Great game! The first striking thing is that the game background matches seamlessly with the page background, it produces a really cool effect. While watching the intro scene I wasn't sure what the gameplay would be like and it felt like playing a bunch of mini-games was a perfect fit. All of them were clever and well implemented with good graphics and sound. The minesweeper one was particularly intimidating the first time through but it ended up not being too rough. Really impressive work all around, nice job!

henrik-ganard 2022-04-05 08:15

Great game. I loved the intro and the graphics. The minigames are, some good and some less good, but overall a great experience. I could not figure out how to eat the sushi but hey, Il survive on meat instead. The thing I liked most with the game was the sound-design. Really good job.

puree-adventure 2022-04-05 13:06

Wow that is really impressive ! The sound-design is absolutly awesome, the art is absolutly awesome, the games are awesome, this is a really strong entries ! Well done everyone I had fun! (Also I love the details of your group's name everywhere, it really add to the world and it is really fun).

starerik 2022-04-05 13:19

@puree-adventure Thank you very much for playing and for the very kind words! Glad you had fun!

cakts 2022-04-05 16:11

Had lots of fun playing this, my only complaint is that I think showing the rocket between each mini-game can be a bit abrupt and ruin the fast-paced flow of the games for a 5 second cut-scene between each one. The art style was super great and I loved the audio as well. Great work! :smile:

morganmoon 2022-04-05 18:40

Wow!! This looked and sounded super polished. Y'all have done a really great job on this

snowycocoon 2022-04-05 21:57

This is the definition of the 5/5 in every aspect. I love this WarioWare vibe and mechanics. I'm amazed that you've managed to create such a beautiful project in such a short time. Hope that you guys will score very high in the ranking! You deserve it.

nyanpierre 2022-04-05 22:08

I absolutely loved it, you can feel the inspiration in wario ware games, the context makes the game consistent with the theme and I even thought it was funny. good work !

jotne 2022-04-05 22:09

The minigames are obviously not AAA games (slightly variable quality), but the overall experience is really fun. Love it!

okamit 2022-04-05 22:13

Thank you all for the great feedback! <3

cyangmou 2022-04-05 22:14

Loved the Intro, really great music and sound design. Reminded me a lot of Wario Ware. The transition between minigames could be way faster, as the sequencing took always equally long as playing a game, aside from that great job throughout.

sagiii 2022-04-05 22:15

Hello! Nothing to say I enjoyed being tested by the supreme lord from another galaxy.

andrground 2022-04-05 22:35

Amazing artstyle, awesome stylization! Reminds me of Broken Age. Wish it was more challenging though

hechi 2022-04-05 22:41

I really wish you continue with the development of this game, it's wonderful. The sound design and the art is outstanding. I am impressed with how polished it feels. The WarioWare developers would be proud. Congratulations! :heart:

dante2001 2022-04-05 23:42

was looking forward to your game after the previous witch game! rly nicely done!!

crychair 2022-04-06 01:54

Great game! Love the wario-ware-esk feel. My only real suggestion would be some of the games dont end when you are "done". For example the egg game lasted through the entire timer even though at the earlier levels i have gotten all the eggs. Also sometimes the eggs are pre spawned and i barely have enough time to catch them.

okamit 2022-04-06 02:06

@crychair Yeah, we have some tweaking to do when the jam is over, and perhaps a few minigames to add that didn't make it in time!

Thanks for the feedback! And thanks to all others as well!

foxwater 2022-04-06 02:49

I really got a kick out of this game! I played until I was certain that I had seen each mini game because they were all so well done. The opening sequence reminded me of the giant heads episode from Rick and Morty but with a twist. I was most impressed by the smooth transition between games that kept the whole experience so fluid. The audio was also super playful and fit the excellent art style. Really really well done!

velvetlobster 2022-04-06 04:24

best vibe I have seen in the LD so far, so original, so clever and funny, I wanna see a full game of this

izhvaryag 2022-04-06 07:34

XD it was fun! Good job

sega23333 2022-04-06 07:39

its cool puzzle bundle

minusc 2022-04-06 07:53

A great take on Wario Ware, really fun. Games looks great and is working quite perfectly. The music work is quite amazing, it fits perfectly and there's a lot of them.

pepnou 2022-04-06 08:21

haha XD. I had a fun time. How did you have the time to do all those minigames ? Art and music are great and the game works really well.

