Nice game with a nice mood !

snesgaard 2022-04-04 20:35

Very cute!

Nice game, graphics were very cute and the music very fitting, just felt that the movement felt too heavy.

sarahcatseye 2022-04-05 01:39

really cute game! loved the unique approach to the theme

kazuonomura 2022-04-05 02:17

Cute scenerio and sprites!

dae-udain 2022-04-05 04:06

Was a fun and simple game. The movement was a bit on the floaty side for my taste, but I was very impressed with the artwork. My bears seemed to really like green shirts and moustaches :)

LOVED THIS GAME!! It was really fun and calming honestly, and I adored the opening scene!! It's definitely something I'd play more than once, congrats to the team !!

lumous 2022-04-05 07:34

Thank you all!

Yes the Unity RNG was questionable! I probably should have switched it to the C# standard one :)

Had fun playing the game! The graphics are cute, the audio really goes along with the graphics. Very nice one:)

Really cute game- Had a lot of fun with it! :D My main feedback is that it was a bit unclear where some of the table hitboxes were, and that the dash felt like it replenished too quickly. I felt I was able to comfortably spam the dash without feeling like I had to manage the resource. Taking advantage of that, it ended up feeling much more relaxing than expected (which is also satisfying in its own way, depending on what you're going for :P)!

I love how at the end, the machine explodes and fills the room with all the bears you made. It's a fun details that really makes the end screen more lively. The art is adorable, and the music is fun too! Great work!

Super cute game with some really nice audio and gameplay! Great entry and thanks for playing my game on stream :D

This game is so cute!! I love it so much! I really love how the lady wears the items you pick up, really cute detail. The bears are so cute too~! I didn't realise I could dash at first lol xD I would say the movement feels a bit like I'm skating on ice and the graphics looks a bit pixelated and small (I couldn't recognise some of the orders) but I really like the game^^

Cute! I love the little references like the Mario stuff. The intro cutscene was neat too. Some items were a little hard to see at times. It was also a little hard to notice how much time each completed bear gives, and maybe they could give a little more. Good choice of music and sounds.

tamagotchi 2022-04-06 13:49

Very cute, and a great cinematic introduction to the game! I had a lot of fun dashing around and picking up the right clothes!

lumous 2022-04-06 15:40

The M on the hat is for Mia =)

lumous 2022-04-06 15:41

Yes now that I played it a few more times, I think we could give more time back. We give 10 seconds for every 3 bears. It was meant to be rather short contained experience. :)

okamit 2022-04-06 16:47

Cute little game! Got me in a great mood, could be expanded into a fun little commercial game after the jam I think.

Good job!

yearningboo 2022-04-07 02:53

this game is so adorable! simple but it fits well the theme. the graphics are very cute and the gameplay itself is very relaxing. i can see myself casually playing this more times.

dingledorf 2022-04-07 07:43

Nice relaxing game, I enjoyed playing it. I encountered a bug where the sprite for the watch on the tag of a bear wasn't resized, but this was very minor. Other than that, a very clean and polished experience!

Oh, and I really liked the way the camera panned around at the start, that was a cool touch.

rickylee 2022-04-07 14:13

Such a great idea! so cute and the music is perfect :) this girl needs to find some urgency those trousers are too far away to be sauntering like nothing is about to explode :') Great Submission

gabriel-dias-oliveira-de-almeida 2022-04-07 17:50

I was really happy when I saw a animation intro!

The game is really cute, everything in the game is soooooo cute and so kawaii! Thank you so much for this game, it's amazing!

I had so much fun play it!

Loved the main character and all the bears <3

Nice game! I enjoyed a lot playing it! I feel like entering My Little Pony world. I think the colliders on the tables weren't working very well but that's understandable in a jam. I also think that the game could be more difficult because is easy to stay alive until the end. But I love the feeling of needing to hurry to get all the items that were separated at the shop to fulfill the order of the customers :P. The graphics are absolutely cute, fantastic! The end is just too cute lol. The only thing on the design is that when you get and drop an object and that object stays too close to other item is could be really confusing to pick the right one, but marking on purple the object to get is just perfect. Thank you for the fun game :)

lumous 2022-04-07 18:52

@biku yes! I agree the tables were challenging to get setup well and be easy to reach the items. Luckily the AI will always pick up a new item first before a dropped one, but thats a good idea! i should just drop it farther away from any pickup area. Ty for feedback and playing!

tricky-fat-cat 2022-04-08 08:14

A fine small game, the movement feels a little bit floaty, anyway it's a decent submission, well done.

praccen 2022-04-09 09:54

A cute little game! Really like the art. Especially liked that you got to see all the bears you created in the end! I played in the browser and having the game scale to the window would have been nice. The game froze and didn't close when I pressed quit after being done playing, but that's not a big deal! Overall, great job!

