The random theme generator was hilarious and the fact that then it shows you a micro game that follows the previously generated theme was genius!

Was a bit confused to start but overall good fun and a neat idea. Love pico-8 games so that gets bonus points from us :)
I have a soft spot for PICO games, this one sparked joy, I'm smiling while writing this, the audio was amazing, everything felt smooth and low res pixel art is not that easy, so I really appreciate it. Solid, well done, thank you for submitting !
I really liked this one. It's super creative and I loved the style. Of all the "play as the developer" games I've played so far, this one might be my favorite.
I got "Music VS. Cheese in Castles" and I thought it was a pretty good game but the reviews said otherwise. Ha! Awesome job and great humor!!
The visuals and audio is really good - really hits that retro game feel perfectly, especally the sound effects. The only thing that took me a second to figure out what the second last screen - didn't know which to shoot and which to run into. But the comments and visuals on the last screen are really funny and cute, really makes it. Nice work :)
Lovely game! Favourite part is at the end where you get to see your very own game.
Robot go brrr
Really cute idea! Kinda reminds me of game dev simulator or something but on steroids!
Love PICO-8 games! This was actually one of the first games I played for a while trying to improve my score. I think the highscore board really helped with that. Anyways, amazing job!
