This game really spoke to me... Thought the design was great and the shop really cool. Thank you so much for participating, that was a great entry!

Little but cute minigame, good graphics

Actually really polished and well thought game! Good job! You really did a lot with the idea and it was well implemented.

Fun game and theme usage. The only issue I had was selection in shop menu. I wish I could change selection freely to compare flavors, instead of carefully selecting scoops in particular order to navigate around.

Good formula! This is so original and pretty!

(I want an Ice Cream) :p

Very pretty game, Music and visuals are great! Only the gameplayi find a little lackluster. I found myself just cheesing and clicking through the flavours to get the best one. Gets little repetetive as well. But overall great submission!
Please check out and rate our game as well ! :)

Very addicting game! I didn't initially understand the just sitting and waiting for the scoop to get bigger but once I did, the puzzle aspect was really well done. Great job!

This is one of the most interesting game in the jam selection, it's addicting, reminds me of another game that I can't remember the game of, but for this, it's about building the tallest ice cream while larging each scoop, with selection becomes a strategy on trying to make it taller.

cool original idea. with way better visual and the great peaceful music that once again remind me of that other game.

Very cool game, polish is on point, with nice menu animations, a nice soundtrack (good choice), and also nice visuals and coherent style too.

The game feels already very nice, and apart from polishing it a bit, I think a couple of minor adjustments could make the game even nicer than it is now:

  1. Increase the cooldown time in between new flavors given to you in ice cream trays while you play, because now, I can simply equip one very good flavor and 2 weaker ones, and whenever I get one of the 2 weak ones I simply tap the tray to discard the scoop and cycle until I get to the good one, so there is really no need to have 3 equipped ice creams flavor if I only end up using one;
  2. Add a cost underneath or onto the ice cream flavors/balls instead of a lock in the shop (I thought I could unlock those by getting to a certain score since they have a lock, I didn't notice you could click on them and possibly buy them, so maybe adding the cost in there can make it clearer that you can actually buy those in a glance);
  3. You can't select the equipped ice cream balls to see their stats from the shop (you can only select the non-equipped ones and the locked ones).

Again, these suggestions are just minor fixes and tweaks, the game already feels good, cozy and funny to play, so good job on it :D

Thank you for the suggestions! I appreciate you taking the time to not only rate my game but also type out all these well thought out criticisms! 

Submitted(+1)

No problem, I try to do that for every game in the jam, that's what jams are made for :)

animations and style is soo cool, and satisfying. cool implementation, can you rate me?

Developer

sure! thanks for playing my game!

I really liked the style of the game, but I think its a bit easy to just balance the ice cream scoops on top of each other. I also think that I'd be better to be able to see the scoopability and stickiness stats while playing the game rather than just in the shop so that new players can tell the difference between the scoops and to refresh the memory of players. I think that this could easily be in the top 3. If you have the time, please be sure to check out my game!

Im so touched to hear that my game could be a contender for the top 3! even though I may not see it that way lol

Fun fact! I actually did made the sticking more difficult at the early stages of development but my playtester found it frustrating so I actually made it really easy but I will take your feedback into account!

I agree with  your suggestion in being able to see scoopability and stickiness when playing the game, I think I may implement such a feature after the jam ends (if i want to continue working on this lol)

dont forget to rate me btw!
