My favourite game from the jam by far! Got me really hyped as I discovered new mechanics (the lightning got me bamboozled). Art style is very novel and true-pixel art is a nice touch. UI is very clear and intuitive. Pacing is very good, gameplay did not get boring for even one second. SFX's are on point. Only improvement I can think of is an alternative to throw mechanic that is more unique and satisfying but in terms of execution this is strong on all fronts.

Used this for my game Fishin' For Fishies to make a day night cycle! 10/10

Good catch! I will check that out. And yes the luck drains very fast and It's gone until you got a fish. I'm thinking of a separate timer that will hold it at the same value for like 10-20 seconds and then start to drain so you can use it on your first catch. So you cant sustain it more easily by resetting the timer but if you don't think about it it drains pretty quickly. Also I didn't get to implement it but I really wanted a stone skipping mini-game like yours! You buy them from a shop for a good amount of money then skip it to gain luck. I was thinking a rythym game-like mechanic and better you do more luck it gives. Will probably add that too. Will check out your game once I have the time.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

Everything you mentioned happens to be my biggest dissapointments about the project! Unfortunately I had to upload with those flaws since I started quite late and did not have time. Will fix them once the jam is concluded though! Also, you can drag items to your view and it says how you can use it.

Wow! Thank for this in-depth review. It's always a great feeling when little details you wasted time on gets noticed and appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you liked it! Yeah the marker is not easy to see when it's very far away so maybe a little sound + a pole animation would solve that problem. Thank you for the suggestion

Thanks!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

Very cool concept! Love the dwarfs animations.

This was a very unique experience and the graphics are beautiful. The depth of the mechanics is insane for a game this cute but it's a bit hard to get a hold of because of the limited screen space.

This was awesome. Dialogues are genuinely good! Quirky tone without being over-the-top and made me chuckle several times. The depressed axolotl was the perfect introduction for the experience. Love it.

This was pretty good! Love the artwork. I only feel like it gets hard too fast or maybe I missed a mechanic :P

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you enjoyed it! You get to the shop screen at the end of the day which lasts 5 mins.

Makes so much sense. Maybe I could add in some narrative in the future!

Thank you!

Thank you! No currently you can finish the day manually :(

Thank you!

Glad you enjoyed it! Maybe my fault for not explaining it to well but you simply release the tension by releasing the space button, and you press it again. Will update the description for that. Also I'm just as disappointed about no beer sound because I did not have to time :(. Will add it though!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Very cute game! Penguin's animation are so smooth.

Incedible work! Great art style and fun gameplay aside, I'm in love with the soundtrack. 5/5 for audio for sure!

I finished it! Simple yet very fun.

Very creative interpretation of the theme. Nice cozy vibe. Also love the artwork!

The art is absolutely stunning and the audio fits the atmosphere perfectly. Well done!

My favorite so far. Such a creative idea and unique gameplay. I love how you can rehydrate the cops and they run away terrified.

Suuuper fun and looks great. Art style is gorgeous. My only criticism is that the fire doesn't work well with the other graphics :(

Thank you!

Thank you!

Very simple and fun. Good audio and music works well with the vibe. The leaderboard is a nice touch but I couldn't  save my score for some reason :(

Love it. Very cute concept and smooth gameplay. The attention to detail is awesome like in the draining animation of the water orbs.

Very fun and addictive

Very clever idea and great level design. Well done!

Creative idea! Also the art is very cute. Only downside is, as a long time rhythm game player I found this very hard and I think the reason was the fact that it was horizontal, so my brain couldn't map qwert with vertical lines. Cool game nonetheless!

Loved it! Definitely one of my favourites. The idea is very interesting and it's executed masterfully. Great game!

Loved it! Very interesting idea and the pacing and animations make it wonderfully dramatic. Very solid game overall.
