Enjoyed this!
My only criticism: when I try to save take more than one person, they almost immediately die because they touch the ground. Maybe leave a bit more wiggle room?

Simple graphics, but they are very charming. (I really like the jump animation.) This isn't the most innovative game, but it's quite fun to play!
Haha this is pure chaos!
Great take on the theme. It was a bit too hard sometimes though, especially with the controls being a bit unreliable.
I loved the simple but cute graphics.
One of the best games I played this LD! Walljumping platformers are always nice. I didn't really mind the camera. I liked the combined gold/health bar mechanic.
Fun, but a bit too hard.
Also: if you want more people to play, you should probably pack your game into an .exe so people who don't have Löve can play it!
Great little game. Love the old-school graphics.
The mechanics are a bit opaque, but after a while I got a feel for it.
Extra points for the humorous text!
Absolutely amazing!
The best game I played so far.
I didn't really know what I was doing, but the metagame/dialogue was really funny.
Sometimes at the end of a game the other party would just not play a single card for like 5 turns. Don't know if that is intended behaviour.
Very chaotic, but really fun!
The start is a bit too easy I think. You can just run around aimlessly without dying.
Amazing art! There's not really a lot going on gameplay-wise, but that didn't really matter. Definitely the most atmospheric game I played.
I tried it in CCS64 emulator, but I couldn't get past the 'press fire to start' screen. Is there an emulator you recommend?
Finally got it to work with VICE emulator.
Amazing work. I don't know what goes into making C64 games, but I assume it's very hard to get done for a jam!
Minor criticism is that the controls are not very responsive. When I do a short tap in a direction, it ignores it sometimes.
Overall very nice! A shame you didn't have the time to get a soundtrack in, because I love me some SID music.
Impressive game! I feel like the difficulty is the real detractor here. I spent 50 deaths in level 7 and quit when level 8 was even harder.
Great graphics and mood though!
Unbelievable: an actual NES ROM for a game jam! Gameplay is surprisingly good for a simple looking game.
Quite enjoyable! I liked the chaotic bullets flying all around the screen. It's also impressive that you managed to make some boss-fights in time for the compo.
Very impressive graphics and music! (Very catchy tunes, too)
The platforming itself feels a bit awkward and there's a lot of precision jumping involved. The ample amount of checkpoints makes up for that a bit.
Overall a solid first entry, congrats!
There isn't enoguh petscii love in this world! Awesome shmup, I was acually laughing at te ridiculous powerups. My only criticism is that there isn't a lot of variation in the enemies.
5/5 for mood! Would love some more content though.
I love the midi music and cute graphics!
This is so great. The graphics, the music, the arm physics, ...
The last phonecall had me laughing and wrecking total havoc in the shop before encountering a guard with $300 of stolen goods.
5/5
Crazy how this is very similar to my own entry!
You've got way better art and fluid physics going on tho'.
This really hard! Great game though, especially if you made it in just one day!
Great game! I managed to get 313 loot!
Could do with some music/sound effects, but that didn't really take away from the game.
Funny we both ended up with the same interpretation of the theme, albeit with very different results!
Lovely game. I really like the pixel-art/3D lighting combo. Very unique style!
I found the premise funny as hell! This is probably better on mobile if you can use multitouch.
Good job! A simple, but very effective game.
I'm very fond of the music! It's catchy as hell.
The controls are a bit finnicky sometimes, but it's part of the charm.
@cppchriscpp
Not bad!
Just for the record, my own highscore: 41/50 in 3m05
@azlen You're on mac, right? Can you confirm the new version works?
@azlen Yay, thanks!
@oivin-f It's a highly modified reharm of Misty. You're the first one to recognize it actually!
@call-me-nutty Thanks for the comment! There is supposed to be music in the game so I'm a bit confused by you last remark.
Amazing graphics!
Cool usage of the theme. Gameplay itself was not as tight as I'd hoped for a racing game.
I laughed at the premise!!
Controls are a bit clunky, but very enjoyable overall.
Got to wave 64!!
Controls are a bit wonky. Overall a very charming game!
Graphics, audio and the whole package are ON POINT.
My only criticism would be that the turns take too much time.
Really cool! Enjoyable mechanics and diverse gameplay!
The balancing needs some work though, and a hit sound effect would be helpfl.
Good ideas!
You should've put every arrow in its own column to make it less confusing.
Very nice!!
Some small bugs/suggestions:
-Physics are a bit wonky sometimes i got stuck in a corner due to a dog walking into me.
-Make the phone easier to click!
-Make the balls easier to find (also why are there other balls i cant pick up?)
-Exit button doesnt work
Other than these I found the entry very entertaining and it had good polish. Visuals/audio are on point!
I also spent like 10 minutes staring at what is apparently a nintendo switch, thinking it was the phone.
Very interesting comination of games.
As others have said I'd think this would work better if it was a bit slower paced. I ended up only using flappppppp mostly because typing other commands took too much time.
Graphics are really well made! Black and white was a good choice for jam games!
Strange little game but I definitely enjoyed it!
Great effort! Shame that there's no audio.
Those cute tofu blocks have won my heart!
Didn't really know what i was supposed to be doing.
Laughed my ass off at 'angrier buses' though.
This has to be the most over-the-top game ive ever seen. I love it!
Combining the two most terrible genres, amazing!
I finished it, hope you're proud of me.
@RIBOUT Horace Thank you!!
You can date the goth snake if you start over and choose the right answers... there's no trick
@Fil089 There is a choice! You can in fact date all of them. It depends on how you answer their questions.
@KingofWhaWha Ill have you know I actually wrote all the dialogue in a rush an hour before the deadline. Thanks for the kind words!
@Jupiter_Hadley thanks a lot for playing as always!! you're doing a great job!
Creative use of the theme! Quite enjoyable.
Though I think I softlocked it by stacking to the top?
Interesting gameplay. I had to mute it because the sound effects got kind of annoying. The artstyle is really good!
Most unique mechanic! As someone interested in bioengeneering this was a fun one. Wish there was more of a challenge/game to it.
Simple but well exectued! Cute graphics and music. This is as good as jam games get!
Quite a fun game!
Wish you'd have done a bit more to make the mechanics more interesting.
Otherwise, very enjoyable: good graphics and music for a compo game!
Amazing that we had the same idea!
I loved the dialogue, the snake mechanics were a bit clunky maybe. Wish I had more time to read the text (not a native English speaker)

I think I won!!
Seriously though, it doesn't seem to be working? The price stays at 0
Thank you for including some dank seraphim/ophanim inspired angels Mainstream human-shaped angels are so boring
certainly visually the most interesting game ive seen here!
I want to bet some aether but it doesnt let me! Pressing up or down doesnt change the number...
Thanks, I got it now.
There is a mysterious atmosphere to the game, which is kind of unexpected for a fishing game!
The minigame is a bit too easy I tihnk, I never failed it once.
I got to the max upgrade and was excited to catch the guardian of the depth, but I only managed to catch iron and diamond fish...
Original idea!
Loved the theme usage and graphics.
You should've really make it a bit easier at the start though.
