Very cool entry! I thought the rotating laser things looked impressive. Sounds and graphics also on point! I'm not an expert at this type of game though so I immediately got rekt lol.
I got duplicated at one point and there was two of me, then I got to move several floors at once. Really pretty game but it was a little too buggy for me to be able to finish my playthrough, which was a shame!
Super cute visually, but a little confusing since I saw wisps all around me and couldn't really understand where to go :( I got to a summoning circle though but I got yeeted from there immediately
It took some time to get used to it, and it started to get more fun once I memorized most combinations. Nice! But I looked away for a second after ran out of time, and I missed out on seeing my score ;_;
Such a polished little game, the art is 10/10 but my main issue was getting coordinated enough with the controls, I think it would have been nice to have some actions on the mouse as well!
Cute! I liked the graphics and the lil background music. I got a bit confused when I tried to click some of the circles though and they wouldn't respond properly.
Small, complete, and fun. What more could I ask for? Ah yes, pissing guy. Glad he's dead now. Grateful for the predictable controls but wondering what the point of a restart button would be for this game specifically since you can't really get stuck
Nice idea! I got a bunch of fish (bombs?) at first since I thought that was the trash and it took me a couple of respawns to figure out that that wasn't the case lol. The actual trash was a bit hard to see, and then when I came back up to the boat and got to the menu I was a bit confused on what to do. Nice graphics!
Fun little game and the sounds are lit! :D The only issue I had was that it took me a while to notice you had to release other buttons in order to press another, so I was moving around for a good 30 seconds wondering why it wouldn't work as expected.
Fun and beautiful graphics! I would have liked to be able to continue seeing the stats throughout the turns since I kept forgetting. But other than that super satisfying to play. I think extra visual effects could really improve the experience too
Really polished, super satisfying to pick up the humans and what a fun take on the theme! The only thing that bothered me a little was the shaking when the demons attacked each other, felt a bit excessive- but that might just be a me thing (sensitive eyes ;_;)
Adorable game, and also yay for starting out as a duck. I had some shaking on the screen which I was not sure if it was intentional or some kind of pixel-perfect jitter artifact. The particle effects were super cool
Fun game! I think the luck factor might be a bit excessive when it comes to the modifiers. Even if I play optimally, I end up getting rekt quite a few times. Also, I ended up restarting many times before even making a first move, because I see that the big numbers are too far away from me. Some movement to the numbers themselves would be a nice and not too hard addition, in my opinion.
Also, just saw you are in middle school?! Or maybe the bio is not up to date, but regardless if you are that young you have some REALLY amazing talent, I'm impressed!
Finally got around to this! I love the graphics but I probably mentioned that on stream already at some point? and I really like the wind vfx in particular. I just wish the game felt a little bit "faster" but I wouldn't know an obvious way to do that that wouldn't result in ships crashing a LOT more
This is my type of game! I had issues with the second room though, after getting it wrong on accident the used numbers didn't show up anymore, and I couldn't make a valid sum with the remaining ones, so I got stuck
Really cute idea! I suppose you always have to jump on the bees though, right? I was having a hard time getting a second platform to jump to, because I also needed the bees underneath the character. But still really promising :)
I apologize to my customer for not providing a HELLA sturdy creature, rather only a regular sturdy one :( oh and also bookmarked the DAW you used for the music. Seems like what I'm looking for so gonna give it a whirl!
I loled through the entire thing :D love the names and the dialogue, and the sounds, and the choices of music... I know it's not technically *your* music but it was so funny how you combined it all lol
Fun concept! Because most of the interesting stuff (ie story) seems to happen in the "replies" after I select an answer, I would have liked text to be faster to display or have a button to display the whole thing without skipping, which is what I accidentally did a couple of times.
Nice concept, classic arcade feel :) I think the coins (?) take too long to spawn though, I'd consider making the interval shorter or spawning several at the same time
Super fun! I got 425, but my fingers tend to cramp right away. It took just the right amount of time to get used to the controls though. Super fun mechanic, and you could probably reuse it easily if you feel like moving away from the summoning theme
Idk why it made me think of Etch a sketch :) is it inspired by the game of life? I couldn't tell what the logic was exactly, it would be nice to see more action too!
As soon as I saw this I had to play because what a coincidence! I also have ducks in my game, it is also a square window and in pixel art :D and yet we still have two completely different concepts, which is fun! I think the only issue with this is the acceleration is just too little - it should be a lot snappier because otherwise it can get a bit painful fairly quickly
The graphics on this are awesomeeeee but even more than them the visual effects (oh guess they count as graphics but you know what I mean). A bit hard for me, since I usually play other genres, but very cool still
"Please dispose of the creatures in the designated trashcans" hahaha! I like this game but the big issue I've had is that at least for me I could only use left shift and with my hand shape (I guess?) it was very difficult to do a dash. I would consider dashing in some other way, but apart from this the game is really cute and I'd absolutely keep playing :D
Really cute graphics and color palette, and the particle effects are great as well. The game itself does feel a bit slow and floaty and could maybe benefit from some tweaks there
Super cute game! With more visual and sound effects it could be a mobile banger. I would also increase the difficulty a bit since it's quite easy to not fill up the board.
This is so funny lol. Love the voices but most of all I love the answers/hints it's just flawless. I'd have spent a weekend just thinking those up. I'd change nothing except maybe put an animation or something on the questions button since at first I couldn't understand where to click!
