It's a simple game, but it's catchy, the art it's very cool, the sound is great too, I love it!
Awesome Graphics, and very relaxing gameplay. It was a bit confusing when i started to play, but is easy to see what you have to do. I Like it a lot xD
It's a pretty cool game, it's hard on the beginning to known how to gain more power, but it's fun to play (i'm terrible at aiming the little spaceships xD)
I like so much the graphics, nad the audio too. It's not very intuitive, but it dosen't matter, because when you play, you can know what to do, i like it xD!
Nice job, it's simple, but super well made, and hard, i love it xD
It's a good concept, but not very well executed. Try to make third person, when you move your mouse, move your camera, the gameplay will be better, but i have a lot of fun playing xD
I love this type of game, and i love this game, very well made xD!!
I like the style of the game, and a little problem in the beginning is to now what is a villager and what is a monk, but when you die by a monk, you know how to identify them.
The commands are a bit slow, but the concept are great. Need more content xD
The concept of the game is really cool, but the problem is the limitation. If i don't have a web cam, i cannot play, and thats the case, i really want to play, but i can't, because of this limitation...
The concept, the graphics and the music are so great, but the game have minor bugs that frustated my gameplay, but anyway, it's a great game
It's a great game, the art it's not amazing, but it's cool. This game remember me games like metroid and castlevania, because of the exploration in a 2D World. Has a lot of potential!!
It's a fun game, one little problem is the audio too loud, and you can't change in game, but the game is very fun, the graphic was pretty cool, and the gameplay it's simple, but fun, i like it a lot xD
@graebor, @bocodillo, @benmcnelly, @mr-marcgenesis, @kakureta, @chris-coe, @sebastian-m, @will-walters, @don-fouts, @theflyingkeyboard, @svr-audio, @n-feofentov, @ezaudiolabs, @larrychupacabra, @machinetribe, @vladlen.
Thank you, thank you so much for playing and comment about our game. It means a lot to us that you guys like it. And a Special Thanks to @larrychupacabra, for making a video about it, it was so cool xD
It's a pretty cool game, the graphics are not so good, but the concept are amazing, i love it xD
I like this type of game, but it's pretty short, try to make more levels, or more difficult to get to the objective, it's gonna make the game a lot better xD. Nice work ^^
It's a nice idea, but the "button smash" makes the game not very funny, but it's still a great game
It's a very cool game, but one problem for me it's the music it's to loud (i play in the html5 version), and when you finish a level, the music of victory mix with the music of the game, and this it's kinda annoying, but it's a pretty good game, and it's very hard xD.
The Windows Download it's not working unfortunetly...
Wow, this game it's probably one of the best that i played. In the beginning it was a litte bit hard to understand and to find the things, but when you get the hang of it, it pretty fun to make the calls correctly, and search the names and countries. I can see a good future with this game!
@sandysang thanks for the feedback. We will fix this problem as soon as possible!
Thanks everybody for the feedbacks, we appreciate a lot <3
@littleblackdog Also, fun fact, the murderer has my photo edited on his face hahahaha
@matt-swieboda we put a "tutorial" on the Menu to help players to see what they can do. It's better to have the instructions in game haha
The only problem to me in the game is that i have a little hard time figuring out how some parts of the game works. I understand what you said about "we, players, figuring out as we go", but sometimes this can make the player not enjoy the game as he should. When i understand what each thing are, and how to do it, it became easier. The only thing that i didn't figure out was how to mix lettuce and tomato, before i could, the game crashed on me. I tried to click with the lettuce on the thing on the right of the blender, and it crashed.
Besides this point, i really liked your game, it reminds me a lot of other games like this, but the way you play is simpler, but it works pretty well. I think this game has potential to grow! Well Done!
It's pretty confusing at first, i think a little tutorial on how to make the things work it's the best. But i like this idea and the way it was executed!
