Visually stunning!!! Really fun to play as well 😄 Honestly, this project has HUGE potential. I genuinely hope you continue developing it! I don’t know if you have any kind of studio/social media account to follow the project, but I’d definitely love to keep up with future progress if you continue it. A real gem, without a doubt. Congratulations, amazing work!!!
great idea!! love it the effects
pretty black cat 🐈
Really nice project! I had a lot of fun playing it and found it very enjoyable. You’re right, we ended up with somewhat similar ideas, but I think your execution, atmosphere, and overall result are really strong, great job! I really enjoyed it! 😄
Visually beautiful and super adorable!! I love the design, it’s way too cute!! 😄
Visually impressive, amazing work! Really great game, congratulations!!
Pretty fun overall, although a few more levels would have been great It has a lot of potential if it gets expanded further, especially with more types of towers and different effects to add more variety and depth
Visually impressive, the art and atmosphere are excellent!!
In terms of gameplay, it felt really interesting and quite unique. I really liked the idea of using the panel and reacting through patterns, it’s a pretty innovative mechanic.
I always appreciate games that try something outside the usual formulas like this.
10/10 👍
Really cool idea! I liked how it mixes planning and reaction, it feels pretty unique having to build the signal path while also dealing with threats in real time. The atmosphere and visuals are also really strong and give it a nice vibe.
It took me a bit to understand what each node type did (especially circles vs squares), but once it clicked it became a lot more intuitive and fun.
I also ran into a moment where I wasn’t fully sure why I couldn’t place something / hit a limit, so a bit more feedback there would help a lot.
Overall though, really interesting concept with a lot of potential. Nice work!! 👍
Really nice concept and beautiful pixel art!!! Loved it, great job!
Visually this is absolutely stunning, the sprite design is a solid 10/10!
The animations are full of personality and really bring the characters to life, and the overall art direction is just fantastic. It all works together really well with the humor and the vibe of the game.
Gameplay-wise it’s also very fun and easy to get into, with a satisfying loop and a lot of charm.
If anything, a bit more clarity on upgrades could help, but honestly the presentation alone makes this stand out a lot.
Amazing work!!! 😄
Really interesting concept and a very unique atmosphere — the art style is beautiful and fits the theme really well.
I have to agree with others that the scanner is a bit hard to understand at first. It took me a while to figure out what I was looking for and how to properly interpret it. Some clearer visual/audio feedback or guidance would probably help a lot there.
Movement also felt a bit slow at times, especially considering the size of the world, which can make exploration feel a bit tedious.
That said, I really like the idea and the overall vibe, it’s a very original take on the theme. With a bit more clarity and pacing tweaks, it could be a really strong experience. Great job!! 😄
Really impressive entry, especially the amount of content you managed to include!
The color-mixing + tower defense mechanic is very clever and the tutorial is super well done. Great visuals and audio too.
A speed-up option during waves could help pacing a bit, but overall fantastic work, feels like a full game already! 😄
Really nice game, I had a fun and relaxing experience with it!
The core idea of building a radio network across space is very cool, and it feels great to see your coverage and income grow over time. The atmosphere and music also add a lot to that cozy feeling.
If I had to point out something, I think a bit more clarity/feedback in the UI would help a lot, especially to better understand what actions are successful (like relays or bribes) and how they affect the network.
But overall, great job — really enjoyable experience!
The atmosphere is incredible!!! it kept me tense the whole time. Although I never actually saw the monster haha.
If I had to point out one thing, at first I thought the battery percentage was the signal quality, so I drained it almost immediately in my first run haha.
Other than that, the experience was really great!! 😄
A completely unexpected gem!! The visuals are beautiful, and the variety of minigames is really fun (except for Packet Router… that brought back some traumatic memories hahaha 😢)
The aesthetic is a 10/10, sound design is great, and the minigames are engaging while still being easy to understand
Congratulations, this is a wonderful game!!
Loved the unique rhythm-based gameplay! Controlling rats to the beat was a clever and fun mechanic. The medieval art style really added to the experience! Great job, looking forward to seeing more! 🐀🎶
What a thrilling experience! The atmosphere in the haunted cemetery is so immersive, i love it. I found the controls a bit tricky at first, especially with the ZQSD layout, but I appreciate that you’re working on optimization. Overall, it’s a fantastic entry with great potential! Great job, team! 👻🕷️
What a charming game! The art is absolutely lovely and really adds to the overall relaxing experience. I loved the cute characters and the unique visuals, they really brought a smile to my face! The voice acting is top-notch, making the game feel even more immersive. I appreciate the fun mechanics, though I did find some parts a bit tricky. Overall, this game is wonderfully polished and filled with personality. Great job to the entire team! Can’t wait to see what you create next! :))
This game is really beautiful! The atmosphere and audio work together perfectly to create a lovely experience. The visuals are charming, and while some of the controls were a bit tricky, it didn’t take away from the fun. Overall, a great entry with a lot of heart. Keep up the amazing work! :))
I really enjoyed the visuals and the overall vibe. However, the combat felt a bit underwhelming. Adding some knockback for enemies and more impact to the sword strikes would make the experience much more satisfying. Despite that, it's a solid entry with great potential! Keep up the great work! :))
I loved the cute little creatures in the game, the art style is fantastic! :)) The aesthetic is super charming! Great work overall!! <3
What a cute game! It was so relaxing to play, and I really enjoyed it! Great job to the team! 🎉
The assets are adorable, and the atmosphere is lovely. I appreciate the unique concept of building a bridge with fleas! 🐜✨
Overall, fantastic effort! Keep it up! ❤️
What a charming game! I loved figuring out the mechanics on my own; it added a nice sense of mystery. 🌟 The animations are delightful, and I appreciate the old-school art style.
