The most important thing first... please let us pet the cat. Also maybe let us name our cat?!
Next are some general notes and bugs I noticed:
- UI popups or a (optional) guided tutorial would be nice
- The font in the help menu is hard to read. For titles and banners it's nice, but it's too much for a paragraph.
- Job difficulty levels would be a really cool addition.
- The starting position and time allotted for each minigame could be a cool way to change difficulty.
- Passing water OR oil vs having to pass both would be nice.
- Bug - minigame arrows don't reset.
- Bug - resolution scaling issue on the grinder wheel minigame occurs on native 4k display with game in full-screen mode.
Things I really liked:
- The artwork is really nice and consistent!
- I really enjoy that each minigame is different, but not too different. It's enough to keep you on your toes and entertained but not too much that it's confusing.
- The sound design is great too! My favorite is the tink noise at the anvil :D
- The start of the game is super smooth. You get the main title screen, hit 'space' and there you are in game ready to play, no loading or additional screens or anything.
- The to-do list for each job was a nice surprise. After reading the description/instructions on the itch page, I was expecting to have to remember the order to do things on my own and that it wouldn't be in game. Having the little checklist in order is super nice!
Overall this is a really well done game! Especially considering the insanely small amount of time that was given to complete it. I'm excited to see where it goes as it's developed further.
