Good job.
I am bad at action games but I still feel good when playing this game.

Good job.
I am bad at action games but I still feel good when playing this game.
Cute graphics and audio. Simple gameplay. Love it.
Nice game overall!
No sound for me when first loading, but when I reopen the page, the sound works. I am using firefox on linux.
Getting under the bed is fun. It would by better with simple sound effects.
Graphics brings the mood, nice.
It took me some time to get used to the directions. Feel much better after that.
Nice game. Fun. Love the mechanics. Well done!
The only thing I could complain about is - this HTML5 game does not work on my firefox (mouse does not work).
Love the art style. It might be too difficult at the beginning.
Currently PostJam version is 404 for me.
Great game! Love the idea.
Personally I love the title art more :)
Do not works for me in Windows. Looks like this http://postimg.org/image/4dko5w8mx/
I suggest you have a try without jQuery, but a framework designed for canvas games. I could do better with game frameworks.
Animations are impressive!
Great music and mood.
It becomes difficult for I cannot look around every corners.
I find it funny, works with my Firefox.
An good idea for an idle(?) game.
Great idea, deep into the theme!
Enemies could have lower health, but I would like more skills for combat.
Cool! Especially the audio! Keep laughing while listening.
Nice game, but I find myself difficult to catch the rhythm and the direction.
Great puzzles! It is fun solving them.
Feel good playing this simple game. Good job in 10 hours!
I feel difficult to control, but still good to play.
Great music!!!
I find I could not stop walking and change walking directions in linux (several tries). A bug?
Fun attack game.
The enemy (human) react so fast!
Direction control should be improved. I cannot forgive this because the monster is cute and it is hard to see her face!
Audio!!! and also the graphics XD
Maybe able to run faster (or something else) would be good to gameplay. It seems a little boring to me.
I tried to play with my left hand and my right hand so I cannot say it is fun or not.
But the graphics are nice.
Crazily blooded! I cannot even find myself! But interesting.
The framerate raises too high after a while...
I LOVE THE GRAPHICS! Audio is also quite good.
The game is too hard for me, but still nice.
I just enjoy staring the skys, clouds, trees, and flying animals.
It is a great game with great atmosphere after I played in Windows. The Linux version is not playable.
Nice platform game.
A little difficult to jump, so I failed to pass the guardian on the 2nd floor without killing.
I tried to play the compo version but stopped by the shader bug.
Love the controls though I played with keyboard. Good job overall!
Good game, but yes it is a bit slow.
I love the audio and it is fun overall. Controls confused me for a while but I finnally got through.
Cute and hard game. Overall fun.
Concepts of graphics are nice, but take care of the color of texts. I could hardly read them sometimes.
I think there should be instructions at the beginning. I had tens of tries to find how to pass first trap (including tries to open the door). It goes better after that trap.
A platform game with special art and audio. Fun.
Wow!!! Love the art style very much! I enjoy play games like this one!
Overall, a great game with great graphics and music. (Why I cannot rate for audio?) Nice job!
I would try the android one later.
I find it difficult for me, but I still got ~200 :)
G-R-E-A-T
Great idea and art!
The strategy is simple to me. This is the only thing I could complain about.
Good job!
Nice graphics, especially the intro.
Not easy to control. Mouse is over sensitive.
The idea is good. I want to play more. Waiting you finishing.
Graphics and music are nice! But I always press the wrong key...
Nice JRPG game with a long story made in short time.
It is a bit hard for me, but still nice.
It is so easy to murder bunnies!
Good idea and gameplay. Great fun. Controls are a bit difficult for me.
hahaha great humor!
Overall this game is an interesting prototype! The gameplay and the graphics are good enough for compo. Adding some audio will make it much better!
Great idea! I really felt "the space is not enough" while playing this game!
I have not played this type of game before, but I think the crafting system could me more complex. Anyway, it is already a game fo great fun!
Impressive art and audio! It is really hard but overall it is a great game!
Great concept! Shrinking spaces have different effects in different levels. It is a really good idea! I also like the art style.
