When I saw the title I thought the game would be a mafioso type game where you beat someone in the backroom of casino but this one is also a cute game. Congrats :-)
really cute game! took me a moment though to figure it out
Really enjoyed this! If you continue it I think it would be really cool if you gave the actors personality/story lines, but overall the gameplay was really fun and I loved the puzzles!
Fun little game. I like the idea of minigames. I think the timers end too quickly, maybe pausing all timers while playing a minigame would help.
I really enjoyed playing this, got slightly stressful running from one side to the other but that was apart of the fun i guess!
Nice Game, it would be nice to see why you failed or maybe I have missed something. Fun little game :)
Thank you! The end screen does tell you what task you lost to. You might have missed the curtain at the bottom right, its timer is misplaced so it's easy to miss :)
Cool ideas here, was a bit confusing to initially figure out who I was playing as but the games were fun combined with the aggressive timer mechanic, makes simple tasks way more difficult to complete under pressure. I think maybe having a break or intermission between acts would give the player a nice breather between stages, if you get behind on some stuff you're not likely to come back from that which doesn't feel so great imo
We definitely plan to make some adjustments to the balance, since it can get really stressful if you fall behind!
cool game, gets pretty hectic quickly.
Thank you! It really does!
Took a second to figure out the loop! But great concept!
Thank you!
I very like all the puzzles, they could me more random (for example different clothes for the boy). The background music was spot on! Nice game!
Glad you like it! Different costumes is definitely a plan for the future!
Really cool game! It's like a combination of various different games that really tests your multitasking
Glad you liked it!
Playing as the unsung hero of a theatrical play! What a fun and unique take on the theme! I love all the little minigames on each task, they're very different from one another which really help in making the game constantly challenging, and not repetitive.
As others have said, there could be some adjustment in the hitboxes and what not, but other that, great job!
So glad you liked it!
Fun game! We had pretty similar approaches to the theme but its cool to see your interpretation. As other people have said the colliders for the minigames could use a little work, as well as making sure your minigames are easy to understand. With a couple changes I could see this being really fun :)
Glad you had fun! We have a list of adjustments to look at after the game now :)
Fun but the colliders were a bit weird
Glad you had fun! They are definitely a bit off
I really like the idea of this. Having to deal with all the back stage disasters was fun. And having the absurd dialog from the play going in the background but you couldn't quite pay attention to it really felt like working in a theater. The hit boxes around the objects seemed wrong, or too small. I would often run over to something and have to click around it randomly until I found exactly the right pixel to stand on to make the mini game pop up.
Glad you liked it! We've made a note of the hitbox issue and will hopefully fix it later!
Neat game! I liked that there were so many micromanaging tasks to be had, and the onstage dialogue was fun to read as I was playing. A small thing I noticed was that the backstage kid looking for a costume was looking for the same one every time; maybe I was just rolling it again and again, but if that was intentional, maybe mix it up, especially as the game gets more hectic. Great work though!
There was originally a plan to have the outfit switch but time constraints made us focus on other things, glad you liked the game!
