A very beeple game! The vibes that this game is emitting is fantastic and the art is very amazing and well drawn. Would definitely beeple again <3

Submitted(+1)

love the art. 
gameplay took me a second to grasp but once i did it was really nice to send em to pick stuff up!
i think this one's of the special submissions of this jam, even if it doesn't fit the theme that well

5/5/5 Would Beeple again

Submitted

I will review now: Beep. Bebiiip. Biip. Beep. Bebiip. Bebiip. Jokes aside I absolutely adore the sound effects and the art style! Sadly the idea behind this game is something I don't get warm with and I did not know what to do.

Also the text was not readable at all at game start. There is some potential with the cuteness in mind. Maybe a more refined Beeple sim? 2/2/5


Stay crunchy.

Developer

oh, um what was wrong with the text? Did it glitch on your browser? We haven't seen that happen before

And the goal is to find the vase and get a high score! It's supposed to be a chill game where the AI does most of the work if you let it

Submitted

The text was white on blue. Bright colors don't go with bright backgrounds or if you understand this a bit better: Not cold on cold or warm on warm. And if the beeples do everything, why bother as player to do anything? Also, rethinking now, I didn't even see any form of the jam's theme within the game - that missed me completely.

A few tutorials on colors should be enough to set you up for the future. Even I don't understand the ful spectrum but there are awesome color palettes that do the majority of job for you.

I stil think the game has potential. Going for some form of visual simulation story telling with barely needed player input.


Stay crunchy.

Developer

Well, it's a sim game, largely inspired by Ant sim and Pikmin. In Ant Sim, you don't really have to do anything but you can speed up the progress of the game, just like this game. Like sure, you could leave the game running for an hour and let it beat itself, or you could intervene and beat it in 10 minutes, it's up to you.

Also the Beeples are rolling dice every time they decide on a task to do, which is like every 30 seconds!

Submitted

Ah, chances are that I didn't see a dice roll happening since I was zooming around getting all the beeps and boops, heh. I understand the fascination about ant-farms and simulations doing similar things but within the gaming industry rarely a game of that kind makes it out of a niche within a niche. Although I remember a fish-tank game in which you could watch fish, feed them and such things.

If you reform around 'zen' that actually could be a stress reliefer and that might actually be a good purpose for this kind of game.

Stay crunchy.

Very unique game. The art style reminded me of PaRappa the Rapper/Paper mario. Very nice. The music was cute too .

Great game, very chill, really like the art & sound design! 10/10 would buy a beeple plush.

At first I thought the name of this game was just a variation on  meeples, the word for little plastic worker tokens in board games. AND THEN I HEARD THEM BEEP. Expectations subverted, cutest plot twist of the century.

Developer

I play a lot of board games and several types now I've typed meeples and then I've had to go back and fix that typo, lol

THIS IS SO FRIKIN CUTE!!!

great game! love art too, but I think there is something wrong with the sidebar :p

other than that, a pretty solid game!

Developer(+1)

yeeeeeaaaaahhhh, the sidebar is the no. 1 problem that I didn't get around to fixing before running out of time. It goes a little haywire, especially when you are constantly creating new beeples

Fucking love beeples and sims

Beautiful art! I could totally see this as a full game. 

Submitted(+1)

Awesome concept and really nice art!

Submitted(+1)

The beeples are amazing and I'll die on this hill

Incredibly cool game, Love the concept, super charming and fun. Not much to do after the vase, but watching the beeples is a pleasure in its own right

Developer

If we're both on this hill, do we dice on this hill?


. . . I'll show myself out . . .

Beepp! Loved it! Great concept, original idea!

I guess a bit more of a tutorial would have been great, but you can figure out the workings pretty quickly. Well done!

Developer

Tutorials are so hard! I definitely want to get better about making them though :P

Neat game idea! I had to spend a bit figuring out exactly how things worked, but once I did, I was able to get the vase pretty quickly. Cute concept that was well-executed -- nice submission!

Took a second to get the hang of things, but I liked it! I got the vase!!

Submitted(+2)

Ow nice graphics!

Submitted(+2)

This is game is so cute and fun! It's impressive what y'all were able to get done in jam time (especially the accessibility stuff like the tutorial, pause menu, volume sliders).

I also really appreciate how concise it is! I didn't have to grind that much to get the vase.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! <3

And yeah something I learned from previous game jams is that no one has time to grind, you gotta allow people to get to the goal quickly or they just won't have that much fun

I love the Pikmin vibes!

Submitted(+1)

This game is SO adorable, I'm a big fan of the little Beeples

Submitted(+2)

Absolutely darling. The music is one of the first loops I've heard today that I don't turn off within 2 minutes. I like the flat sprites against a 2D world. Nice work

Thank you! As someone who recently got into music making, this made my day!
