Amazingly confusing at first :D
cool puzzle game.
Loved it! Nice music, cute graphics, good stuff!
I clicked for the cute "cuddle fish" 'cause I like puns, and cute things, AND cuttle fish, which made this one seem pretty perfect.
Then I found out it was a guess-the-word-I'm-thinking-of game and cringed a little... But, for one of those, this was well done! Especially for the time frame. You included words that were close to the right one, like "basket" being close to "bowl." A few complaints though.
For one, when you miss one it's possible to get the one you just missed a second time. That shouldn't happen unless it's the very last one; otherwise, the one you just did should be locked out of the order.
For another, it seems like sometimes you can lose life by selecting something, but it turns out to be the wrong thing. And maybe this is just my imagination, but it seems like you lose time with wrong guesses. Neither of those should be in the game.
Anyway, the categories were fun and fun to play. My favorite was the man crossing the river. "Oh, thank you!"
If only I could figure out how to "Shade him!"
So far I've tried parasol, tree, cloud, awning, SHADE ITSELF, house, tent... Even mountain. I was like, "Well that horizon looks pretty bare, maybe a mountain would block the sun enough?" But nope! And I lost life for trying!
A game about making the right crazy guess in time should encourage crazy guesses, instead of punishing them like that. Overall though, I liked it a lot. Good job.
Tons of fun!
@thegoofromspace Thanks for the feedback. Kept old ones in the running so people could try again.
And my bad on the Shade him XD. I should of included mountain but didn't think to.
I went back and fixed some typos and things I missed. Can only fix small mistakes per the rules.
this game is pretty interesting.
Fun little game! I thought it moved a little slow with six seconds between each round, but otherwise I had fun with it. Music was great and the sound effects made me laugh.
A fun little game, great length, and quite amusing to play. Great audio.
Cool concept. I like the fact that there is more than one answer. The sillyness reminds me of WarioWare.
Great entry! Love these types of games.
The countdown could be shorter. Maybe three seconds. And I never figured out Save Them! Ohhhhhh a dam! Also, you can upload a Post-Ludum entry if you wish. Just keep the original links so people can vote on the Jam version.
I really enjoyed this little game. Some of them were to easy to guess but others had me thinking for a little bit. Maybe its just me but I kinda enjoyed destroying that village with the water. I also enjoyed the animations, it added a nice humorous effect. I would say they only problems with it was not enough scenerios and options for each scenerio.
Pretty cute and fun game! The art isn't amazing, but you kept the theme throughout the game, and it has its own charm. I think you absolutely nailed the little human sound effects, they're really fun!
I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to save the picnic though. Any combination of insect/bug spray/repellent didn't seem to work, and a net or water only made it worse :( Also, I don't get why we need to wait 7 seconds between stages. Any specific reason?
Apart from that, kudos to getting synonyms. Alarm instead of clock, handkerchief instead of tissue... Good job!
Love that FM synth! Tough type of game to make (never enough synonyms to please everyone), but was pretty fun. Can't turn down a good title pun.
Good initiative to use GodotEngine !
But I can't start your game in Linux:
./cuddle fish: error while loading shared libraries: libXcursor.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
@picxinet That error is probably because the game is in 32bit and the library it's trying to use is 64bit. I'll upload a 64bit version, but in the meantime you can try to install the 32bit version of the library.
Not really my type of game but the art style is pretty fun :D 5/5 humor
I was so frickin' sold when I saw the title screen. But no osx port :(
Cool idea for the theme. Good job!
Thanks for playing our game! Epic countdown screen and timer. Was sad to see the cuddle-fish cry! -t
Crashes right away on OS X :-(
Very well done. Reminds me of Wii titles like Wario Ware. Lots of crunch. Great job!
Took some time to get used to but then i really liked to experiment with it. Good work!
Really liked the game :) the graphics are cute and it's well done. I think it could have some tips about the word, as the time goes...but nice work.
@lanestp I just tried rebuilding with some different options. I don't have a mac so I can't really test it :/
This is pretty funny! haha
And random!
Reminded me of McPixel.
Great job!
This was really fun. ^^ Reminded me of WarioWare and Scribblenauts. Good job!
Need to have an online dictionary open since I don't know all the english words lol. Interesting take on the theme, makes a very hectic game. I think the waiting time in between is too long tho.
So cute :)
Awesome game. This is a pretty fun little experience.
Nice concept! It was a hard one X)
Love the Wario Ware Feeling ;)
Awesomely addictive game, love that it's an interesting spin on WarioWare and I love seeing the cuttle fish transform into things. I just wish there could be a couple more options sometimes :) But I understand the challenge is in figuring out the word to use.
