Great job on this one!
I lasted 4 seconds the first 3 times and was confused out of my mind until it clicked.
It's nice to see such a simple concept utilized in a fun fashion.

Developer

Thanks! :)

You have an interesting concept with super satisfactory controls and a good song in short, a good jam game, congratulations :)

Developer

Thanks!

This game was pretty cute - the gameplay is simple but really well done, the art is good, and the audio (music and sfx) were well done. Like what the other person said, it's definitely hard to see what's going on when everything is small. For this game, I think that you could get away with hiding most of the border and adjusting the UI.

Developer (1 edit)

Agreed - I gave myself a lot of room on the border in case I needed space for UI, but I ended up not needing it and sort of forgot to trim it back down. On top of just using a too-small tile size to begin with (I should know better!)

Thanks for playing :)

Hey folks. Just wanted to leave a heads-up here to let people know that I posted an update to this game after the submission period to remove a joke that I decided was in bad taste. No other changes were made: no art or sound assets were modified, and no scripts were changed except to remove a single string from a table.

I like:

  • the music! It's really quite nice:)
  • the story; it was something new!

Suggestion:

  • make things a bit bigger? Imo things are a bit small.

Thanks.

I didn't make the music, but I agree it's well done, which is why I used it.

That's a good point about the size; I'll have to remember to make my next game more zoomed-in.

:)
