Thank you so much for the review! We definitely wanted to add a full in-game tutorial, but like you said, time was limited. Hopefully the in-game instructional animations were at least somewhat helpful! We spent a lot of time trying to balance the levels and toe the line of overwhelming vs challenging. Thanks for playing!
You guys deserve it! This game was great. I can't speak for my two teammates (they don't like the same kinds of games as me) but this game was phenomenal. Good luck with the jam!
I told myself I was done for the night. You commented on my game and so I said "okay, one more" and boy am I glad I did. This is a masterpiece. As a die-hard fan of Vampire Survivors, I loved every second of this game. The theme fits perfectly with it, the artwork and sound effects and character design are perfect, the mechanics and controls feel great. This is stellar. This feels ready to go on steam tomorrow. Everyone on the team should pat themselves on the back. Well done!
The models are cool, but it's really difficult to tell what's going on. Everything is dark and similar colors. Not really sure how it fits the theme either, but a good effort!
Good pixel art. I'm not sure how much it applies to the theme, but it's a fun little game. I think maybe adding a juggling mechanic or something would make it more exciting. Right now there's a lot of waiting between when fish jump. Good work!
Glad you still submitted even though it wasn't finished. Your pixel art style is good! I was really hoping there was some last easter egg after your message about killing the process to exit. Hope to see you back next year!
This is a really cool and unique idea. There's consequences to picking up weapons and consequences to absorbing them again. The player has to be creative about when and how to pick up weapons. Nice work! With some more features and polish, this could be a really fun full game!
I really like the style of this game! I wish you could undo or reset the editing mode because restarting the level after you made a mistake is rough. I think there's a lot of potential here for a fun puzzle platformer! Nice work!
This is such a cute and unique game. I feel like the gamplay is a little lopsided in favor of the alchemist, maybe that's intentional, but it would be fun for the familiar to have some little minigames to do as well! Great Job!
I love the concept and the artwork is fantastic! Really nice looking game. The controls are very tough since it's an isometric view with orthogonal controls and I feel like it moves very quickly and it's easy to mess up or hurt yourself. The bugs don't move on the same grid as the snake so it's tough to align yourself with them. But the core of this game is really solid and the design and visuals look great!
Super fun game! Not sure that it relates to the theme, but I had a ton of fun playing it! Just like that TV show I've seen clips of where contestants have to cut something in cut. So fun! Thanks for making and sharing this!
I really like the graphics and music. The game looks really good. I like that you had cooldown meters for the spells so the player knows how long they have. There were a couple frustrating parts where the character got stuck or the hitbox hit something I thought I could clear, but otherwise a solid game with interesting puzzles, nice job!
Music was nice but really loud. I like the cutscenes and the art style for the creatures. I know you didn't have a lot of time, but it's cool to see what you were going for. Hopefully you can polish it up after the jam!
As a red-blooded American, I found this game very easy and intuitive!
All jokes aside, a really clever and funny premise with good execution! It was fun slowly figuring out what different things weigh and knowing which ones to grab for different amounts. Nice work!
Really fun cute game! Well polished! Not buggy at all. Music is very good and fits the vibe perfectly. I wish there was a little more to spend upgrades on, maybe something to make your character faster? As the drill sped up I had a hard time moving around. Well done!
