This game radiates cuteness. The graphics, the item selection, the funny death screens, the fact that leaving is free oh my god this game is so cute. Large grin on my face the whole time.

Fantastic execution of the theme as well.

Nice game and cute art. Best death: by boredom, very funny! Had some troubles to see all the screen because the game is bigger than browser window

Really awesome game! I could see this being published!

I did get softlocked once, when I froze the red dots but didn't have an iron ingot in the bottom left.

Overall great game, awesome art and fluid mechanics. Well done!

I don't think that I have to mention once again, that death by boredom is ultra funny. I realy like the mechanic that you receive money for your deaths to buy stuff.

Couldn't figure out yet how to procede after the water, but I will for sure try again.

I really enjoyed this! If you kept going after the jam and added more items and different puzzle levels this could be great! Though the controls do need work as I felt like I was contorting my hand

kristinnes 2019-04-29 17:16

Great game. Almost killed me irl with that lorum ipsum thing

zubspace 2019-04-29 17:32

Very nice. I like the different items which you need to combine in different ways to progress. Good and simple art style, especially the player animations are great.

That was the best jam game i ever played. When i first saw the lorem ipsum part i am like "Yeah, i didn't know that, sounds interesting" and then really that part was boring. Then i laughed out loud. Really well done. One thing that i can say is a restart button. I sometimes have no change to die other than to play the lorem ipsum part again. Other than that, you got 5 stars from me!win.PNG

Super cool game! I loved the mechanic of having to find new unique ways to die and the puzzles were spot on. The lorem ipsum death was also really funny. Anyway, i got softlocked once in the bottom left corner, but other than that, awsome game!

paulhocker 2019-05-01 03:07

i laughed so hard when i died of boredom -- i want to play this game some more because it was a lot of fun -- great game -- thanks for making it

konh 2019-05-01 07:03

So funny game for me)

schizoid2k 2019-05-01 17:59

I like the art style you used. Interesting ways to die and the commentary is funny! Nice job.

tamail 2019-05-01 19:41

Really great game, I stopped playing it just because I got frustrated that the controls don't always react - the wings to be specific. I'd always die jumping over the laser just because the second jump wouldn't work there for some reason. But it's an awesome game - I like the graphics, the idea and the jokes! One won't die by bored while playing this game :)

sbeif 2019-05-01 20:27

Amazing, really creative interpretation of the theme and great execution. Well done!

nayaki-anandan 2019-05-01 20:40

I just really loved this game. Would like to see a bigger world with even more deaths!

schmavery 2019-05-01 20:45

So much content and really funny too! So well done :)

pablotitan 2019-05-01 20:52

Sometimes I try a suicide bomb planting :D This is really a strong entry, I like this game so much and it utilizes the theme well

mrtnldm 2019-05-01 20:57

Great art, overall very nice and felt polished and smooth. Liked the controls

pete-h 2019-05-01 21:00

Awesome interpretation of the theme and excellent execution. Having currency as a HUD element would have been nice (but thats really minor!)

Great submission, thank you!

The game was fun! I want to spoil some deaths because they were fun but I won't. It fits pretty well the theme. Thanks.

gorrion 2019-05-02 17:54

What an interesting idea! The only issue I had was navigation in the shop UI. The controls there were a little bit unresponsive.

jake-white 2019-05-02 18:16

Very excellent game idea! This is probably the best take on the theme I've seen.

duke 2019-05-02 18:28

Very very creative entry! The best use of the theme I played so far. The gameplay is on point and easy to understand. The art is ok and sound woul've been nice, but that's fine. I had some problems navigating the shop. Half of the time, the down cursor did not work, which annoyed me a little. But great stuff nontheless! Keep up the good work

rudra-nil-basu 2019-05-02 18:49

Everything about the game was very well executed. Easily one of the best games I've played in this LD till now!

rahtainka 2019-05-02 23:33

Realy nice and good compo entry. I love the idea.

**Positive things: **

- nice graphics - very polished for a compo entry - fits the theme perfectly and it's a nice interpretation of it - it's fun, not to hard and not to esay

**Negative things: **

- music and sounds would be nice but this is complain at a high level

Your game is my favourite compo entry so far and it's better than other jam entrys! Well done.

jin9310 2019-05-03 12:59

Oh yes! This is amazing idea and had so much fun! Great job!

nyri0 2019-05-04 14:02

One of the best games I have played so far for this edition. I really liked how you needed to combine all these items to explore new areas and finally get to the cup. Good work!

minibobbo 2019-05-04 22:19

This was a ton of fun! I'm a big fan of the repeating levels with upgrades. Like a mini-metroidvania! I only found 9 of 10 but was able to finish the game.

Graphics were perfect for this game. The movement and feel was very smooth. I really liked it.

Like others have said, music and sound would have added to this a lot, but that's life.

bradur 2019-05-05 06:37

Terrific game! I had fun finding all the ways to die. I really liked the writing in this game. With sound, the atmosphere would have gone through the roof! I managed to find all the ways to die. The shop UI was a little clunky.

dock-frankenstein 2019-05-05 07:55

I've played this game in a video.

One of my favorite games of this ldjam!

tbaudon 2019-05-06 13:15

Very nice idea. At first i had trouble because i didn't understand that i get my money back each life haha. But then it was really fun. Loved how my character melted of boredom

awesomealliterationalliance 2019-05-06 21:23

Brilliant game! When this friendly looking fella started with the sentence "lorem ipsum", I thought "Oh boy, another unfinished game here", but you got me, you got me gooood! :D Listening to that story was hilarious, but to have to player die from it was genious! 5/5 in Humor, just for that one! Once I saw that, I wanted to find every possible death in the game. Concerning the theme, you hit it square on the money! Really really nice entry! Hats off to you!

cyrolis 2019-05-17 19:06

This game was reaaaaaaaaly fun, well done !!!!

jjjjason 2019-05-21 20:38

Congrats on being the most fun!

mika-la-grand 2019-05-22 14:08

This sure is an innovative game! Some welcome changes would be audio, being able to skip the typewriter text effect, persistant purchases (now reset when dying) and being able to equip and unequip purchases.

@pov How can this game and Coin-Op Kid both be number 1 in the fun category, while they have different ratings?

pablotitan 2019-05-23 08:17

Congratulations! :D

dis0rder 2019-06-05 16:45

This was a really fun game. The experience of beating it completely feels very rewarding somehow.

I really like the combination of platformer and problem-solving, since I've been trying to implement something quite similiar in a project of my own that I've been cooking up, but haven't returned to develop in a very long time. Therefore not only was this a fun playing experience, but it also provided a huge inspiration for me.

Great job!

Hello ! (ou salut ! tu as l'air français mais je ne suis pas sûr alors je continue en anglais :D )

Your little "metroidvania" made ma laugh a lot, I made a little review about it (in french) there :
