This is super impressive. Very high production value and a good amount of content for a jam game. Showing off what I assume are other player's art is a very cool feature.

It's surprising how much you managed to get done in a small timelapse, even though you had a decently-sized team. Good job on the game.

This game is an absolute masterpiece, all of the stickers made me laugh so hard and the style of the game was beautiful, especially the voice acting. All of you did an amazing job!

Wow cant believe the game was networked, that's awesome!

xry 2023-10-03 06:37

Overall very lovely game!! I love the idea of having to follow the restrictions of a commission and the canvas as the limiting parts to match the theme. And the feature to compare to other pieces of art is very satisfying too.

First i thought i had to draw the aliens and the man with the cigartte :rofl:

I really enyojed the game! Very fun art style and amazing voice acting

hangovergames 2023-10-03 06:40

awesome voice acting! I literally laughed with you during every drawing order!! Very nice

congeesetador 2023-10-03 06:42

This is another case of uniqueness on this jam theme, I really loved the art style and the sound effects, the sticker drawings were absolutely hilarious and were my favorite, I can tell you all worked on this game really hard and it was all worth it, spectacular game!

In this game, my creativity went beyond limits and the variable stickers made my paintings even more attractive. For more voice acting is perfect.

5 stars best game so far lol the audio was tooooo funny i loved it so much wish it was longer <3

crylica 2023-10-03 14:39

It took me awhile to realise that I was meant to use the stickers instead of drawing the objects, but this is a really interesting take on the theme. I love how you drew francine/the dog as well, when shes painting it looks super nice.

this is so hilarious and totally unsettling, i love it! my praises to voice actors – i got dedicated to my art pieces so much thanks to them Screenshot 2023-10-04 at 00.47.40.png

Fun and unique. It was a little hard to pick up at first, but that I think that was inevitable since it's such a different game. I like the voice acting of the clients and especially had a laugh as I was rushing to achieve the requirements of the (6th?) drawing and distinctly heard the client say "I want the canvas to be between 20-40% black and add in a dog. I feel this represents my relationship with my cat" XD

doommustard 2023-10-04 01:42

I don't know why but this gives me real jackbox party pack vibes

violet-dykhoff 2023-10-04 02:06

This is such a cool concept for a game! I'd totally play it with a bunch of friends if there were custom "compare art" servers!

whoaitstom 2023-10-04 03:37

The voice acting was so funny to have alongside the frantic masterpieces and seeing the other drawings as I went was super charming!

2023-10-04 04:02

Voice acting added to the charm of this game! Reminds me of Sticky Business but I kept giggling listening to the commissions!

rincs 2023-10-04 04:10

I had a lot of fun, will definitely play again to make better paintings LOL

mehul 2023-10-04 04:11

Love the graphics and the gallerys at the end of what people made is hilarious. Big jackbox party game vibe!

agentparsec 2023-10-04 05:23

I forgot to put in my name ^^;

meep 2023-10-04 14:32

Really unique game- and pretty relatable. :') Mostly just took the constraints literally and put together a minimum acceptable painting, but would be fun to go back and try and draw more creative stuff while still satisfying them. :D

morgie 2023-10-05 05:30

This game is so charming and unique. :D I really enjoyed the humor; clearly there was a lot of love put into it. I just there wish there was some visual or audio indicator that I had selected certain colors and I wish there was an option for bigger/smaller brush sizes, but those are very minor. The voiceovers made the game more fun than just silly drawings and made me want to wait til the clock ran out to submit! Thanks for making a super fun game!

agraffs 2023-10-05 07:14

Hilarious, the game resumes fairly well the briefs that some clients give for artistic work. Nice ^^

rickylee 2023-10-05 13:46

damm I love it 5/5 ^^ I was spending way too long putting colours down and only having 5 seconds to find stamps hehe

snekofspice 2023-10-06 12:15

online functionality in a gamejam game... absolutely wild

this was very funny and entertaining, I loved the voice acting and how silly and doodly everything was

the only thing I noticed was that the pen cut out fairly regularly when you move your mouse too quickly

anson-rutherford 2023-10-07 04:06

Really enjoyed all the stamps, and the online feature is really cool! It'd be nice if there was a way to browse the best submissions on a prompt or something along those lines, though I realize that's a headache. Had a fun time with this!

crow-seeds 2023-10-07 05:17

@anson-rutherford We ran out of time before we could implement it :(

Fortunately for you, that feature is in the post-jam version on Newgrounds!

picross 2023-10-09 02:46

Incredibly fun and polished game. Have no idea how you accomplished the online functionality. Huge jackbox vibes. Great work team!

euler-moises 2023-10-13 04:40

AHAHAHA!

I loved it! An extremely original idea!

You guys used the theme very cleverly and built the game in a very picturesque way.

Congratulations!

natano 2023-10-16 01:13

WOOOOOOOOOOW!!! As an artist, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS GAME!!!! It's amazing! I don't even have the words to describe how much i enjoyed it!!!! You did a really really great job!!! ^^

For sure a 5/5 stars >;)

nuin 2023-10-16 01:36

This is awesome, only complaint I have is that the requirements would sometimes lock up and not update even when they were visibly fulfilled

First 5/5 for me though :)

thyoi 2023-10-16 01:53

This game is fantastic! I like it very much! goodjob!

So glad you invested the time in voice acting, that's really what did it for me, hahahah. The whole campain was enjoyable, though because you *had* to rely on stickers for the majority of it, it left all the finished products looking about the same, which was a little disappointing. My favorite part was the free draw, though I only spent a little less than 4 minutes on it, making this masterpiece.

FreeDraw.png

Few things I would've liked: more colors to begin with, even just one or two more for the sake of free draw would've been nice, even if the story mode wasn't any different; changable brush sizes (though of course I don't know what you're using to draw the lines so that could've been hard); if it were possible to show more than four other submissions -- maybe even a submission viewer -- I would've like to see more free draw products without making a new one myself! :3

I enjoyed that, nice job all of you! See you next jam! :beers:

crow-seeds 2023-10-16 03:28

@sephowepho Thanks for the input! We made a submission viewer in the post-jam version (we narrowly ran out of time to implement it in the submission lmao) if you wanna see other people's silly contributions. Glad you enjoyed what we got though!

100th-coin 2023-10-16 19:18

Absolutely perfect. I love drawing games, and this one absolutely stands out! The ridiculous commissions, the voice acting trying to defend why they need these outlandish requirements... it's hilarious and I love it.

I recorded myself playing to provide maximum feedback. Cheers!
