How can such a masterpiece be made in just 72 hours? This game was crazy good, easily the highest quality game I've seen this jam. By a mile.
The depth, the concept, the visuals, the voice acting/sound design, everything was so perfect. I'm just amazed, incredible job!
Really fun game! Also, I managed to break your record on my second attempt: slaythespire.png
This game was amazing and I love it! The visuals, the sound design, the concept, the responsiveness, everything was perfect. Are you planning to turn it into a full game?
Also, playing it made me very hungry, what I would do for a non-demon burger right now..
This game feels fully polished, and I had a blast beating it! I may try challenge mode another time.
Reminds me of Inscryption, both with the vibes, and also with how much of a full game it feels even though you made it in 72 hours, and I'm very excited to see how you're planning on expanding it in the future, if there's a plan for that. I would definitely buy a full release on Steam, it's an absolute masterpiece!

Fun game! Haven't played typeracer in a while, so I struggled a bit, but after some attempts I managed to get 4 recipes done. I'm not the fastest of typers, but I really enjoyed the game!
Neat little puzzle game and funny ending! Hope your wife also enjoyed the game! :)
Easily my favorite game so far. It's crazy how it's a compo game, it would be very impressive even for a jam game. Good job!
Really fun game! Managed to get to floor 13 on my second attempt. Once you see the spells, they feel surprisingly intuitive. Although I pretty much only used fire as it felt the best to me. Great work!
Really nice take on Arkanoid, loved it! I managed to get over 100k points. pong.png
The summoning mechanic is very unique and something I don't remember ever seeing anywhere. The polish of this game is also crazy good, including UI, and despite puzzle games being my favorite genre and me playing them a lot, some levels still got me stuck and made me wonder for a while. Very great design and an amazing entry!
Very fun game! At first I was a little lost on what I should be doing, but after trying to understand the books a bit more and learned how the drawing works, this game quickly became an amazing puzzle game! Great job!
Really fun and addictive game! Managed to make it to top 8 as of now. May grind it some more later.highscoreinfenral.png
@colisan hearing that motivated me to grind the game a little more, and I managed to get it! 600 is still really far away though. highscoreinfernal.png
I've had an issue with the game not accepting my username anymore, it said the name was already taken. So unfortunately I'm taking up 2 space on the leaderboard now. I don't know if you can manually delete my lower score. Also, I'm coming for Nasth.
infernalleaderboard.png
@colisan Maybe the router was restarted or something then. And thank you! Good luck with your climb today!
Also it's crazy how simple yet how addicting this game is.
It's quite a gory interpretation of the topic, but I love it! It's quite a lot of fun, managed to get to 1k. Although I feel the difficulty ramping isn't enough, even later on, it's easy to just go and go on without losing. Had to stop playing in order to lose.
Aside from the difficult not ramping, I was having a blast playing this game! Very interesting concept and also great models! Good job!
Amazing game, I've never seen a similar concept. Really well tought out and executed! I managed to beat it, although I was stuck for quite a while at the left side. For whatever reason I didn't think of digging in the upper left platform, and I'm pretty sure I dug out all the souls on the bottom.
The summoning sound effects killed me, really well done! It'd be interesting to see an extended version of this game, because it's a lot of fun to play.
Took me a few attempts, but finished it! Reminded me of Raft with the hooking resources part. The boss fight felt really epic with that music playing.
Very cute and fun game! The Axolotl is so precious! Also I'm a sucker for dice games in general.

I don't know what's more frustrating, the spike maze level where you have to get through the maze with 2 cultists, and they keep desyncing from each other and going in different directions even though the inputs are the same, or this troll slime that decided to block the gap after I spent over half an hour getting here, staying there, and refusing to move anywhere.
Despite all the rage inducing parts this game is bringing in, it's very solid and I love the idea! Shame I wasn't able to beat it, but this slime is really just messing up everything.

"How much do you enjoy driving around in a city in a video game?"
salmoning.png
Seriously though, driving in games feels so therapeutic and addictive, and that's true for this game too. It was a very enjoyable experience to just drive around for like an hour. Great entry!
Absolutely love the art style and the music. They're super solid.
