Great game, the  pixel art was nice and the gameplay was very fun and unique. The audio was also very good! Great job.

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed

Grocery shopping has never been this much fun😊! 

GAMEPLAY 
Unique and fun concept to use previous play as obstacles for your next attempt. Also funny location were all the action takes place. Controls were simple but good. The grocery was nicely set up so the first attempts you can learn were everything is located. Also the family characters are neat. Just a fun game to play. Simple but hard to avoid yourself. A nice challenge.

GRAPHICS/ART  
Simple pixel art, but everything was clear to make out what it was. The whole style fitted well together. Maybe in the future convert it to 3D for even more mayhem😊!

AUDIO   
Relaxing background track. Nice contrast with the adrenaline of shopping and paying. The SFX of the grocery were good too.

THEME 
The game touches lightly on the themes. But both a little tick off.

Very good concept and fun game. Good job💪!

Amazing game, what god idea, and those AIs are savage XD

Love it a really good one x3

The gray carts are not AI! They are you! The game copy your movement and paste it to a bot! I'm glad you liked it!

idée très originale et bien exécuté, je me suis laisser prendre au jeu, sympa

Merci! Content que tu aies aimé!

Really good game, fun and charming, i didn't understand the theme but good game overall!

Developer

Thanks a lot! All the other gray carts that are in the grocery store with you do the exact same movement as you did in your previous run, so you play in an alternate reality where you already are multiples times! (I know it wasn't much explained lol)

So creative! I've never been so mad at my past self like "why did you turn here? why did you stop there?!"
Many, many accidents happened
Really enjoyed this game! 

Developer

Haha thanks a lot!

Really awesome little game there! I started out all relaxed and then it suddenly got ridiculously hectic, music seemed to be taunting me as it got harder haha!

I like to try and give some quick feedback, so here's what I've got:

  • Initial highlighting of where you character is could be brighter? For the first few rounds I quite often got a bit confused who I was playing until I understood the game better!
  • Leave a different way to the way you came in occassionally, and higher / lower timings depending on the food you need to grab? Just some ideas for extra content
  • Pause menu / Settings menu can go a long way for UX for a game jam game :

Anyway, definitelly really enjoyed it. A nice take on the rewind theme too, would never have thought to have rewind be your previous play throughs!

I've recorded a quick video while I was playing it, just in case you want to take a look to see how players play your game, I know that often helps me a lot! :)

Developer(+1)

Wow thanks for this feedback and the video!! I'm very glad you enjoyed it! I'm sorry to see that you died due to a collision bug during the tutorial hahaha! 

Submitted(+1)

I thought that was part of the gameplay! haha, was careful to dodge all the walls for the rest of the game XD

Either way, would certainly make for a cool game mode where the walls do damage

Developer(+1)

Haha yeah, avoid touching walls and other carts... the difficulty would increase by a thousand

A nice game and it's really fun to play 👌.

Developer

Thanks! Will do ;)

I didn't catch onto the customer track based on previous runs thing, I though they were just AI powered. 

The game is overall quite good, but I think it should be a bit more dynamic, like maybe with actual customers mixed in with your previous runs.

Developer

Yeah I know it isn't very well told oops. Thanks for the feedback!

I AM SO SORRY KEVINS GIRLFRIEND, also the game was very fun :)

Developer

haha thanks!

The game is really great and pretty enjoyable, I just don't know how it fits with the theme though.

Developer

Thanks! I know for the theme, my idea was to make a game where yhe other carts are all the other characters you controlled before, so you play in an alternate reality in which you already went multiple times.