Overall, fantastic effort in such a short time! Keep it up! ❤️
This is a really charming puzzle platformer! I loved how each new mechanic, like the speed boosts and extra-long purple mushrooms, kept surprising me. 🎮 The art is beautiful, and the music and sound effects fit perfectly with the gameplay.
While some of the later levels were pretty tricky, they were definitely fun to figure out! Overall, fantastic job, your hard work really shows! Keep it up! 😊
I do wish it was a bit harder, but overall, I really enjoyed it! The visuals are fantastic, especially when the rats transform into a giant rat—such a satisfying moment!
Great job on creating something so enjoyable. Keep up the amazing work! :))
Your game is super cute and fun! 😊 The art style is absolutely charming, and the music fits the mood perfectly. The puzzles had just the right amount of challenge, and those little creatures are so adorable (especially their funny twerking, haha!)
Great job on creating something so polished, this could easily be expanded into a larger game with more levels. Loved it! :))
The visuals are impressive, especially knowing all of it was made in just 72 hours. The resource management and bot mechanics add a fun challenge to the gameplay. I did find it a bit tough at times, but that made completing levels even more satisfying!
Amazing job on this project, especially for such a short time frame! :))
I really, really hate spiders, but I have to say I actually enjoyed your game quite a bit! The way the web forms is super satisfying (I may have spent way too much time clicking randomly just to see what shapes I could make, haha).
Honestly, great game! Loved it! <3 :))
The art style in your game is absolutely adorable and fits the Halloween vibe perfectly! 🎃 I loved the attention to detail, especially in the visuals and dialogue, which really added to the overall charm. The atmosphere is both cute and spooky, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
Great job on creating something so polished in such a short amount of time! :))
Awesome graphics, good gameplay, very good game! 10/10!!
Mecánicas de juego agradables, buena jugabilidad y muy agradable jugarlo!
Lo único 'malo' que encuentro, es la falta de un tutorial, aunque en cuanto repartes 2 emociones, entiendes a la perfección el funcionamiento! El ambiente mágico que trasmite esta muy logrado y los diseños son muy agradables!! Enhorabuena, está entre mis favoritos de esta Jam!!
very good graphics and level design!! Congratulations!
I love the sounds!! Very good game
I don't know if I'm the only one who has felt playing GTA... I loved driving and... well, I'm not going to say what happened to people hahaha. Very good game!
The only problem is the lack of information/tutorial. Apart from a tutorial, some feedback to locate the deliveries on the planets... Except that, the mechanics of flight, gravity, screen rotation... is great. But it is a masterpiece! I hope you continue to add content, because the game has a lot of potential if you keep it on the right track. Congratulations!!
An incredible game, very funny the mechanics of pissing in the packages. A very innovative use of the theme! Congratulations
I loved it, really. I have to say that for a large part of the game I have been dodging cars just for fun, because of how satisfying it was to drive. The graphic section is marvelous, very retro, which makes me imagine myself in the arcade playing it... I loved it!
Wow el estilo lowpoly que habéis logrado, está muy trabajado. Las mecánicas de entrega y defender el globo son entretenidas. Al principio los controles son un poco liosos, pero en nada te acostumbras y se disfruta de la experiencia! Enhorabuena por el juego!!
Wow very good game, quite nice controls and overall quite fun!!
The idea of the game is quite good! There is a problem that makes it quite unfair and that is that sometimes enemies come without leaving any gap to pass, forcing you to collide with them and 'lose life'... Other than that, the flight mechanics are very nice and as a casual game it's fun!!
I loved the puzzle mechanics, the game is very ingenious and the graphics are wonderful!! Very good game, congratulations!
