The 3 puzzles in this game felt like a perfect learning curve. Not too hard to make me give up, but enough to keep me thinking. If there were more levels, a rewind feature might make it much better. But because it's so short, no rewind also means no accidental solutions (you need to understand what you're doing). I liked the hexagonal grid. This feels like a demo of a full game.
That was really fun! The website graphics were a little wonky with my screen dimensions and I couldn't get the title cards lined up where there were supposed to be, but luckily that didn't affect gameplay at all, casue once it started I was having a great time. I really think your take on the theme was quite clever and I really enjoyed the mechanics of the game!
This was so fun, and a nice new take on this type of puzzle game that I haven't seen before! Nice job with the level design and difficulty curve on this, it felt really good
This game looks really fun to try! Sadly, it seems that the graphics aren't positioned quite right when playing from a monitor with a different resolution so it wasn't playable for me past the second level :( Ducky.PNG If you're able to fix this somehow I'd love to try it out so I can give you a rating! I think if you enable full screen on itch.io it may behave better. The mechanics made it seem like it'd be a fun puzzle game.
Really pleasant art & music for a game jam. I do like how relaxed it feels, even though it difficult. I would suggest increasing the food time limit if you ever want to make it easier (speeding up the character might ruin the relaxing mood).
Those graphics are beautiful, I was already blown away by the main menu! Gameplay seemed really fun but I wasn't very good at it so I couldn't get to deep into it. I was a little confused on which professional to use for which case, but other than that I thought it was really great!
I really liked this as a fun little puzzle game. It kinda gives me vibes of something that would be in the club penguin arcade room lol
The dungeon and the lighting looked beautiful! This game looks like it would be a lot of fun with time to incorporate more levels and traps
Amazing art and graphics! I also really like the interesting game mechanic that comes from needed to drop the plant to heal it and to shoot. The flying enemies confused me a little bit since they were at kind of anawkward height to shoot and I wasn't sure if I was hitting them, and they also didn't seem to hurt me.
I think the knight bears should be faster than the other bears because it's not quite useful enough to buy. But it's really cool how you're making an army of teddy bear to defend from the monsters.
The visuals in this game are incredible! I also like the opening text XD However, I found the game a little to confusing to be playable. The main things that confused me were the purpose of the checkmark with the slider, why my aliens would seemingly die at random, and why I lost when I still had aliens. Also I found a small bug where you can buy food that you haven't unlocked yet just by clicking where it would be. I think if I understood what I was doing a little more, this game looks like it would be quite fun and interesting to play
