5 out of 5 everything! I hope more people ge to play this! I loved it SO SO much!

I even made some SICK pixel art! The voiceover was soothing, the vibe and humor of the game unbeatable! Sadly I got stuck on the second key/door game :< 

I addded it to my collection to try it out later! Please make more of it, it's totally addicting!

Here is some of the art haha

Developer(+1)

Oh wow that's the best pixelart I've seen anyone make in this game yet! I'm gonna make a full release for steam eventually with deeper story and even more variety in gameplay. But I'm currently busy working on finishing a long term project from last years jam, so it'll have to wait a bit (I'm hoping to have the full release of I overscoped some time during 2024 though). In the meantime it would be appreciated if you checked out my big project: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2434720/Maces_and_Dices/ Thanks for playing!

Submitted

I am so happy to hear that! Will definitley check it out! Thanks! (It made my day and my life so much better tbh)

Submitted

10/10 wonderful game!

Did you know that you can make yourself with the sprite editor? Anyways I love this!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I did not actually know that, I thought that the character was too tall for that.  (or well you can't fit the original hat)

Submitted

This is incredible!! One of the best I've played from this jam! :O

The puzzles are so clever and the satisfaction of everything coming together and becoming more complicated as you progress is so fun. Great work!!!!!!!

Developer

Heyy, thanks a lot for playing! Glad you liked it

Submitted

This game just keeps on giving! Love it!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'll be sure to keep that feeling of suprise when I eventually make a full release version.

Submitted(+1)

Can't complain, I made the game.

Developer

Haha thanks! I love it when people send images of the art they drew

Submitted(+1)

All 5's from me for getting to draw a victory hat at the end.


Developer(+1)

I feel that something is wrong with this hat... Anyways, that is some nice flowers and I really like the enemy you drew! Thanks for playing

Submitted (1 edit)

I love this game! The voice acting really makes the game, it brings another character into the story in a way that almost reminds me of the narrator from Stanley Parable or Portal. The puzzles were fun and the game had a great sense of humor! This game is ready to be sold, I'm seriously impressed

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it. The stanley parable was absolutely an inspiration

Submitted

One of my favorite entries! The meta commentary was funny and fit the general theme of the game, the "coding" puzzles were also really interesting and sometimes had me scratching my head for a minute or two. Another great idea were the sprite editors that conveyed the feeling that you were actually making your own game. My biggest issue with this game is the amount of content but that is to be expected in such a short time frame, would love to see this concept further expanded upon! You should be just as proud of this game as I am of my victory hat

Developer

Thanks a lot! I will expand the game further soon enough, I have so many ideas for a deeper and more interesting story plus a lot of new types of puzzles. I'll just have to finish my current long term project first.

Submitted

Wow, this is a fantastic concept. The full voice acting was excellent, the music fit the energy of the game really well, the puzzles were really well-crafted, and the platforming felt buttery-smooth.

The extra level of polish with the audio/visual feedback for every action made it feel so good to play. I wanted more levels! But being able to make myself a silly hat was a good consolation prize for the game being over :)

I hope you’ll keep working on this after the jam, you have something special here.

Developer

Hey, thanks for playing! I'm glad even the platforming felt good, it would be a real bummer if that would be something that held the game back. I think sound effects are something that a lot of people overlooks but I made sure to add that important piece of polish. I'm going to make a paid full steam release eventually, I just need to finish my current long time project first. In the meantime you can check that out on steam! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2434720/Maces_and_Dices/

Wow! This game is amazing. Everything is so well done! Voice acting, music, coding minigame. You even created a working sprite maker! This is without a doubt the best submission I've played so far. I especially enjoyed the coding minigame. It was just hard enough to get you thinking, but not so hard that you couldn't beat it. The jokes were fantastic too (the one with no gravity is my favorite one). Incredible submission!


Developer(+1)

The gravity joke was actually what inspired me to continue in the direction the project went in. I felt that idea of that jokes was just too good to not make something out of. Glad you liked it!

Submitted

I believe this is one of the top and most polished games in the jam (I won't say that it is the best, because every time I say that, I somehow find a better or comparable game), It's polished, fun, meta and with voice acting too!

Letting players help to code by solving puzzles and help with drawing the sprite encouraging the player's creativity is very well integrated inside the context of the game. And wow, this game is just created in under 48 hours, that's absolutely crazy, and a well-done job.

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad you liked eveything!

Submitted

This was probably the best game I've played in this jam so far. I loved the voice acting and the puzzle design was very good, if a bit easy. I'd liked to have seen a bit more development of the mechanics, especially the timer in the puzzles. In the one puzzle that does involve the timer, the puzzle can be easily solved without actually using it. I liked the music and the visuals. The humour was good too. Overall, really great game, well done.

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! I have a bunch of ideas for further expansion and I will do a full paid steam release eventually. I knew about the timer puzzle issue but didn't have the time to fix it sadly, thanks again for playing!

Submitted

Max stars all the way. I was impressed by the voice acting and puzzles. But then I was blown away by the in game sprite editor. Really really great stuff!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! When I turn this into a full steam release I'll make sure you never know what's coming next, just like the sprite editor suprised everyone

Submitted

That was really fun! The sprite editor adds a really nice touch and makes the world feel like it comes alive!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I thought about the game needing more color so I made the player do it themselves

Submitted

Oh wow, I have no idea how you managed to do all this in such a short time! Fun game, I enjoyed the puzzles. Having to draw some sprites is a nice touch

Developer

Thanks for playing! The sprite editor actually only took around one hour to implement so I'm glad I added it.

Submitted

One of the best jam games that i ever played! really clever idea and execution.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing!

Submitted

This was a great experience! Wonderful game!

Developer(+1)

Glad you liked it!

Submitted

This is one of the games were I kept playing a lot. Enjoyed a lot the gameplay, the graphics and the interpretation of the theme. Well done.

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thanks for playing! The sprite editor kind of adds some replayability even, atleast a bit of extra playtime for those who like drawing

Submitted

Really enjoyed playing this one. Don't usually like meta humor all that much but it was done well here. 

Developer

I'm glad the humor fitted your taste

Submitted

Dang, that's so fun! xD
I loved the voice acting, it really adds a lot to the gameplay lol. It's amazing how you could pull all that up in such little time *-*
Plus, I'm so curious: Were you doing the congrats level at the last hour of the deadline for real? haha
Amazing game, awesome job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! The ending is 100% genuine lol, although I managed to add the hat thing and decorate the victory room during the extended hour, without it, it would have been boring for real.
