No idea what engine you're using but if it's at all possible to get a browser version up via WebGL, I'd love to be able to try this one!

this is a super cool take on the theme and i love the art style and setting of it

kieron-woodhouse 2021-04-26 15:56

Very cool, and an original take on the theme. If I had any criticism, I think the pacing might be a little off. Most of the games are quite short and fast paced, but it felt like I was spending much longer on the pong and the "don't touch the sides" maze levels. I also found it a bit too repetitive by time I reached 50+, but that's fair enough for a jam game! Visually, it's excellent, and the audio is good too. Great job.

(Edit: Actually, looking at your screenshots, I think I had a small bug. In the 'turn over the correct pair of cards' game, the cards had no back, they just disappeared when flipped over. This made it a little harder to tell where the cards were supposed to be, but it was still playable)

@kieron-woodhouse I deffinetly agree that the pacing is a bit off. If I have time before the deadline I might try tweaking some of the games a bit and maybe add one or two more, but I don't think I'll have time to do that.

niiiceee concept very good and funy game

thulium-games 2021-04-26 16:06

@kernon I'm using Unity. If I have time to update the game, I'll see if a web build will work.

Fun little Warioware-like game! Also I'll admit that I got fooled by the exe being a file icon for a second, lol.

thulium-games 2021-04-26 16:11

@kieron-woodhouse Is the card game the only one with an issue? I think I know what's causing it but I can't really test because I don't have that issue even in the build.

Great job! Really cool take on going deeper and deeper, I enjoyed how even the download has recursive folders! Bumping music too.

If you wanted to improve this even further, maybe the first time the player does the pong game it could be nice to have a temporary overlay outside of the minigame window. Something to tell the player they need to use the mouse wheel basically! I died the first time after attempting to drag the paddle with my mouse button or use the arrow keys haha. But yeah, terrific job.

kieron-woodhouse 2021-04-26 16:25

@thulium-games Only issue I saw, yeah

sgtscum 2021-04-27 00:21

Great take on the theme. with a few more minigames i feel like it could be a hard to put down game

kp-cftsz 2021-04-27 03:56

Neat game, there is a little bug near the end

thulium-games 2021-04-27 03:59

@kp-cftsz What's the bug?

andrewdavidj 2021-04-27 04:39

The amount of content you've managed to cram in there within the time limit is really impressive! Really loved this one, great work!

dtersegno 2021-04-27 17:03

Love the look and music and concept. Agree that the key should follow the mouse more quickly and a visual cue on the Pong game. Love it overall!

Nice game, the way you have to dive into folders to find the .exe was a cool, made me smile

canvasdev 2021-04-27 17:13

oooooowwwww i love this game <3

creepyface 2021-04-28 16:51

This might just be the best game i played today :O!! its so AMAZING! AND THE MUSIC AHHHH 5 STARS

eugenik 2021-04-28 20:08

Astounding!!!.

masterproject 2021-05-01 16:16

It's a fun game with nice aesthetics and a great soundtrack, and the minigames are engaging enough. My only point of criticism is the lack of variety after a while...

g12345 2021-05-02 15:24

The folders that you need to travel before finding the .exe file was a nice touch.

You made so many minigames within the jam time, that's a lot!

Took me a while to understand how the pong paddles worked; I've tried every single key on the keyboard lol :stuck_out_tongue:

I didn't found the memory matching game while playing; i did got 10-20 pong levels instead.

Nice game!

Funny take on "Deeper and deeper". Maybe just increase the difficulty as you go deeper into subfolders.

witekwitek 2021-05-07 19:04

This game is great. The graphics look nice and polished.

The OST/Soundtrack is fitting and sounds great.

It was really fun trying to get a new score.

I like how you interpret the theme uniquely.

Maybe could've had more minigames.

This looks great for an game jam game. -WitekWitek

jonathan-lorenz 2021-05-15 15:32

I love the idea! Very interesting interpretation of the theme! I didn't understood what to do with the pong mini game tho. I will remeber this one, good work!