It's been quite a long time since I last had to draw equilateral triangles, so I struggled a little, same with the square one. But somehow I managed to dig up the knowledge buried deep in my brain, and managed to draw the triangles, squares, and hexagons without needing to look up anything.
Amazing concept for a game, and thank you for bringing me back some forgotten knowledge! Great job!
An amazing and well written game! I'm really surprised you managed to put this much polish into this game in only 3 days. Very impressive you also managed to write together such a neat plot as well, and make the graphics and audio also this good.
Great work!
It was a very unique and interesting game! Sort of reminded me of times when back in school I wasn't confident what part comes next during dancing, so I just try to mimic others and not create too much attention. :sweat_smile: Amazing visuals and sound design too!
@nickelfoolish Glad you had fun! I haven't heard of Little Alchemy personally, just looked it up after you mentioned it, and I can see how this reminded you of that game.
@gnum Thank you!
@kaliuresis Congrats on summoning the pickles! I actually didn't know about the diagonal sprinting, that's an interesting find, seems like it's an accidental feature. I think you used the knife properly, it's meant to be used by just touching things with the blade while holding it.
@hsg-gringo I love Potion Craft and it definitely gave me some inspirations when I was deciding how to give the user more control over what they summon. I see your point with the grindiness, I also felt a little like that when playtesting it, but with not much time left until deadline, I didn't dare to rebalance the game, as the calculation and planning process already took a while.
@projesh Glad you enjoyed the experience this way! I originally had the "hints" part when you open the menu display some sort of directions, but I couldn't make it in a way that wouldn't give away too much and I felt it would take away from the game. So I'm glad you enjoyed the exploration without handholding! And yeah, the knife may not be the most intuitive, but once you understand how it works, it's funny to kill bats with while standing still.
@zablas Glad you enjoyed it! I was actually thinking of making it into a more polished full game if the feedback was good on this jam version.
@denkithegamer Congrats on getting the pickles, and glad you enjoyed the experimentation aspect of it! The knife was kind of a struggle, at first I wanted to add stabbing to the game, but the animations kept completely messing up and we were running out of time, so we settled for worse knife mechanics to polish other aspects of the game. It was mainly to make killing the bats easier, as you don't have to aim the rock if you use the knife. But I agree, knife would definitely be the thing I'd rework if I had more time.
Wow, thank you everyone for the feedback! :blush:
@cmakota Yeah, the movement I would definitely rework when polishing this game. To start out I just needed a simple movement script, and it didn't feel it would've been worth putting more effort towards improving the movement when the deadline was soo tight.
@jack-bingham I agree, and other have pointed out the knife having awful mechanics. It was in the list of planned improvements for the game, but other things had higher priority, and we ran out of time before being able to fix the knife.
@oznarox You can throw the rocks and kill animals with it, then use those for summoning!
@captainspacecat Glad you enjoyed the game! I was also thinking of items as vectors while making it. Enjoy the pickles!
@vodzik With the knife if you stand in a spot, you can actually have bats just fly into the knife and farm them that way. But I agree, I was thinking of adding a feature to be able to grab bats by hand, but the short jam time made it so that our code was complete spaghetti and such a basic thing would've been a pain to implement with our code structure.
@lestat I realized that the last day when the game finally became beatable, but there were so many things to polish that I didn't have the time to replan the route to get to the end.
@human-writes-code Have you been playing it in the browser? From what I've noticed, the browser version has way higher mouse sensitivity, even though they're built from the exact same project. And thank you for the feedback! I was planning on extending it and polishing it after the jam, and more feedback to the user was planned (showing the vector of the X's movement, having an actual grid and displaying object's values, and recipes saving in the book so you can look them up). So it was definitely something I was considering, the time just didn't allow for that.
@pelmanable @nomus @someone @skyler-newsome Thank you for the feedback and great job getting the pickles!
@smidgens Thank you for the feedback! About the graphics, I started learning modelling and blender just 3 days before the jam, so honestly low poly is pretty much all I could do in a timely manner, but I'm glad it turned out well! I do have some methods planned to make the game less grindy, unfortunately I didn't have the time to rebalance the game before the deadline.
