Interesting concept for a game! Didn't seem to be able to touch the spike though, not sure.

How does the game fit the theme?
It contributes to the theme "nothing can go wrong" because the for the player in the game, nothing can go wrong no matter how much he wants it to!
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I borrowed the player sprite sheet from itch

This game had a very cool premise, it's a shame it lasts so little. Nice concept and ambience :)

You, the universe and a buttonThe carrot killed me! I wanted to try; it was stronger than me! Then I went back to the "sorry" level. Did I miss something? Liked the idea where every game code is reversed!

Angry ShepherdIs there more to the game than the “touch this” part? Because I got stuck there. I like the style. I think it can be an interesting idea.

Chain ReactionVery fun game, especially the narrative through the background text, but I got stuck on the "touch to start" part

As Long As the Boss StandsI liked the concept and visuals, loved the death pit mechanic :) sucks that the game was unfinished even though it seemed fun. Also some audio would have been nice.

Shattered TimeI like the writing, and the concept is great! At first I thought the "could not finish the game" was a trick of the nightmare too lol but the spikes did nothing. I see this is your first jam and its great that you're already so creative! Keep it up!

My Pop Up Power Up ShopI hope you can finish the game haha, I've expected some jumpscare or sth :)))

The Last PourI wish it was completed ehehe I liked the music and the idea of the mechanics :) Nobody said it was easy, but I tried to touch for long enough the spikes without anything happening. Keep working on it once the jam is over: it is a nice start :D

Three Little PigsLiked the visuals in this and the concept of traps not killing you is quite fun.

Mika's DiaryThe ideia of the game is sooo good, it's really sad you couldn't finish it, I really loved the concept!
Congratulations for your great work.

Cards are the Oddsgreat idea! It seems like you came up with an idea that would be very story based and hard to accomplish in the time frame of a game jam. This is a game that if finished could become amazing. Although something to watch out for is clarity. It's cool to have a color scheme but it's nice to see the difference between the legs and the background. Overall, really great!

SunkenThanks so much for the awesome feedback! You’re totally right—this was my first game jam, and I got a bit ambitious with the story idea. Time management was way harder than I expected, so I couldn’t finish it, but I’m thrilled you think it could be amazing if completed! I’ll definitely keep the clarity tip in mind for next time, good call about making the legs stand out more against the background. Appreciate it!
