I'm offended by the arrow language.

I really really enjoy this game, It's full of creativity, the mini game was amazing!
10 OUT OF 10!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
A wonderful little puzzle game, and well polished too. Would love to see more levels in the future. I like that the puzzles have multiple solutions, or at the very least the last one did, because I didn't need to use the timer.
Thanks for playing! I'm gonna make a full steam release of this that will hopefully be released next year. I just have to finish my current long term project first. (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2434720/Maces_and_Dices/) The last puzzle wasn't meant to have multiple solutions, but I think it helped with the difficulty, so it's good.
Lovely idea, great execution! The whole game feels polished, and alternating between the sometimes challenging puzzles and the freeform drawing was great to keep it a digestible experience. The voice-acted developer commentary was great. One of the best and most creative submissions I've played so far during this jam!
Hey, glad you liked it! I'll be sure to keep the pace switching when turning this in to a full steam release next year. I'm really happy to find out that my voice acting skills were sufficient, this is only the second time I've tried voice acting.
Somebody lied when they said "We created the vast majority of the art during the game jam" --considering we made half the assets ;)
This was really fun! Nice work! I expect to see this in the video!
Haha, haven't thought about that. Oh no, I'm a dirty cheater aren't I, letting the player do the work. Thanks for playing!
This game was just lovely.
Thanks for playing!
What a clever game design!! Congratulations. I'll make a video about it. This game deserves it.
Glad you liked it! Be sure to link me the video here when it's done, I would love to see it!
Hi again NitramiuZ. Here's the video we made. Your game is in the thumbnail. If you'd like to watch it
oh wow, this is basically a more (MUCH more) mechanically involved the beginner's guide made in just 48 hours. i don't even know what to say, this is incredible in every aspect and 100% deserves to be in the end result video. your skill, persistence and dedication shines through in every frame of the game :) absolutely stellar
Thanks a lot for the honouring feedback! My goal is for the full release version to be a story driven game but with a lot of interesting mechanics too, maybe a bit like portal, but with a completely other enviroment and plot
It's more Dr. Langeskov, the Tiger, and the Terribly Cursed Emerald, a Whirlwind Heist than Beginnner's Guide to me, but I get what you're saying (if you haven't played the former, you're in for a treat. Same dev).
sorry if it comes off as annoying, but those two games are actually made by different people :P the beginners guide is by the person who made the OG Stanley's Parable (the mod), while dr langeskov is by the team of people who (at least part of them i'm not sure exactly) worked on the standalone version together with the mod's developer
both games are great though :)
Ah, thanks, I didnt' know that.
LOVED IT.
The puzzles were good, not too easy, not too hard. The humor was on point. Giving us the ability to draw our own sprites is a genius idea. A full release should include a function to upload and view the sprites, there are some really cool ones in the comments already.
Thanks for playing, glad that the puzzles were a good difficulty for you! A gallery to view other's sprites would be an awesome thing, but then I'll have to do some active moderation I'm afraid. I might do that anyways tho, could be worth it.
Hey, thanks for playing! Glad you found it funny
This game is a gem and a delight! <3
This might be one of the games that I hope the most gets an expanded release later, as I could easily see it catching on with a lot of people. It has the perfect amount of puzzle-y-ness, while mostly being a great game with a focus on self-expression.
Good luck with the jam, and your future endeavors!
Thanks for playing it on stream! I am certainly gonna do a full steam release eventually, since as you are saying, it has a little bit for everyone. I'll have to finish my current project from last year first though, but if all goes well this game is gonna get a full release sometimes next year.
I am so looking forward to that! I'm following you here now so that I hopefully see those future updates, and I'll have to check out your other works!
nice i made a thropy for myself
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing game! 15/15! I would be honored if you could rate mine!
Thanks for playing!
WHY DID YOU GIVE ME THIS POWER??? YOU KNOW I'M NOT MATURE ENOUGH TO HANDLE THIS RESPONSIBILITY
Oh no what did you do to the flower :O (I don't think I want an answer)
Ok, this right here is a jam winner, what a game. Super neat concept, yeah a couple bugs but the execution was fantastic and the voice acting was the cherry on top! How did you get this done in a weekend?
Thanks for playing! The secret is sleeping 4h less than usual and being experienced with the tools and programming I think. The simple art style helped a lot aswell.
Really funny, and I enjoyed the puzzles a lot. I thought I was softlocked briefly due to one of the reset buttons not working, but I found one pixel that was clickable and managed to continue. Good work on this!
Thanks for playing! Yeah, that button on the second key puzzle thats barley working is really annoying
Nice voice action! Actually inspires me to try to work that in in a next gamejam too :)
The puzzles were nice, even if a bit on the easy side, but they were a good distraction to keep invested in the gameloop.
Yes, voice overs are really rare in game jams, you a tip that subtitles are really important if you do use them, so non native speakers can understand the game better. The feedback on the puzzles have been varying a lot, I think it depends on one's experience with puzzle games. But glad you liked it anyways!
Voice action! Damn! Check our too!
Thanks for playing, glad you liked the voice acting!
This is by far the most creative implementation of the "you are the developer" concept, you should definitely make this a full release.
By the way, the last level can be solved without the timer.
Glad you enjoyed it! I'll turn it into a full release eventually, I have a nuch of ideas for expanding the game. And yes, I knew about the timer puzzle being a bit broken but I didn't have time to fix it
Loved the ART! Thanks for such a wonderful experience!
Thanks a lot for playing!