It kinda feels like a roguelike battle royal. Love this take on the genre!
Amazing game! As a chess enthusiast, this game got me curious what it would be like if there was a chess variant (maybe there's one I don't know about) where both players have a given certain amount of points, and they could "shop" pieces based on their value, and place them themselves. Would be very interesting to see what top players would come up with, and how the meta would change based on the countless amount of strategies it would introduce.
Sorry for the long thought, but that's what this game made me wonder about. Loved it visually and conceptually, and it was a lot of fun to play!
Very short, but it was fun! I absolutely love the concept, and would love to play an extended version if you're planning on making one.
It seemed you have implemented quite a deep system (with the spawning of different items), and the goal didn't require you to utilize part of it as much. It's a jam with a deadline, so that's completely fair. But it shows you have something to expand upon, as the system is already there.
Great job!
Made it to the top 10! (Probably not for long.)
Very addictive and fun game to play!
Such a simple concept and rules, but it works super well. This is some amazing game design, great job!
Sweet and short game. Even though I'm team fork, I did enjoy the experience. Good job!
Very neat game, would love to play a longer version! Managed to get 100+ of the green stuff and got all upgrades.
It's surprisingly addictive. Great work!
It was a really relaxing experience, kinda felt like a mediation session. The beats were really nice as well!
It's a shame it can't be rated in the audio category. Great job!
Managed to get the ultimate husbando! It was hilarious and also made me sad for people who went down the rabbit hole of gacha games.
The art is top notch too, great job!
This game feels like an out-of-body experience. It's very relaxing and something I would've never expected to see. Good job!
The graphics look so polished and are amazing! I managed to get all the recipes unlocked. page1.png page2.png page3.png
Interesting idea! Although the spins feel very slow. Managed to get a few ponies:
ponies.png
As a rhythm game enthusiast, I absolutely loved this game! For some reason though I didn't seem to be able to get 100%, even though I didn't notice myself missing. Is there accuracy aside from just missing/hitting? But I managed to get 99% on normal on both levels.rhythm1.pngrhythm2.png
Had a lot of fun! The first two girls were quite easy, but Manat proved a real challenge. After quite a few attempts I finally managed to beat her too, with quite a lot of health remaining. Loved the visuals, and also, I filled out the form! monsterdatewin.png
Such a relaxing and fun game. Great job! The ending killed me :joy:
Really neat concept! Got me curious if the strongest team could defeat the strongest summonable boss. I'll need to experiment with some team compositions.
Really fun game! Although for the life of me I can't draw a star with a mouse while dodging, but that's just a skill issue on my part.
The game itself is really unique and very enjoyable.
@markais Ohhh, for whatever reason I wasn't thinking of drawing the star like that, neither the plus sign. I was trying to copy it the way the enemies are, which made it a lot harder. Thank you for the tips!
The art style is completely gorgeous! And really love the idea too of moving the panels around to solve the puzzles.
Really nice game! Playing it at night, I got quite freaked out at first when the demon started appearing and I was panicking while trying to banish it. The audio and visuals are both very neat, along with the whole concept!
Really interesting mechanics with the card placing and trying to plan your turn based on neighbors. Visuals were also very nice and I liked that you gave the player a decision at the end on which Satan they want to summon based on the strength of their deck.
This game really scratches the itch when it comes to my guilty pleasure of clicker/idle games. Surprisingly satisfying (although short) game, and an interesting take on the concept.
It's a really fun take on scrabble, love it! The resonancy concept brings in some balance, as you can't spam the same high score words over and over again and you have to adapt to the context.
This is such an addictive game, I absolutely love it! I'm a dice fan, so this game really managed to suck me in. I almost managed to get 10k points, here's my record:
diemancer.png
Great job on this game, it just plays so well.
Didn't expect to see Ace Attorney in this jam, but here it is.
I loved how you incorporated the concept of summoning into this game, and the humor was also on point! Great job!
I just love the doodle graphics, it looked clean and well polished. As others said, the puzzles weren't challenging in particular, but I think that's completely fine for a game jam where you don't have as much time to get player feedback and adjust the difficulty.
