Very interesting idea and game! I loved the concept and the aesthetics.

I found it a little hard to manage every room and assign room to each new insect!

At the end of the day I got fired at around 80 points! That grumpy chief, let him handle them! xD

All in all, nice game!

Developer(+1)

"Yeah chief, deal with it" xD

The tuning is a bit tight, but there was no time left for difficulty levels.  

Thank you for your feedback :)

Nice game! Likewise a little extra info on how to start, but I got the hang of it :)

Developer

Thank you, we added a tutorial in the game description

Submitted

Nice concept once you get the hang of it. Some sort of tutorial would help a lot though

Developer (1 edit)

Yeah, due to time constraints we put it in the game description. We'll have to make it more intuitive next time. Thank you for playing

It is really a challenge to remember their food preferences. 

Aren't the humidity rooms the same as the dark rooms? (And viceversa)
Edit: Nevermind, my browser didnt load raindrops on first play

Developer

oh, I didn't encounter that bug before, I'll check next week. Thank you

Developer

Really charming art style. Love the crayon hand drawn aesthetics. Nice job!

Developer(+1)

thank you

I really liked the crayon style that you have for the game. Really charming style. I will say I didn't understand the game at first but I looked through the description and I had to infer. Looking back at the first time it seems a little silly I didn't understand but I was just overwhelmed with the different icons and I was trying to interpret the paintings to see if there was a sun in there or something but I tried again and understood the grid system. I got to 212 before I felt the game drag a little. But it was a deceiving difficult memory game. I got overwhelmed a few times but I think I did pretty good :). I got on a string of perfects for a little bit. Pretty cool game :D

Developer(+1)

212??? Yeah, you did REALLY great. Congratulations and thank you for playing!

Submitted

Cute and unique style. Really loved the game. I did find it difficult to distinguish the icons, they where quite small

Developer

yeah, we heard this a lot. We'll do better next time :) Thanks for playing

Really cute game, tested my memory of the bugs foods a lot. I would try to house them too quick and forget what they like.

Really cute art style, uniform and fits the theme really well. Very cute, kudos to the artist!

Developer(+1)

whaaaat, you're amazing. congrats :D

It's an interesting concept. The art is funny.

Developer

thank you :)

It took a while to fully understand the icons but after it was sort of simpler... I feel the patience for the initial bug should be a liiiittle bit longer if it's going to be a memory game (especially for the food aspect) and its UI a little larger. I encountered a bug (lol get it?) where after 2 guests it just stopped so I had to reload. Otherwise I like the direction it's going and I feel i could nail it if I had more time!


Also a huge fan of the artsyle so kudos to the artist ! 

Developer

Yeah, we both were not that good in it because were are too slow xD

The ui was a mistake in hindsight, it really is too small, especially on mobile. The artist had the respawn bug too, but I couldn't reproduce it yet, so I'm still on the hunt.

The art was made with crayons, I think she did great too <3
Thank you for the comprehensive feedback.

Fun chilled game, I found the icon for the bugs preferences a little small. Great job 

Developer

thank you... but the theme was TINY world ;p

yeah, you're  right, we should have made them bigger. Thanks for the feedback

Submitted(+1)

Loved the aesthetic and theme! I wasn't sure exactly which set of rooms had which details but mechanics are interesting and I see potential for the game to be really fun!

Good job!

Developer

Hi, thank you for playing. We probably have to refine the tutorialpage, you forget the outside view when you work on something for a week :)
