An unexpected gem of this jam. You are also one of few people who gives their game a proper app icon. It's a small thing but I like it when people do that in case I want to keep the game. In any case, this game was fun and everything it needed to be. Five stars, awesome game.
interesting idea! Nice job!
I came to play and return the favor or rating your game. But I can't get the game to play. I downloaded 3 times and each time got a files missing error.
so simple but fun i enjoyed it "beat it first try :P"
Nice little concept, simple yet pleasing graphics and sounds.
The description on the page was a bit convoluted though, maybe a "tutorial" round with the timer shown could help? Like, that would explain that you need to get as close as zero as possible. Upd: Now that I've written this comment I feel silly for this, kek.
Well done though!
Thanks for your comment , I wanted to make a tutorial but didnt have time, hope you enjoyed it !!
Damn you Gandalf, you beat me!
Simple yet effective entry. I liked it :)
Thank you for the comment, but in terms of fun yours is defenitely better, I do agree that is a good entry tho.
By the way love the clone mechanic of your game, and how I had to adapt my play style depending which enemy i was fighting! Thank you again for the comment and good vibes :)
I like this!! Although very simple and short, it was fun and made me laugh. The art was nice and clean while being simple itself. I really have nothing bad to say about it :)
I guess if there was something to change, it would be to give different AI players a faster or slower timer to throw off the human. Anyways, I thought it was a nice little "time" waster!
Have you heard of other people having any issues with your RAR file? I can't get it to open. I downloaded a few times and even restarted my pc, but I haven't had any luck. Sorry. I really wanted to give it a shot. I'll try again later.
dont know what happened, I tried with my other pc and it worked, but thank you for trying
OK. I tried again. I think it was my RAR opener. I downloaded a new one and was able to play no problem.
It's a simple concept. Reminded me of the challenge mini games in Super Mario Party. But even for the simple gameplay, I did get a sense of tension and enjoyed my time winning the tournament. The extra touches you put into the artwork for the stage/arena helped the worldbuilding. Even just getting to name my character was a nice touch.
I do wish when I won the first two rounds of a match the game would recognize I already reached the win threshold and moved me on to the next opponent. Also, for some variety, you could have had a couple unique time signatures. So, let me try and explain.
1. Typical countdown each second is a second.
2. One, one, two. So the count could go 10, 9, 7, 6, 5, 3 ...
3. Doubletime. Every second is two seconds.
Then you show more of the countdown early on so the player gets to pick up on the rhythm and try to follow along quickly doing the math before hitting the button at what they think is zero.
Overall, great work and thanks for sharing.
Wow man such an amazing comment, thank you for the feedback!!
Yeah the main idea of the game was to create a silly little game, I got a little motivated with the art and being a bad artist it took me too much time xd. I definitely agree with all the ideas that you suggested, they would make the game a lot better, some of them came to my mind when I was making it but because of the lack of time I couldnt make them into the game (I uploaded the game 5 minutes before the gamejam ended xd). Thank you again man, I appriciate that you took the time to write something about the game, I havent have time to write comments about any of the games in the game jam but I have rated them all, tomorrow I will play your game again to analyze it and give you my thoughts and the best feedback I can come up with :)
Thank you and good luck for your future projects! :)