This game is working way too well. I just booted it up, clicked, saw the notes coming, and as soon as I was about to hit one, my cat jumped on the desk and stood in front of the monitor. I put him on the floor, restarted, and he again jumped in front of the monitor. This game is too powerful. He's again in front of me as I'm typing.
The game was fun to play, I love rhythm games, so I really enjoyed this one too! Great job!
The mood and graphics are top notch! Really loved the addictive gameplay as well. Great job on this entry!
The platforming part is fun, although I'm unsure what I would do about the boss. Is there anything else you can do aside from moving and jumping? I was trying to press different buttons, but none of them seemed to do anything. Some sort of hints for the controls would be nice.
Fun game, although I suck playing with a controller, so it was a little bit of a struggle. Still great concept!
Had a lot of fun playing, and I find it hilarious how the zombies lunge themselves at the summoners.
I'm loving the idea and the decisions you need to make. You can play it greedy and try to combine into a more powerful beast, but it may backfire as it may perform worse when it comes to the quests.
Gotta go!
I was stuck at the beginning for a short while until I realized that you couldn't disarm coworkers after they began the shorttalk (I didn't even know they began it.) But after a while, I realized how the game worked and it was quite fun actually.
Really enjoyed this game. The feeling of power you get when you get reborn as a stronger block is crazy, especially the last one. I don't actually know if you can die as the last one, I was maxing agility and all contracts kept getting beaten in like a second (I don't remember if I even took damage ever as the big block), and after a while the game ended up freezing.
Regardless, it's a really fun game. Good job!
Really loved the game, managed to beat it! I love how it had just the right amount of challenge, where it wasn't easy, but it also wasn't frustrating either. Well, the anti grav level was a bit frustrating, but it was still fine. Very innovative mechanics, great job!
I opened the game, heard the music in the menu, checked on the site if it was custom made, and already gave the 5 stars for the audio before even playing the game. :joy:
The visual were amazing, although as someone who's native language isn't English, I found the text based riddles very difficult. Still had fun nonetheless, and the atmosphere was amazing!
A small tip: I saw the camera clipping through the walls when I was in like a 45 degree angle into them. I also had that in my game, and it's a super easy fix. Just click on the camera(s) in the editor, and lower the "clipping plane: near" to as little as you can. Don't get me wrong, it doesn't take away anything from the game, but I thought I'd let you know about this very quick 5 second fix.
Really love the idea! Brawled through my way of a lot of skeletons and there were only a few left, but unfortunately the game ended up crashing. It's a really smart and fun way of matching the "summoning" theme, would be funny to play it with other people in a battle royal.
It reminds me of playing Binding of Isaac while having orbitals. Quite fun. Although I feel the controls would be a lot more precise if it had keyboard controls and not mouse. That may also just be me being bad with the mouse though.
I really liked the idea, and it was fun to play! The one issue I had is that once you get to the point that you can spawn hundreds of rats in 2-3 seconds, spawning a lot of them really takes a toll on the game's FPS. Nonetheless, it was a fun game to play and I had a great time!
I got an invincibility bug, where I had 0 health but I didn't die, no matter how much I tried, so I couldn't get back to the lobby. Also I spent like 5 minutes trying to find something, as the area is open and people can wander off.
Aside from these, it's a cute game with a nice art style and good sound quality.
The art style is so cute! The game made me felt like I was sewing together Pokemons and sent them to war.
Really fun puzzle game, although I also got stuck with getting the rock up in the blue room.
A really fun game, makes me wish there was more of it! Also it's really impressive you made it with your own engine, really love the minimalistic graphics! They're pleasant to look at.
I was a fun game! Got the good ending on the first try!
burger.png
I really love the visuals, they are very pleasant to look at. Around Sunday the mutants started looking really cursed, that was awesome.
There were some issues with animals registering clicks though. Sometimes I had to click literally over a dozen times for my click to be registered, and I tried clicking in different spots.
Loved this game, it's so addictive! Wish there was more. I even replayed it just because somehow this simple concept of drawing something and trying to get it as accurate as possible while under serious time pressure is really fun for me. Great job!
Really loving the game so far! It's very clever, although I'm stuck at trying to find the 3 items to tribute. I'll try again tomorrow, but just thought I'd leave the feedback here, so I won't forget.