As a platformer, I felt it was difficult to get used to the controls. That is the only thing I would complain.
The puzzles are interesting! Overall it is a fun game with nice idea, and graphics fit it well. Great job! I would like to play more levels!
Great fun. I quite enjoy the visual design and the music.
The idea is great. It is a great compo game. Hope you can make it more complex. Different kind of resources? More enemies?
Addictive game! It is hard but quite interesting. The mechanics are innovative. Overall, nice job!
But the gameplay could be improved. The car was too difficult to get to the destination I wanted. Maybe the acc was not high enough. This made the whole game difficult and frustrating.
An interesting game! Every aspects are nice, but moving is too slow, making it really hard to dodge the big red cube. Still nice job overall!
wow I really enjoy your art work! kawaii! This game is so cute! Audio is also nice!
The only pities:
- the bugs are annoying - only 6 levels!
Great! Bring back my childhood memories. I think it would be more fun if made as a complex board game and play with friends on tables.
The concept is really creative and interesting, and I love the art style. I would like more combat and trading details (48h is too limited for this kind of game). Great job!
Interesting mechanics. Overall the game is fun to play, but the controls can be improved - When I pressed WASD, it moved too fast so it is hard to control the distance to move. Overall it is creative. Good job!
A really great idea! I have not played such a creative interactive fiction for long. Great job!
A bug is annoying: sometimes I could not talk to another one, but when I turned to another side, it works. (I play the HTML5 version.) And on my second try, I stuck on every one saying "hi ben" to me and cannot continue.
Simple but enjoyable puzzle game. Music suits the game well. Great job!
As a puzzle game maker I can pass all levels without a failed try :)
The idea is great. I find it really challenging after play for a while.
However, I do not find what the number on the right top means.
Great! It has a sense of "rougelike" - the random levels are interesting and challenging! Mouse control makes it difficult but that is the point. Nice job!
wow great fun! I was shocked when I reach the second level! I am a platformer so I did not feel too hard to jump. I played two different types of game and enjoyed the humor. Great job!
Really great concept! This game has a lot of potential. It would be a super great game if you keep developing it. I would like more complex strategies, more visual effects and multiplayer mode. Great job!
wow great concept! It is a very addictive game with great innovation. Very addictive. I would expect more types of blocks. Overall, it is already amazing in 48 hours.
Great game! Your cute art style makes this game really enjoyable. I find typing is so fun while playing this game :)
However, I think it is slightly off the topic since the theme is just in the background story. Overall it is great.
Impressive concept. It is hard for me but I still feel the idea is interesting. Good job!
Great idea, but not well delivered. The mechanics are interesting and innovative.
However, the bugs were annoying. I tried web version. It showed "pick up" but most of the time I could not pick up with [E]. Hope you can develop further! I guess it can be much better!
Great tweak on the match-3 game! Interesting and innovative! It is difficult but I guess it will not be fun if not hard enough (considering easy/hard mode?). Audio is great! About graphics, well, I felt it was hard to distinguish red/orange blocks on my screen (I am using new surface pro). It would be much better if the graphics well designed. Overall nice job!
Very interesting! It is a very special management game with creative concept. Graphics and sound effects are also great and matches the game. Well done in every aspect. Loved it.
Cats are cute! Music is great and fit the game very well. The mechanics are interesting too. The game is great fun. Hope you can keep on making it more complex! Great job!
Simple but addictive! The controls are well adjusted. Great job!
The art style is quite impressive. Simple concept but good gameplay. Time limit makes is a little hard. Overall good job!
Really love the topic of this game. The idea is innovative, and the graphics and the sound tracks are also great. But about the gameplay, when the gabbage stacks up, the arrows seem do not go with the rhythm. Maybe this needs more adjusted.
Great game. Initially I thought it was difficult, but after some tries I found strategies to won. Well ballanced.
Really great game! The random levels are interesting. The graphics and audio are also good enough. Great job!
For further development, you could consider making the management system more complex.
