Really nice writing considering its such a minimalist game. Maximum impact with minimum scope - love it!

mgear 2025-04-07 16:42

I have no idea what i should put there : D

Seems like it's working for other people, but the web version gets stuck loading at 100% for me, can somebody ping me if they have the same problem and figure out how to fix it? This seems like a fun game and I'd like to play it

@sicosiber sorry about that, just fixed it! it was a data caching issue lol first time participating so figuring things out :) ty for checking out!

Nice and simple concept good job ! :D

I can't say I managed to follow the logic on the puzzles, passed the first one with just brute force.

I like the concept of a word puzzle game - I just had a hard time figuring out the connection between the clues lol

I wasn't too sure what to feed him and wound up just brute forcing. Mood was overall well executed - in particular the ambience / sound effects! Idea of a bucket holding you hostage was super random, yet in my opinion it wound up working incredibly well - random ideas are always the best ones.

Nice mechanic, good atmosphere, very polished overall. But to be honest i dont really understand the logic of the puzzles ^_^ But I won and I am glad!

MMMMH DIET COKE. But yeah I don't know how to solve these except trial and error, but it's enough to just do trial and error for some reason, it's very entertaining lol gj.

the audio carried this game. well done on sound design.

Not sure how to solve the puzzles luckily there is a thing called brute force, very fun but I'm confused with the puzzles and great audio!

jddoesdev 2025-04-09 00:13

This was extremely confusing and I still don't know what I did or didn't do. Looks and plays alright though, whatever it's supposed to be.

Also a brute forcer, but enjoyed the absurdity of the bucket and figuring out I can brute force "better" by rapidly putting more stuff in after a "wrong" answer. (Ending was a "little" confusing. Without spoiling, wasn't sure what the bucket was referencing).

After two confused playthroughs and looking up what “I’m Going On a Picnic” was, I think I understood the concept (the first rule was about the last letter, right?) - but since there's not that much objects to choose from it's easier to brute force than think about it. An example of a puzzle + solution would have helped. Nice sound design and mood!

monogatari 2025-04-09 20:57

The audio is really good, i like the idea of a word puzzle game but i'm not sure i understood everything, it was hard for me to get it, i just bruteforce the first level. But hey i'm just bad at these hahaha, well done for this game !

trocentraisin 2025-04-09 21:54

Bruteforced the first two rounds, understood the concept and rules for the last two, went back to understand the rule of the first round, still no idea for the second one. Very simple and efficient

isaac-hisey 2025-04-10 00:34

I tried so hard but in the end the bucket won XD

jazzydingo 2025-04-10 01:12

@reuh thanks for the feedback! and for anyone that didnt get it lol (sorry :)) the first is about the last letter, the second is about a missing letter/sound, the third is containing a letter, and last is the repeated letter.

alex-servirog 2025-04-10 02:42

I didn't get it and bruteforced it =) I wander if objects are put on the second screen to dissuade me from brutforcing

blue-pin-studio 2025-04-10 06:51

Wasn't sure what to do :P Seems interesting tho!
