This game is insane! Its so cute how did you make the guys wiggly I love it! And the music and sfx are pretty cool, I love the art style and overall aesthetic of the game! Its really fun to spam summon a bunch of the little guys and watch them run around! Overall really impressive work!
I love the clever play on words for the theme, the art, and the concept for the puzzle! The UI and UX were well done and the sound effects were a nice touch! Great work!
This game was really cool! It is very clear in terms of visuals and information for the player. I like the art and love the effects! Not sure if it was intended but I wasn't aware I could scroll and see more screens for quite a while so I was confused what was going on lol. All in all great game! Would play again
This was a fantastic game! I wasn't sure what to expect going in cause I'm not good at chess-chess but this game had a fun amount of strategy and planning and the audio and visuals make for a calm and relaxing experience! I managed to get a high score of 8200 on the first run it was really fun. Great work!
I love the art style and the animations in the intro and in the game itself! The music is super cute! The mechanic is interesting, though I didn't quite understand if / how I could control the spawning. Adorable game overall!
I love the audio sfx and bgm for this game it is very satisfying. This is a clever little puzzle game and I really enjoyed figuring out each level. The visual effects for level completion was a really nice touch. I accidentally got soft locked in level 10 by spawning a clone between my previous self and another block. I couldn't figure out a way to undo it and wasn't sure how to restart the level. softlocked.png
Overall it was a very polished and enjoyable game. Great work!
This game was very calming and adorable! I love the concept and the optimization mechanic it is quite addictive haha. I like the sound effects and the little characters, and the resources unlock along the way. Overall great job!
Took me a while to understand the controls and I thought I needed a special controller to play at first haha but oh my gosh this game was adorable I love how you work together with your doggo and the behavior of the sheep! The dog is only 2 pixels wide but is filled with so much personality! And of course 11/10 can pet the dog! Fantastic work!
The art was impressive and I like the complexity of the game! Interesting game!

I managed to get up here but I'm not sure how to proceed haha I jumped off the map but nothing happened?
Update: I managed to proceed and got jumpscared o.o new fear u n l o c k e d All in all interesting experience and very nice graphics!
I saw this in the feed and it was so cute I had to try it out! It was really cute and the music was nice! The sound effects were funny and the concept overall was interesting. The interface was easy to use and intuitive. Overall great game!
The graphics for this game was really impressive! As was the audio and SFX. I love the concept for the game and the little visual effects for the actions. Overall great work!
Interesting concept! Was a little weird that you could infinitely summon your own blue stuff and I wish you could walk and summon at the same time. Interesting summoning concept, and lovely art and overall story. Overall good job!
This was a really interesting experience! I love the funky music and the cute art style. The concept of the game is quite funny as well. I like the speed running aspect of it and the many options for pathing. I think this game would be cool with more levels! Overall great work!
I like the concept of the game, but the difficulty to control the car and the lack of quick restart made it a bit frustrating at times but it was still fun to play. I like the sound effects, visual effects and art style of the game. Overall good job!
This was an interesting game! The controls took me a while to understand but it was pretty fun to play once I got the hang of it! The audio and graphics are funny and you chose a good music for this game. Overall great work!
I like the little bounce effect for the character movement. I'm not sure if I was playing as intended cause I just kept spamming F to infinitely upgrade my units and it got a bit laggy when there were so many units haha. Not very sure why all the text says "summon three soldiers" I tried playing it again with out the F key cheat and it was quite fun! Overall great work!
I love the concept and mechanic! The scraggly lookin cat looks really funny I wish there was a speed up button (maybe option to adjust timescale) once I got the solution cause I'm a bit impatient haha (especially when there's a lot of cats) Overall cute and interesting game! Well done!
The art and audio are really well done! This was a really cute rhythm game! I love the aesthetic and overall vibes of the game. Sometimes it felt like the notes coming didn't quite match the music and it threw me off a little, but it was still fun to play none the less! Overall great work!
I like the wiggle effect on the cursor! The art is super cute and has lovely details! All the animations, effect and music add a ton of value to the ambiance and overall enjoyability of the game! I love adding more and more little ufos to the scene! Past a certain point the enemies seemed to stop spawning but I wasn't sure if the game was over or not. I waited to see if something would start but it was just me and my little cat army floating in the void. Overall it was a really enjoyable and well executed game! Great work!
I really love the movement for this game its so satisfying, and the sound effects and music were a nice touch. The levels made clever use of the mechanic. I think it would be nice to add a grid to help me count where I'm placing blocks (Especially for the level where I build the stairs) I would love to play an extended version of this game! Overall great work!
I think the art and sound was cool! The animations were interesting, though the font was hard to read and the text disappeared a bit too quickly and sometimes when I clicked I wasn't very sure what was happening. I like the aesthetic of the game though!
