This is a lot of fun! The vine mechanic is especially clever, and it adds a cool element of strategy to the game. I do wish that your health reset after every level, though. I died a few times at the beginning of the levels because I couldn't reach a bottle in time. Other than that, great work!
This is one of the most engaging games I've tried so far. I'm hooked on trying to beat my score, and I think that element takes this game to the next level. Also, I'm a sucker for any game that prominently features the tictac so that's a double whammy. great work!
HIM.PNG Love the art and especially this good boy! Keep up the good work!
Great work! I especially love the character designs. The mechanic of fighting the monsters was a bit confusing for me, but I'm sure It'll improve as you work on it. Would love to try whatever improvements you have planned!
THE DIEGETIC CONTROLS. THE CRISP 3D ART. THE INNOVATIVE GAMEPLAY. This is hands down my favorite game I've tried so far. It's extremely engaging (and stressful), and the game looks great, too! I really like the minimal color palette, and I think it compliments the vibe of being alone in a space emergency, especially in conjunction with the lighting. I especially love the creativity and variety in the minigame tasks, and I think the wavelength one was my favorite. I also think that the rolling ball was really creative, though I do agree with some others that it could be tweaked to be easier. I don't know what else to say except amazing job! You nailed it.
Nice game! I really like the art and atmosphere. The air pocket mechanic is cool, but I only found it after reading the comments. great work overall!
Great game! the news overlay was a fun touch!
I love how all of the setup is a trojan horse for simon says. Also I'm a sucker for diegetic buttons, so this is a 10/10 for me. Also love the little details like the quit menu and the cardboard around your pictures. Great work!
I'm a sucker for UIs that are integrated into the gameplay itself, so I already knew I was going to love this game, but I didn't expect all of the other fun touches that made this game better! I especially love that you push your paperwork off your desk, in typical cat fashion. Great job!
This is a really cool idea. I agree with some of the other commenters that the RNG can work against you, but I think preparing for that by going for the items is part of the fun.
This is one of the most unique and clever ideas I've seen so far. I Wasn't entirely sure what to do but I figured out the basic idea pretty quickly. Publishing more detailed instructions might help? Overall, great work! Also, loved the goblins' talky sounds!
This reminds me of a single-player version of Among Us. It would be cool to have to balance the tasks with fighting the enemies to make the game more frantic. Cool game!
Really cool idea! I like the twist on escape room style games, and the clues were just the right level of challenging. Also I got a fun bug in webgl that made me really tall so that's a bonus.
This is a really cool idea! I love the pixel-y 3d look! Could definitely see myself coming back to speedrun!
Hey y'all!
Thanks for the kind words! I've done a lot of jams before as an artist, but I've never programmed a whole game by myself before, so some jank is to be expected. I want to work on a fix in the next few days to get the physics-based buttons to work the way they're supposed to, so stay tuned.
Wow! The environment and character design on this is gorgeous! I especially love the dude you play as and his adorable walk cycle! I could definitely see this being expanded on. Keep up the great work!
I'm super curious what the 18+ aspect of this game is. I played it through but I didn't notice anything. Was there something in the audio I missed? Also I love the duck's little flappy feet!
I absolutely love the paper cutout style! I would love to see more games that look like this. Also, the tasks were creative and super challenging! My best was 42 years.
I love the attention to detail in this game! The shoulder shrugs and creasing when you bend the neck far enough are really nice touches! Also love the expressions! And this game is really well balanced. It was challenging, but I kept coming back for more. keep it up!
My best time was 71.41 seconds! The best strategy I found was shoving all the icebergs into a corner to pin the ship there, but inevitably, it broke free anyway. Great work!
Hilarious! I think the egg guy is my favorite, but all the characters in this are great! Also loved the 'buy fruits' poster! great work!
Cool game! I'm a sucker for any game with diegetic buttons, so this one caught my eye right away. I had a lot of fun trying to figure everything out, and all the buttons and switches are super satisfying to play with. I definitely do wish that you had more time to figure things out before dying, but I totally get that balancing is hard in 48 hours. Keep up the good work!

I'm bad at this game, but it is a lot of fun! I love that I can share my scores!
Yeehaw indeed! I love the ragdoll physics! I think it would also be fun to add some targets to try to land on. I kept trying to dunk the guy into the pool!
This is a really cool toy, but I wish there was some kind of palette for placing the symbols so that I could experiment with them instead of just waiting for them to spawn in. I would love to place different symbol sequences for the ripples to hit and make chain reactions.
@jk5000 what about the gameplay wasn't working? This might be on me because I forgot to put the controls in the description. I'll fix that now (mouse around to aim, left click to fire)
@jk5000 there aren't any enemies. Aim for the red target. When you hit it, you'll get to keep going for another lap, and the ride gets faster each time you go around.
@william-corrin My high score is somewhere in the 40s I think! I got pretty good from testing so many times lol
@shadowbrain this is amazing!!! I didn't know you could get it going that fast! Also, definitely a good move fixing the camera movement, that probably makes it a lot easier.
This might just be the scariest game I've ever played. just... no words. seriously, where do I even begin? The atmosphere of the video and your performance are both insanely professional looking, and I legit can't even tell this was done in 48 hours. From the collaged together monsters to the execution of the VHS style, Everything here comes together perfectly to create the most clever, immersive experience I've ever seen in a jam game. Keep it up!
This is a really cool game! The movement and combat are snappy as hell and super satisfying, and the gameplay is addictive. I especially like that you can bounce the bullets into the carrot, because it forces you to think about your moves and be clever with how you deflect things. I could definitely see some challenging puzzles made with these basic mechanics.
I'm in this game and I don't like it.
Jokes aside, congrats on finishing Ludum Dare! Making games is haaaaaard, and this is a really cool idea. Keep at it!
