Reaally interesting game you got here! I was surprised at the sheer amounts of systems in play here, and also the fact that each play is very different with incredible replayability! The game is very polished! And I got to specially mention the music cause damn that was some good ost!
Keep up the amazing work!
Wow! nice bullet hell! The art and color palette is really really nice! I felt the bullets were balanced at perfect speed where it was challenging and at the same time not unfair! Nice work!
Very nice clicker, with some in-depth progression and mechanics! The soundtrack is fire as well! The only suggestion I have is in regards to the font, sometimes it was pretty small and difficult to read but thats about it! Did not come across any bugs and it worked like a charm! Great work!
Nice entry! I love the visual theme and the art style alot! Very captivating!
The only thing I felt was for the movement of the player to be a bit more smoother. I personally felt the character takes a bit of time to react to the clicks!
Wow! Such a beautiful entry! I really really loved the writing of the game! Kudos to you and damn the music was fantastic! Really great message, such a short, sweet message which a lot of us do need to be reminded of once in a while!
Beautiful and thank you for the reminder!
Really, Really fun game! I got upto 26! Highly polished and clean! I love your control tutorial where you have to press WASD to start the game! that was super cool! Also the ball sound effect was really satisfying especially on the corner hits! The enemy seems to work really well and track your position nicely! Really goes well with the theme of delaying the inevitable ball in the hole situation! I had a blast playing the game! Keep up the great work!
This game captures a very unique mood very well! I loved the art-style and the soothing soundtrack! The artstyle gave me salad fingers vibes, very eerily captivating!
A damn good compo entry! The movements and animations were fluid! Good tutorial which guides you pretty well! The enemy and environment models were really cool!
I am not sure if it just happened on my side, but when I click escape while in game, even though the menu pops up, I am unable to use the mouse to choose anything and had to force close a game - I would highly recommend getting this one checked!
(Also adding a jump mechanic would have made the movement feel a lot more fun :3 maybe this one is just me cause I wanted to spam space bar and jump across the long corridors :P )
I also really enjoyed the SFX! would have loved a small background score as well!
Well done! Keep up the amazing work!
That was pretty cool! I loved drawing different things and watch them come to life with the cute animation!
Initially I thought it was a cute drawing game, but then soon I realized. I love the very odd and dystopian mood you have created with the characters and descriptions made me view the game in a different light!
Also damn that tutorial was very creepy (in a good way ofc) :3
Keep up the amazing work!
I loved the pixel art! Also very soothing color palette for the whole game! sooo good! The animations and controls were very smooth.
One suggestion would be, I would really like a reset button on this game, cause in some of the longer levels, when I knew I had messed up the optimum order to complete the level, I had to wait until the whole timer ran out before getting to retry where as if a retry button was present that would let me go pass that unnecessary waiting time!
Keep up the amazing work!
Hey, very cute artstyle!
I tried playing the game in the WEBGL version from itch.But sadly, I couldn't get the game properly working on Firefox. Even after typing in the correct work, it was counted as a miss.
Another thing was, once the game ended, I tried clicking on going back to main menu and starting the game again, but it was not spawning any packages upon retrying and I had to refresh the screen everytime after loosing! I am not sure if its firefox issue or something else.........
UPDATE: TRIED WITH CHROME AND IT WORKED AS INTENDED, all the problems mentioned above was no longer present!
Fun game! I love the cute cute pixel art! And like a couple of other people mentioned, I do agree the starting wait time feels a bit long as you are almost sitting for 10 seconds without having anything to do initially, but once the boxes start coming in, it is absolutely fun!
What an incredible clean game! I love the artstyle, I love the UI, the movement is fluid (dash was a pretty hard grasp like the other comments mentioned as well). But yeah wow! this one of the best compo games I have come across! Crazy to think you pulled this off in 48 hours! Congrats!
What a wonderful game! The controls are super fluid and amazing! The artstyle is spectacular! And a well thought out take on the topic! I did not come across the bug of my character getting stuck and had an overall very enjoyable experience! A great entry indeed!
