The art and ui looked very polished. The gameplay was not super fun but I appreciate the level of detail in what was presented

Solid little game, decent UI and graphics. Also matched the theme exactly (which is pretty hard for this LD's themse). Game was a little slow, but it did have some variety too it.
The game is really great from a polish standpoint, very few quality of life features are missing. Its close to the theme but a little off. It wasn't too long or difficult either. With a little more time and this amount of polish you could make a really fun game!
Really fun and addicting. I love high-score based games, it makes me want to keep playing more and make it on the leaderboard. Watched a streamer play it for a bit and overall solid mini game.
Funny little game. I love little diner dash like games. Feels paced well.
Definitely could improve the graphics and feel a little bit but its a game jam after-all so great job.
Choosing the babies was a little tedious for me personally, which made it not fit the theme super well IMO. I found myself just skipping through the last couple just to see what happens.
The baby fight was funny though
I will upload a version to download since I've heard some people have issues with WebGL!
Also I realize the game is a bit hard for new players so I'm going to make it a tad easier so its less stressful.
It took me a while to figure out how to play. Introducing new players to a game can be hard but it definitely would help here!
Solid game overall. Any game that has a leader board + the full package (main menu, settings, gameplay loop, tutorials, etc.) is highly rated by me.
The game itself was pretty difficult and I only played it a few times so I only got to about 4 yen.
Also shoutout for playing my game on stream! :v:
Very unique game. I love ideas that don't seem to make sense but (why are we an air traffic controller for snails? who cares why). The voice audio was funny and the game also gets challenging.
Fun game and was fairly clear what I had to do. Its pretty hard to accomplish good clarity in a game jam so well done.
The paper-themed hand drawn art all looked good as well!
Game was funny and the wrapping mechanic was definitely new to me!
Felt a little too easy. I had fun just letting it sit after a while to see the defeat screen.
The intro and narrative were very funny and well made for a game jam game!
Simple and fun game, looks good and feels fine. Woulda like more variation in upgrades or moves since I can't even see my damage or crit. All the upgrade are just generic damage upgrades which got stale to me.
@SirLich There is audio, I'm unsure why it did not work for you. Let me know if you can figure out why its not playing because it works for me!
Thanks for the feedback