I'm quite curious about the endings.
Cute game! Do all levels require you to use all the arrows? In most of them I had quite a few leftover, and I'm not sure if I solved them the intended way.
@antonion In that case I managed to beat all levels with 3 stars! :tada:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aeqlfwx2pkk
I went over 500 meters in that bag, and it still took less time than finding my keys irl.
@0x-void-x0 Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
Yeah, these kind of games require quite some patience and can be quite rage inducing. I didn't plan to show the bar normally, as I feel that can take an element away from the game, which is relying on one's sense of time in order to estimate the jumps. But I definitely see that the bar does help too, glad you found the easy mode useful!
@elian-geser Thank you for the feedback! I also had someone who playtested it say that for example the second level was more fun and could've been first. My idea with the first one was that it didn't have any fancy mechanics, so it would be a tutorial, although I guess I made the jumps there a bit more precise, as I wanted to ensure the player pretty much masters it before adding more mechanics. But yeah, I do agree that I may have overdone it, and the first one should've been easier.
@philocode Thank you! Looking back the charge time is really longer than it should be. Probably having it half this long would be better. Glad to hear that you think it does Jump King justice!
@toupaks Thank you for the kind words! I'm also the type of player that whenever there's a challenging game, I'm too stubborn to let it beat me, and I keep pushing, it just feels fun to me. Very glad you enjoyed it!
@wheelsx the controls are displayed when pressing esc, but I do see your point that I could've displayed them better on the screen in the first area as a tutorial. Thank you for the feedback, that's definitely something I would add if I were to redo this game!
The varied difficulty comes from enabling "easy mode" in the escape menu, and also unlocking all checkpoints without needing to reach them, so if you get stuck at a part you don't want to do again, you can skip it.
@aveezavr there's one if you enable easy mode when pressing esc.
Thank you everyone for the feedback!
@monogatari you can have the charge bar displayed if you enable easy mode (in the pause menu after pressing esc). I do agree with faster charging though, others also mentioned in, and I too agree that I should've made charging to full like 1 second instead of 2. Glad you liked the cutscene! c:
It's a very unique and fun game! Finished the story and played arcade a little, and was planning on grinding arcade for hopefully a perfect score, but there are some impossible cases that ruin the run, getting one that refers to itself happens quite often for me (the 3 here), and sometimes the number refers to a letter that's doesn't even exist (the 6 here). issue.png
Other than that, it's a very fun experience! I don't know if you're planning to patch the impossible ones, but if you do, let me know!
It's a really unique game and I loved playing through it! Also it had a nice twist in the end.
One issue I had though was that once you get to the right side of the "map", travelling there start feeling really slow, and with my luck (had around 8-10 squads die there, I was unlucky and pretty much always chose the wrong way), I feel around half an hour of my playtime was just waiting for the squad to make it there over and over again, without much player interaction, just to immediately choose the wrong way on the next node. I wish there was a way to speed it up, or have a minigame you can play to pass the time.
Aside from that, I really enjoyed the game, and it's a creative way to track progress to have the player use random stickers, and assign a meaning to them, marking out the traps and safe ways with them.
Great job!
It has some really nice vibes, I befriended the cat!
I absolutely love the music and the style, my record is a little above 200k!
I love the music, and the artwork is also gorgeous. I needed to read the comments to realize one could jump, at first I though that was an issue with the game, but starting it fully over, I realized it was displayed on the screen at one point. After that I finally managed to deliver a pizza in an adequate quality.
Also, it's interesting how you and I both had the same story idea, and even the intro is almost the same. It felt a bit weird hearing the intro because of that.
It's a really fun concept, and the execution was on point too. I had to replay it a few times to try to check multiple ways to fail something and also get them right. Great job!
I'd just like to let you know that I cannot find any links or downloads to the game, neither is it embedded, so in its current state nobody can play it.
It felt like playing "There is no game", I guess that's where the inspiration must've come from. At one point I was thinking "maybe the developer was preparing for the doors theme, and wanted to go with that anyway", and you did in fact confirm my suspicions. It was a really fun little puzzle experience though, great job!
