I really liked the puzzles and the story, but i stopped playing on the run section. It was not very fun to restart from the first run map every time i died

its alright and thank you for playing.

I wanted to change that but it would be too easy. Thats basically the boss fight here.

Feel sad for the crab family.  For the first time i actually enjoyed reading the dialog  in a game. 

Well done . 

Submitted

Holy Crab it is the best game ever (okay, at jam)!!!

I dont know what i can add, this game is looks like complete game.

p.s. In my game you can match checkmate too ;D

Anyone get the good end? :D

Love the story and the vibe! I am proud to say I have saved humanity and stopped coronavirus. The puzzles could maybe be more interesting, but eh, it's still a "fun" story and feel.

Submitted

Challenging at times, but overall this is a very good and polished game. Were it longer, I would absolutely pay for this. Well done!

Submitted

Text scrolling skipped more than one part for me at times but other than that pretty fun game. Took me way too long to get what the hint meant though :)

Submitted

The game was really fun! I really liked the puzzle-like mechanics of the first two levels, but I never actually got through the third one (and I'm not even sure how long it goes on for, or if I was actually playing it right by gathering all the cards ^-^;)

Submitted

Wow this game was hilarious, an in I actually laughed out loud. Great story and great twists. Only complaint is that there isn't enough incentive to get the other endings, but whatever. Amazing!

Submitted

Holy Crab! lol really well done. Thank you for using an easily readable font. Picking up some heavy Undertale vibes (in a good way). 

Submitted

Awesome game! Small nitpick just would have liked a way to skip dialog chunks to get straight to the game after failing. Overall great job!

Submitted

Well made RPG had a lot of fun playing it. Great job! :)

Hey man, that an amazing game! I really like it, you did a great job with finding music and SFX for it. You also made all the movement nice, not too fast nor slow, what is great. This is a very good game.

P.S.: Lol I enjoyed the very first maze with apples really a lot

Submitted

It's fun from beginning to end. I like it. Music is dope XD

Is there a good ending?

The story and the minigames are almost unrelatable though. I can't find what causes the bad ending vs the worst ending.

And there is too much text D:

Developer

Many text because..... its an RPG😹😹😹😹

Well there are actually only two endings, but imo bad ending is a good ending.

This game is really well done. The music was always on point, the puzzles were engaging but most of all I think the it's greatest strength is it's brilliant (if a bit bizarre) story. 

Like some have said, the repeating dialog can get a little annoying if you die a few times - particularly on the rotating level. I don't know how many times I heard that 90 degree joke! But really that is just a minor nit pick in an otherwise original and impressive game.

Developer

Thank you for your kind words and comments! Happy to know  that people are enjoying this short game.

I will do a quick fix in a day for cards and stupid jokes. 

Submitted

Great Game and the music is nice. Only the Dungeon part is a bit confusing.

Developer

Like others said, the card part right? May I know does it take long to figure it out? 
My original intent is guessing people would take some time to find out what to do.

If it's annoyingly confusing (means not fun while you are figuring it out), I may do some fix.

Submitted

Yes the Card part, after a few tries I found out that I have to find the right order, but I thougth "A" would be the last. The annoying part is the repeating dialog after respawing if you die a few times.

Developer

Oh yeah I forgot A can be confusing LOL I may fix it when I'm home. 

Thanks mate.

The card part is a bit confusing. It feels like I can just empty the field and fill it again with the warnings forever. Maybe a progress bar or something to show what the goal is would be nice.

Submitted

wow didn't expect a game about the corona virus but here i am, couldn't figure out what to do at the card part tho.

Developer

did you figure it out? 

I hope the difficulty is just right that everyone can beat it
