This game is great fun, probably the most fun I've had so far this jam! I love the gameplay, it's incredibly satisfying and I had a great time playing it again and again. The music also fits the vibe perfectly, same with the sound effects. All in all, this is an amazing game and I love it, will be watching out for a full release after the jam!
This game is awesome, I had a blast with the dice mechanics and deck building type gameplay. Reminded me a bit of Super Auto Pets, while still innovating on the idea and vibe. Really good job on this entry! I’m defo gonna keep my eyes peeled for more!
Nice game! I initially found the movement to be a bit tricky but I got used to it pretty quick, the guns were fun to use when I was finally able to get my hands on one. The combat is really hard but like the movement, very rewarding once you get good.
I think the AI might be a bit too accurate with their shots, unfortunately I kept getting shot from off screen :(
This was a really nice game though, I'm glad I got a chance to play it!
So cool that you were able to make this in 12 hours with so little source code, really impressive! The game was also really good, quite a lot going on for something so simple. I really liked the art, it's super simple but really well done and the colors work nicely together.
Great work!
I really enjoyed this game, I like how you have to devise a strategy to both trap your opponent and get as many flies for yourself as you can.
Unfortunately I was unable to play with a friend, which I bet would've been super fun! I still had a great time playing against the AI, though it couldn't beat me!
I think the art and audio for this game is really cute and really fits the vibe, you (and your daughters!) did a really great job with that!
Thanks for submitting this game, I had a lot of fun playing it!
Really nice character art! I liked the attack animations especially, it made the game feel very fluid. The movement in bat-form is also quite satisfying with all the bats following in a swarm. Good job!
I liked reading the dialogue, there was some really nice worldbuilding to investigate. Nice work!
I found this game to be really enjoyable. Controlling a swarm of fleas is such a creative idea! The way they handle feels perfect, like you're really controlling a hoard of bugs.
The levels are super well designed, they get quite tricky quite quickly and I found the challenge to be really surprising while still super fun.
The art is also beautiful! I think it fits the goofy vibe really well, and the little animations on the dog are really cute!
I really liked this entry, nice job! I hope you take this idea further, I'll be watching for an update or full release!
This might be my favourite game so far! I had such a blast playing it and was completely left wanting more. I cannot wait to see where you take this project in the future!
The aesthetic of this game is so beautiful, the art, music and sound effects all work together perfectly and are a joy to experience.
I loved the gameplay, it's simple but satisfying and yet gets quite challenging quite quickly. It's really fun!
Good work, I'm waiting for more!
Woah, this game is insanely cool! The cryptic instructions take a while to pick up but once you do, the game starts to become easier and easier to understand. It was such a fun journey to go on :)
The art stands out to me, it's incredible! It took me a while to even realise I was inside someone's head because of how long I spent focusing on other small details of the level. The UI too is crazy, I've never seen anything like it. I love how you've created a world, and a diagetic interface to fit inside of it and immerse the player in the game. So creative!
The audio is also really cool, really fits the vibe of the game, I love it!
Well done with this game, I'd happily pay good money for something like this.
Yo this game was awesome! It was really fun trying to match the colors and shapes to fit the clothes. The conveyor belts were really fun and the creatures are so cute! This is one of my favourites so far!
I really like the idea of taking over enemies as a parasite, it's quite a unique idea and it works really well. I'd be very excited to see where the idea can take the game in the future. Great work, I loved the art too!
This is a really cool idea for a game. The way the logic works reminds me a little of Noita. It's a really fun system to take some time to learn and it's quite fun once you start to make better machines. I had a really good time playing this one!
The art for the machine is really well done, it makes it a little more satisfying to interact with! Same with the audio, it makes the machine feel real and really adds to the whole experience.
I really like this game, I hope you continue to work on it!
This is a really cool idea. The charging mechanic is really creative and can definitely be used to take the game much further. You should stick to it!
I really like how the creatures are linked by the charging but still take damage and attack independently, it's a really interesting interaction and I really want to see more done with it.
Nice work!
