How does your game fit the theme?
The game takes place inside the mind of little brothers, who always love to play and imagine their toys fighting in grandiose scenarios. The game takes the "built in scale" theme in both the narrative, as the kids play in little sets that are built in scale, and in the gameplay itself, as you need to build your character as the enemies continue to scale in difficulty

Very cool ! It fits the theme, simple yet effective gameplay, nice story, just about the right lenght. Well done !

Developer

Thank you!!

I really like the style and concept of attaching different parts. However, did not understand the use of luck aspect in this game.

Developer

I agree it should've been clearer what each of the stats did for the player, in this case increasing luck increased your chances at hitting a critical attack. Thank you for your feedback!

This is the perfect kind of entry, tight, sweet, and my favorite part, re-playable.  Reminded me of Medabots, and all the designs felt like how I would have drawn these guys as a kid. Really smart!

  Great out of combat music too!

Developer

Thank you!!

I feel a sense of nostalgia from attaching all kinds of powerful parts and creating wildly imbalanced toys, like you might do as a kid. The final background is quite eerie, too!

Thank you for playing!

Very cool and endearing, love the build aspect. Great visuals and music too. I just wish that the dialogue would slow down a little, as some of it would skip past me before I could read it.

Developer

Yeah, the speed of the dialogue was definitely something that we didn't get right. Thank you for your feedback!

Big 5 from me for enjoyment! The mechanics for the battles could use a little fleshing out, but the secondary game loop, the narrative, and certainly the style more than made up for it. 

Developer

Thank you for your kind words!

It reminds me of the time when I was little playing exact same concept with my older brother. A little more on attack and defense animation would make it so much better! Really hit me with a punch of nostalgia haha. Good work!

Developer

Thank you! We appreciate the kind feedback.

Such a cool game. The minimalist narrative frame made all the difference. I know it's probably due to time limitations, but would love to see other mechanics for attack/defense AND new figures, a ton of them, like maybe 150, 200? I know you guys wouldn't let me down xD

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! There are plans to expand upon the concept once the Jam is done,. If you are interested, feel free to follow the project!

Really endearing little game, had a lot of fun watching the character I built come together to fight the final boss

Developer

I LOVE THE ART!
The background paintings are amazing. Love 'em!
The game loop is super funny and nostalgic somehow (I'm not that old, I promise!)
The initial dialogue is very rapid but besides that the game feel polished!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad that you enjoyed the art haha

What i build was indeed, worth it haha

Really cool game :)

The dialogs go a little fast, but are readable at least

and i also really like the designs and backgrounds :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! We did find the dialogs to be faster than what we intended in the final build, something to take into account for next time.

Submitted(+1)

Woah this is so unique and fun. I loved the art style and story :>

Developer

Thank you!

The story goes kind of fast, but the mechanic of choosing a character is very cool! I like that the fights take so little time but, sometimes I have a little star icon in my actions but it doesn't seem to work

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! it is very helpful

Loved the art style! Also the mechanic with the body parts was cool and the songs were very nice. I enjoyed it, good job!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted(+2)

I played the whole thing! Love the artstyle and easy to learn mechanics. The creepy eye in the background the last fight was pretty neat. And multiple songs as well, great work!

Developer

Thank you very much for your comment!

I liked the turn based scaling up mechanics and the action based qte during combat.

Submitted(+2)

I like how the theme was tied into the gameplay, though it is a bit easy to power through each encounter.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!