Great entry!

mekuri 2022-04-06 09:21

I love a good mini game, especially if there's more of them. I really liked how they eventually got... quite hard. The game felt very well polished, and the mini games were self-explanatory (For some of them after a couple of attempts) Also the audio felt just right - All in all a very polished game - Nice job.

Thanks for sharing your game :-)

shawn-beck 2022-04-06 09:26

I enjoyed the mini games! My only feedback is that the transitions between them could be faster. Love the brushwork on some of the games.

wondry 2022-04-06 09:32

I love intro, cool puzzles

finn-pickart 2022-04-06 12:20

Great game. It's very polished and looks very professional. Nothing like It was done in 72 hours (That's a compliment not distrust :) I love the art and the music. The game would work great on mobile. There's a lot you have to do with a mouse and would work great on a touchscreen

kylazaur 2022-04-06 12:33

This game was SOO GOOD!

First game I think I'm going to download and save for later, would I like voices for the dialogue at the beginning but after the intro, seeing how much content there is... chefs kiss 5/5 all day everyday! Awesome job, great entry!

okamit 2022-04-06 12:37

@finn-pickart We will try to make that a reality!

@shawn-beck Thank you for the suggestion, we will polish the game a bit after the jam! And thank you, It was fun drawing high res art as a change from pixel art, a whole different workflow!

@andrground Comparing it with Broken Age is a great compliment, thank you! :heart:

Thank you all for the great feedback!

okamit 2022-04-06 12:38

@kylazaur Thank you, that's a great compliment! :heart:

xeke-death 2022-04-06 13:33

The sushi just dropped while I tried to move it every time. Took a few goes to understand the safe one. Nice collection of different minigames.

voxar 2022-04-06 14:18

So much fun! Great intro and story. Excellent execution. Graphics holds together in a funny quick jam style. Lots of content (counting the increasing difficulty levels)! Super fun music and sounds! Well done!

Keep it FRESH!

ocwal 2022-04-06 14:40

OMG! We had a similar idea to the "Scramble eggs" mini game you guys have. :D We went for our rover idea instead tho. Really cool intro, nice sound effects and playful graphics! Loved the quick mini game setup. Well done! :D

kaminos 2022-04-06 16:19

hahaah that was fun! i like the idea of integrating so many tiny educational games into one. The graphics are really nice! Also the lore & music are fantastic and funny. Great job guys :)

taran95 2022-04-06 16:43

The game was fun and creative. I also like your game page.

jamieok 2022-04-06 16:57

This is great! The art is super polished and nice to look at, the audio works great too for a humorous minigame project. The minigames themselves work perfectly and would be at home in any minigame-style full length project. There were also enough minigames and levels of difficulty that made them feel FRESH even if you'd played that minigame previously. Really impressive, great work :)

yogurtthehorse 2022-04-06 17:38

Omg! Graphics and sounds are so cool! But I hope the life of humanity will not depend on me.......

adncoach 2022-04-06 17:42

Mines are too dangerous =(

wilko 2022-04-06 17:48

Great mini-games! Although I just couldn't work out the tooth game. I would have liked a score so that I could compare my runs.

sequoiadolce 2022-04-06 17:51

WOW!! Holy cow that was insane. Your graphics are beautiful and your music and sound design were immaculate!! I loved every bit of it and the game was fantastic. The series of minigames especially with the timer you had on them reminded me of warriorware in a way, but still very unique and with such a great spin! Awesome awesome work!

wlqwos 2022-04-06 18:17

Grpahics r cute and games are short and fun but diverse. Enjoyable enough, love it!

adriannowak97 2022-04-06 18:19

Intro is the best!

gravityflip 2022-04-06 19:15

Great game! I love how put together and polished this feels! It really delivers the full package in exactly the way I want this kind of game to do. Crazy good effort! Bra jobba, søta bror!

pat-cleaver 2022-04-06 19:31

I think this might be my favourite game I've tried so far from this jam, so polished! Really love the music and so much cool art! Congrats!

mmisspelling 2022-04-06 19:38

what can I say if not FRESH. but really. it's so so fun! and the art looks amazing, this is super polished!

