I think itās a good idea that would be very interesting with more time to be developed. I liked the fact that there are different maps depending on the time (kinda reminded me ChronoTriggers). Maybe it need a bit more explanations ? At first I was not sure what to do, but I finished the game so thatās cool ! Congrats for the game !
Very solid game ! Graphics are very neat, music is amazing. The game is simple yet addictive and the overall experience is very polished. Great job ! Next time please add arrow keys for people who donāt have US keyboards. WASD is a pain for the poor French like le lol Congrats for the game !
I think the idea is neat but I donāt necessarily see what the loop thing add to the gameplay. The puzzle idea was good enough by itself but I guess you tried to find a way to connect it with the theme ? As a puzzle game fan I would want to see more with that gameplay, and I think itās the most important, so congrats ! š
Nice game ! I like the idea, and think you can do lots of stuff with it. One of the best entry I played so far, congrats ! Maybe loosing the ingredients every time you get touched by monsters was a bit too much annoying, but overall itās really cool ! š
Great idea to have put a mini comic as an introduction to the game ! Maybe it would have been cool to put it directly on the game as an intro ? I liked the game, and the way the giant face is pictured on the sky. The texture of the walls kinda made me a bit dizzy though, I believe itās due to the vertical lines maybe ? But overall it was cool, congrats !
Super polished game, congrats !! I love the art style, and the feedback is good. Great job š
Very interesting game idea ! Itās refreshing to have a game inspired by fighting games, ācause itās pretty rare on gamejams ! The game is difficult though, but I kinda suck at those games so that may be me haha I like the graphics too, looks like Ā«Ā MS paintĀ Ā» graphics and I like theses ;) Congratulations !
The graphics are great and I like the idea of being a shop keeper. Like you mentioned on your post, itās a bit confusing to understand what to do at first. Good job anyway :)
Nice game, great job ! I especially loved the character design of the hero and the ennemies ! The effect with the clock and the levels is neat too ! But the game was laggy, I donāt know if it was only me ? Congrats anyway :)
Cool game ! I like the graphics and especially the colors, even though it was sometimes hard to visualize. Good job :)
Hi ! It looks great, but the game does not launch on my web browser (safari)... not sure if thatās just me ?
Graphics are great ! Well done :) Congratulations !
Very cool game ! I think i had a bug though. My character disappeared randomly when it was pushing me infinitely (5th level I think). The game mechanics is cool, congrats !
Nice game, very polished ! Itās quite hard after a certain time, but itās good ! :) The game also gives good feedback, well done.
Obviously the art is gorgeous, but the sound design is nice too ! :) Congratulations. Itās a very chill and nice experience after playing loud and fast games all evening haha. Is Brother-main you mention a speed runner ? I heard this name when I was watching speed runs x)
Neat game, congrats ! I love the graphics. Is the effect made with a shader ? Good job anyway :)
Hey, nice game ! I think the idea is very good. The game becomes very difficult with the black blob character haha Good job !
Maybe my favorite entry so far, congrats ! Graphics are neat, sound design ans is AWESOME ! I mean it. Awesome. I liked the mood and the fact that itās short is actually a good thing imo. Well done :)
Cool game ! I finished it with neutral end but also bad end haha The music is neat ! š Congratulations :)
Cool game, congrats ! Making a 3D game for a gamejam is bold I think, nice job. I loved the animation when you die with the blood that comes down, James Bond style ;)
The art is really cool ! Reminded me of an old cartoon called Ā«Ā La lineaĀ Ā» š
Very simple but very cool game ! Itās relaxing after playing a lot of game with lots of sounds and stuff happening on screen ;) I like the glow effect. Is it made with shaders ? Congrats for this jam entry !
Nice game, congrats ! The music is cool, and the sound design in general is neat. It was hard to escape the level, but I succeeded. Good take on the theme.
