This was great! Really well-written, crazy-polished music and some really clever methods for creating more active puzzles in Bitsy. I'm gonna spend my £25 well.

Was unable to figure out what to do, watchers kept killing me, but the writing I did see was very amusing.

Great game. Visuals are awesome. Music is great. Solid entry ! :)

I got stuck and a bit frustrated repeatedly trying to get past the watchers. but nice work digging the pixel style :)

Great mood, great graphics, great music, great humor. Everything is fine. And so are lasagnas. All hail supreme beings!

Thanks for the positive feedback so far. :) The Watchers look in all 4 directions (up down left right), but can't see past any blocks in those directions. The key is to work out the route through the room, avoiding being in their direct line of sight.

Very artistic, good feel. My only problem with it is the long corridors in the leftmost section are kind of a pain to traverse.

I had to talk to the divine being twice before the ending dialog played.

Great feel to the game, I really like the style of it and the humor in your writing. Got a little tedious moving through the maze each time. Great work, keep it up!

I'll say this even before playing the game: the best name ever! Let's see how the game holds up...

**musical interlude**

Ok, nice! I love the retro art style and while simple the game was really fun! Took me a few tries to figure out how those eyes worked, but at least I got the right offering on the first try!

Great work!

Love the style and colour choices, bold and bright, lovely. And the main character's little dance was awesome. The dialog with the Supreme Beings when I brought the wrong offering made me laugh too :D

I like this graphic minimalism. the text is animated in dialogues - it gives intonation. The dialogs cannot be missed completely (The music is very good

Great game. Well written with clever puzzles and a lot of details. Absolute loved playing it. Can even tink of anything to improve, it's perfect.

Cool style. Would love to make a game with this art-style. Keep going, good job!

microwerx 2020-04-22 04:05

Wow! Fun and super cool. This is one of my faves this LD. I really liked the puzzle element and the cool wavy text effects. I hope to make games this cool some day.

Well written and great humor, visually fun and appealing, background music to groove to, a nice simple puzzle... just a great game.

Really good game, definitely pushing the limits on what you can do with Bitsy, great work! Really like the music too, fits well

devharts 2020-04-24 06:09

I really enjoyed the puzzle aspect and the amusing dialogue, and it has a cute and cohesive pixel art style. I admittedly died a few times before I successfully got the offering to the house of adulation, though it was satisfying when I did finally make it. Nice work overall! :)

szieberth-adam 2020-04-24 20:30

A gem. So far this game I enjoyed the most. Thanks!

franklins-ghost 2020-04-26 15:34

The writing in this is great, liked reading all the dialogue and seeing more of the humour and world building. Took me a few goes to release what the Watchers were doing but once I figured it out it became a lot clearer and easier to navigate around. Liked the puzzles and levels layout which I thought was well done.

g12345 2020-04-28 15:31

The music is great here! The puzzles are a bit easy but fine enough for a compo game. I'll see that 25 pound note soon, I hope :tongue: The story is great too.

paulhocker 2020-04-29 01:49

really liked the concept of this and the puzzle aspect was great. another great example that you don't need fancy graphics and explosions to have a good game. just huge deity that oppresses an entire civilization.

geckoo1337 2020-05-02 14:01

Interesting gameplay and artwork, but the music is just AMAZING! Well done ++

Really amazing game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 46 compilation video series, if you want to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/HbpVWKRHlfc

I like the graphics and the audio of the game, however I struggled a bit to get through the watcher it was a bit frustrating. Could adjust that part, but overall its a good game

garygreen 2020-05-11 21:39

Thanks again everyone for the useful & positive feedback and for playing the game. :)
