Very ominous!
really cool idea, and I it was really fun, i got like 3 wins max XD, i didnt seem to face any bugs, overall great game
Enjoyed the game! Thanks for making it
I like the mood a lot!
Really cool visual style!
Nice take on the theme!
it's fun to add weight to the scales and guess the weight off of it but it'd be nice to get rewarded more for being correct or like making the weights actually equal instead of getting a close estimate then going +1 over and over
Cool concept with the scales. I found the core gameplay loop a little repetitive. Very nice polish.
I like the idea, and it's pretty easy to understand, but I was confused by the screams at first. I thought it meant I got it wrong, and I wondered why.
It took me 1min to figure it out - but then it's an enjoyable game! I really like the minimalistic art style. Well done!
Interesting idea !
At first I thought I was guessing wrong (because of the screaming).
I think it would benefit being more difficult (with more variations on the eyes weights). Could it become somewhat a logic game ? Like : guessing the weight of an item give us clues when using this item to weight other things.
balanced, as everything should be.
Very nice
Very simple but effective style! nice
it has an interesting atmosphere and style, but at the end of the day, it's a number-guessing game; there's only so much you can do with that concept. still, it's a clever take on the theme, and finishing a game of any kind should be considered a victory.
While the art was not the greatest (can't complain much when I can barely use Paint), the atmosphere was rather creepy. It needed a better message to indicate score, as the scream was confusing at first. There is also the problem that you have just a few seconds to play it, and would be hard to get a score higher than 3 or 4 in that time. This short amount of playtime also means it becomes repetitive fast,
It reminds me of the Egyptian myth of weighing hearts. With some major improvements in the art style, it could be pretty good. You could even put people's sins on the scale.

The vibes are there and there's potential for something really creepy. Music, art, and SFX work in your favour though I thought the scream meant something was wrong?
I'd like to see some thought put in to speed up the game play. Not waiting for the weight to change, scaling the weights to the weight needed to be guessed, etc
The concept is simple but fun, would love to have a better description of rules, but once you get it it’s quite enjoyable. No bugs so great job! 💪
