This is one of those game entries that just surprises you in the best way. The unique twist you include between the crystals and the platforms is an added difficulty I wasn't expecting! Makes gameplay surprisingly challenging, but so much fun. Loved this one, great job on the game :)
One of my favorite entries so far <3 This was so much fun, I love the art style, the game play, 'em tiny spoopy alien teeth, pretty much everything about it - I sure hope you guys get to eventually make this into a steam game, or something. Following on itchio too, now :)
Mr Fluffy needs its on adventure! This game is a hell of a lot cuter as you play it, loved it :)
Short, yet lovely and fun game :) Love the retro feel, loved the gameplay.
Loved it! So much fun :)
I think I died more times than I would dare to admit, but I had a lot of fun haha. Great work!
Downloaded and couldn't play :( It says it's not compatible with my windows (I am guessing it requires Win 64bits or something) So sad, I would have loved to check it out, it looks great!
That was unexpectedly fun! I'm not all that great jumping while under pressure haha, but I enjoyed the challenge
I don't mind there's no audio on this build, gameplay was quite fun and artwork was great :)
Beautiful pixel work, fantastic audio as well - level design felt a tad unfair at times. Great entry, tho! :)
I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but I must admit the dialogue was pretty hilarious! You should share on Twitter so more people get to experience it too :)
One of the cute surprises from the LDJAM. Artwork is quite adorable, it all seems rather intuitive so it makes it fun from the get-go, only thing to mention is that sometimes clicking feels a bit off. Otherwise, great game!
Game crashed at the start, it was a bit confusing at first (I'm guessing the idea of a tutorial would be helpful). Other than that, I loved the art direction and the pixel art :)
I really enjoyed it! Even tho it was my first time playing anything like this, it wasn't as difficult as I thought it was going to be (I'm not as gracefully coordinated as I should be, haha) Fun game :)
Great mood, loved the pixel art - only nitpick was the camera movement. It felt unfair going up and running into 3 different enemies at once, other than that, I enjoyed it :)
Loved this cute little game! It becomes a bit too chaotic with everyone throwing coins back at you at the end, haha - but so much fun :)
The screenshots don't really do justice to the cuteness of the game, once you are in game, it is quite charming! It felt a bit difficult to get around sometimes, but the character design was quite lovely, audio work was also enjoyable. Hopefully you get a chance to work more on this, I would love to see a big town with these little guys - Great entry!
I am not entirely sure what just happened, but it certainly surprised me and made me laugh haha - quite the unique idea, that's for sure :3
I actually shared the game with other dev frands :p
What a cute yet spoopy fun game, haha. It gets surprisingly stressful at the end, just like real life :p
Got to play it and really enjoyed it! I found it difficult to control it at first, but after I dropped to my death multiple times, I got the hang of it, haha. Also, you mention all the things you missed but you really should know that regardless of not having a menu, or tile screen and all that - it's a great start of what could be a really cool game.
"Interview at cacophony is a music-puzzler or, as we call it, a musuzzler." Haha, I love this!
I found this game entry because one of your team members posted about the music samples, and I'm so glad I tried it out. This is different from everything I ever played before, and I really enjoyed it! Great job you guys :)
Haha, I can't stop laughing. It's like you're absolutely useless after the fifth beer, life is nothing but a blur (kinda too lifelike for me!). It's straightforward and simple, but so much fun - great entry :)
Reading the previous comments, I can tell you've tackled some of the things people have pointed out because the gameplay did not feel clunky at all to me. In fact, I can appreciate it was smooth and I had no problems with the enemies other than them getting all over my face when they clump up, haha (you were not kidding with the whole "superboss" thing)
I liked the idea, I wished you guys had more time and maybe even used some placer / random artwork to give it a tad more personality. It was really fun tho!
Thanks! It was our first Ludum Dare, we had a lot of fun :)
@piscythe - We started with the idea of making something very simple, we still struggled through given the time! Our first time joining LD and all, but we certainly want to update to improve as we can. Hopefully we can include all these great ideas we are getting from the comments :)
Haha, @michael-silverman hidden talents I wasn't aware of :p
At first we were thinking of including a specific one bandito one swat kind of move, but opted out for an area effect instead - it makes it easier to swat multiple at once without worrying much about accuracy (we didn't want to make it frustrating). Thank you so much for playing it @antonymity! You got a pretty bad ass score right there, total Cookie Senpai!
Hey @christoph! So kind of you to stop by and check out our game! Thank you so much for the feedback, we barely had any chance to play much of it before submitting our entry, so it helps a bunch :)
@didigameboy - The cutest cookie thieves out there, haha - thanks!
@nivbeth - Cookie cutes are the best kind of cutes, thank you so much :)
Aw, thank you! Also, thank you so much for stopping by @wildgamut :)
@elemel - What do you think could improve the gameplay? We are open to ideas! We appreciate you taking the time to check out our game tho, thanks :)
@randomhuman - That's a bunch of great ideas! We realized that we could have probably done a bit more with the gameplay right after we started getting some feedback here on the thread. That's kinda why we appreciate the comments, we keep on learning and we can certainly do better next time :)
LDJAM is crazy, though. We never thought we would make it on time, but we're so happy that we did! Thanks a lot for playing and dropping some cool feedback our way <3
@ithildin - Thank you! We sure had a lot of fun :) Good eye on pointing out that little exploit, we might work around it to fix that. Also, grats on 12k cookies! The best I've done myself is around 10k haha :p
@dimesto52 - Thanks for the kind comment and checking out our game!
