Glad you enjoyed! The platformer aspects are definitely going to get multiple passes once the jam is over. Most of the levels were developed in the last few hours, so a lot of the jumps are tighter than we probably want them to be. Our theme connection was more narrative than mechanical this year with the little robot rebuilding (or more reconnecting the wiring of) the larger scale robot. We intended to have more puzzle types (hydraulic pipes, etc.) and narrative to make that clearer, but game jams. Hoping to get all that and more in when we come back to this after all the voting is done. Praise has been passed on to the puzzle designer and artists. Thanks for playing!

Well done! I thought I was getting the hang of it until the bags started piling in. Sorting got quite frantic by the end. The mobile implementation was fun, and I appreciated being able to slide things around with my finger. There were a few times where I thought I had thrown a bag out a side, but I hadn't brought it far enough, so I had to go back to it. It was something small I could adjust to, but it made each placement take a little longer as I made sure the luggage was outta there. Overall great game! And I got the kawaii cheeks Casey!

The original plan was to make the level design be more emblematic of the insides of a robot. Have big columns stretching down that you need to navigate (the legs), etc. Then some gradual hints with a big reveal at the end! But game jams and scope... aren't the best of friends. Hopefully when we come back around to revisit this we can tighten up the theme integration. Thanks for playing!

This was lovely! I appreciated the wholesome vibes of the game. Helping people always makes a game feel good! The art is phenomenal and the evolving music was super engaging. The mechanics also made for surprisingly elaborate dexterity puzzles despite the simple premise. This was a blast from start to finish, and all done in just four days is wild. Well done!

Full style points! Everything about this was just oozing that froggy goodness. I loved the little extra touches too. The camera zoom tied to the number of frogs you have really makes a big difference in selling it. Well done!

I liked the musical take on the theme! The art, music, and gameplay were all good. The one thing that threw me off was having the beat of the music conflict with the beats of the rhythm bars. I ended up just spam clicking to not have to worry about matching the beat of the rhythm bars. I'm realizing getting the rhythm bar to sync with the music would be really tough in under 48 hours, but would be a super rewarding addition if you keep working on this in the future. Congrats on the first game! And getting it all done in under 48 hours, well done!

Glad you enjoyed! One of the things we're considering adding post-jam is context based tooltips. Like not telling the player about WASD or space to jump if they just do that out of habit. We definitely tended toward over-informing to make sure as many people as possible could make it through. The level design was the last thing we focused on, so there's definitely some balancing and cleaning up we can do there. Glad you stuck with it all the way through to the end despite that. Thanks for playing!

This is a perfect example of coming up with a solid foundation for a game and running with it. The resizing mechanic worked wonderfully and lead to some great puzzles. Bonus points for getting it all done in 3D. Well done!

This was excellent! All of the different abilities were unique and made me think differently about how to approach the puzzles, which were all well designed. I was stumped for a sec on a few of them. Well done!

I liked the take on the theme! It took me a little bit to realize that finance was being generated slowly over time, but once I did, it was off to the races. Great job!

Glad you enjoyed! We spent a lot of time making sure the character felt fun to control. Glad that paid off!

This was a fun take on the theme! The character controls and restarting from the beginning made it a bit frustrating, but the puzzles were clever and I enjoyed it. Well done!

I dumped all of my coins into upgrading my jump, which was a blast. Great take on the theme!

Glad you enjoyed and were able to complete it! We decided to go with a more narrative approach to the theme, where the robot character is rebuilding the larger scale robot. Thanks for playing!

Thanks! We were happy with how much we could fit in in just the 48 hours! Being able to mix and match the cards really helped with adding variance to the decisions, which we liked a lot. Glad the dialogue struck a good chord as well!

There were many times during testing that we accidentally rolled over ourselves in the second stage by playing too aggressively in the tutorial stage, so we're happy that playing against a copy of yourself provides a unique difficulty curve.

In the current build the moves are all one to one, so if the round continues longer then it won't have any moves to pull from. Because of this we've found that focusing on surviving early by playing a lot of cards in their defensive form allows you to roll over the opponent once they stop playing units. After the voting period, we'll probably cycle back to this and give the whole game a balance pass.

Thanks! It isn't heavily pointed out in the game, but it's an extra layer of strategy to pay attention to once you figure it out. After the voting period, we'll probably go back and clean up some parts of the game including making it a bit more obvious that that's what's happening. The offense vs defense decision is my personal favorite part of the game, glad you liked it!

Glad you enjoyed! We're happy with how the player movement and audio feedback turned out! Should be a few more audio feedback additions in the future too!

Thanks for the feedback! We loved how interesting of a puzzle system the rolling die is. In a future update, we're planning on implementing a feature that helps people know what's on the hidden sides of the die. That should help make the rotations easier to plan out.

As a bunch of programmers, we're glad people are liking the art! It's great to hear that the puzzles were sufficiently puzzling! Thanks for playing!

Glad you enjoyed! We've all been working in Godot for a while, and it was great for this project.

Using the dice faces as beat subdivisions is a super interesting take on the theme. Trying to pick out if a beat was just two eighths or two offbeat 16ths was fun. I really appreciated that you could separate out the tracks from each other, as it made it much easier to be able to focus on one track at a time. Great work!

Interesting take on the theme! My one critique is that it was quite frustrating when I would assign two medics to a particular patient, and then they would have lived even if I hadn't assigned anyone, or they would have died even if the medics hit max roll. It made it feel like the only thing that really mattered was how well the survivor's roll was, which led to occasions where I would have more patients with no assigned medics survive than the ones I actually assigned medics to. Other than that, the atmosphere and storytelling through gameplay was well done. The stretching of the staff mechanically making it highly unlikely to be able to save everyone delivers well on the established mood.

Glad you liked it! We're really happy with how much we were able to get done in such a short amount of time. There's lots of time after the jam to improve execution. Thanks for playing!

The color matching was a unique take on this style of submission to the jam. I enjoyed playing around with the abnormal face layouts to get through the puzzles. Has good potential with even more added after the jam. Great work! 

Thank you! It was awesome to watch you play through it on stream. Thanks for the feedback!

Loved the art and music in this! Really made the puzzle solving a serene experience. Excellent work!

Thanks!  Liked the different vibe your approach took to the idea. Congratulations to you as well!

The gameplay alone was both endlessly entertaining and interesting, and on top of that, the killer theme and voice work just pushed it over the top. Great work, this was a ton of fun!

So glad you liked it! We have a lot of ideas for more mechanics and puzzles, so there will definitely be more to come!

That definitely is a tough position, but it is possible from there. In certain confined spaces, you won't be able to get all of the faces to the top, so you'll have to orient your die somewhere else.

Thanks so much! It's interesting seeing how different the execution is even on games with similar ideas. Loved your puzzles!

Really loved the falling transitions between levels. The final level's gimmick was really interesting. Great work!

You didn't do anything wrong, we just really ran out of time at the end.  Hoping to fix up level progression and enemy AI once the voting period is over.
