It might just be me, but I would've liked for the game to hold my hand and really explain the mechanics a little bit longer. I was confused how I ended up winning past the 5th round. I enjoy learning on my own by failing and trying again, but this felt a bit too complicated to just figure out by playing. Overall though it seems like a really unique concept and I am very excited where it can go if you decide to take it further.
Honestly, I found the game to be fascinating and my curiosity definitely pushed me to finish the game. The length is just right, and I like how it's a story based off of certain puzzles. From my understanding, you can improve the model to generate better results before you scale up. I think that's brilliant. I don't know how you did this but well done.
Really enjoyed the music and sound fx. There were no noticeable cuts in the music which is really nice. Visuals were amazing too. Despite it being a really short game, there's evidently more lore, and I felt kind of confused. Gameplay was unique and interesting though. Would love for it to be expanded in a 15 minute game. There's a lot to work with here.
Love the graphics! I like how the health is animated like the life force is dripping out. It is definitely very humorous, especially with how absurdly strong you get at the end. Adding a concrete end at level 100 would be really satisfying. Music is interesting and changes enough to keep it fresh. SFX are great as well. Overall enjoyable experience, lowkey addicting until the later stages.
The concept is really interesting! I feel like the idea that you need to vacuum ghosts closer to you to get xp but also ghosts kill you by getting too close is super novel, and I would've liked for there to be a visual difference between your light scaring the ghosts and the vacuum sucking up the ghosts. Also it'd be nice for there to be a visual difference between ghosts that are gonna give you xp and ghosts that are going to kill you. Other than that, the game was really fun to play, it looks really polished, I like the upgrades and power-up implementation. The SFX are really satisfying when you pick up a ghost or get upgrades and I really enjoyed the music continuity. Overall really impressive game!

Love the take on the theme! I haven't seen a lot of games like this, and the actual implementation of that concept is very well done. I wish that there was a way to see previous blocks and how close they are to breaking. SFX and music were all very charming and significantly added to the mood. Well done!

I don't know why but the sounds the little guy made were really funny. Made the game really charming and cool to play. I also got stuck unfortunately, but the part that I did play was really interesting and I enjoyed the puzzle platforming element to it. As a music composer I would have loved to hear some music, because the moving sound of Clappy sound like a synth, and it would be so cool if the music was activated by him moving with that synth sound. Otherwise super cool game!

Really fun relaxing game! I love the relaxing music and SFX. It was intuitive enough to figure out pretty quickly. I will say, I think that the game would benefit if you made it easier to see the weave pattern you are trying to replication-like some sort of zoom in function, because I had a hard time seeing it. Otherwise, this was a fantastic and unique game I would genuinely play with a bit more polish.

Such an interesting concept! I loved the mood and audio and the way the text reacted to me typing. It was all very satisfying. Wish it was longer so I could understand the lore a bit better :(. Nice job on this game!
Nimkip and the Quest to Build an Airship by T C 2026-10-22T17:27:05Z ♥ 2
Really fun and relaxing game of expansion and exploration. I enjoyed the progression and sound effects, but the music was a bit too quiet. Maybe I could fix that in settings, but by default I didn't really hear it. Also I really wanted to see what the elephant was! Unfortunate that I couldn't play more after I won. Well done!
Six-Shooters & Saké by ComicSans 2026-10-22T05:00:17Z ♥ 2
I liked the concept of the game but it was really difficult. Maybe I didn't fully understand the game but I used all the abilities correctly, reviving with the Sake, and attacking with the special attacks and whatnot, but I kept dying :(, which definitely made it less enjoyable I'd say. The music was an absolute banger though, so kudos to whoever did that.

Super fun game! I loved the storyline and dialogue. Dentures were really strong, but it allowed me to progress pretty easily so thats nice. Glad I was able to finish it. Great work!
V0X : Parabiosis by mohidTheDev 2026-10-20T06:06:19Z ♥ 1
Super interesting game with the temporary gun buffs. It took me a bit to figure out how it works, but when I figured it out, I had a really fun time upgrading and collecting materials. I didn't have enough time to read the buffs/debuffs because I was always worried about being hit, so if I could make one suggestions, I'd say to lose the debuffs depending on location, and just have a single trait per organ so it can be quickly throw away or equipped. I'd also say to make each buff last longer so I put more thought into the type of organ/buff I want. Overall super cool audio and visuals are sooo creepy too.