I think i played more then i should hahaha I liked a lot the game, the mix between the coin game and a Roguelike, it's pretty awesome. I only have some minor things that i would change or fix. Like, for example, the coins that you gain for each cog that drops, it's ok at first that you gain only one, but i saw when i upgrade the cog, and bought the Ninja Star that it's still only 1 coin for each, so i would put in some future versions some way that you could Gain more coins for each cog. And there is a little bug, if you mute the music, and clear one night, the music starts again, and you have to mute again. But overall, i liked A LOT, really, and this screen shot is a proof haha.

Wow, such a dark topic, but with a clever puzzle mechanic, i liked a lot
I loved the art style! And it's nice to interact to each person and known them a little better. It's short, but it's really pleasing to play!
@twowolf thanks for the feedback, and about the rating, we were pretty tired, so we take one day to regain or energies, and now we are going to play a lot of games. I usually do this sooner, but i was tired hahaha
@tom-cumpsty thanks, because we didn't have a lot of time to make the story, we tried to make the player think about their choice and if they made the right choice, but maybe in the future we will make more ways so you can make the choices that matters and you will know if it was a right choice.
@weston-goggins Thanks! We planned to do more about the evidences, but the time was not our friend haha
@blue-pin-studio @blo yes, unfortunetly we didn't have time to add more interesting aspects of gameplay, we planned other cases too, but we didn't have a lot of time left. But thanks a lot for the feedback!
Interesting Tower Defense, and i liked that i coul move my towers after i placed them. It would be nice to make this in a bigger game with different towers or powers!
This game is such a fun experience. I know that is a game that you can make a lot with it if you guys want to make something bigger, because it's really fun. It's chaotic, and that's why i liked a lot.
I loved the art style. And the gameplay it's simple but it catchs you and i had to play until i took all planets. And to be honest, i wanted to be able to upgrade all the upgrades to max hahaha.
It's like a endless runner, but i liked the mechanic that the "road" becomes more crowded and harder to dodge. Nice work!
Wow, it's a pretty hard game. I didn't thought it woul be that hard, but it's a fun puzzle game, good job!

Cara, que jogo divertido e viciante. Gostei de mais de como ele foi construído, a dificuldade é muito boa e a mistura de você ter que se mover constantemente, gerar a fome, e ainda ter que jogar um Tetris ao mesmo tempo, ao mesmo tempo que é estressante, é divertido. Parabéns!
It's a mixture of farm games with games like forager. I liked a lot. It can gro to a bigger game easily, good job!
Man, what a fun little piece. I loved the art, the sound design, the gameplay and etc. It's incredible that you guys made ir in such short amount of time. Congrats, the game looks like something i would buy, so, please, continue the game!
Cara, que jogo gostosinho. Amo jogos em que você pode construir coisas, os números sobem e talz, e o fato de ser quase um Tetris, ajuda a pensar. Eu ia ter um comentário de "Poderia ter mais peças" até ver que eu estava jogando sem dar scroll nas peças, e tem MUITAS kkkkk. Bom ver BRs fazendo o Jam tb, parabéns pra vocês, ficou muito bom.
@hjalte thanks a lot! The music was made by us too, our sound designer tried to make songs in a 8 bit style, but yeah, it is a little annoying haha.
@duckwings thank you so much! we thought first in putting a jetpack, or something like that, but after some thought, the idea that you have a limited space to fly sounded better.
@aolriki Muito obrigado pelo feedback! A gente demorou MUITO pra decidir o que fazer, e acabamos até atrasando a produção, mas no fim conseguimos completar. Valeu mesmo!
@gorglomux Thanks for the feedback! There are some details in the character movement that we could change in the future, like the speed in the space block, for example. But thanks a lot again!
@golovco-adelina @sun0837 thanks a lot! Our artist work pretty hard on making the game look good, and we are glad that you liked!
@tavevil Thanks a lot! And thats a great point. We started the game a little too late, so we didn't have a lot of time to feel the mechanics, and, when we were making the levels, because we were used to the controls, we didn't feel a lot of this, so it's great to see some of this kind of feedback, thanks a lot again!
@azokal Thanks for the feedback! The blank zone is really hard to get used to, but we are glad that you liked the game overall!
@philocode Thanks man! As i said earlier, we didn't have much time to polish the movements, but we tryed to make the movement as good as possible, and, maybe, in the future, we can polish them. Thanks for the feedback!
