- Hey there! This was a really nicely designed set of mechanics, as far as the game rules go. Having the blood slow down Cinderella, and also having it be the currency that requires you to mop to pick it up was a very nicely balanced system. That said, I did feel like some of the execution elements (unclear hitboxes, mostly) made it difficult to improve at the game in a way that felt like I was playing more skillfully. In the end, Cinderella's powers out-stripped the game design, and it was fairly trivial to get a score over 1000, after unlocking every power. This made the blood a little redundant, so perhaps some other ways of spending points would have been nice. There's a lot to like about this entry, and I think you should be happy with having produced it over just a weekend. Best of luck!

Fun game! It was satisfying powering up, and I liked her animations.
Thanks! This was my first time creating any real animations, I'm glad you liked them.
that was fun to play!!!! i like the story line and the different characters who came into the room
Thank you!
I really like the art. I also like the mechanics of cleaning up blood and getting upgrades. Good job!
Thanks!
I like the mechanics of this game, although it feels like the animals entering from every way isn't very thematic to a room. It may have made more sense to have certain doorways or whatever that they are coming in through, but that may not have been as a fun of an experience. I do like the twist on Cinderella though. The title and tagline are great.
For sure, it is less of a room and more of a single wall standing in a field. With more time I would've liked to have the animals burst through windows and doors. Maybe something to add later on.
Highly enjoyable game! Loved the cinderella theme and the overall aesthetic. Offering blood to Satan was brilliant. Great job!!
Thank you! I probably only had the idea to add Satan due to exhaustion on day 3, but that is the magic of jams.
Really nice game! I enjoyed it! My highest score was 150, i’m not sure if it’s good or low. The only thing that i was missing is the round counter, i wasn’t been able to keep track with how many rounds did i played. Good job overall! If you have some time, can you check out my game?
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed! A round counter is a great idea, I may add that post jam.
Great game, the design twist with Cinderella and cute animals was really funny ^^ the different kinds of enemies offered a fun gameplay experience, but the difficulty sure ramped up quickly. Great work!
Thanks! It being too difficult was definitely something I struggled with. The current version is after I even toned it down several times while playtesting. I will have to work on that before my next jam.
Awesome game! Love the artstyle and twist design.
Gameplay is great and the upgrades feature is really cool
Thank you! I'm really glad everyone seems to like the art style, it was something I was worried about.
super cool artstyle and animations it looks like a game boy advance game. A very good job i had a lot of fun playing it :)
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed!
This is really cool! The pixel art is nice, and I like the mopping feature.
Thanks! All of your art looks gorgeous, so that means a lot.
Great twist! Wish the upgrades didn't max out. Great Job!
Good game! I liked the art style, I wish the SFX were a little more polished and you could add an ambient music to sell more the ambient. Other then that, well done.
PS: I liked this reimagined version of Cinderella
Thanks! For sure, music and effects to add more 'juice' are the two things I think I need to work on the most. I'm glad you liked it!
very fun! I like messing around with my tactics when different types of creatures come in :)
Thanks! You sound like a fun gamer.
I really liked this game! The idea is really cool, and I always love art styles that use softer palettes. I really think you should expand this and polish it later after the jam is over!
Also why is it called Cinderella 2 in the title? Is there a first Cinderella game that I am unaware about?
Thanks so much! I've never worked on a game post jam, I might give it a go.
I was thinking Cinderella 2 as in a sequel to the movie as a joke (although I think there are already at least 3 Cinderella movies). It is dumb.
oooh I get it now XD