This games neat! I love the voice acting, it's very fun! I did notice a little freeze when I shot for the first time but after that it was ok.
Nice work!
Solid Game, I enjoyed playing it like a puzzle - figuring out which items to use at each point of a level. Really pretty art too. Good job!
I really enjoyed this game, I find watching the little characters doing their jobs really satisfying. It's also got a ton of content for a game made for a jam, it's really impressive to be able to do so much in so little time.
The art is really pretty, I love the hand-drawn aesthetic and the little animations are quite nice.
Good job, I love this game - I'd definitely play again!
I really like this idea. I couldn't quite work out if the game had directional sound to tell me where the worms were but it's an incredibly creative idea and I think the idea could be expanded upon into a full game! Well done!
I loved this entry, I think the ability to shake the machine is really creative and fun. I love how long the level is, it makes it quite fun to try and keep as many of the creatures alive as possible. I wasn't able to keep the gold one alive though no matter how many times I tried :(
Overall this is a really good game, another of my favourites so far!
This is a really charming platformer, I was surprised each time a new mechanic was introduced, like the speed boosts and the extra-long purple shrooms. It must've taken a lot of effort to get all that done for the game jam.
The art is also really pretty, and the music and sound effects are really sweet and work well for the game.
I really like this game, great work!
I liked this one a lot, I managed to score 21! I really liked the art, it's really well done, I loved finding a new piece of food. They all had really charming animations, same with Shrimpy. Samson was also really cool looking, the teeth were very cool, but I thought the ones that were spiked on the underside would hurt me - that would have been quite cool I think.
Really good work on this game!
This game is awesome, I played it for ages to unlock everything. This idea would make a really nice mobile / idle game!
The art is beautiful, it's super clean and works perfectly with the gameplay. Same as the audio, the music is relaxing and the sound effects are satidfying.
Really good work on this submission, it's easily one of my favourites! I hope you take this idea further in the future, I'll be watching for more!
I love the art in this game, really creative use of ASCII. The animations on the player running and getting hit are super satisfying, as well as the enemies. The sound effects are also really good, I love how they fit the simple art and I think they sound great.
Overall, this is an awesome entry. It's one of my favourites so far I'd say, well done!!!
Really cool game, got very hard very quickly which is nice. Can't wait to try the post jam version!
The tech behind this is incredible, to be able to make a renderer AND a game for that renderer in just 48 hours is astounding! The game itself is still very fun and I enjoyed figuring out the puzzles a lot. Amazing job on this entry!
This is a cool game, it was quite fun to mess around with the little characters trying to build up a civilisation.
Nice work!
This is a awesome idea! It's very challenging but really rewarding once you get used to it.
The audio is super satisfying, it the sound effects fit the game perfectly and I found it really fun to listen to while I played. I love the music too!
The art also looks really good, the hand sprites and rope are super clean and stylised, which I love. And the 3D section is also really cool, it reminds me of The Lab I think - that Portal spin off.
Overall this is a really cool game and I loved playing it, well done!
This was a great game! I loved the physics on the branch as you walked along it, and the way it responds to you jumping on it. The art is lovely, and the music and sounds too - really cute! Well done!
This game was really fun, It took me a couple tries but I was able to defeat the Virus in the end.
I really like the animations on the player character, the combo looks really fluid and natural. Same with the running and jumping animations - they flow really nicely!
The boss was the right mix of challenging but not too punishing in my opinion, it was quite rewarding to fight it after I got a feel for it's attacks and patterns.
Overall, I think this is a really good entry and I had a blast playing it. Thanks!
I found this game to be really fun, the puzzles were quite hard but logical and I could get them done after a couple tries. I think one thing that could improve the game would be an "Undo" button, I found myself making silly mistakes right at the end of the levels and it was a little frustrating to have to do it all from the beginning each time.
The art is simple but pretty, it works well for the style of game. Same with the audio, the placing sound is super satisfying and the music is also relaxing. All of these features work great for a puzzle game like this one.
Good work! This game is great, I'll definitely be back to play it again!
