Puntastic title and the opening quote warmed my cold soul. XD
Cute good graphics.
Really fun, though it took too much time for me to figure out the mechanics. Great game leading to frantic situations, though I think some oni spawned with unfairly high want levels, making some runs much more difficult than normal.
I'm not sure what the oni wants only once, though. They seem to want everything over and over.
Sadly, the score disappears the instant the game is cleared. I still wonder if the big oni was worth more than 1 point.
Well, oni are also very forgetful. But thanks for the review!
The large oni has the mystical power of 2x sprite scale.
I put her at the end so people wouldn't think about it too hardShe's worth sixty centillion points.BTW, "sweet barley magic!" is an internal catchphrase of mine and seems to be an appropriate response to "sixty centillion points".
I like the good use of pixel art, the gameplay was simple but quite challenging as well
Nice work!
Very cute game, love the micromanagement!