I did speedrunner things. It was a blast though trying to find new strats (like going diagonal because it's faster, sticking to moving platforms to skip sections, double jumping at platform ledges), but in the end I managed to find the perfect strat. speedrun.png
It's quite good for a first 3D prototype if you only started developing a month ago. The atmosphere and the vibe were really on point, and despite me not understanding French, I still felt that what was being said must've been some... Well, deep thoughts. Would love to go through the experience if you do the English translation.
It's also great that for your first jam you've already estimate the scope in a way that you could finish it in time. I definitely had big issues with that back when I first participated in a jam, and it ended in an incomplete rushed mess.
Great job!
@mauzart I replayed it with the translation now and wow. I absolutely love the thought provoking inner dialogue. It's relatable on so many levels, and it indeed got me to just sit still and let it sink in during a hasty day. I loved it!
Simple, yet very fun and addicting gameplay. The art style is also really great! This is my high score so far: highscoredropdeep.png
If this game doesn't get 1st place in every category, and then GOTY, I don't know what will. Great job forsenE
As someone who loves playing Tetris, this game is absolutely amazing and my favorite entry so far! It's a game that I will probably play even after the jam is over, just because it feels so addicting and fun. Sometimes the Tetris muscle memory takes over for a brief second to ruin it all as I want to place the piece how you normally would, but that's on me.
Great job on the game, here's my high score so far: sirtet.png
I could've played on, but I accidentally pressed left one too many times.
A very fun and addictive game. Once the upgrades get out of hand, it's so satisfying harvesting tens of thousands of dollars in seconds. Wish I could play it more, but unfortunately after a while it becomes a slideshow due to all the items spawning, and when landing on a planet worth $100+million, the game just freezes.
Regardless, a very fun and enjoyable game! Really feeds the brain dopamine.
Good job!
Incredible level design, and a lot of polish! I'm impressed by how you managed to create all this little puzzle rooms with such a great level layout as well, and execute it with such quality solo in just 2 days. Hat's off to you, great job!
Really fun game! This is the theoretical maximum score, right? signalback.png
Great minds think alike!
Really loved the music and how it changed with the wave! I beat it a couple of times, although my highest score is only 59. Probably a skill issue on my part, but it felt quite difficult at the end to scrape together a few loops, let alone get a full chain. Regardless, it was a ton of fun playing this game, and to see an idea similar to ours realized in 3 dimensions. I can see myself coming back to it to try and get a new high score. The visuals are amazing as well, and overall, it's a fun game to play. Great job!
I'm here to tell everyone how great I am because I beat the game.
I really enjoyed this game, I'm a fan of multitasking games where it gets overwhelming, so I definitely do have a bias though. Great entry!
Damn, I missed the announcement of StS3, didn't even know it was releasing this week! Really fun game, I love how you incorporated signal into this by giving the cards two different effects.
@lingzhao and @jo-bettaque glad you enjoyed it! About the hitbox, yeah, the shape of a U.F.O makes it a bit tricky to fit through gaps, the shift/dash mechanic was made to compensate for that issue. On a 2nd thought, a spherical player would've probably felt more forgiving.
@kremlebot Sorry, it was my first time ever trying to compose music, and it's not a field I've ever been involved in.
@rhookx Thank you for the review! I'm definitely checking out your game on the concept, curious to see about a cousin game! I was also thinking of making the music adapt to the wave, but I feared it would get too annoying. Maybe I really should've explored that idea a bit more rather than just dismissing it. Thank you for the feedback!!
@oradimi @tkap1 @coda-highland @echo-team Thank you for the constructive feedback! I also realized the game was a bit slow, but unfortunately last day was quite hectic and didn't have the time to fine tune the pace as much as I would've liked. Definitely not an excuse though, it probably would've already made a difference to allow the player to speed up the game with the press of a button. A missed opportunity for sure, I 100% agree with that criticism.
Really fun game with stunning graphics! I only lost 271 ships on the way.
I don't know if this was the intended way, but on the last level, I just farmed up 100+ money (while bringing some food), and didn't need to use the 2nd set of fishing hut and market.
Overall, very high quality game, good job on this entry!
