Very cool premise, very stressful experience and perfectly encapsulates the vibe of my childhood.

Very cool premise, very stressful experience and perfectly encapsulates the vibe of my childhood.
It's definetly funny but overall its very hard to keep your? my?... mom happy. It's cool for sure :D.
This game is a coming-of-age story for what it's like being a Midwestern iPad kid and I'm here for it
WTF is why the mom just microshitting in the toilet every time I look away
I got 107 in honse, yay I love honse
what a freaking team, 10 devs!! y'all did great and this was a blast
Hooooooooonse
Dood do do doo doo doot doot do do do doot
5-games-in-one with 9 first timer, awesomely ambitious!
Nice game, had a good laugh. Well done :grin:
The low-health sound, however, is pure evil. I... still... hear it...
Too good man - it's a 5 across the board
WE MAKING IT OUT OF THE HONSE WITH THIS ONEhonse.png
Epic dog sounds
The design is nice ! does not look like other games
For the gameplay, if I don't do my chores IRL, I will certainly not do them virtually :grin:
Loved that little tower defense
Man the dogs diet is insane, my dude is a professional pooper
Ahhhh man. is it even possible to win Honse? I did a good job with the chores, but as soon as I unlocked the castle upgrade 2, Honse was unsustainable. Anyway, this was fun! I recorded myself playing for extra feedback!

This game really reminds me of whenever I offered help at the house, but I was grinding TFT, so I kept returning to my PC, doing my turn and hoping it would last, then get back to helping, and repeat. Exact same vibes.
Really fun game by the way, great job!
While the movement felt janky, the gameplay pf having to balance between chores and epic gaming was a small fun bit.
The fact that you have 2 games in one really impressed me, also 10/10 i reached the bottom of the world :D
Game with true story) It makes me remember my childhood! Good gameplay, but my character often gets stuck in walls and corners)
I swear that music will come haunting me when I can't sleep it was so catchy xD It felt a bit clonky moving about and going about doing your chores, but I can look past it for the nostalgia it brings
Games within games...That was fun, and I like the style
I like the idea to have multiple layers of games in a single game. It definitely made me stressed, which given the context is a good thing!
Satisfying mini-games, really cool – you can tell there was a lot of effort put into the art too, congrats on the outcome. A tip for improvement would be the camera control.
Never ending dishes :ohno: just like real life :cry: My favorite part was that the audio let you know when you game was about to die, such important details are often left out in my games.
Really fun game, I love these kind of games with lots of minigames and funny art. I really liked the concept of having to rush back to your pc to make sure you didn't lose. Like you left your multiplayer game running :joy:
Great entry!
If you want to rewatch my playthrough, there is a vod available right here: https://youtu.be/VrinXzvnhho

I have no idea if this is a good or a bad score 😅
Also, why do I feel like I'll have nightmares about eternally washing dishes with a low-health alert blaring around me?
i couldnt even beat honse D':

Fun and funny! Fortunately for me but perhaps unfortunately for you in terms of seeing first-time reactions I'd already seen the game on stream so I kind of knew what to expect and ended up doing well enough on my first time that I was able to play for about 10 minutes and get 51 points 😅
The graphics are nice and it's fun to see the game within a game and even the stuff on the TV. I'm sure you're well aware of the jank (like the boy sometimes ending up in a weird position on the chair and the mum aligning with the angle of the stairs) but I don't even know if it's a negative for such a humour-based game! Falling out of the house I'd say is actually bad tho, but luckily it didn't happen to me. The controls are wonky but workable. I mainly just turned with the mouse and pressed forward at all times, or sometimes backward if that was faster!
I don't know what to think about the fact that the stuff on the plates and the stuff in the toilet both look the same but I'll settle on mum throwing excess leftovers in the bowl because the sink is full......
Audio is fun. I like hearing the dog! It's so neat that the soundtrack is actually coming from the computer and how that helps you know when to run back when you get the danger beeps.
The poster on the wall to explain the game on the PC is also such a neat "diegetic" thing, if that's the right word.
I'm assuming there's no actual win condition and the goal is just to get the highest score, which is very fitting for a game featuring an arcade-style game inside. Liked this one a lot :)
my mom walks up stairs like that as well