Wow, the game is impressive, the graphics are super cute and the animations of instability of the enemies are wonderful. : 3 I loved it
Impressive game, the physics mechanics are a delight and the game experience 10/10. I hope I can play it on a platform like the switch, because it gives me many sensations of a game to play quietly in bed. congratulations, it's a masterpiece: 3
Impressive graphics, I really loved it: 3 congratulations
I had a great time, although at first it was a little difficult for me to understand the controls (being a jam I fully understand), I have been fascinated by the way of combining gravity physics. Very good job :3
The game looks amazing and conveys a lot of tranquility. Very good job: 3
I've been testing awesome games for a while and this is one more. I loved the game, the models, graphics, mechanics ... everything is 10. I had some error when pausing the game when the cauldron has exploded, but not important. Congratulations on the game you have made :)
I can only say MASTER PIECE, awesome game, no words seriously. This I do not expect to see here, this I hope to see in the switch. Congratulations seriously <3
Awesome game, I had a great time and I really enjoyed it. Great gaming experience: 3 And congratulations on the sounds and graphics, they have made me fall in love
Congratulations on the game you have made, it has incredible mechanics and it has been a very good gaming experience. The graphics and sounds transmit a lot of tranquility and makes you want to play for hours. I would love to get to see this game on consoles like the Switch, as it transmits a very good mood

Rail Mania by darkshadow 2026-10-25T00:18:37Z ♥ 0
The game looks great! The puzzles are really interesting and made me think much harder than I expected hahaha. The concept is fantastic, and the execution is spot on. Really clever and well-designed gameplay!
Amazing work, congratulations!!
Road Rage by FunnyPumpkin 2026-10-25T00:12:53Z ♥ 0
The game looks great and is really entertaining! I was completely caught off guard by the fact that things could start failing. I thought it was going to be a chill game about simply driving the car around, until my joystick started malfunctioning, then my PC... hahaha!
It was such a fun and unexpected experience! The game keeps you on your toes the entire time, and I absolutely loved that twist. Incredible work, congratulations!
Polasnap by rhewid 2026-10-25T00:08:17Z ♥ 0
Simple idea, PERFECT EXECUTION! The music and sound effects are fantastic and really relaxing. I tried so many times, but I just couldn't get the "one-of-a-kind" right ;-; Even with the guide showing me which ones they are, I still couldn't figure it out hahaha!
Honestly, this game is unexpectedly good! Such a simple concept executed so perfectly. Absolutely loved it, amazing work!
Nimkip and the Quest to Build an Airship by T C 2026-10-24T12:53:07Z ♥ 1
The music is so relaxing, and I was really surprised by how much progression there was! The game was genuinely enjoyable, and the graphics are absolutely adorable.
The only small issue I found is that you can accidentally trap a Nimkip by planting another one in its only exit cell. You then have to wait for it to grow before you can get out. It's a pretty minor issue, though! I just took the opportunity to gather some wood while I waited hahaha.
Really fun game, and surprisingly addictive! Great job!!
Oldie by Kwetka 2026-10-24T12:37:18Z ♥ 0
The game looks absolutely gorgeous!!! And it's so addictive! Honestly, this is the kind of game I'd happily buy on Steam. My only minor gripe is that I couldn't skip through the dialogue using the spacebar, but other than that, it's fantastic!
Amazing work!
GOT IT by Richard8 2026-10-23T08:49:10Z ♥ 2
The game looks really lovely! The distortion effects and the cards feel very polished, and everything comes together really nicely. It was fun to give it a try! Great work!
ZERO_DAY by Willops 2026-10-23T00:23:12Z ♥ 1
Absolutely impressive! Being able to build my own ship is such a complex and interesting system, and the quality of the execution is amazing.
Great job! Definitely one of my favorite games I’ve played in this Ludum Dare edition.
What is this? by Dreamerkaj 2026-10-23T00:03:17Z ♥ 0
I'm absolutely in love with the art style! It's genuinely breathtaking. The step limit made me think twice (or four times hahaha) before every move, which added a really nice strategic element to the gameplay. Fantastic game design all around!
And it's the first time I've ever seen someone include the actual sheet music for the game's melody! What a wonderful touch! Absolutely loved it. Amazing work, congratulations!
Switchboard Operator by marudziik 2026-10-22T23:58:11Z ♥ 0
Really lovely pixel art style! The cable movement feels super satisfying, too. The game gave me a bit of a Papers, Please meets Overcooked vibe, which is a great combination!
I also felt like I was developing dyslexia while playing, because I kept connecting the cables backwards, putting AD where it should've been DA hahaha!
Really fun project, great job!
Rewind to Survive by EX3D0 2026-10-22T23:40:30Z ♥ 0
The game looks beautiful! I absolutely love the rewind mechanics. Being able to "co-op" with a version of yourself from a few seconds ago is one of those mechanics that NEVER gets old! Great sound design, beautiful visuals, and most importantly, really solid gameplay. Fantastic work, congrats!
