You did a lot of work! Nice over-world and nice cutscenes! The minigames need some polishing, tweaking, and bug fixing but it is already a great foundation for a fun and unique (inception) game!

Ambitious concept and fun use of minimalist being the games themselves. I loved the cut scenes but I think all the games moved a bit to slow, especially pac-man. Having one life when it takes that long to get through really punishes the player if they begin to lose focus and make a mistake or get caught on a wall. 

Overall great work!

Developer

Gonna keep that in mind, thanks! :D

The idea of this is really fun! I like having all these mini arcade games to explore different mechanics and gameplay. Good job with the animation/cutscene. Some of the mini games are a bit slow though, so would love to see this updated! Hope to see more development of this game as the idea definitely a lot of potential. Really good job on your first project :D

I really like the arcade minigame its cool. Nice concept!.

Cool game with nice little animations & cutscenes. The concept was really cool but I found the text a bit hard to read!

I liked the concept of this game very much.  I wasn't able to get out of the arcade though.  It took a while to get all the numbers but it seemed they didn't work to open the door.  The speech bubble "what are you playing a prank on me" didn't go away so I'm wondering if that's why?  Even though I wasn't able to finish it, I enjoyed it a ton.  I wish I could adjust the speed as it felt very slow to me.  I also found the font a bit hard to read - though I now it's meant to go with the pixel style.  If there was an option for folks that have trouble reading to have a more clear font that would be helpful.  Great work! Love the art style.

Thanks for the Feedback!
So, the Speech Bubble shouldnt have to do with the progress / exiting the arcade. I dont know why the door didnt open, gonna have a look into that, aswell as the text. Thats a nice Idea to have an option for clearer text, also gonna try that!

Thanks :D

I always like the concept of playing games in an arcade in a video game.

I enjoyed it until I got to the pac man part, I just guessed the number rather than trying to beat the pac man machine.

Overall I liked this entry, good job!

Simply: Understandable :P

Still thanks for the Feedback :D

This was really good! The idea is great and the style is on point. The only issues I had where with the minigames, in particular with the Pac-Man one, it was WAY TOO slow, it took me a lot but I completed it! With some small changes, this could be a very fun game!

Developer

Thanks for the Feedback!

I just played your game and it was great! I dont really have any complains except the Font. For me it was a bit hard to read, but it was basically self explanatory.

Great Game!

Amazing concept! What I saw of the overworld was great.  One if the mini games was just a black screen that I died on randomly. I really like the idea and think with some tweaking of the minigame mechanics it be really fun!

Thanks! I played your game and i think it was great! The Heartbeat in the Background, the Interaction when going the wrong way (lol) overall the music and stuff

Keep Going!
