This is cool game. I wish there was a resate button at the end.

simple and easy to understand without instructions~ would love to see how you would ramp up the difficulty later on!

Its simple but solid. I went back to see if I could beat it, and I did !

Cute little game! With some polishing and extra time, it has potential for a nice game where I can just turn my brain off and play during a break.

Interesting mechanic, haven't seen that before.

Fun game would have been more challenging if you added this: 1) The monsters keep trying to dodge the trap by swapping places around you and we use the swap places mechanic to trap them in time. 2) If we hit the traps we get hurt. 3) If we use the wrong trap on the monster their timer goes down faster or something.

Definitely if I decide to improve it I should listen to your advice. Thanks for the feedback.

Ok, this was pretty fun. I liked how each monster had a key weakness that you needed to exploit to defeat it, as it added a bit of strategy to the gameplay. However, I think it would have been easier to switch positions with the monster if that action was done with a single button, especially since the player can only move in two directions. Aside from that, this was pretty good.

The monsters' sprites are nice! Now I'm craving garlic bread... dunno why 🤷‍♂️

Developer

Haha thanks!

This was fun to play ^^ I do feel like it gets easier when it gets faster, because the timer of the monsters is still slow. I also really liked the monster sprites ^^

Developer(+1)

Yes, I think it is not very well balanced. I'm glad you like it, thank you!

Fun little game. I think the first time I got an impossible combination at level 2 because the timer went to 0 before a fitting item came but the second time I made it through.

Developer

It is likely, I did not have time to ensure the timing but there is enough help for most of the times. Thanks for playing.

once i realised how to game, it was fun (i had to press y instead of z, if anyone else has this problem)
very good!

Developer

Y instead Z on keyboard, it's weird. Anyway thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

It was the same for me, probably due to the German qwertz keyboard layout (y and z have switched places compared to qwerty)

Developer

Oh, I didn't know that, thank you!
