Not gonna lie I felt lost at the start! But nice interpretation of the theme

Neat concept and fun gameplay : I really like how adding multiple consequences to a button can add challenge and fun to the light management. Good job.

Developer

From a relaxing lights switching game to a chaotic one haha. Glad you liked it, Cheers!

This is a game where you figure out what each button does, and then play around with the rhythm to optimize and diversify your happiness portfolio.

Competently made, and my head hurts now. I'm gonna go make some coffee.

While the interaction is simple, how things work in the game is not. I don't think this is a contender, but it has much to be praised for. Come back in January!

Developer

Hey there, Thank you so much for your generous feedback, had so much to take from it! Will keep this suggestions for future games. Cheers!!

Great theme interpretation, for me the latest levels I just pressed the buttons a bit randomly, I think having one button per room and removing the moon/sun icon would make you keep focused on what the stickman is doing or if the room is empty in my head it would make me feel like the AI. The paper background with the simple drawing looks very nice, good job!

Hey great idea on using the animation as the baseline if the lights are needed, noting that down for future reference. Thank you so much, Glad you liked the game!

Very nice game. Probably one of the most unique approaches to the theme! I kept struggling to get all the frames on the correct light in the later levels, they are probably gonna replace their AI hehe

Developer

Glad you liked the game. Home owner going to complaint about lights switching on/off haha

Really nice game and a strong jam submision for sure! Loved the concept and the playfulness of it!

Interesting one! I liked the originality, but I confess that I don't know how to play properly... hahaha

In first level I beat the dev's best time by 1s without doing anything logical (I was trying to understand the game yet). Finally on level 2, the things got clearer and I got my best time (28 seconds at total). On the next levels the caos reign and it's funny, although even doing "random" stuff, you can beat the score and thinking "How I beat this level? What did I do?"... hahaha

Developer

Hey there! You're probably right, I wasn't able to implement a strong and readable tutorial part for the game and it's a big opportunity for me to improve on. Thank you for calling it out and I'm glad that you liked the game. Cheers!
