Woahhh!!! Quite interesting!!! 

The assets and the visuals were cute and had a soothing effect on the eye. Loved the gameplay and the overall flow of the game. 

Good luck for the jam I hope you like other games in the jam too<3

Great idea! Amazing Execution!

Developer

Thank you! :-)

Very cute and great art! Music fits well and when facing a cpu it becomes a game about seeing what the cpu does and trying to react as fast as possible. 

Overall good take on Rock, Paper, Scissors and Great Submission!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words and for playing the game! Love to see people enjoying the game!

Wow. I like it

Developer

Thanks!

It looks lovely, but we had a hard time doing this in a multiplayer session since one player always gets advantage on PC. Maybe you could've mapped the action on keyboard inputs, that would make the game way more playable in multiplayer. We had a laugh though, so thank you for the experience!

Developer

Thanks for playing! :-)

It's true, we should've implemented the keyboard input!

Cute little game, loved that you added a two player version, CPU is choosing too early but I guess otherwise it would just be a random game ...
Very chill

Developer

That's very important to us: that you as a player feel the chill and the little touches here and there :-) Thanks!

Cuten and fun, simple, but you can tell it was made with care, great job!

We always put love in our games :-)

This is such a cute game!! The art is so cute and fits the whole vibe so much, and I adore the rock-paper-scissors mechanics, it surprisingly fits the limitation really nicelyl!! :D I was only able to play against the CPU but I still enjoyed it so much, it was such a nice experience!! 

Developer

You should definitely try with a friend, on the couch or at the beach :-D

Thanks for the kind words!

Great art style and sound effects help polish this game from rock paper scissors into something worthy of a jam. There aren't too many bells and whistles, but nevertheless I played till I won! Good submission.

Developer

Thanks for playing it and we're glad you appreciated it :-)

Love the art style and the gameplay is so good! I love the quick decisions but also seeing what the other player has chosen and figuring out what to play is great

Developer

Thanks for the kind words and for playing :-)

Amazing! Love the art, love the gameplay. It took me a second to memorize the counterattacks, but once I did it was a fun reaction time game. I'll have to try it with a friend.

Submitted(+1)

This game is soo amazing, like, i really love that simple art style, the music fits the characters and the enviorment, the mechanics are good, but there is one problem, i think it will be better if you couldnt see what the CPU picked after the time is over


Good Luck in the jam brother

Developer(+1)

We just love to hear such enthusiastic opinions :-)

Thanks a lot! Good luck to you!

Submitted(+1)

Good work on your project!  It's got some unique charm to it, with the visuals and gameplay.

Developer

We're glad you appreciate it :-) thanks!

Submitted(+1)

I like the style. Good work!

Developer

That's for sure a cute thing ;-) Thank you for playing!

Submitted(+1)

I thinks I just win once but hey it’s not relevant: I love the style and the mood of the game. Simple but really original and fun, well done!

Developer

Having fun at the beach is the most important thing :-D Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

I like the Simplistic style , it's rock paper scissors. enjoyable sadly with just the Ai its not as challenging

Developer

It's amazing how some of the players have a really hard time beating the AI while others state that the game is too easy :-D

Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Dude, I lost all my games. Do I just have terrible luck or is your AI actually a God? 

Loved the art, music, and sound effects. It fits well with the game. Well done. 

Developer (1 edit)

You should have at least a split second to act after the AI shows the pose! GIT GUD :-D

Thanks for playing and the appreciation!

Submitted(+1)

It was a lot of fun! The art style is very charming and I always love a good ol' game of rock paper scissors.

Developer(+1)

Classics never get old ;-) Thank you for playing!
