Love the gameplay and style. One of the coolest games I have seen on this jam so far. But movement and controls are a bit unusual and odd. Anyway, was nice to play it.

I do like the movement especially. it takes a minute to get used to but by the end of the 5 min playtime you get into this nice rhythm to zoom around and pick up things.

Nice game! In my first playthrough i jumped in the water right away without selecting the character nor triggering the tutorial though. But overall i do like the take on the theme and gameplay, nice job!

Really interesting game! I love games with physics and interesting movement mechanics and honestly this game does both of those great. Moving the PeepCube™ was a bit confusing at first. I didn't realize you had to hit E on the little switch on the cable. I also spent a couple minutes figuring out you had to press E, not F, to put the item into the PeepCube™. After all that I realized the things basically got a health bar/timer that I had completely drained lol Really great game though, you've got a lot of moving parts here. Nice job!

Cool concept, I really liked the framing of it as a TV show. I was wondering if the blue bar is a hard time limit or if there was a way to increase it, always felt there was still a ton more to collect when time ran out.

Loved it very fun and felt very short in a good way. This is one of my favorite games for the LD so far.

This was really cute and fun. I love the premise and the little touches like the viewer commentary at the end. The game is relaxing but at the time you can compete for the leaderboards if you want to. Great job!

the game is really fun I enjoyed it a lot! Hope you have more further development!

Good fun - peepcube and the alien are super cute, and the music and art makes for a chill vibe! Becomes a bit hectic as the blue bar runs out, which is cool and theres some good strategy involved with going deeper with the peepcube to go for more valuable objects or picking up everything around it. Played a couple times to hit the leaderboard which was a fun touch as well :D. Took me the first play to figure out the winch though haha, would be nice to have a tooltip for that (hopefully I didn't miss it!)

Wow! What an original idea! The PeepCube™ mechanic is absolutely brilliant. The graphics are super polished, and the music ties everything together beautifully. And you did all of this solo in just 48 hours? That's seriously impressive. Sure, it takes a bit of time at first to get the hang of the mechanics, but once you do, it feels incredibly smooth and intuitive. I'd love to see PeepCube™ expanded with new levels and challenges, it has so much potential! I already have a bunch of ideas just thinking about it. Fantastic entry, great, great game!

Atmosphere is very impressive, so love it

I fell in love with this game! Such a satisfying and unique cube-moving mechanic. This could totally be expanded into a full-fledged game. And the alien TV concept was brilliant =)

Quite unique! The gameplay felt a bit tedious at times but the graphics, audio, and winch mechanics are all very impressive. I would have appreciated spending more time scavenging than dragging the cube around, but the latter took much longer and the items were very far apart.

Wow! cool mechanics

Cool game and looks great for a compo game. The underwater movement took a bit to get used to but other that I enjoyed it.

This game is so neat. I loved it. Felt a little slow, but it's so interesting. I wanted to put on a great show for the viewers. <3gotRank7.png

Managed to get 360 points on my second attempt! It's not much, but I blame it on the PeepCube getting stuck here: a.png Anyway, this was fun! The concept is awesome - I love the idea of a fake alien TV show obsessed with garbage. The game itself reminded me a lot of Lethal Company-style games but without the horror element, which was really nice since I'm not good with horror. In general, the game felt very relaxed despite the time limit thanks to the music & atmosphere, which worked out great. I also appreciate the little details such as the face changing when you put something in or the short end messages. I didn't really get what the red bar was about, and the map felt a bit too big & empty to me, but otherwise, great entry!