Finally an innovation to the dress up game genre! :D This was very cute!

Got a little hectic towards the end but I liked that. Has a good ramp up the difficulty. I wonder if it's even possible to get a run without letting a single bear slip through. The ending when all your bears come out is quite rewarding :)

shortcreative 2022-04-09 18:29

Very cool! 🐻 Super fun and cute concept. Biggest issue I had was game defaulted to way oversized in my browser window. I had to reduce to ~60% to see the whole gameplay area at once. The difficulty really ramped up - I felt the dash wasn't enough of a help to overcome the time pressure. It was perfect how the stands changed color to let you know you could pick up the item!

radmccool 2022-04-10 04:52

what a lovely wee game. the short intro video was a nice touch and i liked how the player character wore the items they were carrying. i dont really have anything to suggest improving on... just needs a bit of polish/juicing and its good to go! good job!

byazzle 2022-04-10 05:29

Cute game! The UI was good how it lit up the stand of the item you'd pick up, and really loved the extra little touches - like wearing the item, or the music coming from the headphones. Some of the art was mismatched, but still a solid entry!

hatmajaster 2022-04-10 08:13

Would be very cool to see this game with multiplayer mode. The other thing I can say is that the main character shouldn't be that pixelated if everything else is so smooth, but I know how it is in such short time. You probably put a lot of work in implementing all assets, so good job. Oh and one of the mechanics that allow You to go faster is dashing - how about going further with this and allowing player to just leave the screen on the right side and show on left side and vice versa? That would make moving even more interesting.

itsboats 2022-04-10 22:49

I made 22 bears but I love them all so much I'm going to shut down my business and keep them for myself. Sorry customers!

MiasBearService_22Bears.png (2 of them got pushed into the trigger at the bottom left that makes them disappear)

lumous 2022-04-11 01:30

@hatmajaster thats a great idea! I'll keep it in the list! Thanks for playing!

poontangular 2022-04-11 10:20

This was a nice break from the endless violence in the game jam. Nice job guys! haha

vidarn 2022-04-11 17:23

Lovely game. The graphics was colorful and fun, and the bears were very cute in their outfits. Good job finding a cool spin on the theme and making a game that's somehow both relaxing and intense at the same time :laughing:

The cutscene at the beginning of the game was a nice touch, and I loved the little details like the fact that Mia was wearing some of the hats and mustaches when you picked them up.

apandso 2022-04-14 11:42

Nice game! Cute and fun :) Didn't count my bears, wish there was a number at the end. Good job! Снимок экрана 2022-04-14 144136.png

ulisses 2022-04-15 01:01

wow this game is amazing. I really enjoyed, the controls are responsivechrome_pA8O75Ds6r.png and I just loved the art. A score would be a nice adiction. Well done!

angiemon 2022-04-15 13:17

A truly cute, adoreable game! :))

Loved the music haha, reminded me of old Disney cartons somehow

I also loved how when you picked up a moustache the player was wearing it as a moustache :D

I really like organizing games and the assets were adoreable and fun :) I just hate this jam's theme so every game ends frustratingly because you will lose T____T (Ours too, haha ^^)

What would have been cool is if you would have been able to dash, and have a little inventory to take, say 2 things (for example when you have to grab a watch far away and you already see two bears need that) so you get rewarded for planning ahead (and when you stock up on the wrong stuff you have to throw it on the floor and it gets confusing) dashing would have also been cool :) Or maybe a little speed buff immediately after finishing a bear, but I assume those things would have been a little too much for a jam considering it's so little time ^^

I enjoyed this, good job :)

alphish 2022-04-17 16:16

That's a nice sweet game, with some good degree of polish. I particularly liked how the bear's clothes and accessories appeared on the finished bear, and how bears had varying colour and head-tilt, giving an additional sense of uniqueness/variety.

I managed to reach the Fluff Core Meltdown without missing a bear or making a mistake, so I'll count that as a success. Took me a bit to discover the dash functionality (mostly when things got hectic and then I started wondering if I can speed up), but I found the control for it without a problem so it's actually good. One visual bug I noticed is that when a bear asks for a watch, the watch image is much bigger than other images on the price tag.

Nice and fluffy game overall, and I like how at the end there are the bears from before everywhere. ^^

lumous 2022-04-28 19:40

@angiemon We have a dash button :) The other ideas are pretty good!
