I loved every aspect of it. (And I found your page!)
This is one of the best submissions I played in this LDJAM. Everything from the theme, mood, music, feel is right. Filling the jar is juicy.
Thanks for your submission, was of great inspiration!
Please make a beautiful page so everybody will give a shot :)
Wow!
This just looks amazing and the gameplay is top notch!

Gorgeous pixel art, pretty solid levels of polish, and the biggest SNIIIIIIIIIF. Really neat atmosphere and I like all the little aesthetic choices you made along the way. I want to know more about this freak and why he is this way. Great stuff!
Very entertaining game, with variety and a cool idea. I couldn't finish it, but I survived 5 brews!

This game is so charming, love the creature design so much! The premise is quite simple, but I think it is perfect for a game jam. The only thing that is missing is some ambient sound, not even music is required, maybe just some wind or anything really :) .
Overall pretty cool memory game. I like it. Especially the effects haha.
Dislaimer: BEWARE HEADPHONE USERS FOR INTENSE SNIFFING!!!!!!! HAHAHA

I beat it! Whew, that wasn’t easy! I definitely need to work on my memory. It’s a Simon-style game with a clever collecting theme. It really wasn’t easy, but the sense of satisfaction was huge. The art is excellent and the humor is absolutely hilarious, some of the best I’ve seen. It’s a great and very solid entry, all made by you! My sincere congratulations, great game!

Beautiful, reminds me of games I play on DOS a long time ago where you would mix colors to make potions. You are a cheeky b... on the last one, so i played again but I may have misclicked cause it said I made a mistake (sometimes the sound doesn't play...), So I tried the other end. The game is a bit too slow to replay a forth time time (you can't skip for faster play)
Great atmosphere, and super polished!
The graphic and VFX are wonderful. Really enjoyed mixing those materials! The sound of dialogue is a little loud and annoying though. Great job, super cute game!

Cool game, funny gameplay, great atmosphere!
Really cool game :D Love the multiple ways of finishing the game and the twist for the last order, really didn't expect that, good job :3
My only feedback would be to please pay more attention to audio mixing next time, I had to lower down my speakers to 2% volume while playing because the sniffing sound is just so insanely loud xD
Hope to see more from you on at the next jam :3
I love this. The mood is so good I really enjoyed it, it was weirdly scary while also being funny^^. Really good art aswell!
I think the sound could use some work, the text sound gets a little repetitive and the sniffing is VERY loud.
Thank you all who have played so far! I'm seeing a few comments on the sound of the sniffing being quite loud, so from now on the collector should be more considerate and will try his best not to sniff so loud. Hopefully this should fix the loud noises for anyone who plays after!

I found a bug in the game. If you present an empty jar, it always succeeds at the sniff test. I managed to cheese through the game that way!
@alexclay I just tried it for myself and it definitely does to that lol, I can't believe i never once tried that when testing it! Thanks for pointing it out, should be fixed in a couple minutes

I had a lot of fun playing this game, and I realized that I don't have the best memory. I found the Sniff sound and the visual hilarious. I do suggest lowering the audio a little bit since it can be a bit loud while wearing headphones.
Great game with lots and lots of polish! Love the mushroom ending you managed to put in there!

This game is pure perfection. I could get lost in it for hours on end. The mood, the visuals — everything just clicks. It’s an experience, not just a game.

The game is excellent and I am wondering that how do guys did the screen vibration? It's so perfect!

The polish and presentation of your game is incredible, and god I love that strange creature. I'm really impressed that you managed to make what is a relatively simple mechanic so fun with a mix of presentation, humour and variety.

The level of polish is really impressive. Very atmospheric and enjoyable!
Great concept! The visuals are amazing, and the sound design is excellent, though it’s missing a soundtrack. Overall, an outstanding experience!
Wow, that is beautiful! I love all the effects and details, like how the jar content changes visually. And the collector's design! Great level of polish and cohesiveness. I love the humor, especially the S N I F F . The gameplay mechanics' complexity was not your focus this time, but it wasn't an issue at all. I really enjoyed that there were multiple endings! (I have found 3, is that all of them?). The last request took me really off guard, great idea there ^^ Somehow I did it first try, really felt like I'm fighting for my life.