P.S. My game is also compiled with emscripten :) (but it is written in rust)
wow simple and addictive! Great concept! Overall it is creative and of great potential. Great job! It could be better by adding sound effects.
Tried 1P mode and find it hard for me. I hope I can keep moving while holding arrow keys.
But overall this game is great and extremely challenging (I retried again and again).
Cool! The audio is very nice! I love the art of the prologue. In comparison, the in-game graphics are nice enough but can be improved. What I should complain about is the control, making this game difficult from the most beginning.
Such a cute game! The concept is great, too. Nice job!
However, this game randomly freezed on my PC (windows 10). Every time I had to restart the exe and replay from the start.
Fun concept. The art is nice especially the animation! Nice job!
It is a pity the puzzles are too easy for me. Maybe you could make more levels.
Concept, audio, mechanics, all great. But I was not able to find the password. -1 star :(
@xcvzxc shooting games are too hard for me :(
Graphics and audio are amazing! Overall it is fun and addictive. Great job!
The difficulty seemed suddenly increased after about ten to twenty blocks. This might need more adjusted.
The game brought me a depressed mood. Nice work! The graphics and audio fit the mood very well! I really enjoyed the concept. Hope you could develop further.
When I first played, I did not find the bed interface until a week passed. Also, other parts were not easy to understand. There should be more detailed intro about the interface.
The mechanics are great. The game is fun and make me want to play more.
However it might be too difficult. When there is already a wall, it is too hard to rescue. What about providing an "easy mode" for practice?
Nice game with a nice idea. I also found it difficult to control, but overall, it is nice!
Cool idea! The gameplay is so well designed! There are different terrains and random levels. Like it.
However, there are several problems.
* Some terrains are hard to recognize. * When stepped onto spikes, the wall consistently shrinking. I think there should be some invincible time.
These nagetively effected my game experience.
Tried 1P mode. The idea is nice and the game is good overall. It could have a better game experience if the audio is better.
Great game! I find shooting game is hard for me, but I really have fun in this game. I am trying to get 100+ !
Really fun and innovative! Love your idea! The graphics and the audio are good enough. You did a very **GREAT** job if it is your first LD!
The only thing I should complain is that the difficulty increased so fast.
Overall, it is a great typing game prototype. Hope you can develop further!
Great concept! The minimized art is suitable for the game!
I also made my LD42 game in Rust, though it compiled to WebGL with emscripten. The coding experience was great!
An addictive game! The concept is simple but interesting. Great idea! I think I found a strategy - try moving more boxes in one time.
I would suggest you keep developing but do not make the basic concept too complex.
Very great concept! The idea is really creative! The graphics is also great, and cute! Music fits the game very well. But it is very difficult. I think checkpoints are really needed. Some bugs are making it even more difficult. I have an idea: the clones are slowly disappearing so that they are not always blocking. Overall it is still really great!
Tried the WebGL version and got through. The idea is interesting and the mechanics are innovative. Great job!
However, the bugs are annoying. Sometimes it did not move when pressing arrow keys, and sometimes I could even walk onto boxes. It would be much better if there is a bug free version.
A relaxing game! Graphics and music matches the game very well. The whole game is great. Well done!
If you keep on working, consider adding more complex mechanics.
Interesting concept! The graphics, music and sound effects fit the game very well. I gave a high rating on the mood. It made me feel "heart broken" when the game ended. Great job!
I hope the mechanics could be more complex.
WOW great visual effect and music! Very enjoyable! It is a little difficult to control but overall, great job!
@ethan-nachreiner Thanks for your comments.
I think first several levels should be easy enough, so the second section (she came) and the third section (she left) are generally harder. I did not have much time to research the game mechanics. The difficulty control is not well enough currently :(
However, she is just keep bringing everything and do no cleaning. It is also a kind of "love" :)
@jens you can try keyboard [N] if you find a level is too hard for you
@ismael-rodriguez Thanks for the feedback!
