Ahh! Playing this game felt like eating candy. The feedback was really satisfying. I didn't read the instructions, so I was a little confused at first as to what the objective was, but I got the hang of it. Great little game. Perhaps I didn't get far enough, but I had a hard time figuring out how exactly it related to the theme.

I love how you went all out on the art style with music to match. Great job.

Dog Home AloneVery nice and cute graphics, gameplay is fun. It's nice to see more pico8 games on the jam. I got to level 20. At some point I didn't know why I wasn't completing the level, until I realize the little guys exploded over time, at that point I only let them stay in the paint and released them once I knew I had them all. also I was hoping I could combine colors to make things more interesting. Anyways, very cool concept!

Control CommandoVery decently done with some good style! Not sure why they all want to get dipped in paint exactly, but it did become very anarchistic towards higher levels! Good work! :)

Don't Go Boom!at first I didn't realize what to do b/c I didn't read the instructions but once I understood what to do it was pretty fun especially when I realized I can drop the guys from high above into the paint.
I made it to level 15 or so but it seemed like it wasn't that difficult. I dunno if the levels ever stop or you just see how far you can get. I had fun playing

RoboScooperVery fun and the visuals were great! I did encounter a bug where I could not drag any of the characters but I'm not sure how it happened. It would also be nice to see a bit more variety since it did get less interesting after about 10 mins of playtime. However, I think that this simplistic nature would also make it a really good mobile game. Overall, great work and I hope you keep working on the game!

ApocalypseVery, very good presentation, wish there was a bit more variation on the gameplay though, besides just put the person in and then take the person out.

Keyboard DancerGreat presentation and sound! I wish there was something else for me to do besides putting them in paint and then taking them out, maybe something that makes their placement on the ground more significant. Well done!

Sunroof ShootoutThe art, animation, gameplay, it's all so well done! And in 48 hours? Well done! Also you could kinda leave the people in the paint bucket so they don't die, then let them out last minute when you have all the colors.

Growing BrokeI don't know if it was intentional but I played it on my phone and it works very well with touch controls! The game play is smooth and the little dudes are cute as heck! Great job :)

Backseat BeebowThis game is adorable, I love the chatter that comes from all the little people! I agree with some of the other comments where it was a little unclear on what the goal was (was it good that everyone dies at the end of the level? things like that). But as for the visuals and interaction, everything was super polished and easy to use. Great work!

Hose It Down!thanks! I still suck at tutorials, but I m getting better.
Actually you have to dip the people to turn it to the color requested (in the lower right corner). I’ll try to clear things up once the jam is over and I’m able to update. Also, the guys at the end of the level are supposed to blow off but due to a bug on my part isn’t showing, at least you realize they where dying. 🥰
Animations are top notch, the game could have been explained better. Feeling of play is really cool, everything just works

Control PanicI played something like 13 levels, I didn't really get how them running around affected your ability to play the game? Kinda had to guess what I was supposed to do, although I think(?) I figured it out? The medal at level 10 was noice. Music and sound effects were enjoyable and fitting and the animation was extremely on point.