@jozgames Obrigado pelo feedback cara! É bom ver BRs aqui no Game Jam tb!
@cosmogonicfrog Thanks man! And yeah haha, firs we though if we make the pipe kill the player, but then we opted to stay this way, so players can jump on them to pass through more easily
@wuppos Thanks for the feedback man! You did great! Thanks for the feedback on level design, this was the first time i focused 100% in game and level design, so it's good to see that i made a good job hahaha. About the camera, yeah, i think it would be better to make them a little far from the player, some levels, like the one with the platform that moves, if you could see them before, you could prepare to jump. And the acceleration it's something that we are hearing and we are thinking to change to something like, up and down acceleration having a limit, and this limit beign slower than the one right now, and making the left and right acceleration faster, so player can jump from one space to another easily too.
Again, thanks everyone for all the feedback, we are happy that you'll liked our game!
@camilleb I'm glad you liked it. One of the most common feedback are the mechanics, specially the movement inside the square, so we are taking note to work more on this in the future (in this game or in the games that we're gonna make in the future).
I'm marking everyone to be easier haha
@xeniarta @magnanix @tutti-ankka @pickydogfish @vhalenn @matthartley @eliyud @m0rph1y @okshirl @zubspace @hakro @diego-teran @svenerik @ategon @falestress @chybby @eggtillius @benisu @vidu @netarion @powerofsin @axlplosion @simonlarsen @constance @kasmilus
Thanks a lot for the kind words, for all the feedback and the critics.
We, as a team, are very happy that you'all enjoyed our game. We heard all the feedback, about the difficult, the controls, the song and etc., and we decided to make changes to the game, but we decided to progress with the game, and post in on Steam.
We are going to try to maintain the core, and upgrade the game to be bigger and better.
Again, we appreciate all the positive comments, all the love our small game received, we are very happy. s2
@milq thanks a lot for your feedback. I'm glad that you liked my level design haha, it was the first time i was 100% on game and level design.
@lincolnsalles Thanks man! Thanks for liking my level design, and thanks for the support. We are working right now on a "revamp" of the game. We're gonna try to make a bigger version, but not too big. We are trying to launch on december! Again, thanks for the feedback
@amunonra it's a little bit hard for everyone, so, don't worry haha. When i was testing, it took me a couple of trys to make the level doable, bot not very easy. About the lasers and the black box, we thought about other ways to control, but in this amount of time we took a safe route haha. Thanks for the feedback!
@notnasiul yeah, the levels are, like, one big challenge in a small room, so mid level checkpoint wouldn't be necessary at first, but in future versions that we're making, it would be a nice touch. Thanks for playing our game and thanks for the feedback!
@kepsert thanks A LOT for your feedback, i'm glad that you had fun playing our game. The Coyote Jump was a common complaint, so in the Steam Version we are already doing a lot of quality of life changes. I'm gald that you liked my level design, as i said earlier, it's my first try on this kind of field, although i studied and played a lot of games, so this made it a little bit easier haha. Thanks again!
@sparklingsushi thanks! and it's normal, some people are more used to hard 2D platformers, so i'm gald that you played it all!
@kuviman GG and thanks for playing our game!
@wendel-scardua é muito bom ver mais brasileiros participando! Fico feliz que gostou das mecânicas, e sobre a câmera, acaba que pelo tempo a gente nem mudou, mas era algo que a gente já tava discutindo. Sobre os jogos de NES, eu realmente acho muito daora quando os devs (como você) colocam essa limitação pra fazer um jogo ser possível de rodar num console antigo, com todas as dificuldades que os devs tinham na época. Vou com certeza dar uma olhada nos jogos que foram feitos pra Nintendinho e Game Boy. Eu gosto de dar uma olhada nos jogos com menos avaliações pra ver se acho uma jóia escondida, e também nos top avaliados pra ver o que eles fizeram, e me inspirar também. Muito obrigado pelo feedback, vou ir jogar o teu jogo também e, inclusive, vou seguir no twitter, porque achei incrível o fato de você criar jogos para Nintendinho.
