GameJam Sacrifices

Really nice idea, reminding you not to take gamejams too extremely. The graphics are nice and vibrant. At first I didn't really understand what the winning conditions were. After a few tries I understanded that getting the game progress bar to the end without running out of others weren't the end goal. So you had to sacrifice your project a bit more than other things. Anyways a solid gamejam game and I hope you will make some more in the future. Also, the cat is cute ;)

I love the idea. It's perfect for this game jam. It's very interesting but I feel a lot more has to be done to make the game more fun and addictive. I also like the night and day transitions. GJ!

@antti-haavikko it was built with unity into the "PC, mac and linux standalone" I originally thought it'd automatically work for all three. Thanks for the heads up!

Oh I see, there is a dropdown where you select the platform and you need to build to each separately.

I coudld've completed the game if it weren't for the cat :(

Nice game! I liked the events trying to distract you from the task at hand, and how matter of factly you can dismiss them :)

@kinuni well that just means you didn't give her enough attention. Never forget your pets needs, even during ludum dare :P

I feel that cat was all take and no give.

I liked the sounds and graphics but I hate the cats walking on the keyboard ! My progress was lost ! :-) It was fun :-)

The Self Awareness is good and all, but it is not exactly fun. Also got some strange text bugs (probably because of my aspect ratio) 9wl0z_wcwkc.jpg3LYt3MHSuNo.jpg But they are my fault not yours, overall I would not say that the take on a theme is original but at least it is different so kudos for that.

I had a lot of fun with your game! I love the art and the audio.

Great game overall but, on my second game, I lost with nothing at zero (I was close but not at zero) so I wonder if it is what is intended, if it is because I took too much coffee or a bug?

Aside from that, the game is cool with nice interactions (I hate the cat ^^) and great graphics. Maybe an indicator to show the time remaining to end the game would be nice: the day/night cycle help but on the last day, it is impossible to know how much we have

good job :)

The constant obstacles felt all too familiar! I liked the art style in this game, and the audio was very well done! Also, I liked the use of the theme; it was simplistic, but it led to an entertaining and relatable experience. The game was a little confusing at first. Although it didn't take long to adapt, it still would've been nice if there was some sort of tutorial. That's just a small thing, though. Overall, this was a great entry! Well done!