ardakrkz 2022-04-06 19:44

Simple yet incredible. Greeat audio direcetion!

iguanana 2022-04-06 19:48

Looks great and fun to play! Great job!

exopunk 2022-04-06 20:35

Loved the variety of the mini games and the difficulty on those, the execution is amazing, the graphics and music fit perfectly for each mini game. Really fun game had an awesome time with it!

gabriel-dias-oliveira-de-almeida 2022-04-06 20:39

I HATE THE SUSHI, BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS PERFECT! jk

Congratulations guys for this amazing Wario Ware type of game, the mini games are so fun to play :D

forgin-bits 2022-04-06 21:34

Damn the sushi one was kinda hard ! Great compilation of mini games, all very polished and cleanly executed, and good overall pacing and difficulty curve. Loved the Wario Ware design, I did that myself for my entry ! Overall a great submission, great job ! :thumbsup:

jvdwijk 2022-04-06 23:24

This was a very cute game! Really liked the minigames (even though I didnt quite understand the sushi one at the time) As I said on stream; I recommend being able to place the pan, instead of teleporting it back after the player lets go of it.

Very nice entry!

haayaargh 2022-04-06 23:32

Thanks, now I hate sushi! :sushi:

I played your game on my stream today and found it cute and engaging. Quickly changing games I didn't have time to get good at kept me on my toes. I was just praying not sushi, not sushi. At some point theme went to the side for a while, but I didn't mind. Enjoyed the humour and sound effects together with unique visuals. Laster on I spotted Fresh Lady in the Art Gallery game. Cool find :)

Also I love how you made the game on itch.io page seamlessly merge with the store page background image. Overall great job and keep it Fresh! :rocket:

okamit 2022-04-07 00:13

@voxar Keep it FRESH and remember to rehydrate!

@jamieok Thank you so much!

@ocwal The rover game was so cute, I'm glad you went with that! :heart:

@kaminos Yeah, making this type of game with only educational minigames would actually be a great idea as well!

@yogurtthehorse Well, if we need to challenge these particular aliens for real, we are probably doomed no matter who gets to defend the earth!

@sequoiadolce Thank you so much! I'm really glad you liked it so much!

@pat-cleaver Thank you, that means a lot!

@mmisspelling Stay FRESH!

@gabriel-dias-oliveira-de-almeida @haayaargh Hopefully we can redeem the sushi minigame in the post-jam version!

@forgin-bits Yeah loved your game as well! Fun to see fellow "wario ware"-makers this jam!

Thank you all for the amazing feedback! Good luck during the ratings and have fun!

sasquatchbstudios 2022-04-07 00:46

just...wow! this was a freaking AMAZING entry! I found myself smiling at the end of it. Really creative and super impressive for a gamejam entry!

Felt really really polished. Couldn't figure out how to feed the guy sushi or how to hydrate the person, but this entry was amazing!

The audio really turned this from a game into an experience. Loved the into cutscene as well. Was funny, cute and fun. Well done!

mateu 2022-04-07 01:17

If a masterpiece of a game jam game exists, this is it. Almost everything is perfect. The games are all creative and unique, the theme is great, and the whole premise is spot on. Was there an ending? I couldn't tell. I just died.

Now, the most important thing: your audio. Holy crap this was fantastic. Seriously felt like I was watching a movie at times. This was fantastic, and I congratulate you for your game!

okamit 2022-04-07 01:21

@sasquatchbstudios Thank you so much, glad to year you like the music so much! For the sushi game, you need to take it steady, going to fast makes the unsteady hand drop the sushi! And for the hydrate minigame, you lift the bottle to make it drip water, and the person is just a tiiiny bit thirsty and is satisfied by three drops!

