Nice little game for a game jam! Hope this helps with the last minute review. Please rate us as well if you have some time.

Built To ScaleFun game! The gameplay loop is pretty fun; getting points based on how close you are to the order, rather than on a binary succeed/fail system, is nice; and the game’s art and music are nice and fitting. Good work!
Not sure whether the intended behavior of the bananas was to be movable only slightly or freely. Most bananas exhibited the former behavior, while the smallest one was able to be moved freely.

Touhou: Aura of IceFunny take on the theme :D
I wish there was some kind of progression or some other variation, but this is already a fun game!

Built Two ScaleNice style! the concept was also pretty fun haha. I didn't understood how to work with bananas for the weight, but I still enjoyed the game, well done!

Bar of Demanding GodsHa! Kicking myself for not thinking of banana for scale. Great concept, great entertainment :)

Tipping PointI love all the banana themed games coming out of this jam :D
Fun idea and nice art style, I think this could be expanded upon to introduce more varied gameplay if made into a full game.
Overall it was a neat idea and pretty well executed, well done!

Clever Pun Related to CapitalismNice game and idea! I think it would be cool if you had a score out of 10 or something to see if you did well. But besides that, it was really cool to play!

Agglomeratronayyy, another banana for scale game! Very cool idea, artstyle is great, nice sounds (besides music not looping) tho it becomes quite stale preety fast since there is no real progression (at least from the 10 minutes i've played)
Overall a great job! It's always fun to play games with the same basic idea as mine and see how the idea can evolve, hope you find time to check out my game too!

BananaForScaleHey thanks for the feedback :) yeah that is true, I needed to add more variety but ran out of time :D one idea was to add more parameters then weight and length. For example temperature: when you grap the sword you can only hold it for a specific time depending on the temperature it has.
I will definitely check out your game :)
This was a fun concept, the banana being used to scale the staffs and swords is so fun and unique. I liked the fact that it has variation, it really helps keep the gameplay refreshing. Music stopped, I wanted to hear more :(
Submitted
Monkey want BananaCute idea! The banana being provided by the adventurer added some need to recalibrate each time, which kept it reasonably fresh. Really nice art on the swords and staffs too! I liked the music, but it stopped partway through my session until I returned to the title screen, maybe it wasn’t set to loop?

Jumbo PumboI'm surprised my brain had not once thought of the phrase "banana for scale" since the jam started until now. Very clever!

Paint Rolling! with HueyComposer from the game "Crescendo" here! Really cute idea with using bananas as the reference for scale factor when picking weapons. Really enjoyed the vibe of the art mixed with the music and sfx. The game was also really simple and easy to understand and was really fun to play.
Submitted
CrescendoThat was fun! The idea is hilarious. On my first try, I couldn't figure out how to compare the weights and was going with the vibes only haha. But then it came to me and I was unstoppable. Great job.