Haha funny game, nice work ! I kinda feel bad for those animals though š I love the graphics, very simple but also very original I think ! Congrats :)
Thatās an hilarious take on the theme ! Are you French ? It reminded me of a very famous French movie called AstĆ©rix haha. Also, the French bureaucracy is nightmarish so I can relate ! Probably the funniest game I played for this jam so far. Congrats :)
Ćdit : oh yes it is definitely inspired by AstĆ©rix, I just read your description haha
Great job ! It works fine, and the music is very cool. I like the way the beats grow as you play ! Graphics are very minimalistic but it looks cool this way. I also made a game based on a rhythmic loop, interesting that we did it so differently haha ;) Congrats for your creation, one of my favorite at the moment !
Nice game ! I like the way it feels secret, kinda like the game Fez for example. You have this impression that thereās stuff to find and I like it ! When you push the bloc close to the level icon it does not restart at its first position so it is a bit hard to go up. Good job anyway !
Itās very nice ! Congrats ! I really loved the effect where the previous level becomes little and then another one is shown instead ! Very neat effect !
So this is how it feels to be a hamster, uh ? Cool. It was weirdly addictive haha. How did you managed to get this almost 3D lookish sprite of an hamster ? Did you use a real video or something ? I liked it anyway :)
Wow thatās very original ! The isometric view is a bold choice, it works fine. I loved the humor behind the game, and felt emphatic for this little robot friend haha. Itās very hard to make your way but I guess it goes with the theme of your game ;) Oh and the sound design is very cool, good job on that too !
Super impressive to make a 3D game in this amount of time ! It looks very cool, but I have to say, Iām French and itās almost impossible to play with the WASD controls. Obviously we canāt have the time to implement different control options but a part from that itās very cool, congratulations !
Very cool game ! The music is nice, I even listen to it on the main screen because I wanted to hear it all haha Very arcade gameplay, the way I like it. Congrats !
I liked it, well done ! The music and graphics are very nice and polished. At first it was not clear to me if I had to avoid obstacles or hit them, because I did not understood clearly why I died, but the I finally get it. Maybe a little introductory text would have been cool to explain that, and a bit of story ? Anyway congrats ! š
Hi ! I think your can't be played on safari. The game never began for me at least. Did you try to post it on itch.io maybe ? Congrats for finishing the game anyway :)
I like it, very polished ! Is there a way to destroy the back ball ? Great job anyway :)
Nice little game ! I did not managed to enter the door, is there a way ? I put some spikes like that on my game too haha, check it out if you want ;)

Way Down We Go by Slowfrog Again 2021-04-30T19:37:24Z ♥ 1
nice game! I loved the graphics and the music. The game feel nice to play, in the sense that it's chill and relaxing I though the "achievements" you can unlock was a nice touch, you rarely see that in LD games
congrats for your entry!
Vacuum Kingdom by Prof.Suarez 2021-04-30T19:18:10Z ♥ 1
nice game, I especially liked the smooth camera (little zooms are cool and feel good), the music and the controls (the controls are not too rigid, good game feel) maybe the art style is a bit too mixed up (it looks like pixel art, cartoonish, hand drawn mix together sometimes), but overall a cool entry! congrats on your game, especially the game feel (something most LD games don't really polish, usually by lack of time) :)
Into the Abyss by Sli 2021-04-29T19:56:17Z ♥ 1
nice game, I really liked the ambiance and the graphics. I like the way it becomes darker and darker the more you go deep. I feel like you could have make a cool game even without the "pick coin" gameplay, just because the atmosphere is well done.
congrats for your entry!
DIGIDIG by jolteony 2021-04-29T19:52:37Z ♥ 1
both simple, minimalistic and very cool game! I love that kind of games, it seems simple but it's the hardest thing to create such minimalistic yet interesting games, congrats on that! did you invent this gameplay or is this inspired by a game? if not, that's even more impressive. I also love Pico8 game so there's that too.
anyway congrats, very very cool entry!!

Town of Monsters by lesinvisible 2021-04-29T19:42:58Z ♥ 1
basically the Dark Souls of websites. amazing game, full of personality and passion! I absolutely loved it! I even played your other games on your website (xith google trad haha) a little bit the over-the-top voice acting was cool, the dialogues are really well written, and the music is different than the usual stuff you hear in video games (it reminded me of old John Frusciante music, from when he was really into heroin)
anyway that's super cool congrats!