@mateu Wow thanks for the amaizing feedback! So glad to hear it :heart: We were going to have an ending but didn't make it in time, so for now it's endless. Stay tuned for the post-jam version!

fromage 2022-04-07 01:55

That music was really good! Minor grpahics gripe the flame looked like it was positioned wrong. Enjoyed the minigames too

darriasart 2022-04-07 02:12

a perfect game, great job

proxy-games 2022-04-07 04:55

Firstly, *very* nice touch with the page background perfectly blending in-I really liked that. Secondly, very nice entry! This is a good collection of WarioWare like minigames with a comedic story attached to it. I never played WarioWare games before, so this was a new experience for me-I quickly learned I sucked at them. The artstyle and music is also very charming and add to the games upbeat, comedic mood. Overall, good entry!

squidly 2022-04-07 06:03

This game looks DIFFICULT to pull off. So many minigames! And it was all so clever and fun to do (except Minesweeper, never was good at that...) Really amazing presentation, you all are incredibly talented and really I have nothing critical to say. Well done.

originaldog 2022-04-07 12:54

Really well polished entry! The amount of variety in the minigames was super impressive and the music and artwork were both excellent. Loved how the pitch increased with the pace of the minigames to increase the tension. Great work everyone!

stephenwhoskins 2022-04-07 14:50

You did the micro games format! Warioware ftw, lol. I gave this a perfect 5 across the board. The music was fantastic. Like the Star Trek music references, the mario music references, etc.

rickylee 2022-04-07 15:12

Warioware was already mentioned XD such a good idea, and with ramping up difficulty is perfect with the theme! great submission

oadt 2022-04-07 15:41

Already the intro blew my mind! You managed to build up and maintain throughout the whole game the vibe of these super early sci-fi movies while at the same time the game looks and sound super modern. I also love how the music slowly intensifies thoughout playing.

As a kid I often played a flash game that felt similar (minigames and intense music/animation between them) But your game just surpassed it in every single way! Visals and audio is way better and every minigame is better than the best I remember from the flash game (well except one minigame... :sushi: :eyes:)

Some thoughts on minigames: * :bomb: The undetermined fields could be a bit easier to spot, but cool game * :sushi: Hated it :joy: killed to many of my runs * :bank: Loved that you put the blackout music in there * :four: Would have loved to see if the tasks would get absolutely ridiculous at some point, but :sushi: killed be first

My favorite game so far of this jam!

pixeltaku 2022-04-07 15:50

Freaking awesome game! Saw it first on Squidly's stream and I had to try it out! It's so impressive what y'all managed to accomplish! Really could use high scores, though, but that's barely a complaint! I look forward to the stuff you make in the future!

marcmagus 2022-04-07 16:19

Thanks for bringing your game by my stream for feedback! If you’d like to revisit the play and commentary you can view the highlight at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1448039280

Silly fun, excellent polish. I particularly love the intersection of the musical sting and TV popup animation with really excellent timing introducing each minigame. Just exactly right.

"That's not how safes work" - a couple of the minigames I had a little trouble figuring out what I was being asked to do.

"Put it in the square hole" - everything should go in the square hole as an easter egg

I enjoyed the nod to Scrambl'd.

kemsou 2022-04-07 17:12

Amazing art, the music is catchy, the minigamaes are fun (but I really couldn't eat the sushi or sweep the mine ^^')

Nice hommaage to wario ware and very good execution. Great job, I don't think this could have been done any better :thumbsup:

jlv 2022-04-07 18:14

Awesome game! The level of polish is spectacular, as well as the variety of games. The art is top notch, and the audio at the start was also really impressive. Looking forward to your next games!

Strengths: - Top notch visuals and audio - Incredibly polished mini-games - Good balance ; I felt like I was given the opportunity to enjoy your game without struggling too much, and the time allocated to the games was short enough to keep me on the edge of my seat.

Possible improvements: - The text boxes at the start are a tad slow

Fantastic entry!

raphiell 2022-04-07 19:52

The mini-games were a lot of fun and well designed. Art and music were amazing as well. My one complaint was that clicking didn't make the text at the beginning move faster and the slow speed was a bit frustrating.

kepsert 2022-04-07 20:15

F R E S H

lcrabbit 2022-04-07 20:44

I simply LOVED the game and how it progresses getting faster and the sounds giving this sense of urgency as well. The art is beautiful, it is so polished and it seems so complete. The only thing I really missed was some kind of score :)

rawb 2022-04-07 21:19

This game is great. I love Wario-Ware and this really hit that mark. I enjoyed Blackout in the last Jam and it was nice to see something completely different from the same group. Nice job cant wait to see what you come up with next Jam

davide-rossetto 2022-04-07 21:26

That's a neat game!