@isubka Thanks! I also love your game. It is solid, interesting, and carefully designed in every aspect. This is my 5th game jam. This time I tried not to focus on the graphics and the detailed level design, but to do my best on storytelling. It resulted in a game which was different from other games I made before. I am glad you enjoyed it!
And thanks to all the advices and encouragements above!
@king-kujito Thanks! I will do further development with more researches of the mechanics.
I am happy that you feel it sweet not sad ^_^
@f1krazy I am considering making the story longer (adding a happy ending?).
Super fun! Originally I thought it was a relaxing management game, but starting from level 2, I could just put things in the room, no arrangments :( But it was still super fun. Great job!
I think you could try to give a score on how well the furniture is placed :)
The web version on itch.io is not correctly sized. Maybe you should check the configuration in itch.io.
Ahaha the art and the sound effects! Great overall. But the gameplay did not attract me much. Maybe it needs more elements, or better "story mode".
The basic concept is great! I think the mechanics are not complex enough. Maybe you should consider adding more elements to make it interesting. The graphics is nice. Overall I have fun playing it. Nice job!
Interesting concept. It is a game with great innovocation. I enjoyed the story. Graphics and audio are also well made! About the gameplay, the blue screen appeared too often, having a nagetive experience. Overall it is still really nice!
Addictive puzzle game! Now I am researching if there is a strategy to play this game forever. The mechanics are so interesting. Great job!
WOW great job! Really enjoy the cute graphics and gameplay! My only wish is adding some music. It is already great for a compo entry!
This game is fun and the audio is nice. As a platformer, I found jumping is somewhat difficult to control. Overall, a good start on LD!
Super great graphics and audio! The gameplay is interesting. I really enjoy the game experience.
However you should change the key controls. When I press ctrl + w , the browser tab is closed :(
I was attracted by the cover. Love your art style very much! The sound effect is nice, too. The whole game is really relaxing and enjoyable. Well done!
Quite challenging. I think first several levels should shrink slower. Anyway it is still nice and fun to play!
Great fun! I am bad at shooting games but still enjoy because the gameplay is funny. Good job!
I really appreciate your idea and the art style. The mods are also very interesting. I died many times to experience different combinations. The matter is that it is too difficult to control. I felt so hard to progress further. If simpler at the beginning then it would be much better. It is already enjoyable anyway. Nice job!
Eggs are cute! The little game is super relaxing. The graphics and audio are so nice. Well done!
I found a cute bug: the eggs would gather together at the bottom.
I enjoyed the game! It is like a simple walking simulator game. Graphics and sound effects are carefully made! It would be interesting if it has a story or something else. Keep doing!
Solid construction game! The gameplay is similar to some games I played before, but also has unique rules. I guess it is very difficult to accomplish in 48 hours! Also the audio and the animation are great!
It is quite difficult at the beginning, I agree that a short tutorial is needed. But it is already amazing in compo!
Cute! Everything is cute. The sound is pro. Great job! But I need some checkpoints :cry:
Keeping laughing makes the game difficult :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
I found it hard after giving up attacks. Love the cute sound effects. Great game!
The concept is interesting. Blood is preserved and can be sacreficed between levels. It is much different from common platform games. Graphics and sound effects are well done. A great game!
I would like a save point between levels. Beating lower levers after getting killed are a little bored.
The mechanics are interesting. The keyboard controls are a little weird (I find it hard to walk fast in the maze). Nothing else to complain. Great job!
I have not rated this game yet, because I cannot pass lv 4 and I think it is not passable. Is there any bug or hint?
Reminds me the years I play SuperTux at the beginning, but it is a very innovative game then! Great mechanics. Atmosphere is also great - I can feel the freezing winter. However, it is too difficult for me. Maybe making a smaller map could be much better.
Enjoyed your humor subtitles. Great job! Puzzles are nice and fun and fits the theme by the puzzle design. Art and sound effects are also nice. Physics are sometimes wield (esp when rotating) but I really enjoy the funny bugs!
Amazing game! The atmosphere is so nice. The graphics and audio are properly set. It could be even better if controls are adjusted better, but it is already super great in 48 hours!
