SCALDRIS : The Arcane ArchitectI never thought that being a bureaucrat was so fun...
Heart, please.
And that guy went around in circles to end up in hell XDXDXD I like how fun the certificates are.
The graphics are good, as is the music, I liked the game.
The only thing I had trouble with was that the cursor is very big and I didn't know where to click, it covered too much area.

Energy from outer spaceThank you for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I'm doubly happy you liked Smendes! I've had a couple of people mention that about the cursor. Definitely something that I'll be mindful of in future since it's not super clear that its the round end and not the pointy end that is the cursor point.
I love this take on the theme. I would have liked to see the scales react properly, instead of just showing a color indicator. Other than that, great job!

Sacred ScalesIt is really funny to me that both of us saw the theme and independently went "yep, weighing of the heart time"
I had a ton of fun with this one! The Papers Please inspiration is pretty on the nose, but the Egyptian mythological flavor along with all the little touches of personality were very memorable. I particularly enjoyed the crimes and virtues - and I also wanna give you 5's in everything for "auto-ma'at-ic"!

Scales of JudgementThis was a super fun game! Out of all of the scale (weight) related games I've played, it might be my favourite because I'm partial to the egyptian theming. I love all the mythological flavor within it! Congrats for completing the jam!