Down, Down, Down by Gilokko 2021-04-29T19:21:32Z ♥ 1
my favorite entry so far! great idea to adapt Alice in wonderlands to a gameboy game. I loved it, it's very beautiful and it has a lot of personality. Great job. Only the music was a bit annoying, but its often the case with gameboy games right :) congrats!!!
Exiled by ladybenko 2021-04-29T19:12:51Z ♥ 1
very cool game! I loved the 1 bit art style, and the dialogues were very nice. I really liked the efforts you put in terms of narration (like explaining the controls in the beginning of the game). Maybe the controls were a little bit too loose (not sure how to say it in english), but overall a solid entry. Congrats!

nice game! The texts and instructions were maybe too small Apart from that, it's a solid entry, congrats! :)
Journey To The Center Of The World by paulhocker 2021-04-29T19:01:54Z ♥ 2
pretty cool game, especially the polish (little screenshake is neat) maybe the game take too much time to become hard? for a couple of minutes I thought it was not possible to loose. congrats for your entry!
Lone Signal by pyrofoux 2021-04-28T21:17:36Z ♥ 1
very cool game Iām a huge huge fan of interactive fiction and you rarely see one of those on LD, so itās refreshing! Very neat, very polished experience. Is it a twine game?
A Cat in the Aliens' Lair by Sheinxy 2021-04-28T20:57:05Z ♥ 1
I loved it! currently the only stealth game Iāve played on this LD so thatās refreshing! The only thing that was annoying is the same text that always pop over and over when you die (I suck at video game so a lot in my case haha), maybe it would be better if it was desactivated after your first try Apart from that it was super cool! huge congrats for this entry :)
Stabalot by bw_devel 2021-04-28T20:27:07Z ♥ 0
I liked the game, especially the duel mechanic, I never seen this one before! I also LOVE pico8 games, I must say I am curious: why all the ennemies have philosoph names?
congrats for your entry, I really liked this one!
Troubled Waters by Coffee Bat 2021-04-28T20:20:58Z ♥ 0
cool game, I loved the music! it game the game a lot of style points good job!
Drop Grave by Makeavoy 2021-04-28T20:16:10Z ♥ 1
impressing to make 3D games on pico8! always wanted to try that someday it's pretty cool, even though I had trouble with the perspective congrats for your entry, it must be very hard to make a 3D game on pico8 in such an amount of time
Adelie - Rolling in the Deep by Meep 2021-04-28T20:09:53Z ♥ 1
I have to be honest the game is a bit too difficult for me x) I struggled a lot to kill ennemies but the graphics are very nice though (I have a thing for Pico8, always beautiful games) I loved the mood of it too! congratulations for your entry!
Sub-Uber-Marine by extar 2021-04-28T20:04:06Z ♥ 1
I loved this game! It's like Crazy Taxy meats Subnautica x) No seriously it was very cool. Always love Pico8 games, and I liked your previous games too I'm a huge fan of spongebob too so I liked the easter eggs Congrats!
The Deep by TheMoonrise 2021-04-28T19:37:53Z ♥ 2
edit : at first I had issues playing the game but I was on safari so I played it in chrome and it worked fine!
this game is amazing! I love the ambiance, it reminds me of Outer Wild (one of my very favorite games ever)! I have to admit I'm a very bad subnautica driver and had no idea what I was doing but it was cool. The fact that you don't see anything apart from your navigation tools is amazing as you have to imagine what's going on yourself. Anyway congrats, that's a very very cool game! Can't believe it's your first 3D game, good job :)
Just Down Jack by joewan 2021-04-28T19:34:05Z ♥ 1
A pretty cool game. At first I thought it was very simple but then I ran into the boxes that change the gameplay and thought it was really neat. Congrats for the entry :)
The Greatest Thing by PBG 2021-04-28T19:29:48Z ♥ 1
hey, really cool game congrats! I liked the mood of it, and the graphics are simple but very elegant (in a minimalistic way). I have a love for Pico8 project, I have to say. The game was a bit confusing after you discover the orb but interesting. Good job!
