Did you build this in 4.2 or earlier by any chance? I think they fixed web errors in 4.3
@shaolin-dave Oh, that's odd. I'll have to try and look into it, I built the game in 4.3 stable and it works fine on my browser. Does the itch.io page have the same issue?
Such a great job on the art! Looks fantastic!
@lightningst Thank you!
I'm definitely not the best at taking care of this creatures, but it was fun, I loved the pixelart style!
@kenjimarcio Lol, thank you! Yea the creatures might be a little TOO needy, haha. All that matters is you tried your best.
Great mood, loved the pixel aesthetic and the creatures' angry forms >:D
Great job! I had a lot of fun playing this. Took a while to figure out what was going on but that was half the fun. Good pacing building up to the frenetic end. Very nice art and the sound works well with the gameplay. I love when the critters turn into monsters. Very polished and on theme entry. Perfect for what it is. Well done!
@flipsy Thanks!! Yea, making your game understandable in a jam like this is definitely difficult and I banked on players figuring some of it out on their own, glad it hit for you!
Confusing at the start but that's part of the fun. Like the art and sound. Seems like the difficulty ramps up a lot at the end.
Lol losing is the best; love the monsters. A bit hard to figure out exactly what's going on. Overall though, nice job!
Fun game idea, I like the pixel art and you caught the atmosphere of a 3am kitchen mood. It feels like a Tamagotchi game with angry monster consequences. Nice work, fun to play!
Very cute and challenging game! I was a little confused at first as to what i was supposed to do but once i figured it out i had a fun time playing!!
Screenshot 2024-10-07 224124.png Super fun! It took a bit to figure out what everyone was asking for, but I got the hang of it. The art, music, and gameplay are top notch; great job!
Great job with the pixel art, the overall vibe and aesthetic is really cohesive, once you get the hang of it. I like that there's a little bit of mystery to learn what to do.
Great game! I had some trouble figuring out what to do at first but it felt really satisfying to take care of them once I figured it out. The difficulty curve is fun, towards the end I was having to figure out how to get more than one objective taken care of on each of my trips back and forth to the kitchen and past the light switch. The graphics are also extremely cute. Good job! :)
Lots to catch up with, but thank you to everyone!!
Not sure how to play! I interacted with everything but didn't know how to start the level or do the recipes :(
@blue-pin-studio The light switch should start the level! For recipes, you just interact with the blue machine on the left, then pink or green depending on which creature wants the food.
This game had really good visuals and just the right amount of difficulty! On my first try, I died with only 5 seconds left. But I took some other tries and eventually made it through the day!
I had a little difficulty figuring out the food as well. But thanks to Nikku explaining it more, I got it. Nice polish, beginning and end. Decent time management game, legit scare when the creature turned into a monster lol.
@plasmapuffs Thank you! For post jam, my highest priority is definitely fixing up clarity on the food machines as the original intention got muddied a bit in the jam rush. Glad you liked it and congrats on finishing it!
Sorry, I gotta give solid 5 for this, one of a few solid games created for this gamejam!
It gives me curiosity, exploration and confusion. Initially I thought it was just like feeding tamagotchi game, boy I was wrong. I got jumpscared!! Definitely going to comeback and play this.
Really amazing mood and art, and sound too! but I really wasn't sure how to proceed.
@hakimallazi Thank you! @coltonphillips Thanks!! I've explained a bit of the more confusing aspects in a previous comment if that helps.
Really fun game!!! Took me a bit to understand but I got it. Love the art and it's an unique concept. Really solid game.
Cute! One thing I really, really like is the way you start the game by turning the light switch on - that's a really nice diagetic way to let the player adjust to the controls/mechanics before the game begins :) I did find the instructions a little confusing at first (as well as figuring out which status effects required which treatments), but I had fun once I got the hang of it. Cool game :D
The game has a fun and engaging progression, with charming pixel art and great sound design that complements the gameplay perfectly!
The difficulty of the game progressed really well, and the graphics and music create a nice aesthetic to the game. Loved it!
Love how things get more and more chaotic over time - I certainly struggled with juggling all of the different tasks! The animations are also great, and it was quite the surprise when I failed to provide aid to one of my creatures for the first time... Nice work!
