How does your game fit the theme?
The core gameplay loop involves dungeon crawling and loot gathering, but rather than playing as the intrepid adventurer going through the dungeon...you are his trusty backpack

It's a cute game! It's really funny to waggle around objects at enemies, though the glitches were annoying (where some objects, both in the dungeons & in the inventories, just couldn't be grabbed).

Sometimes rooms would give me two choices of where to go, but I'm not sure that was ever relevant? Like it didn't seem like there was any pattern to the directions so it might as well have just been linear tbh.

I liked the inventory mechanic, with some items taking up multiple slots! That was really cool!

Developer

Yeah, I could never fully nail down some of the bugs with the inventory/grabbing items and ran out of time at the end :/, and yeah, the room directions don't really matter, I set it up early on hoping to later flesh it out a bit but never got to it tho. Glad you liked the inventory mechanic!

Interesting concept!

The concept is pretty original, i found the moves of bob a bit stucky, and it miss some music and SFX to make the game more fune, but the gameplay mechanics are there and works well !
Congratulations for having made this game ! That's a good one !

Thanks! Yeah, I ran out of time to make Bob's AI a bit more polished, and decided for content over SFX, but glad you liked the gameplay!

I miss the start button on my first playthorugh.
Is hard to know what you are suposed to do at first, but after that is really fun.

Yeah, I didn't get to make an actual tutorial from bad time management, but glad you were still able to figure it out!

Honestly this is super fun once you get the hang of it, great job! I'd love to see the future of Bob and his totally normal, absolutely not suspicious backpack of just carrying things and certainly nothing more.

Developer

Glad you liked it! I had a lot of fun making it, and there's definitely potential for more in depth gameplay