I liked this entry, the voxel style stood out to me, I think it looks really good - though I do think the pixelized shader clashes a tiny bit.
The gameplay loop is quite fun, I had a good time watching over my crops although I died before I could harvest them. I think that was my fault though lol.
I think one thing that would improve the game is if you could build things that shoot at the creatures, like a turret or something - as I quite struggled to aim at them, and I was busy cutting down trees and stuff.
All in all, this is a really strong submission that I found quite fun and that was very pretty. Good work!
I really like this game, I hope you get a chance to take it further as I'd love to play more. The gameplay reminds me a bit of Super Auto Pets - which is really good, I love that game!
The art is really pretty, I like how characters get outlined when they're hovered with the mouse. The sprites are really well made too, it's some really impressive work! The music too is lovely, it really suits the atmosphere.
Good work on this Jam!
Ay this was a really fun one! I love the physics on the character, it felt incredibly satisfying to play. The platforming was well designed and it was good fun trying to figure out what to do at each stage. Well done!

I really appreciate the Feedback, my first job once this jam is over will be fixing the font! For now the best way to fix it is to play the game in Fullscreen. I'll try spice up the gameplay a bit too, I'll think on some ideas while the rest of the voting period plays out.
Thanks a bunch for all the positive reviews, it's really nice to hear <3
@brotherbrody Oops lol I'll get on that, thanks for letting me know!
@nazariglez
I'm defo gonna polish it up and fix the browser version, other than that I guess I'll see what ideas I have over the next week or two.
Right now I think I want a better tutorial for sure, and I'm thinking of adding multiple endings. So if you wanna check that out drop me a follow on itch or smth <3
Let me know if you have any ideas!
@pedryx @sbackman @lakea @patomkin @kaiynest @soloadventurergames
I've recently typed out a guide that should solve some of the issues caused by the terrible font. After the jam ends I'll take a look at fixing it but until then the guide should help explain what's going on.
If you get a minute please consider giving my game another try, I think it's worth it <3

I really enjoyed the vibes in this game. The music fit the atmosphere perfectly, same as the art. It felt so heartwarming to just walk around. I love this game, well done!
This game is awesome! I love the physics on the webs, it's really cool to interact with and try to keep it stable. The animation on the spider's legs is also incredibly satisfying.
I gave the Arachnophobia mode a go and I found it very funny! I'd hate to have missed the wonderful animations on the spider's legs.
This is a great game! A really nice entry!
This game has a really cool idea behind it. I think controlling both arms with two hands on the keyboard is really cool and something I haven't really seen before.
As a lot of people are saying, I had a lot of trouble cutting things - I was able to cut a tomato but from then on I couldn't cut anything else. An action key would definitely help this, though it could be hard with the control scheme already quite confusing.
I really liked the art and the Ik on the arms, it works really well and is quite fun to watch as you move your arms about. The music was also quite pleasant and fit the game nicely.
Well done with this submission! I'll come back and check it out once it's fixed up!
This was really fun, nice work!
I really liked the lighting, and how different colors blended together. It took me a while to get the hang of the gameplay but when I did it was quite fun, good work!
Really hard but rewarding, I loved the CRT shader too!
Really cool game! I think it could use some indestructible obstacles, that could discourage the player from hugging a wall all the way down - I found that to be quite an easy way to get really far. It is really well polished though and I had a great time playing it, nice work!
this game is so cool! The ability to grapple onto past souls is so unique and fun. It's great fun exploring the map though a bit too challenging for me - I will definitely keep coming back to this game, great job!
This game is super fun, I had a great time trying to get deeper and deeper. It gets really tense when the timer gets quicker and it makes for a really fun little challenge.
This game has a really interesting vibe, I had a great time exploring each level and seeing how each one differs. It was quite fun to figure out the little puzzles and I really enjoyed my playthrough. Great work!
I really liked the narrative of this game, using the coal to color the screen black was a really creative idea and not something I expected. The atmosphere was really cool and I'll definitely come back to try the other endings, I got number 2 on my fist playthrough!
