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!
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

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

duck duck swapI 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.

A Fungus : Infinite Fly BuffetI 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!

Grapple RobberThis 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!