I love the minigame games (are they called this way? :thinking:) and this is a very good example! Keep up the good work! :v:

daniel-username 2022-04-07 22:53

Really polished game! You really nailed the warioware aesthetic and vibe.

mrpouletbzh 2022-04-07 23:02

That was a very nice collection of mini games! I'm absolutely terrible at it, but I did have fun playing it, and the humor and art direction made their effect on me. Good job from all of you!

stefan-laimer 2022-04-07 23:46

Absolutely hilarious game with amazing graphics. Great job!

eoshadows 2022-04-08 00:51

Awesome game! The graphics are really nice, as well as the music and sound effects! The minigames were really fun too, and the humor of the intro as well as the short musical number in-between minigames really does give that WarioWare vibe! Overall, I really liked this. I have no complaints! Well done!

Oh, and as I believe I've seen others mention, I really like how the background of the web game blends in with the page. It made the game page feel really nice!

jzucc12 2022-04-08 01:38

If someone showed me this and told me it was part of a Wario Ware game, I would have fully believed them. Unbelievable job in the 72 hours. You all should be very proud of what you made here!

leyamez 2022-04-08 04:48

Another AWESOME game from yous!! Was so much fun to play :) As other comments said it felt very wario ware and I really enjoyed it! GGs!

2022-04-08 06:14

I love Wario ware, and your team emulated the best parts of it, the funny/goofy variations in the art style and the sometimes weird conditions you have to meet.

ksimaster 2022-04-08 07:44

Aliens, riddles and saving the Earth! :) I liked it! Very interesting! I wanted to take this game on a trip or play with my friends :)

ardorugus 2022-04-08 10:20

A+ for sure. There's a whole narrative cosmic opera/drama in this. Highly exciting!

nash 2022-04-08 11:30

Audiovisual presentation, superb. Some of the minigames felt a bit too short and simplistic for my taste. But this did not ruin the overall feeling. The game is great!

shizuka 2022-04-08 17:25

awesome game, loved the presentation and the wario ware gameplay

mathglo 2022-04-08 17:59

Really good game! Love how the level changes when you are for a long time in the game! Great entry!

made3 2022-04-08 20:23

Did not understand the safe, but other than that really great! I especially love the music and art. And props for making so many small games in one game, it is a hard task

phillip-scott 2022-04-08 21:09

The minesweeper game gets really stressful! Audio was great but a little loud for me - I had a blast with this great job!

jcg 2022-04-08 21:37

I love the little attention to details. Seeing your WebGL build embedded into itch.io with the same background really says it all.

I felt a little stupid with the safe, so it's good I'm no locksmith.

zliebowitz 2022-04-08 21:40

It plays very well. After losing a few times, I seemed to figure out most of the controls (I'm to qutie how warioware which seems to be the comparison does in this respect). Probably some sort of hint hat the mouse is gigot to be sued for everything would be helpful.

flogames 2022-04-08 22:15

Great presentation, very polished! Charming graphics, dramatic music, well done! Heh, the setup reminds me of the first Halloween episode of The Simpsons. The mini games are simple fun and not too hard to figure out. The aliens could use some alien gibberish audio voice, just a suggestion. Oh and one thing that bothered me: isn't the fire supposed to come out of the hole of the rocket, not from the "wing"? Anyway, good job!

osh-studio 2022-04-09 03:51

Super fun game, the cinematic intro was 10/10. Fast paced mini games are always fun and these were well executed. Great submission.

aleksskogkatt 2022-04-09 08:59

Solid entry overall, I liked the game! There were couple of confusing things like sushi hand collider, but aside those the game is a cake! Good job!

elysiagriffin 2022-04-09 11:32

Thanks for submitting your game for me to play on my stream!

If you’d like to rewatch the playthrough, you can find it here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1450143040?t=0h30m50s

Good luck on your ratings, see you next LD! :D

alks 2022-04-09 13:43

Good game! Theme and mood is really nice and the art looks cool! Minigames are always great!

enderswype 2022-04-09 15:49

sheesh, almost a perfect game if you ask me!!

simba 2022-04-09 16:39

Absolutely fantastic Warioware style game! Pretty much everything here was executed well, but I want to call out just how good the audio design on this game felt. The background music during the cutscenes, the mini-game fanfare, all of it just sounded sooo good. Great game and congrats!

skleembof 2022-04-09 19:40

Phenomenal. This game might have the greatest audio production of any jam game ever made. The gameplay was very tight and polished and it felt like I was playing an actual Wario Ware game. My only criticism is that the pacing was pretty slow. I think the difficulty should have ramped up quicker (like a Wario Ware game), but that's a minor nitpick.

