That was fun! Got stuck trying to use the flag for a good while because it went in there but didn't do anything.

Concept seems fun, but I can't see the messages on the left (I  see just enough to see that they exist) and can't open the game fullscreen, it is pretty weird

Very creative project! Big ups to the new jammers! Here's to many more!

I loved the inception-like mechanic and it's always fun to find real pictures of devs in games. Seems like you guys had a blast making it

Very creative, really cute artstyle as well. Was a bit laggy for me and the camera started to rotate slightly in the room. 

Nice references as well, especially the painting with the mermaid looking up to the moon while playing Moonlight Sonata. Clever way to show credits as well.

I also like the pun in the game name :3

The game is really a gem. I loved the art and the dimensions of the game.

Keep it up.

Be sure to check mine :)

I collected the moon and pole but couldn't figure out the rest (without the hints from the description at least).

The "worlds inside worlds" idea is great though and I liked the vibe and dance animation, congratulations!

Nice take on the theme, I love the point and click adventure angle. I also like the silly light-hearted vibe of the game :) nice work y'all

Its really a clever way to make the theme, really fun to scale in or scale out to find secrets ! Nice game :)

so cute!!! really had fun with the style, and a super clever take on the challenge! Also whew, that must have been a lot of work, great job! I couldn't find key but perhaps i gave up too early, lol

It's really an awful lot of work for a jam! I got all the other materials for the puzzles, but I got stuck at the guard's place...couldn't find a way for the flag to be used. The Rickroll was one of the highlights haha. 

There can be some bool checks for the notifications though so it doesn't reappear once a small puzzle has been solved.

The art design was very cute and charming. I enjoyed going inside buildings and toys. I laughed when I had to grab the flag. I also found the credits and videos, but is there a key to the box somewhere?

This point&click was very impressive congrats!! 5/5

Very cute, and very well polished! But I feel like I had to "brute force" my way through the puzzle - the connections between items and solutions weren't obvious to me without an explicit hint, and I found myself just swinging the mouse about to find "interactable" objects

this game is very cute! I loved the version of Dilemma as the main song the monster was dancing to. the puzzle was super fun to solve, but it did take quite a bit of thinking to figure out that I could actually use the items in the hotbar in the different dimensions.

overall, great job to the dev team! i love the credits polaroid with everyone's pictures!

Delightful game! I had a lot of fun finding the secrets

Great game. I was a bit stuck to be honest. But thanks for  the walkthrough.

BTW kudos on 1. including Mark's discord profile and 2. the rickroll! XD

Charming game that got me hooked by the art and style! Unfortunately I got a bit stuck after the dream part, and didn't feel like cheating hehe. Great job though!

Submitted(+2)

The art and music make the game incredibly charming. Zooming in and out on different areas was surprisingly fun despite being a relatively simple mechanic. And finding the credits was a really heartwarming surprise. Great game!

very original and fun idea :)) but I had an issue where some elements, like the global volume and the items, couldn’t be visible if you didn’t fullscreen the game manually. I’m playing this game on chrome and it crops some parts of the game’s screen, but I still had fun. good job!!

Cute puzzle game! I liked the concept of going smaller or bigger in a point and click game. You got me with the Rickroll too :D One thing I'd work on is the tutorial/onboarding. It was a lot of info, and kind of hard to digest it all.
