An excellent little puzzle game!
Could very well see a larger (but still smol kobold) version of this in a zachtronics-esque framework, where I can share solutions with friends, and we compare little GIFs of our working. Though, for that to work, it would need to be more “problem-solving” than puzzle, specifically I think this would benefit from being a little more forgiving with the number of ticks, and instead letting those who are inclined pursue more optimal solutions (perhaps providing separate dimensions to explore, such as number of time-loop clones, etc).
great feeling game with a premise and gameplay loop that a perfectionist automation loving being like me loves! However I felt that the game was a bit too hard and perfection requiring. I had diffuculty passing level 1
Wow, the cutest!<3 In love with the little Cobold
Charming game with fun looking characters!
we both used kobolds in our game!
Super fun! Love the art style and the little guy chef
LOVE IT if u like to try my game out u can, i love your art stlye for it and its was a amazing game
The timescale + overcooked mechanic is just... chef's kiss.
Very nice! Love the art and style.
Oh no! the furries have taken over the game jam! or should i say scalies...
jokes aside, veeeeeeeery cool concept, my only gripe is that recoriding actions and making sure they're timed properly is very finicky, so finicky and hard i couldn't get past the first level! Maybe if instead of creating kobolds by recording it was instead a timeline like in opus magnum? but maybe that would be too unintuitive for players and time consuming to develop...
Nice game!
The visuals are terrific, and I'm a sucker for kobolds. Well done.
Absolutely adorable game with a really cool concept! I loved the art and the dialogue so much. It's pretty difficult, though, I felt like I could never get my clones to sync up quite right, haha.
Love this super adorable game! And omg the lil faces they make >~> Icant- Great mechanics, super tricky to get the hang of though, but rewarding!
Amazing art, cool mechanic, great game. A bit tough though I really struggled on the first level.
also:
It was super satisfying to figure out a system that worked with the recordings! It reminds me of the game Overcooked which is great. It would be cool if the player had a bit more of an active role once the recordings are put into place, maybe some actions can only be done by the player to make sure they stay a part of the system instead of just spamming space. I agree with what a few others have said which is the difficulty curve could be a little easier to begin with, but I think this has loads of potential and can only grow if you wanted to make it into a bigger release. Really great work!
Very good concept and art, but the first level was really hard when using the time scale, this expanded and with a better tutorial would make a great full game, Well Done.
The idea, story and presentation is very well done!
But, unfortunately... the first level was too hard for me
Absolutely love the idea of a turn based automation based puzzle game, although the learning curve may be steep, there is definitely satisfaction in feeding a big round dragon, ahsdkjfhalkjdf.
Really cool mechanic, and the music makes it all so chill. Really liked the dialog and the puzzle aspect. Nice job!
