I love these kinda sliding puzzles (even if I'm bad at them lol) so this was a really fun game for me to play! Puzzles are challenging, but don't feel entirely impossible. Love the little Cthulhu's and artstyle!
This is such a cute and fun game! I love the paper and hand-drawn art style so much! Really cute sprites and simple, but fun gameplay! Great job!
Well done! This felt like a really good entry to play, I appreciate having a controls and how-to-play in the game itself, it's genuinely really nice to have that! Now onto the gameplay, it is really fun trying to dig down and watching your summons catch up to you and help you out! I do wish there was some sort of way to pick which column the summoned dwarven soul spawns on, though! Overall a really good jam entry and a real treat to play!
Real neat idea! Unfortunately, I had problems getting it to recognize what I was saying, but I really love the idea and think it's really cute!
What a creative idea! I like how it's a play on Vampire Survivors while also having it's own identity, being a management game too! The different ways of protecting yourself makes gameplay engaging and fun, especially when you're clicking and dragging around all of those documents trying to just hastily find the one you haven't committed to memory yet. Overall a great game!
The art is just absolutely beautiful and I love the idea of helping a cat cheat death by manipulating each page of the comic! I do wish that there was some kind of audible feedback when I did solve the puzzle, as I sometimes didn't really understand what I did to solve some puzzles on my first playthrough. Besides that, it's such a gorgeous and charming game! Love this entry!
Incredibly polished and well done! Like what @mitur said, I also noticed that on some occasions, dice disappeared when trying to reroll them, couldn't figure out a reliable way to reproduce it, however. Anyways, the atmosphere, mood, art direction, and sounds all beautifully came together to create a deeply grim and immersive game. Well done!
Really neat idea! The gameplay loop is engaging and hectic in the right ways, though I do agree with @congusbongus in how it does feel like the difficulty spikes too hard and suddenly. The art is adorable, the cats are adorable, this is a real treat! Great entry!
The graphics and premise really drew me in! The animations and motions for the cat are really pleasing to look at, though jumping does feel unsatisfying, but I can tell that it's intentional for use of the crate! I got to the candle boss and was able to beat it, but couldn't figure out how to summon the candle to place it at the pedestal. Overall a really solid jam entry and am definitely interested in coming back to see how much more this progresses!
Really fun gameplay and graphics! I'm a big fan of the simple line art graphics, and the gameplay itself felt fun and exciting, especially when you're getting overwhelmed and just almost resort to mashing your keys. Only thing I'd want more out of this game was some more readability, especially with the elements as monsters begin to stack ontop of each other, it becomes especially hard to know how to respond. Overall, great entry!
