Wow it was cool after I got the hangof it!
loved the art and the theme also the mood was so great!!
(I recommend to add an explanation in the page, took me some time to get the spins left of the top left corner)
Wow I love the aesthetic of this game! Very eerie but also kind of endearing? I think it was a little hard for me to figure out what to do, but it was still a nice experience!
This is really cool! I always loved these games at the arcade, and it’s fun to see this spin on it (pun intended)!
It wasn’t immediately clear what the different lights do, but it was fun playing through a few rounds to see what happens. Nice job!
Awesome atmosphere. The blinking lights in the background look great.
It took me a while though to see the board explaining what the colors do, but with a little more tutorial and extra UI i think it has a lot of potential.
The vibe was definitely cool and I really like creepy clowns and circus type stuff! It wasn't entirely clear to me what I had to do in the beginning and I kept dying. Sometimes I died even though I swear I hit the red light. I also wasn't sure what to do with those lights I got.
The art is so fun! Super simple and beautiful!!
I really liked the art, it's very vibey and amazing
Great aesthetic. The 2D and 3D mix perfectly.
What a unique atmosphere. loved it so much.
would appreciate your feedback on my game too ^^. thanks
Loved the aesthetics so so SOOOO much! I wish there was more to explore, it's so addicting!! >_< <3
Looks great! But a more interactive UI would enhance it even further.
Awesome crusty carny circus vibe. I really felt like I was there. Gotta say, the most unrealistic part of this game is actually being able to win one of these jackpot ticket arcade games. Being killed by a clown, on the other hand, is pretty true to life.
Love the gameplay loop (pun intended), it's so satisfying to build up that jackpot and hit it :) That clown will haunt my dreams for weeks, thanks!
I feel like with a bit of fleshing out on the UI side of things (I keep forgetting what the colours of bulbs do when I go to pick one) and some extra mechanics/bulbs/modifiers/goals this could make a pretty awesome full game!
It's addicting haha
really loved the game! I managed to make it as high as round 9 on one of my runs before dying. The art was beautiful!
Really creative and interesting concept! Almost reminds me of a cross between Liar's Bar and Inscryption. Utilises the jam theme really well with an interesting system from the effects of the bulbs that keeps things replayable and excieting. A really well crafted experience with the atmosphere as well!
took a second to understand all the different bulbs but once I understood I really enjoyed it :) great job!
I stopped playing minecraft for the first time in 15 years to play this, and I don't regret it at all. Amazing game, I would buy it if it was for sale and I had money <3
The art was really great! I thought the game was a little easy to start with, but the changing light patterns kept me on my toes. An overall fun spin on a classic arcade game!
Incredible art and dialogue with an addicting game loop. This game made me gamble away my wife and kids to keep playing and it was worth every penny. 10/10
