Haha omg, how did we both make merry go round games?? This is awesome.
I finally managed to get past the slump and get myself making some decent coin, but it seems that's just the endless loop, so then I decided to see how bad things could get. Didn't take long fro the rats to move in, and dolan to try and sustain himself on bread and dirt, until he got rekt.
Haha good entry, but now I feel a bit depressed.
Ah such an interesting take on the theme, the shoot mechanics were great. The combo system was a good inclusion too. Great job.
Great puzzle game good work. The tutorial is solid and well presented and it's a good unique take on the theme. I felt like you balanced challenge without having it too easy or frustrating. Good stuff.
Man this game is a delight - Enjoyed skim watching your stream of the jam in action too. Very fun. I think you might be onto a winner in this one. I feel like with a slightly more forgiving increase and tutorial it'd be an amazing experience. Great job man.
Man this is great, really enjoyable experience. Playing the melody at the shrine was really satisfying when I worked it out. Beautiful world, gorgeous atmosphere. Great submission.
Great stuff man, was worth playing this one through to the end. Don’t wanna post spoilers but was a very satisfying ending, albeit maybe ended a bit sooner than I hoped :p
Nice one. I found spamming the attack kinda dominates everything a bit too well, but I thought you did a great job overall. Great submission.
Nice work, this is a really great portal style game, and I think you did well with the level design considering the lack of time. Good job
Haha hilarious, on point with the latest memes. I laughed, I cried, I punched my hard work away.
Interesting concept, I almost didn't make it past the first game, was delighgted to discover there was more to go. The music was really awesome and I dug the style. Great job.
Got myself to carriage 10, I'm pretty bad at it :D Thought the art style was great and enjoyed the concept - def a unique approach here. Like your lil sound effects too. Great stuff.
Ah I really liked the feel of this game, I managed to save bobby which was good :D
I had a few issues while playing - text all disappeared on me in the tutorial mode, and the right click seems unreliable a lot of the time.
Thanks for sharing your game, great job.
Ah man I tried to get this one working, but I couldn't get past the story text after going into the building. Just kept freezing on me at that point sorry.
Man I'm going to come back to this one later, I really liked this one a lot - great work.
The art style is perfect for a game like this, the sound design felt just right. It took me a while to fully grasp the repeating time mechanic, but once you get it, it feels sweet. My brain really struggled to bring it all together, but when I finally completed each level I always felt super pleased.
Very great polish and a well scoped entry for LD. Great work!
Great lil horror concept. Really dug your artwork, but I couldn't quite work out the mechanics. I'm assuming space bar flips my view and I'm meant to iit the switches in the right order, but I wasn't quite sure how to determine what that was. Still, love the experience, thanks for sharing your game!
Nice work, I enjoyed myself and the changing weapons. Good stuff. Would have been sweet to have some death animations on those enemies. The record had some great capt america vibes.
Totally jealous of your leaderboard. I really wanted to get one going, but it was a bit too hard to work out within game jam time.
This game reminded me of 90s era PC platformers in a good way. I liked the loop/season mechanics. Great work on this one, a very unique take.
This is a very cool interpretation of the theme. I'll echo what people already said around the tutorial. I ended up getting a very obnoxious lineup and the public turned on me haha. My son (almost 1 year old) was dancing like crazy to the tunes - so excellent job there too haha
Ahh this is sweet. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. Very satisfying controls, I like the 3D pixel art vibes. The world needs more rollerskatinggames clearly haha, just feels so satisfying. My only criticism would be how long the game over screen takes before I can get back into the action after i inevitably get too excited and fly off the track. Great work!
Fantastic work here. It's impressive how much game you got together in such a short period of time. Very nice polish and attention to details. Great job. Congratulations!
Man, I got as far as the floating eyeballs. Man this game has a very challenging learning curve, was cool once I started getting the hang of it. Definately need to read those instructions first haha.
Wow awesome interpretation on theme, this is super unique and super hard! Wish it had sounds, but I reckon this is a pretty solid job. Feels like a really strong candidate for speed runs.
Wow guys what a fantastic art style. We toyed with making a rollercoaster where you might have to catch stuff you lose in the loops. Very fun and very excellent sound and audio design.
Great stuff here. The narrative elements were great, I really enjoyed the relationships that unfolded in the story. The mechanic of washing the glasses didn't ever feel like it got in the way of ready the dialogue.
Amazing fun, i can never go past a raccoon game, haha. Great polish on this one, it has a really great vibe. Congratulations!
Yeah sweet this game felt great. For some reason there's a heap of people that made roundabout games, but so far this one is my favourite. Love the theme. Out of interest, what did you guys use for your leaderboard - I really wanted to get one going in our game, but I ran outta time before I could get it worked out and the tutorials out there were pretty average.