Hahaha! that was such a fun game! Also I really enjoy the fact that you can get the other people hit and run as well so while making the game challenging also keeps the requirement of skill necessary.
Fun and upbeat music and sfx. Overall had a lot of fun with the game!
Congrats team!
MONKE! I loved the concept! Simple and clean movement and abilities. Also This is indeed the dark souls of MONKE games! Really liked the art and music as well
For me personally, initially it was difficult to understand what I was supposed to be doing as I was just running around, only then did I find the arena! Is there a way we can get out of it or is it just to see how long we survive? I wanted to know if we could somehow get to the monkey guarding the golden door? Another suggestion would be the ability to start the game a little faster as each time you are made to sit through the initial cut scene which imo takes quiet some time :3
I survived until 53 in the arena :3 pretty proud of myself for that! Great work everyone! A very fun and polished product here!!
I really enjoyed the wonderful atmospheric mood of the game! For a first time 3D game its fantastic! I love how you have crafted the corridors - a seemingly endless array of space but no matter what just awaiting the unavoidable doom! I really enjoyed the sound design - the echoing steps, the adrenaline rush music when you pick up the gun etc! Really well done!
One bug I found mainly was I think sometimes with the spawning and pathing of the enemy - It happened like twice where the enemy was following my path, but I was basically behind the enemy and therefore no consequences as I could just casually walk behind him without any issue as he only kept going forward.
Although this is something I personally found a little tiring was having to launch the application every time the monster caught me! Would have preferred having a main screen you are taken back to once you are caught instead of just closing the program!
Overall a great work which I really enjoyed playing! Keep up the wonderful work
A vert fun game! I had some trouble figuring out what it was initially, but then I got the hang of it! Cute graphics and sfx!
My only suggestion would be to make the player movement a bit more faster so as to make the game a bit more fast paced!
One thing I noticed is, sometimes the trees would block your character from you and I had no idea how many spiders were ambushing me for a while xD 1.PNG
I had lots of fun playing! Nice work!
Ahahahah! the voice acting is perfection!!! Also top notch writing! I literally laughed out loud when the mc turned himself into an orange rectangle! Funniest stuff I have ever seen!
I had fun playing the game, would have loved to seen the more later cut scenes but I guess I just need to git gud!
A very fun and enjoyable game! Beautiful art and catchy music as well! Lot of good mechanics in place! Also not going to lie, the game is super addictive! A great entry for your first Ludum Dare! Keep up the amazing work!
I played a few runs and did not come across any bugs! Also nice difficulty ramp up as you keep going!
WHAT!!! NO WAAAAY WAS THIS MADE FOR COMPO! I AM LEGIT STUNNED! I have nothing but positives to say! What a spectacular entry! Incredible music, artstyle, leaderboards, mini-games! Sooo good! Also I have to say, what a wide variety of short super fast mini games! Each one of them could have been its own game!
@squaxcom Thank you for playing!

@payaosito ahahaha!!! thanks for giving my game a try!
@dennis-magnusson thanks alot for the detailed review! Yes now that you said that I can see how the distraction meter being below would be an issue!
For progression I was thinking of ways to unlock new cat and laser skins but failed to implement them on time :P
Thanks for letting me know! Much appreciated!

@kemp thanks for giving my game a try and your valuable feedback!
@gonzo13 thanks for checking it out!
Great job for your first game! The controls were really smooth and the difficulty of the game was well managed allowing for progression!
The room color shift was great! But on a more personal note, the stairs color change kind of made my eye hurt after a while since it was very bright :3
Anyway congrats on your Ludum Dare and Gamedev debut! Keep up the amazing work!
Super Simple! Super Clean, really well executed! The art was really cute and I also really liked the fact that you necessarily needn't always use the laser and good just bump the asteroid with your head!
Just my personal taste: I felt the bgm could have been a little better :3
Really smooth game! I love the simple instruction screen, the great pixel art - gives a really good atmosphere to the game! And also the soundtrack is beautiful! Very well executed! I had a blast playing it!
