Did you work in a team?
I made everything by myself except for the sound effects which are from Splice!
Was the resolution a challenge?
The low resolution actually made it easier. The reason I took part in this jam was to force myself to make simpler art.
What did you learn?
I released my first game! That's enough to make this whole challenge worth it.

This was super cool and I think there’s a lot more you could do with this concept! Also glad to not be the only “toy” in this competition! Great work!
thank you so much! i’ll definitely consider expanding the concept in the future. this is more of a proof of concept and i’m glad you enjoyed it!
ps: you were my first comment on this submission haha, appreciate it!
Lmao! It’s been a looooong jam, haha!
Yup the music is a bop! Dunno why but i tought it was a tuning mini-game, at least I got to vibe with the music.
Well done!
haha, thank you! i’m happy that people are enjoying the music.
I really enjoyed this, I just wish there was more to it because I think the core mechanic could be used for some really interesting puzzles. Do you plan to expand it after voting has closed?
thank you so much, and absolutely! the consensus seems to be that there’s a lot of potential in the key concept. the puzzle genre popped into my head a couple times during development, as well as “WarioWare” style games with lots of short mini-games. but i’ll definitely consider expanding the gameplay and adding more content once voting finishes.
Actually this is not 64x64 or less, because the pixels are spinning.
But the game is great!
that’s fair, and thank you!
I think there's potential of it being more, but in general the artwork and music are on point
thank you so much, i’m glad you enjoyed it!
I can get behind this. It's short right now, but it has big potential. Great work!
thank you! and i agree, might come back to it once voting finishes and add more content.
I dig the vibe! Definitely leaving the music on while I play more jam games tonight.
haha, that’s very kind of you to say! i’m glad you enjoyed the music.
The gameplay has a charming simplicity to it even if theres not much meat on the bones. Audio is really great, evokes the atmosphere you aim for extremely well. Resolution isn't exactly 64x due to the fact that several objects aren't locked to the specific pixel in their movement, but the visuals are still pleasing regardless.
thank you! i addressed the resolution issue in a comment further down, but it’s still fair. i’m glad you enjoyed playing it and i appreciate that comment about the atmosphere!
A short experience but rich in atmosphere.
i’m glad you enjoyed it! i’m proud of the atmosphere i created.
This is so cute and simple! Really cute idea
aw, i’m glad you enjoyed it!
That was short, but.. Awesome art, well designed mini games, and a chill song!
I also do like its concept about sound check a lot! Well done!
i appreciate that! the concept was roaming around in my mind for a while, so i used this jam as a reason to execute it.
Looks and sounds great, nice job!
thank you so much!
Very good feedback & audio!
thank you! the screen shake was a last-minute addition, but it added so much to the feedback.
I love the sounds. Great work!
thank you so much! choosing the sound effects was a fun part of the process.
I really liked the song!
i’m glad you enjoyed it!
Music is awesome, but I think it could have more to the gameplay. Those thicc outlines look good btw. Congrats!
yeah, agreed. the art and audio took up most of my time, so the overall gameplay took a backseat. i’m glad you enjoyed the outlines though! i’m a big fan of that visual aesthetic and wanted to try it out myself.
The simple art is nice, but the music is amazing, listening to it while writing this comment.
thank you so much! the music is definitely what i’m most proud of.
Does it count as 64x64 with the smooth subpixel animations?
i'm not sure. i asked in the discord and they said it depends on who rates the game! it's not pixel perfect because of the dial in the third mini-game, since it'd distort when rotated.
Ah well, let's hope people are nice about it hrh
I think it's really neat that you forced yourself to make some simpler art, great idea for that goal!
thank you! i finally released a game because of that limitation.
Super cool! Love the smooth animations and sounds. Definitely a fun toy. Great job!
thank you so much!