HammerTime by ScrapMetal 2026-10-21T18:49:50Z ♥ 1
Beautiful graphics and hilarious animations! I absolutely loved it. I may have hammered in WAY fewer nails than I would've liked, but every single miss made me laugh hahaha! Had a great time playing this. Really fun game, amazing job!
Overdub by Stefan B. 2026-10-21T18:42:23Z ♥ 3
Absolutely beautiful visuals, and the movement feels fantastic! The recording and rewinding mechanic is pure genius. It really makes you think carefully about every move you make and adds so much depth to the gameplay. A masterpiece, without a doubt! Amazing work!
Rust and Grit by JuanRod707 2026-10-21T12:01:23Z ♥ 1
Wow, absolutely incredible! Such an innovative concept! The whole experience was challenging, but I loved it. The movement mechanics are genius, and having to line up your shots while manually reloading the missiles makes the gameplay so unique and engaging.
An absolutely IMPRESSIVE project! Congratulations on creating something so original. Amazing work!
da Vinci's WAR MACHINE by Fassenberg 2026-10-21T11:53:32Z ♥ 1
Hahaha, ramming into the little soldiers with the tank was easily the best part! It was surprisingly addictive, and I had a lot of fun playing it. Really cool project, great job!
An Old Joke by DazyLude 2026-10-21T11:45:46Z ♥ 3
The game looks great! I really love how you approached the jam's theme. It was completely unexpected and genuinely innovative! Summoning the giant octopus to ask it things like "My throat hurts" and getting "Get well" in response was hilarious for some reason hahaha. 😂 The whole game has such a quirky and charming sense of humor that really made me smile.
Really fun game, great job! 🎉
Nightguard by Parxer 2026-10-21T11:34:52Z ♥ 2
Impressive work, especially considering how little time you had for the jam! Congratulations! It was really fun to feel like a lamplighter for a while, and I thought the weapon reloading mechanic was a really clever idea. The game looks great and plays amazingly well. Really well done, fantastic game! 🎉
Flesh Harbour by AxolotlUwU 2026-10-21T11:30:10Z ♥ 1
Visually stunning! The UI and overall aesthetic are incredible. This game left me feeling genuinely uneasy, in the best possible way. Being able to create such an atmosphere through visuals alone is on another level!
Congratulations on an amazing game! I'm usually not a fan of fishing games, but this one is absolutely worth playing. Fantastic work! 👏❤️
Apteka by Eugenik 2026-10-21T11:26:46Z ♥ 3
Visually stunning! "Medicine, Please" would honestly have been a fantastic title and reference. This game is genuinely mind-blowing! I have to admit, though, that nearly 1 GB was a bit of a killer hahaha, but it was absolutely worth it! Amazing work!
(C)old Calls by JDeeDubs 2026-10-21T11:05:30Z ♥ 1
The art style is absolutely incredible, and the level of detail is amazing (postage stamps as buttons?! What a brilliant idea!!!). Something about the UI and overall aesthetic gave me strong 'Papers, Please' vibes, in the best possible way. I don't know if it was the visuals, the animations, or the combination of everything, but it really worked!
I honestly think this game has incredible potential to become a successful indie title. I really hope you continue developing it, because I'd love to see it on Steam someday!
Wishing you all the best with the project. Absolutely fantastic game, congratulations! ❤️🎉
TrainManager77 by BeatQuestGames 2026-10-21T10:57:51Z ♥ 0
I felt a little dumb playing this hahaha! Trying to keep track of all three at once completely fried my brain. It was a really interesting experience, though, and I genuinely enjoyed it! Such a unique and innovative idea. Congrats, great job!
Now Showing a Stranger by ThanatosIsANoob 2026-10-20T18:59:17Z ♥ 1
I really love how you interpreted the theme! The game looks great, and the old TV effect gives it a really nice aesthetic. Having the current objective displayed at the top is super helpful, and highlighting the objects you can interact with makes everything feel intuitive. The sound effects are great, too!
The idea of representing anonymous faces with noise/static is brilliant. Although, I have to admit, approaching a gravestone in the cemetery and suddenly having someone stare back at me was genuinely creepy hahaha. Seriously impressive!
Honestly, I felt like I was interacting with a TV series I was watching. It's been a long time since I've been this hooked on a visual novel. I'm not sure if I got the bad ending, "Be Yourself", but I really enjoyed the dialogue. Not everything needs to make perfect sense, and I actually love the idea that something as simple as accepting or refusing a cigarette can influence your judgment.
Definitely one of my favorite games of this Ludum Dare! Congratulations on such an amazing experience! ❤️
Corner the Market by ectucker1 2026-10-20T18:40:48Z ♥ 3
The game looks absolutely gorgeous, and the music and sound effects are incredibly relaxing. Honestly, it was such a cozy experience after a long day at work! It's also one of the most interesting and unique incremental idle games I've played in a while. Really refreshing to see something so innovative in the genre!!