(Also, the Bo- doesn't put people on trial, come on that's Q)

thebooksnail 2022-04-09 20:57

SUSHI!!!! I couldn't figure out the sushi and never passed the combo lock =( But I still loved the game. Music is killer. The restart was perfect to keep the fun going.

yusovv 2022-04-09 21:12

Excellent page design, which is directly related to the game. You have expanded the gaming space to the maximum! I especially want to highlight the number of game mechanics, it's cool! And they are all of varying difficulty.

Great project, you guys are great!

wolderado 2022-04-09 21:31

This game is great! Graphics & Audio are top notch. I love warioware type games and you guys nailed it. Even though I used mouse pad to play it, it was quite fun!

Btw combining itch page background with the game's background was a nice touch

kregames 2022-04-09 21:58

Pretty fun game to play with. I could not figure out the best way in the sushi part! Awesome work!

emulization 2022-04-10 00:24

what a fun

guoboism 2022-04-10 02:51

Great game! I like Wario, thanks for your work!

shortcreative 2022-04-10 04:08

Phew, okay. The graphics, audio, framing device, and overall polish were all amazing. The minigames themselves? Lackluster. There were no controls explained for any of them. And they just weren't that fun to play. I think maybe revamping and/or replacing some of the minigames would elevate the fun factor!

milq 2022-04-10 05:02

After Blackout comes this wonder from Fresh Games who are back at the top of this Ludum Dare! Impressive how a team organizes itself so well and in 72 hours they release a game that, being a little longer, would be among the best rated on Steam. Great game, congratulations to the whole team!

mavvy 2022-04-10 05:42

Super polished Wario-Ware style game! I loved the premise, the visuals and I found the microgames pretty intuitive and decently varied. Great stuff!

agrimes 2022-04-10 08:34

Love it, microgames are great.

debone 2022-04-10 09:19

Thanks for making me fail in first grade mathematics, 5/7 would play it again.

baker 2022-04-10 09:52

uniq game, i love it<3

The Assessment was a blast to play! @starerik did a wonderful job on both music and sound while @okamit's art was just wonderful and silly. @frasse's programming made this a real joy to play too. It all fits together so well! If I were to think of ways to improve the game even more, I'd say definitely add more minigames. There's good diversity right now but I'd love to see more. Maybe there should also be more minigame-related sfx. That's all I have to say on that though. Excellent game! Thanks for sharing this on my stream!

FRESH minigame compilation! Really liked the art and sound design! Also the nod to Scrambl'd was a welcome surprise :D

pureimprov 2022-04-10 19:29

Wow 8 games! I had a similar format but only managed to pull off 2 (:

tanis 2022-04-10 19:53

Some of those minigames are just hilarious! Very good graphics and the sound/music is just awesome! Very well done. And you also managed to squeeze in a lot of minigames. Nice one!

Great art. Great audio. Great game! Really fun minigames. I really liked how the minigames got more complex or harder. Great job to the team!

Great game, really complete package and fun homage to wario wares and impressive it was done for the jam. The art and audio really work together with the games to have a variety but cohesive group of minigames.

Only some slight improvements since it's already overall a great job:

◾ Intro is a bit slow because of the text speed.

◾ Minesweeper minigame visibility on the interactable goals can be more pronounced, had a bit of trouble on this minigame the first few times.

◾ The sushi minigame was unclear at the fail condition with the feedback. All I figured out after a few failures is to just keep it steady but unsure if that was more focused on the speed or movement of the hand.

