Unfortunately the controls don’t work. Only Q to interact actually seems to do anything. I liked what I was able to access, though. The art is cute, and the idea has a lot of potential. It seems like it’s supposed to have adventure game mechanics, which is also nice. It’s a shame I wasn’t able to get that far.

Really nice art style and music. Dialogue seems pretty good too. How do I progress after picking up the laptop though? I want to keep playing once I find out haha

Do Not Climb The Mountain

SilevranDeveloper1 year ago

Well, as a hint, you can pick up and put down items. So start thinking of that second option and the possibilities.

Jarred RuizSubmitted1 year ago

Ok, so I know you can put it in the trash, but is that going in the right direction? Seems like I can't do anything after that

This was a cool game, I like the art and music but I couldn't even figure out how to pass the first room, I interacted with everything I could, tried picking things up and everything, I even restarted a few times to no avail. Idk if it was a bug I kept getting or if I was just missing something

MadEchoSubmitted1 year ago

The art and audio was so cool, I loved the different ways you got to deal with the students. I did get stuck on dialogue a couple times and needed to restart but other than that it was great!

I love this idea! The writing is really good, and i really like the art and audio as well. I'm also very impressed by how complete this feels for a game jam game!

Fun idea and good presentation. The gameplay felt solid to me as well as I didn't encounter the bugs other reviews mentioned. It would have been nice for there to be more interactivity but you can only do so much in a jam!

Game Dev Saga Re:Birth

ikutiDeveloper1 year ago

Thank you so much for playing! We will for sure iron out bugs other are talking about and we shall see if we might add more interaction/content in the future. Thanks again for the kind comment.

Fun dialogues, very cool art style, I didn't at the start that when I put my name on it was referring a girl, so using name Viktor for the entire game was not so smart from me xD

Donkus the Brave

I had a whole playthrough without bugs, so my review might be different from others. Game was well written, and fun to play. Gameplay was a bit simplistic (no meaningful choices except the scene with the principal), but that's expected for a jam game. I don't think it's a great fit for the theme, since roles reversed implies swapping rather than inverting to me. This is definitely one of the better games I've played for this jam. I would play a full game based on this idea.

Happy to hear you enjoyed this! We shall see if we add more content in the future beside bug fixes, but for any updates watch this page.

This game definitely manages to stand out. It's unfortunate that there are so many bugs. Without those I feel as if this could be a very strong entry. I did like the music and graphics. The dialogue was also well-written. Overall it's a good game, well done.

Thank you for playing and enjoying it!
Yeah, sadly not enough time to polish and squash all the bugs, but that's our aim right now. Hopefully post jam version is gonna be more stable and have less softlock bugs.

MoonDragon93Submitted1 year ago(+1)

The art style is unique and really well-balanced! Overall the game is great for the timeframe!

Ego Clash: The Self Duel

CateSubmitted1 year ago

Like the writing, art style, and dialogue, it's good and charming.

However it took me a long time to figure out how to get progress.

I do get this bug a lot of times, but it's understandable you don't have time to fix it under the time pressure.

really cool concept, had fun playing it.

Love the idea of a hating sim XD Took me a little bit to figure out the first part but I love the object interaction! "This is not a time to pick up girls" got me laughing so hard

The Adventures of Radish Boy 2

DuckBeanPotatoSubmitted1 year ago

Cute idea and execution, if a little buggy. The ending part with the principal drags for a little, but its still really funny and enjoyable. The art and music are both really good, too. My only complaint for the art stuff is the way the character goes over tables, but its such a small thing that it's honestly fine.

Submitted

Kinami Imai 今井きなみSubmitted1 year ago

Made with Godot! YAY! 😄

Not sure if it is a bug, but I could not figure out the first level. It seems nothing I can interact with makes the story progress in any way.

Other than that, nice game with a cute art style!

The Unstable Hex of the Demon Lord

SilevranDeveloper1 year ago(+1)

If you are talking about the classroom, there are six items to interact with and then things continue.

A goal/progress counter might help with guiding people in that way, so thank you for pointing that out.

GigaB00tsSubmitted1 year ago(+1)

a very funny concept, I love the idea of getting people expelled from school instead of the usual dating simulator fare, it's very clever! The art style is also very cute, I enjoy it a lot!

If you decide to iron it out, improving things like the text box size and some of the story elements, but it's understandable how that wasn't as polished due to the games production time limit. I'd love to see this concept fully realized!

Thank you! We will possibly look into ironing out/polishing the game after the jam ends.

Attractive girls, but the interact is confused.