@strangeryann Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, the weightless zone are a little bit tricky, we're making a new version, and we're gonna change this. It's hard to balance a game on 72 hours haha, but thanks again for the feedback!
@bloodbane Thanks! Yeah, the limited space is the space where you can fly. We tought about the character beign a creature that lost his powers, and he could only use in these limited spaces.
I loved the music. The gameplay was good too, and the progress was nice. I don't know if it was just for me, but the Laser upgrade, the effect was showing below the scenario. But, overall, it's a great game, good job!
It's simple, but it works pretty well.
The only thing that i don't know if it was just me, but almost everytime that i reroll a dice, and the AI reroll too, the AI would reroll to the exact same face that it was before. Maybe i don't have luck hahaha
But overall, it's a pretty fun game with potential, i liked a lot and would play with a friend if it had online (maybe in the futur? hahaha) Good Job!
I liked a lot. In the future you could add some elements of roguelikes, like upgrades and etc, so we can be stronger as we kill enemies. In overall, good work!
It's a fun game, the only thing that bothered me is that in higher levels, it's easy still. I think it would be better that the enemie spawn rate increases as you go up the levels. Overall, i liked the art, the music and the gameplay, good job!
I liked a lot! It's a mix of puzzle with resource management, that fits pretty well. The one thing that i would change is that sometimes i wanted to destroy some things, because of misplacement, BUT, i understand that the way the game works, it's to you think before placing any object, this is just me being picky haha. Well done!
I found some visual bugs and some problems with the colliders, but overall it's a pretty neat idea that maybe can be a bigger game in the future!
I liked the art and the gameplay, but it's a little bit difficult. In Overall, it's a pretty great game!
It's simple, but it works very well. I love this kind of building game that you need to think where to put your buildings and how they interact with each other. And you did it alone, that is really amazing, good job man!
Man, what a fun game. I started playing and then got addicted. I had to stop because i want to see more games, but, man, congrats, this game is something else haha. Good Job
It's a little confusing at first, but overall it's a pretty solid game. I loved the art too!
I liked a lot. The way you have to think of the blocks, while you dodge them, it's a simple but, at the same time, complex concept. Good Job!
It's a pretty addicting game! The graphics, sound design, enemy design, everything were pretty good. Congrats guys!
It's a simple but fun game. My only complaint is that the movement, like already said, is tedious, i think it would be better if you just hold the button and the character moved. But, overall is a great game, good job!
Man, congrats to you guys to make a multiplayer game on a Game Jam. It's simple, but ir works well. I'm impressed.
Pretty fun game, a nice concept and a well execution, congrats!
I like the premise, but i would change one thing. Like, when i'm putting the blocks, i wanted to put them on the level Bellow, or aim more precisely where to put it. But, overall, i like it. Good job guys!
It's simple, but it works pretty well. One thing that i don't know if it's the way it should work is, when i pick up a lot of boxes, and just press the x button, all boxes will be one box only, i don't know if its the stack mechanic, but overall, it's a great game!
Nice concept, pretty graphics, challengin puzzles. The only issue, to me, is that the music start to get repetitive fast, but, overall, great game, good job!
It's simple, but it works. I played more than i expected. The mechanic to "Upgrade" your speed, amount of items make you want to upgrade more and more haha. I liked a lot.
It's pretty nice game, my only complaint is that the collisors of the character and barrels seems a little big, so, sometimes i pushed the barrel only passing by. And it's a little bit hard, so, the time to make all the puzzles seems a little bit short. But overall, it's pretty great. The music getting faster, the menu hiding your view and you can't tell if the spikes are close, it's a pretty nice thing to make you fell anxious and make mistakes on the puzzles hahaha
What a fun puzzle game. It's fun, it's entertaining, it's challenging and etc. I liked a lot. Also, fun thing, my team thought various ideas, and one of them was something similar to this haha
Screenshot_1.png
It's a nice puzzle game, the only thing that bothered me a litte was that i couldn't see what squares were available without pick the item up, or knowing already the squares. But overall, i liked a lot!