It is quite a challenge to do a Wario Ware like during a game jam ! Congrats ! The game is however a bit too slow.

this was a lot of fun, but i wasn't able to save the world after many tries : (

for being on theme, i guess it's impossible to save the earth, the games just keep on coming?

and while i get that forcing humans to play warriowares for no good reason is the point, i think the premise of "being ungrateful" and "horrible sins" feels like its trying too hard to come up with a reason. i think it would be more believable if the aliens were more upfront about it, like "hello lowly humans, we're bored so we're gonna force you to play these games or we'll destroy your planet."

wonderful job with the art, animation, and sound effects! i love the old school orchestral sci-fi feel! really impressive polish!

feedbacks: * intro text should be 2x as fast, or have a button to skip individual dialogues instead of the whole thing. * i was never able to pass the safe. it's clockwise, counterclockwise past and then to, then clockwise again right? i found it incredibly difficult to move to the right number (playing in a track pad). most frustrated by this one. * minesweeper - difficult to see where to click, and difficult over all! * difficulty scaling on the egg scramble is rough, after the first one, i had eggs already falling as soon as the game began, and spawning so far apart it feels impossible to catch them both.

Great game! Enjoyed all the minigames and loved the opening cutscene (but like others have mentioned, the text can be slightly faster)

notexplosive 2022-04-12 15:14

A reFRESHing submission!

tomssuli 2022-04-12 19:53

Mood, presentation and humor was great. Gameplay worked allright but was not my piece of cake.

Quality game anyway! Solid, didn't find bugs, easy to learn, polished.

team-choo-choo 2022-04-12 21:27

One of the best games on LD50 :) I loved the intro. Super funny ideas for the minigames! Really good art style and music, sounds like from some serious Sci-Fi cinema:) I had a lot of fun! Excellent job!

bruhohoho 2022-04-13 02:19

I absolutely love this game! You got the humor, graphics, music, and sound effects working together to create an awesome vibe.

amastryukov 2022-04-13 12:18

Well made! I'm a sucker for minigame-based entries, and this one is high quality. The soundtrack was on point, it felt like a movie. Theme was on point as well. All around, the experience was really well-rounded and fit the theme more than most entries I've tried.

liquidfunk 2022-04-13 18:36

10/10 best game best game

amerigo-gazaway 2022-04-13 19:00

Great work! Amazing amount of polish and the art and music were spot on. Love the concept as well, hilarious use of theme!

amberfall92 2022-04-14 02:20

Impressive variety with extreme polish. Maybe I just didn't get far enough, but I feel like there could have been fewer minigames with a bit more time spent in each one. They feel so short.

sn4pi 2022-04-16 00:34

Oh man, this game totally reminded me of "Dumb ways to die" and I loved playing it! The difficulty is also really balanced. Good job!

mateusboga 2022-04-16 19:10

I love this, knowcking it out of the park once again ^^ I just wish I understood the minesweeper one, it still makes no sense to me lol Great job!

pizzasgood 2022-04-18 00:00

This was pretty fun. Aside from all the stuff everybody already said, I also like how the hearts drift and bob a bit. Nice attention to detail.

coleslaughter 2022-04-18 04:57

Love love love how your itch page's background blends in to the space background in your game :heart:

As for the game itself, while the idea is pretty much Wario Ware (even down to the general tone and art style of the games), you guys executed this exceptionally well! It's clear that y'all know what you're doing when it comes to making games, and you know how to scope well enough to add that extra bit of polish that really makes an entry stand out. :slight_smile: Nice job!

ricardopino 2022-04-19 03:19

i really like the puzzles games, greay job guys.!!!!

schwede 2022-04-20 10:34

Great music again! Like in the Ludum Dare 48 Blackout, you have created a masterpiece. And your intro is one of the best I have seen during a game jam. It’s pretty impressive how you integrated all those mini games. I don’t have really much space for improvements here. :)

Well done!

ismael-rodriguez 2022-04-21 03:08

Very fun Wario-ware-Like. Music was great! Crazy being able to make so many games within a game while the rest of us struggle to make 1 lol :smile: Great job yall!

alaah 2022-04-21 19:35

Nice game reminiscent of dumb ways to die. Minesweeper is relatively too hardcore and sushi difficult to understand. Great work overall, especially on sound design

okamit 2022-04-21 19:38

@alaah Might be in a future game, or maybe in an added postjam minigame! We also have the final-final version of Blackout realeasing soon-ish!

logflames 2022-04-21 19:49

Awesome game! I really liked how the music was tied into everything that was happening (mini-games starting and higher pitch when the rocket was closer?). Some games were definitely easier than others, but I think that is part of the game, where you get 'unlucky', but sometimes manage it. Sometimes I didn't understand the mini-games on the first try, but after one time you know them and could play again Also smooth and polished animations and transitions
