Possible spoiler: if you want to revisit the game, you'll find that the reset button does not reset Radish Boy's momentum. You might be able to use that to get through the level you got stuck on.
thank you - I did in fact revisit it and with your help was able to finish the level and subsequently the game. The mice really added another level of depth to it.
Awesome work! I loved the humor and animations. The puzzles made me think but weren't too hard, which in my opinion is perfect for a jam game. The music and sound were good too, and I liked the variety of having a slightly different mechanic each level. Great work!
Thank you!! Have a great day balydrap_games
Thank you so much! I loved your work too, the idea of building out the world is genius, super impressive that you implemented it so well so quickly too!
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it
wow, beautiful graphic design and very thoughtful logical that made me think I am back to young age again. Love love and love it. I am looking for more steps ahead. Thank you !
That means a lot, thank you so much :)
Thanks :):))::):)
Very unique game. I didn't even realize it was a puzzle game till about the 4th or 5th level, I had this jaw dropping moment when I figured out what was going on. The rulesets changing level to level also made it so much more engaging.
Art was good, loved the humor, the music changing pitch when fast forwarding was also a nice touch.
Overall, Awesome Job!
Thanks so much!
Thank you!! Don't tell anyone I lowk can't go past the 5th level
This is one of my favorite games so far--it's so creative and fun to see a game that's all about the buttons for NOT playing (pause, fast forward, reset, etc.)! The dev notes were my favorite part; they always made me smile. But the art and music were also adorable; I'm kinda obsessed with radish boy. 5/5 stars on everything:)
Radish boy says thank you!! He silly like that
YAY
Dev notes were definetly one of the most fun parts of the process for me :)
Great graphics too
Thanks! Your game looks amazing too!!
Vouch
This is awesome dude! Cool to see a different take on a similar idea. Also very funny!
Thank you!! Also cool to see another press pause to play lover
Very creative and enjoyable game. I love the design and the notes at each level!
Thanks!! Glad you liked it
Great game, very entertaining! the first level is hilarious:)
Thank you :). Bawling my eyes out
This game was very fun. I forgot to use the pause button sometimes.
Thank you! Me too man. Me too
Had a blast! very enjoyable, one of the levels I felt like I beat it with luck, poor couples being separated like that
Thank you!! Yeah that happens a lot
This game is awesome! Played it till the end, well worth it!
Thanks!!
Thanks! Yours is really fun as well!
Pretty fun! Each level being a new idea makes for an enjoyable game, kinda reminds me of Blinx the Time Sweeper
Vouch for blinx the time sweeper
