This was so cute!! I really enjoyed what you did with the theme . Super polished looking to boot I love

The mini games are such a cute concept. I did find it pretty challenging at times, particularly the the baseball and skeet games. Having to start over initially felt too much but considering the actual length of the game and that taking the time to really understand the mechanics paid off I think this is a great entry ^^

Ha ha, thanks for playing and the kind words.

The game you made with Clayton is great. The art you made for it is awesome! You did a great job. The title image and logo looks very professional and eye catching!

Thanks for playing.

I didn't realize so many people would find the game difficult. Haha. I even made a tiny animation of the tortoise celebrating that I was pretty proud of and most won't see it.

Loved the story, very creative. I enjoyed the mini games, and I love the imagery of batting the villagers around. It was very satisfying after trying to herd them around :P .

Polish? You nailed it. Really nice feel to this game. Nice pace in some tricky games (I need an "easy mode"). Great job :)

Thanks for playing. Yeah, because I developed the game, I was a bad tester. I was actually worried it was too easy. But I've heard from other people that it might have been too difficult. If I had the time, I would have gotten someone else to test it before I submitted it. Hopefully it was only difficult in the challenging way not frustrating way.

Thanks for playing my game!

BunyipHutchSubmitted172 days ago

Always huge respect for pixel art games. I envy the artists can can make little cubes pretty.

I loved your game! It takes a bit of time to get used to the controls, but it's super fun and I really enjoyed it. As feedback, you might consider making the mechanics more random — like having different mechanics each time. The controls for the villagers feel a bit clunky, but overall, it's perfect! <3

waijeeDeveloper172 days ago

Thanks for playing and your feedback. Yes, in fact that some randomness was on the list, but it had to be given a lower priority given the time constraints. I wanted more potential minigames that the game could toss at the player and the path the tortoise runs along might also be different each playthrough.

Yeah, the controls have room for improvement. I didn't leave enough time for me to balance all the systems like controls and difficulty.

i would love to try it out

Really nicely made game. Liked the idea and liked playing and was good in all areas. did take me a while to figure out how to play tho

Submitted

waijeeDeveloper172 days ago

Thanks for trying our my game. Yeah, it has a Warioware approach where you get presented with a game and you need to quickly figure out what's going on.

Clayton RumleySubmitted172 days ago(+1)

This is a really clever implementation of the theme and you've basically made 5 minigames to control the larger game which is so clever. That canon level was brutal! It took me over 5 tries to beat the game.

Great work!