@miggyg - We've been thinking tons of how to add a bit more fun to the gameplay, and the idea of the shop was something that both @michael-silverman and I think might work for sure! Thanks for playing and for the feedback :)
@cubeeo! - Thank you for stopping by :D LDJAM was far more stressful than I thought it would be, in between the time and all the details to judge for it, I had no idea what we were doing at first but so glad we made it anyways. Also, congratulations on becoming a Cookie Senpai! And thank you again for checking out our silly clicky game :)
@nervous-composers - Thanks!
@jfraser314 - You're right, we were hoping to participate with a cute short fun game. But we got a bunch of cool feedback from everyone, we might revise the gameplay and include some of them in the future :) - Thanks you so much for playing and commenting!
@cupcake - Thank you! That's a good idea, we will try to include that info somewhere in there :3
@creativewhisper - I am the artist for this game. The only graphic assets I reused from the other game are: the actual Matchy Star character and the stars (which we named as cookie banditos for fun). Everything else, from the into screen, the logo, the color palette, the kitchen, and every other vectorial asset you do see in there, just as the general design for the game - are entirely original. Matchy's Kooky Cookies was born as a derivative idea of a larger IP from Silverware Games called Matchy Star. @michael-silverman and I decided to join in LDJAM last minute, so I did have only two days to do that after all. We loved participating in this, and we hope to get a chance to do it again! Thank you for playing our little silly game :)
@tulipekoni - Click all 'em things! Haha. We updated the build yesterday and the tutorial was one of the things we tweaked. Sounds like there is still room for improvement, which is why your feedback is so helpful - so thank you so much for playing and reaching out to us on that <3
Haha, @michael-silverman you dork!
@maybe - Glad to read you enjoyed the game :) We originally wanted to include more moves to the swat and the banditos, but because of time, we kept the core mechanics instead (that's why you get to swat everywhere in the kitchen, we put the grid first and all) Grats on being a Cookie Senpai! And thank you so much for playing <3
Thanks @differentname! Those banditos sure are cute :)
I found you on Twitter and I was waiting so bad for you to upload this cuteness! It did not disappoint, what a fun addictive pixely thing <3 Loved it :)
Total 5/5 for me, one of my favorites! I loved seeing the progress of it on twitter, all the way to playing the game entry here. It's fun, it's easy to play, it's beautiful, it's great to listen to - loved it all. Great job <3
This was the very first Ludum Dare game entry I got to play this year and it blew me away. I was quite surprised with the music (it set the mood big time), and the art was just so good. It is quite polished for just two days, it is also really immersive for the short burst of gameplay that it was. Loved it, voted for it - if you do ever consider making a longer version for it, chances are I would play it too.
Fantastic game ♥
It was a bit confusing to me to figure things out at first but I found my way eventually! This is one of those games that has a lot of potential to be this relaxed kind of fun at the end of a long work day. I think the concept on itself is really good, but shame time on these things is so unforgiving! Either way, this was a great entry
Played and voted ♥
When I first saw it I didn't expect it to be as challenging as it was! Haha, I had a lot of fun even though I didn't make it to the end
Art is fantastic, level design was great (at least as far as I made it), the only thing that might feel a bit repetitive after dying so many times is the music, but other than that I enjoyed it all around.
Voted! Great entry ♥
This was a lot of fun! I admit I struggled at some parts, but loved how easy to play it was. Loved the background and the transitions, it certainly gives it a heck of a lot more personality. Played, voted ! Great game ♥
This game has a lot of potential, even though it was hard to figure out at first. I mean, the tutorial has all the info, but I am more of a visual person and only text made it hard for me to understand at first
I loved the graphics and the music, the mood of the game is quite lovely - the only thing I would suggest to revisit would be the font. It works ok for the menu, but when there is more text a more conventional one works best to make it easier to read. It was fun tho, voted!
A lovely entry, Papi and Chiwawa are so cute ♥
Also! Almost forget! Please consider adding at least one screenshot to the description over here, it would help motivate more people to play this lovely game entry ♥
We have been taking in every hour we can because we are doing the Jam while actively working. We both had to work this weekend, but we refused to give up on the game, today being Monday it's all the same regarding time
Will be updating the game as soon as we finish things up! Imma link all of you once it's done :)
'Tis finally uploaded! @gsoutz @argensis @immortalfox @dongfangliu @fraukauz
Thank you so much @lordsheo
Aiee, thank you for playing our game @belowzerogames @ohjuliego @hope42morrow @slow-chaz @a0405u @soleyeer @shores - We tried to reminisce all that arcade goodness with a little bit of new!