Haha a lot of people went with roundabout games and they're all great. I loved that you leaned into the explosions :) Paris is a great setting for a game like this, that roundabout is terrifiying in real life haha. Great job!
Fun little game, couldn't work out what to do with the bee but did enjoy getting plumpy.
Omg getting the wings at the end just made it all the better. That is an incredible entry! The music and vo is excellent, the level design is fun - def got my into that Katamari Damacy mindset.
Excellent use of the theme, and currently the best game I've played all LD. Finished it and still was craving a loopin'.
haha yeah my brain is way too fried from so many late nights to do the memory thing. Love the vibe of this game, feels like a really good mobile game like others have mentioned. Great job a very polished submission!
Man I killed so many innocents haha. Could quite work out how to solve the case, but enjoyed the ride, very trippy game. Love your voiceovers, especially your sea lion guy.
haha I was on a roll getting all teh powerups then ran off the edge like a fool. Haha fun game and a great entry for LD. Enjoyed it.
Haha so many deaths on my hands, but I got an excellent rating. Very funny game, great entry
Wow really nice polish on this one. Feels like a fully flesh out game. I like the little programming puzzles. Great submission.
Ahh lovely, this was a nice experience. I like these medadtive narrative games.
hahaha if you place too many bombs it's possible to blow the box into an infinite loop, which is pretty on theme. Overall I enjoyed this. Great job
The art and animation is amazing, I got the escape ending. When I first got to old age and lost all my stats it was great. Haha. Great job.
Nice lil game.
The inventory mechanics were a bit tricky to work with, but I got there in the end.
I didn't manage to make it to the 30 parsnips, but was happy with my 9.
Awesome, a fellow theme park themed game - we almost did a rollercoaster game too before settling on a merry-go-round.
Had some trouble going off the track in teh loops, but seemed to fix it in fullscreen mode. I dug the simplicity of the choices in placing the right track which at first seemed too easy, then rapidly became much harder. A great entry all up, good job.
Ah man this game was really awesome, I wish I coulda got through it all. I never worked out how I send items back in time? I got as far as getting the key and gun, but couldn't work out what to do next. Really like the music and vibe.
Oh man I really enjoyed that a lot. Your character animation was fun. The puzzles and platforming felt challenging but always achievable. the restarts started to grate on me towards the end, but I was pretty chuffed when I finally finished the great.
Overall an excellent entry great stuff!
Ahh fun little tower defence. Interesting interpretation on the theme. Enjoyed it.
Okay launching myself into space was pretty epic. Eventually fell back into the ship haha. I almost never knew what I was doing, but it was fun exploring the game's mechanics through playing, reminded me of a lost era of video games in the early PC or C64 styles.
Got a flashlight, cable and some tools but could never work out what to do with them, or find the medical bay. Feels like I was just slightly missing some detail.
Good fun platformer here. I got a little frustrated at the controls, but I thought your level design struck a good balance.
Ahh this concept too me a while to get my head around. Very cool how the boxes just repeat their actions. Very challenging puzzle concept, but awesome once your brain starts to get it.
Ah came really close to making a lil life sim / time management game.
WebGL took ages to load, so I ended up going the download version.
The dying part of the game was a lil anit-climactic and cause it zooms in, it's hard to tell what you actually died from. but I enjoyed the little animations and random aspect of the events while balancing your stats.
Unfortunately I never made it to valentine's day cause I kept dying in my sleep :D
Ah this is a really fun idea. What a good lil twist on space invaders. Having the missed shots punish you is a fantastic idea and I think it really makes this just feel like such a strong complete package.
Oh no a clicker I'm doomed. I didn't realise unti I suddenly was hiring lil rats from HR. Bookmarked this one to play more later.
Ah nice and hard. This was great fun to play, I feel like I'll be back for some more.
Holy moly man, I can't believe this is a compo entry. Awesome music, excellent art, fantastic vibes. Very well done.
What an awesome art style - really loved it, such a delightful little game. I only survived 40 seconds, that pesky pillbug broke me.
Ah I almost did a music loops one.
I got a little confused by the way it's meant to work. saw the lil blue guy float past the menu, thought maybe i'd have to pause to get him or something weird, but couldnt' work it out.
The artwork and music are pretty sweet. I think you have a really fun primary loop here.
Took me a while to get the hang of the frogs, the mechanic of trying to get direct hits is great fun. and i loved building up the squad of little dudes, so I did feel a lil guilty sacrficing them for faster fireballs!
Nice little game for only 4 hours.
Ah I couldn't get past the second level, but I dig your direction on the concept/theme.
Almost missed the fullscreen thing - much better when the game actually worked :)
Great stuff, reminds me a lot of the VR game Transpose. The mechanic is a lot of fun.
Ah wanted to give this one a go. Tried to fire up my macbook pro to learn it's dead :(
