Eat, Sleep, Repeat

This game is really cute :smiley: .The repeating nature of the tasks really make you feel like you are actually stuck in a loop so I think it goes well with the theme. The art is really nice, colorful and impressively polished. I especially like the dog on the cup and toothbrush. Pip's eyes, while initially gave me a good laugh, actually seem to convey a deeper meaning regarding how people can really get lost in their everyday tasks and lose sight of what makes them happy. I had a lot of fun in the driving task, I liked the controls of the car and the different car spawns on each run. Good job!

I think you achieved the monotony and repetitivenss that can accompany daily tasks; however, the order in which tasks are given do not seem to follow a specific order-- hence not really a loop. The order in which tasks are completed do not make sense in a timeline-- they appear to be random (not sure if this is intentional).

For all the buttons on the start screen, there is no visual distinction between them. Since they all have the same font, font color, bkgd color, etc. one would assume they all function the same (as a clickable button); however, the top one is actually a title and not a button. I think it may also be helpful to have some visual feedback when the mouse hovers over the button.

The loading screen took me a while to realize was a loading screen-- the same color theme was used for the buttons on the start screen, so it visually implies it should have the same function.

The summary of this game mentions the player accomplishes the basic tasks as the character Pip; though, Pip is only shown in the dressing minigame.

The music communicates well when a task is either completed successfully or when failed with the upwards chime and vice versa.

@super-game-developer Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed our game.

I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't too enganged in the gameplay, but what really kept me playing was the art. I just love it. It is so cute and cartoony. It adds an excellent atmosphere to the game.

I think you really captured the mood with the way the game looks, feels, and sounds. As a fellow UE4 user I'm curious. Did you use paper2D or were these just widget blueprints?

syafire 2020-10-06 02:39

Thank you! Paper2D was used yes @diefleder

Great guitar playing, but sound effect are lacking, so is music in general. I didn't understand the gameplay of some task at all and couldn't get the hang of it because of the timer, so i found myself in a non-engaging gameplay.However, the art looks great. Good work!

Although the game is laggy for me (it might be because of my laptop) and I'm not sure if there's some bugs or glitches due to my lag, and I'm wondering if the game is complete or not, your game is definitely a big mood for me. The art style is also cute. I don't mind that there is no music for this game because of the atmosphere and the audio suits the theme and atmosphere very well. It definitely feels like an endless loop when we fail a simple task. Nice job <3

This game is really cute and a unique take on the theme. I would love to play it if you port it to mac or webgl!

I liked your game my congratulations, I also did one if you want to know, and give me your feedback I am very grateful, this is the link https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/resurrection

You forgot the "Rave" part :)

Doesn't really fit your art style, but I thought I'd mention it

syafire 2020-10-07 18:05

@snowinn Thank you so much!

Thank you @etrealjunior

Hahah Rave x,D I bet I could make it work @necauqua

I like the graphics, and the mini game collection aspect of the game. There are few mini-game where it's difficult to understand what i need to do like midnight breakfast for example. In general it lack of visual feedback for mouseover, and mouse clicking effect (in menu for example). Anyway that's fun and entertaining ! Good job !

syafire 2020-10-07 18:31

Great feedback thank you! @robowarrior1982

Hello! :)

I enjoyed your game! I think I played it more than I was meant to, it's weirdly addictive. I like the toothpaste minigame the best, I think it's the most creative idea. The art is cute and very charming!

I have one tiny critique, sometimes I get the same minigame several times in a row. I actually managed to get 'midnight snack' 4 times in a row haha.

I ran into a bug or two. I think the midnight snack minigame was broken for me? I only had bread and as soon as I placed it the game finished. Also sometimes I win the minigame and it fails me right after. I tried to figure out why but I couldn't track it down.

Maybe you could group the minigames into a day and keep track of how many days you go without screwing up. It would give a bit more of a goal.

Great work overall! Well done!

A pretty fun small game about everyday chores, but sometimes tasks aren't clear.

syafire 2020-10-07 23:24

@verso Thank you so much! I thought so too playing mini games over and over was fun!

For sure! We had it RNG the mini games but for some reason RNG likes to run some games over and over x,D

Thank you yes we were going to add cheese and meat to Midnight Snack but we didn't have time.

Yea the whole having a day system and continuing to move through days would be super epic. We had thought about that.

Thank you so much your feedback was wonderful.

syafire 2020-10-07 23:25

Thank you for your feedback! I will keep this in mind for the future @tricky-fat-cat

I liked the minigames! Kinda reminded me of Among Us, but without all the murder and deduction. Very fun game.

aless 2020-10-07 23:42

AWesome experience, the music and the graphics are perfect for this kind of game. Unfortunately, some of the tasks got me confused for a while. The mini games choices is really a super original idea, first time I see that in this game jam.

uncle-rip 2020-10-08 00:01

It's very nice game. But i have some qwestions: 1. Where is a toothbrush? 2020-10-08_02-52-50.png 2. Where is some sandwich staff? I see only bread. 2020-10-08_02-51-57.png

Overall good job! And 5 stars for Pip eyes. it made me laugh :)

syafire 2020-10-08 00:07

@nailuj29-gaming Hello! Thank you. I thought of Amoung as well when I was working on the art xD.

syafire 2020-10-08 00:08

@aless Thank you for your feedback and thanks for playing!

syafire 2020-10-08 00:09

@uncle-rip The toothbrush should slide in at the end to get the toothpaste. And We never had time coding wise to add the meet and cheese so we had to go with a bread sandwitch x,D Thanks for the feedback!

dablob 2020-10-08 08:45

Cute art and interesting concept. I would have liked to see it pushed more tho !

syafire 2020-10-08 17:23

I agree, also thank you! @dablob

spawncampgames 2020-10-10 17:06

Very enjoyable.. I liked the art. Im a fan of Mini-games as is.. The only thing i can suggest is would be that a little bit more audio would have set it off.. And perhaps some button feedback for the main menu.. Maybe just grow the button a little when you hover over it.. People love feedback :)

syafire 2020-10-10 23:20

Great advice, thank you! @spawncampgames

ericbolseiro 2020-10-14 00:13

great art and music. A great job done here. congratulations.

thygrrr 2020-10-14 19:53

Pretty difficult to play, but has a large variety of nicely drawn mini games. I like the guitar jingle when I lose, too!

I don't know how many mini games there are, but I am still discovering new ones.

syafire 2020-10-17 00:15

Thank you both! @ericbolseiro @thygrrr

angiekatneko 2020-10-27 04:40

This is very cute, loved the mini games. It really felt like the loop wouldn’t end 😅
