Fun cute puzzle game!
GAMEPLAY
The game featured smooth controls, especially the laser cutting mechanics, which provided a satisfying gameplay experience. The puzzles were not too difficult, and I would have liked to see more levels and perhaps more creatures, but I understand that time is limited during a game jam, and the variety provided was definitely good and sufficient. Also the addition of extra elements did work out fine and added extra challenge to a level.
ART STYLE / VISUALS
The graphics were charming and cute, contributing positively to the overall aesthetic and making the game visually appealing. The laser cutting also felt really nice when doing so.
AUDIO / SOUND DESIGN
The audio, including the background music and sound effects, was well-suited to the game's style and enhanced the playful atmosphere.
INNOVATION
The cutting mechanic introduced a somewhat innovative element to the gameplay, differentiating it from typical puzzle games.
THEME
The theme of isolation was clearly woven into the game's concept.
Overall a solid polished fun puzzle game. Well done and keep up this nice work ๐ช
Very fun, loved the gameplay and the art. It felt great
This game was very fun, soild art, good gameplay, it kinda reminded me of the good ol' days of flash, from idea to execution. Very nice!
Pretty simple. Fraction simulator basically lol. But the mechanics are very good and the game is very responsive. Cool game!
Hey , hands on most innovative game till now , the isolation of animals was a great idea and tied into the concept nicely , it was executed nicely too , the graphics and sound design is excellent , Kudos :)
Very good, took me back to JezzBall back in the day. I liked the laser effects too!
Great game, the amount of polish is impressive, the puzzles were nice and I got all first, the art is very squishy which I like and the sfx compliment with that feeling.
Amazing game, one of my favorites so far! The idea is very clever, and everything feels very polished and well executed. I love how such a simple idea can lead to puzzles where you really need to think to earn the maximum amount of points. Very nice!
Very fun and original game, graphics were simple but cool too. Good job!
Very fun game to play, and original. Well done!
Awesome work! I didnโt feel like the music really fit the vibe at all, and got repetitive fast. Also think sometimes the rng of where they hopped was annoying, I would love an undo button especially. Was able to 3 star all the levels and had fun doing it.
Nitpicks aside, this is incredibly solid and well executed, definitely fits the theme. Congratulations on it :)
A fun and well-executed game! The pixel art style is very charming. Didn't come across any bugs, just had a really good time playing the game :) Maybe a quick explanation for the star ratings would be nice, but other than that, great game!!
Love this game! Super interesting idea based on the theme, and actually had me a little stumped to figure out how to get a higher score. Still can't get three stars on Herd Power lol. Only thing I wanna mention is the rng element of waiting for animals to move to a specific area for optimal lines, but that was only relevant when I was trying to really optimize the scores on some levels.
My favorite submission so far. The art is great, the audio fits well, the game is really fun to play and the idea is awesome. Very well polished and no bugs. I love this!
I love the concept of this game a lot. Reminds me off all the cool Jezzball games I've played as a child. The art and the general presentation of this game was well made and super polished. Great fun!
I love this one so much, perfect gameplay interesting levels, very fun and an awesome interpretation of the prompt! I especially love the points calculation using the sheep and the wolves, so awesome. Would totally buy this as a full fledged game someday.
Thank you for playing! I am glad you liked the scoring system!
Honestly, I got really high. I would play on a mobile phone, visually good. The topic is very indirect, but interpreted in its own way and it's also cool
Thank you for playing! Yeah, I think the controls would adapt well to a mobile game too.
I enjoyed this quite alot, Feels polished and clean, no bugs while playing a pretty great experience.
Thank you for playing!
The concept is so neat and clever! plus, the game looks very polished, Great Job!
Thank you for playing! I had a lot of fun coming up with the concept!
super fun, the art is super good, the music was fine but it fit the vibe super well
Thank you for playing!