I like how the lighting adds to the ominous ambience of the game and the physics of the items! I am curious if the different foods in the fridge affected who / what was summoned (I'm guessing quantity?) I was not very sure of what my health first and was trying to figure out how to eat the food after taking damage haha Nice work!
@literally-void Hello thank you for your feedback! I attempted to fix the camera (it broke on the build previously TwT) so hopefully the game can be played on itch.io now!
@7uc4s I'll work on a patch for the controls after the jam hehe Thanks for the feedback!
Hello everyone! I have done another patch on the end scene hopefully you can see my last couple storyboard bits now TwT
Okay I did another rush patch! Hopefully players can now reach the end. Thank you to @literally-void & @k4su for notifying me and special thanks to @k4su for helping me fix it for this website!

Hello everyone! Apologies for the late reply. I want to thank you all for taking the time to leave a comment for my game!
Sorry for the janky controls (and audio I finally realized why it was missing :') ). I'm hoping to at least make a V2 based on the feedback sometime this year (hopefully).
List of changes TODO for post Jam V2 based on feedback: - Fix the movement bugs (spinny corners and laggy bits especially) - Better visual representation of current gravity direction & movement options - Fix the broken Audio SFX - Add the missing BGM (prev incomplete) - Level differentiation beyond quantity of enemies and map layout - Fix goal and player spawn in wall bug - Fix health bar visuals off screen issue - Fix level colliders - Graphics updates for sprites and bg - Ignore bullet collision for gravity computation
Thank you for your kind comments about the game and also compliments about the art. Special thanks to everyone spent time to play through the whole thing and those who let me know about the bugs and crashes.
Hope to see y'all around next LD!
This game was cute! I love the music and visual effects for the bg and goal, and the funny audio BERG every time one was summoned. The concept for summoning was also very well executed. Sometimes the character walks a bit too far to the left or right and I have to restart the level which felt a bit unfair especially when I was close to beating it. I liked the way the levels progressively taught the players the mechanics of the game. Overall a really fun and challenging puzzle platformer, great work!
Interesting game concept, I like the little army of zombies following me, sometimes they did get in the way though. Would be nice to have more options on what to do or movement, as it was frustrating sometimes when I got stuck on an object or enemy. Overall fun game to play, great work!
I love the concept for the mechanics and the implementation and sound effects were great! Sometimes it seemed like the fire burned the character even though it looked like it wasn't touching. Overall great work!
Interesting game! I love the art its very cute! I'm not very good at it but it was entertaining regardless hehe! Good job!
The vibe of this game is so cool and artsy! It has a really interesting old timey ambience. I was trying to figure out the buttons and accidentally bet all I had and lost immediately haha. Great work!
HAHA YES HERE COME THE DUCKS Cute little game! A simple and silly but exceedingly enjoyable concept!
OH my gosh this game has a really adorable art style and concept! Its a simple game but very charming! I think its hilarious the cats casually sliding in for a snack! The music is peaceful and cheery! I wish I could summon more of them at once! Overall lovely little game!
OH I just noticed the team's credits are on the food how adorable!
Interesting concept for the game! I didn't quite understand how to play at first until I found the hidden ingredients! The idea was pretty good, though I feel like there was a lot of repetitive work trying to build up the funds for the black heart. Sometimes the money got stuck in the corners and was a little hard to grab. This game had a unique ambience and style, overall pretty well made!
I like that the world feels very big and open and I like the concept of the spell casting! It was a bit hard for me to hit the numbers then rush back to the wasd key while looking at the screen sometimes, but it was quite interesting! Love the visuals and effects!
Interesting concept and cute artwork! Sometimes the hero seemed to skip a tile and move two steps, avoiding one of the monsters I summoned. Overall it was a really fun game!! Great work!
I like this concept! Final score 3060! The controls feel very fluid and I love the snap effect when you place a tile down and the bounce animation to show which ones got points. Fun little game! I wish there was more levels to play haha overall great game!
The art is really pretty! I love the little animation of the tiny creatures moving about during the combat scene hehe. I think it's cool that we get to use the different abilities based on what creatures are left in our little squad! My strategy was to pick the bunch with a majority of one type and spam those attacks. I love the post battle view of the tiny creatures moving about! Super cute hehe :D. Cool that all the enemies have animations! The stats concepts were super interesting, though I would like a way to view what the current stats are during the battle. Love the creature designs! I wish I had more money to take care of the little guys a lot of them seemed hungry TwT. The creature names are cute too hehe. It was a little hard to tell which creature was being cleaned in the post battle scene cause the cursor kept switching between creatures but it seemed to be working anyways hehe. In the later battles block spamming seemed to be the strategy between actions lol OOO nice animation for ultimate attack. I think some energetic battle music for the fight and chill relaxing music for post battle is all this game really needs hehe. Overall it is a very impressive game especially considering the time constraint, the UI is clean, the concept is a refreshing take on turn based combat, the art is lovely. Keep up the incredible work, and all the best for the jam!