And thank you @stacy-davidson for being awesome and agreeing to do this bucket of silly with me, you are the absolute best ♥
It was chaotic as hell as we both had a lot of work come up during the weekend, but we made it amg I need sleep and stuffs
I'm so happy to read you liked it @swordguy47! And congratulations on finishing it @she-wrote! Thank you so much for playing our silly game
And thank you for the sweet words about my wonky doodles ♥
We love the feedback and we are so thankful you gave our silly little game the time of the day! Thank you so much @darklumo @caeonosphere ♥
Thank you @nepturenus! We didn't expect it to be hard, but kinda loved how it turned out haha
We will certainly revise those points @paulhocker, with the rush of the jam we sort of got to a point in which we said 'this is good enough for now' but there is clearly room for improvement. Thank you ♥
I'm so happy you got a chance to play @cataclysmicknight! Thank you so much for all 'em lovely feedback ♥
Thank you so much for playing our game and taking the time to reach out with feedback @ch48 @patrykgazing @tryam @sinclairstrange ♥
@euler-moises we didn't work from scratch, we sampled famicon music games clips. That's why we removed the music category from Sammich Snatcher voting
And thank you so much for playing our game ♥
Thank you @jonaso !
This was certainly done with a lot of arcade nostalgia love ♥
I really enjoyed it even though level 7 kicked my butt, haha! I liked the puzzle dynamic of the design, it felt intuitive, and even so, you guys added some really quick keys explanation in the first level which I loved (tutorials are often really hard for me to design, so I appreciate the simplicity and effectiveness of this one)
Level design was great, I do feel difficulty spiked suddenly on 7, as 8 did not feel nearly as complicated with the spikes as 7 did. I would have probably swaped those two levels sort of to keep difficulty level a bit more gradual. Either way, it was fun - voted and liked it! Nom nom!
Loved the art as well, loved 'em spooky bats in the background too ♥
What a lovely little game! I am not sure I understood much of the end goal for the game, but I sure as heck enjoyed the design and the aesthetic / mood of it. My favorite part was getting them to dance, haha
I am not sure if there is a way to get them to do the tasks you assing them to do indefinitively, it seems like they do one cycle and then stop so you have to go back and reassing them what to do - other than that, it was really adorable and fun. Played and voted!
This was a lot of fun! I loved the design simplicity of it as it's one of those games you can play for hours and not even realize it. Although, I was confused when I died - I guess I wasn't paying attention so closely to that (I took a boost and then hit a wall, I think). Maybe more info on the left side would have been useful for newbies like me!
Graphics were really lovely, it set the mood for the game. Voted, loved it ♥
Wow, there is a lot of work and a lot of love going into this one!
First of all, amazing job on the narrative design. I loved how immersive it goes leading you more and more into the story, it feels natural given the complexities of the story and how much text there is - which btw, I love as I come from point and click days. I so did not expect a game like this on a jam entry
The music was great, and I kinda wished there was more of it. Some of the dialogue scenes could have had some sort of ambience to it to give it more of a mood, but regardless, fantastic job combining this into the design. I am not one for rhythm games, but this was really fun
And last but not least, my favorite part, the art. The backgrounds are mad lovely, the characters are great, I love the aesthetic and the artwork style - hands down what drove me to check it out and quite frankly glad I did, because it's perhaps the most charming game I have played today
Voted, loved it - and congratulations on your first Ludum Dare ♥
I so did not expect this game to be so heckin' spooky! What a pleasant surprise
You see the aesthetics and the premise is pretty straight forward, yet that big blob of smoke chasing you certainly builds up a lot of tension (particularly if you get stuck in narrow areas with trees and all that). Really loved the mood it builds, limited visibility and all
Voted, loved it, fantastic game ♥
Loved this one! A different kind of pace, a bit more strategic than most entries I have played - a lot of fun. My favorite part, the hand drawn aesthetic for sure - love how the game looks. Played it and voted ♥
I spent way longer than I thought playing this one! It speaks for itself to how much fun it is. Voted! Not much else to say other than I absolutely loved it, thank you for the fantastic game ♥
I enjoyed the design and gameplay of it, even tho it did feel a tad fast! Haha, either way that was part of the fun of it
I would suggest including some sort of visual indication that you get hurt, I know there is a sound effect, but there were times I didn't realize I actually hit something because I kept looking out for 'em dolphins. Voted! 'tis was fun ♥
That was a lot of fun! Pretty straight forward design, kill 'em skellies - loved it!
Played and voted ♥
Congratulations on your first game! I really enjoyed the idea here, music and everything was great. However, I do admit I was a bit lost at first not knowing where to click, haha. Maybe the options I am supposed to interact with should be more visually noticeable, I mean, make them buttons or change colors or however it would work best for design - it's just a minor suggestion regarding UI shenanigans
Played and voted! ♥
Came for the froggos, stayed for that lovely UI artwork. This is one of those games you wish devs would keep on working on, this has a lot of potential and I enjoyed it so far!
Played and voted ♥
I wasn't sure what to do at first haha, but once I figured it out I really loved that double jump. Also, I did enjoy each level having much more of an area than the previous one! 'Tis was fun
Played, voted ♥
Congratulations on your first Ludum Dare! It was a bit of a challenge, but a lot of fun, great entry. Played and voted ♥
