Nice! Could be a warioware mini game

Developer

Haha thank you!

Fun simple concept and trickier than it looks.

Developer

Thanks for playing :)

Nice take! tad too simple.

Could benefit from sfx or an visual indicating you are in the right/wrong range could benefit from more content.

Considering the best thing about this is the idea, having the idea vague at the start is not the bestest of ideas.

Overall, solid entry!

Developer

Thank you! And yeah those are good suggestions!

Really nice take on the theme (Actually had a similiar idea in the beginning). It's a really simple game and gets a bit boring after some time, but overall, really cool game :) Also, like others pointed out, hard to understand in the beginning.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you! And yeah it is a very simple game, worked on polish the most.

I am sorry, am I pulling belts from trousers in this game? If so this theme is hilarious. 

Developer(+1)

Haha yep! Glad you thought so!

Submitted(+1)

This is a really charming game, and great execution of the concept :) I was totally caught off guard with the gravity reversal!

Developer

That means a lot! And I’m glad it came off the way I was hoping haha

Thank you!

Simple but fun little game. Funny, and an interesting take on the theme :3 Well done!

Developer

Thank you!

Funny and clever interpretation of the jam's theme! Nice mix up in the last level. 

Overall a very solid entry. My only complaint mirrors a few other commentors in that it's a little difficult to understand what you have to do at first and the description doesn't do you any favours. Perhaps a tutorial level, or a better description (the goal is essentially to keep the white line within the green line using the space bar) would have helped.

Developer

Yeah I ran out of time for a full tutorial. Will probably add one if we update the game. And thanks for playing and leaving feedback!

reminds me of the stardew valley fishing minigame, and the reverse gravity is a great idea that keeps it challenging. good job!

Developer

Thank you! That was a big inspiration.

Submitted(+1)

Test your might in reverse! I wish I could see the belt get pulled up in the middle of the screen. Solid minigame!

Developer

Yeah I wanted to add that detail but didn’t have time. Thanks for playing!

Loved the gravity change in the nationals, really added something refreshing to the last level, would have loved to see more diverese difficulty increases like those in the second level as well. The setting is also super fun and the added interview on the itch page has a lot of charm!! 

Developer

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the game!

Developer(+1)

Appreciate it!

Cool idea. clean style. nice potential to be expanded on 

Developer

Thank you! Our artist definitely did a great job.

Submitted(+1)

This looks fun; I got lost in it for a moment.

Developer

Glad to hear!

Submitted(+1)

Really fun to play! Your idea is great. But I found the font to be a bit unreadable.

Developer

Noted! Will probably fix in a later update. Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Funny game! Reminds me of the starred valley fishing mini game!

Developer(+1)

That was definitely a big inspiration! Thanks for playing RKI :)

Submitted(+1)

I got a little confused at the beginning but overall its fun

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted(+1)

Fun game with a very unique take on the theme! The interview in the description is very funny.

Developer

haha glad you thought so!

Cool mechanic, Im a stardew valley pro tho. 

Developer

I’m sure that definitely made it easier haha!