The first part was frustrating (I figured out by reading comments and guessing). The second part was a little difficult. Other parts were really great. I was always expecting what will appear on the screen! It just went black after 10 seconds. It really ended?
Really great one! I really wanted to show it to my friends. It made me thought a lot about our life style. Thanks a lot!
Your art is also amazing. I liked how color scheme changes. I really wanted to add sound tracks for it! I gave a high rating, including "fun".
Oh a tiny fun game. I cannot blame anything, except the audio is not loud enough so I did not notice it in my first try (but it is not a bit issue). The difficulty is just right! Enjoyed it!
Creative platform puzzles! The game is really challenging. Simple graphics and music suits the game well. Only contains several levels, but it is already great (I guess it would take long to design levels for such a new idea). Nice job!
Oh my glob! The cat is super cute!!! The rat in the middle is the most difficult to catch.
It is a very creative theme interpretation. Really relaxing with the music. What about changing the music of the title page?
It is much more difficult than I thought, but great fun! The concept are great and every piece works right in the game. Great job!

I can play it forever :)
Great concept! The mechanics are creative and can be improved (good enough for compo!). The background music is really suitable for the game. Nice job!
Made me laugh out. It is quite free to control the platform. It might be a little simple but fun enough. Great job!
W~A~I~F~U~~~~
Best game I played in this LD so far! Cute and special art style, proper sound effects, and innovative gameplay, all are super nice. Hope you can make a longer story later!
@wdelvi Glad you enjoyed it! I also wish for better art, but I am bad at it :(
@kantieno Thanks for the advice!
@ravarion You don't need to go through both endings this way, but it is a good challenge!
@boundtotheearth Agree. Originally I wanted to do the moving animation, but it is hard to do it bug-free in short time. I also considered to make an indicator, but finally I thought it is not nessessary. Thanks for your comments!
@morriss oh thanks! This game is similar to my LD42 game (storytelling puzzles). Which one you like more?
@vija02 Thanks for your advice. Originally I thought it was not that useful so I did not make this feature. I could make it longer if more time given, but the levels were hard to design :cry:
Great story writing. Pass through 3 endings (I think). The story is interesting and everything goes well with it, except that walking long is a little boring. Nice game!
Relaxing! I really enjoy it! The controls are well adjusted. I can easily push them together and make the sacrifice together. Great job!
But I still think scores are needed, or let me know how many sheep sacreficed.
一群蚂蚁的西游记！
Very innovative concept! It was a challenge to control but finally I made through the last hill. Great fun! It was enjoyable to see the ball rolling fast, but sound effects were really needed. And... the English text passed too fast for a Chinese like me.
The gameplay has great potential! It is so great for your first LD!
Creative mechanics! Match the theme quite well. You added so many mechanics so that levels were not simply repeating. Great job! I feel satisfied passing through all levels. Some small points to improve:
* Switch last two levels (I think) * Bugs are annoying -
无标题.png
Amazing concept and mechanics, nice job! I can see great potential about the gameplay.
Something to improve: the game might be too hard after giving up some abilities (for me). I wish a "simple mode" with save points. Sound effects can make the game better.
Recalls the nights I played *don't starve together* with friends. Great mechanics and graphics effects! It is easy to get lost at the beginning (just like DST) but that's fine. If there is any sound it would much better.
Seems hard for me (I am bad at this kind of game), but still fun. I found a strategy - try stacking enemies together. Great job!
A good start on game jams! You have an interesting idea and delivered it to me! About this game, I think the most thing to improve is the UI. Keyboard control is weird. I would suggest mouse click or drag instead. Your art skill seems great. What about adding more images and animations next time? Keep on!
A cute game! Love your art style and interesting puzzles!
It reminds me that it is already too late here. I need sleeping.
The mechanics are interesting and innovative! The key problem is that first several levels are too simple and slow. It is much more fun in higher levels!
Interesting mechanics! Levels are carefully designed and some are quite difficult. Adding sound effects could make this game better (and won't take too much time I think).
P.S. Your hint was helpful :)
