It's a pretty cool game. One bug I noticed was that sometimes the ball would go through a wall or the paddle when going fast. I'm not sure but I think continuous collision detection could resolve this problem.
A solid choice for bullet hell enthusiasts, featuring impressive graphics and spot-on music and audio effects. It's a bit hard and I couldn't progress too far. I tried to fight the boss several times and I wish there were some health indicator or some parts would fall off when you shoot at it.
The game is a bit too hard for a game jam but it shows your skill level and it seems that you know what you're doing.
The game was pretty extreme. The flamethrower is a nice weapon choice, I wish it was a bit more lethal though. Also the mouse controls are kinda useless in this game and I think I'd feel more comfortable using just the keyboard or a controller.
The graphics and the audio are great and on point. The Santa fight, even though not very challenging, was very fun.
Thank you for the review. It was a deliberate decision for us to mix different pixel densities, as we weren't aiming for strictly canonical pixel art. Maintaining a consistent ratio was challenging due to the cat changing in size, and using a preset viewport would have made it appear even jankier. I'm aware of the standards within the pixel art community, and apologize if our game disappointed you. We weren't aiming for that traditional look.
Good, game and fits the theme very well. It was hard for me to play with a mouse, I think it should be easier on a tablet. Nevertheless, the style is very consistent and I really enjoyed playing it.
A very well-made game. The graphics, music, and sound are very good. The gameplay is also well-defined.
The inertia of the character feels kinda weird, like, it's too slippery everywhere. Also, I would like to use Space for jumping and to use both of my hands while playing. The final boss was a bit anti-climactic but I think you just didn't have time for that. Also, the wall jump was barely needed throughout the game.
A great platformer overall. A few tweaks and you'll have a great base for a great game.
I was able to gather a development team where everyone could do anything. Three of my employees were working on every job together like a team. We collected more than 6k, then I let everyone take a break for the rest of their short lives.
Controls were very easy to grasp but I wish I had more control over the trajectory. Also, the knife/sword things appeared randomly and sometimes would spawn nearby and block the way to the customer.
Anyway, it was a good shift at the OVERLOAD bar. This is a pretty solid game, I really enjoyed the bizarreness of everything going on.
Collected more than 300 eggs and a giant chicken appeared at the top left corner of the screen. I think this is the real ending :D
I really like the upgrades you can buy but I think there were too few. At some point, it's just impossible to not lose any eggs, and I tried different combinations.
Anyway, it's a good start, and the gameplay is pretty captivating. The graphics are a bit weird, combining different assets with different styles, but it serves the idea well.
Thank you very much. We planned to add even more "disassembly" but we only had enough time to shut down the abilities. It's still turned out pretty cool IMO but we decided that it's not enough for the "Disassemble" wildcard. It's cool that you noticed this, even though we didn't specify that.
Awesome graphics! The best font choice I've seen in this jam. The game is very consistent and the idea is pretty cool too. Very good choice of music, it really sets the tone and creates a relaxing experience.
I liked that the explosive tiles explode at a constant rate, so you know exactly when you can stand on those. The audio is pretty good and the overall assets are pretty consistent. I really liked how you introduced the player to the game mechanics, instantly showing what kinds of traps they will face. I didn't get why after getting all three hearts the girl was still crying. :_)
Thank you! I usually do my own audio and it's especially sad for me that I didn't have time for that. I'm glad you liked the palette, we originally went with the Ghibli palette but we decided that it wasn't dream-like enough so we changed it to look more like NMS :)
Thank you! Yeah, we added the intro sequence at the last moment in a rush and the goal was just to have it there. I'm glad you enjoyed the overall game.
Thank you! The controls should've been better but unfortunately, we hadn't had time to polish it (we planned to make it controller-friendly as well as allow rebinding). I'm glad you liked the overall game
I really liked the game. It comes all the way from existential dread to existential dread. Unfortunately, my mouse got stuck in the center when I had to choose a dream so I went with the cave plant (don't remember the name). I think it will take them some time to come up with a new dream looking at that lone start at the ceiling :)
This is the first game in this jam that's not about dreams as when you sleep but about dreams as life goals. The dialogues are very cool. Also, the music even though it sounds like generic audio stocks kind of music is very fitting.
