I really enjoyed this one! The music you chose sets the vibe well, and the little suprises in the game are certainly a welcome addition. Lots of personality in the "how to play" section (can confirm that I am allergic to grass).

All around, good game. 

P.S.

 I did not know about the Dr. Jelly meme up to this point, and I thank you for directing me to that masterpiece.

Thank you very much!! I was doing my best to make sure that everything could at least gel together given the fact I was working with other assets, so its nice to hear that it all worked out. :) Thank you for taking the time to play and comment!

2:20! This made me realize my brain has difficulty parsing and typing Japanese words. Creative and a really good jam idea!

Developer

Japanese words are definitely hard to type out rapidly and consistently. Thank you very much for taking the time to play and comment!

2:28!!! very chill + fun, only one tiny issue was that some of the background pieces made it difficult to see the text.

Developer

Yeah I saw that happening a bit too after I submitted... but no way to change it now I guess HAHA. Thank you for taking the time to play it and comment regardless! Appreciate it loads. :)

Chill vibes, love the monkey art!

Developer

Thank you very much!! Appreciate you taking the time to play and comment. :)

2:48! A chill little experience with fun references, although I didn't have much time to enjoy the atmosphere because I was focused on typing.

Developer

Thank you! Typing does indeed take up a lot of concentration than one expects which is why I also opted not to go too heavy on the feedback/effects, so no worries. Glad to hear you enjoyed it regardless. :)

I was about to think the game never ended lol! 3:05 is my time. Fun concept, but a bit boring by the end as it is HIGHLY repetitive. Are the characters randomly placed? I feel like they should have been more evenly done or some more added since I really thought the game would go on forever after CDAWGVA since there wasn't any in awhile. Overall interesting game here. Also needs a way to make it full screen lol. Music and sound effects are fun, and graphics not bad, but gonna get knocked down for being not original assets

Developer

The order is random every time you play so yeah, it is very much random. My original idea was really just the prefectures and regions of Japan and the more memey stuff was sort of a last minute addition I threw in at the end when I still had a bit of time left haha. Game design/art isn't my strongest suite (I'm a programmer by trade) plus I joined this jam sort of in a moment of impulse so I was not prepared AT ALL. I'll definitely take your suggestions into consideration if I ever decide to polish this further in the future! Thank you very much for taking the time to play and comment., I appreciate it. :)

Ah ok thanks for the tip. I understand not being an artist or musician and it can be highly stressful to do it all yourself. Last year I impulse participated as well and my game was a buggy mess lol, so really congrats. If you want original art and music next time, but don't think you can make it yourself, you can try and find team members. Personally not sure how well I could work with others, but that is very much a me thing

Super cute !!

Thank you very much!