I do have a big bias, as lidar technology and self-driving cars were what I wrote my thesis work about years ago. So I absolutely loved this game! It was executed beautifully, like I loved how staying in one place gave more and more details about the environment, and the entire concept, and in general it was a neat experience.
Love the humor! The puzzles were great too, it was fun trying to optimize the levels and use as few items as possible.
This is a brilliant concept. The amount of information is little overwhelming at first, but after some gameplay, it begins feeling more intuitive and natural.
Good job!
Amazing game! It feels so polished, the music, art, gameplay, everything feels so smooth. Managed to beat all 3 songs on very hard, it was a really interesting and enjoyable take on the rhythm game genre!
Great job on this incredible entry! The art style and the music were both top-notch, like genuinely, and the gameplay itself was super unique and creative too, loved everything about this game!
So far easily the highest quality game on this jam I've played so far.
Very addicting speedrunning game. Managed to get 3:19, which I'm satisfied with. Shaving off another 45 seconds seems insane.
The one level that I found more frustrating and feeling somewhat unfair (probably a skill issue on my part) is the one near the end, where there are rotating blades, each after two sets of spikes, following by some enemies. There must be a way to do that part consistently, but I haven't found it, so getting an unlucky starting cycle there just killed a lot of my attempts. Again, probably a skill issue, but I found that when the blades were aligned in a bad way and you had to "stall" for them to move, I wouldn't have the chance to make it to the other side, clear out enough enemies and move out of the way of the rotating blade.
Despite that one frustrating level though, I really enjoyed the game and grinding for a better time! It tickles the speedrunner itch in my brain.
Really love the concept and the execution here! It took a couple of attempts to understand how it really worked (at first I didn't register that the right side changed speed, thought it was choosing between different audios, so I was lost on that).
But this game was a blast, amazing work!
Really neat game! Got 4 endings (sad, mushrooms stolen, crazy, and good). Love how there are multiple win/lose conditions!
No, **YOU DID IT** and **You're great**!
Took a couple of attempts to beat, but I really loved it. The graphics and sound design were amazing, and it was in the optimal way of challenging, where it didn't feel too easy, I was on my toes at the end still, but it didn't get frustrating either. So great job!

As a Balatro enjoyer, I absolutely love this game! The art style is amazing as well, and the game feels very polished.
Great job on this incredible entry!
Did you playtest it to see if this was beatable? I only need material and the finger left to complete the ritual, and even though I have space in my inventory, and I know where both of those are, I don't seem to be able to pick them up, even though I'm clicking on them. (I do have a knife too.)
The audio is also missing, or at least I haven't heard any.
Visually it's gorgeous, and the art style is absolutely beautiful though.
Got the key and finished the game! It was a really neat concept, the art style was gorgeous! I started getting invested in the story. The puzzle elements felt a bit off at times though, but overall a neat experience!
It was fun and a bit challenging, took a couple of attempts to beat it.
I did notice that sometimes some meteors disappeared from the scans, even though I only used the scan when it was green. I saw it coming, then next scan that same meteor was no longer visible, and then it hit me. Maybe that's intended and there's just a big enough chance to detect a meteor, but it sometimes can miss it.
Regardless, great entry!
It was short but sweet. The red cat in the image really looks like my cat at home, so I felt extra protective.
The rat in the end was adorable. I loved the concept of only seeing a few angles, and trying to figure out which camera was where in the maze, and figuring out the rest from that limited information.
Amazing concept and execution!
First attempt: I hear the creepy voices, panic, keep running away completely freaked out, contemplating on quitting because the voices are just so scary, and I end up running into a dead end. Even more panic. Incredible experience with a big spook factor.
Then I retried it at least 8 times after finding the tower, it didn't get any less scary. For some reason things started happening that didn't before, like random jumpscares at places where it didn't happen before. I don't know if these happen after certain number of attempts, random chance, or I just missed the trigger spot the previous times, but they completely caught me off-guard.
I couldn't quite find where to go after I got the message to go south. I went south a lot of the times, one time I managed to get another message to pop up (I don't know how), the other times it didn't.
An amazing experience for horror game fans! The sound design is also really good and unsettling, great job on this entry!
