Shame about the bug :( was that a slim shady reference in the same song as a young gravy reference? lol
Typing some thoughts as I play:
- SFX are good, deliver a good ambiance
- Scene transitions are a little jarring and could be smoother
- the scare sound is very loud and kept repeating when advancing the dialogue (also the simon says game kept going)
- I’m guilty of this a lot too but the sprites sometimes have different resolution and it makes it feel a bit inconsistent, overall the art is good tho
- the family member face in the “don’t get spotted” game is creepy as hell
Indeed many references in those 3 songs! Each level has a different one :)
I do agree with the scaring sound, need to fix that. The transition was supposed to be abrupt, although I hope it doesn't hurt the gameplay.
I hope you enjoyed! (And not spooked too bad with my pixel art faces)
Regarding the bug,if you like - feel free to stick around, I'll upload the fixed version after the jam!
Cool game! The idea behind is really good (even if very dramatic lol) and i liked the minigames. I found each minigame a bit too easy, but that's not a big problem (maybe in future updates director's cut could have a more difficult version of each minigame?). I enjoyed music and visuals too.
Thanks alot! Glad you had fun :)
The first levels are indeed easy, but when you win them you unlock the next, harder levels for the next playthrough! Then you can achieve a higher age. Also, if you just want to try the hard levels without restarting, just play in the Easy Mode :)
If even those levels are easy for you then maybe a special hell mode can be added for some extreme gameplay!
Really nice game, I'm really curious to see the rest of it!
Congratulations!
Some feedback: I think you can improve the UX with better fonts, also when you finish a challenge you should "freeze" all the controls and enemy AI.
honestly really nice! the games were fun and i would have loved to play the rest of them and see the story! :D sad about the bug tho :(
This is nice idea and an interesting approach to a story. The cat game was hilarious, and trickier than it looked. It's a shame about the bug, but the first few games gave a good taste of the full thing at least. The graphics are pretty good but do mix styles a bit. I like the music and sound. Good work!
This was really cool! A pretty original premise, and a nice variety of fresh gameplay. And although the challenges keep changing, the controls are always intuitive. Props for that.
Minor gripe: In Memory 2, note that you use pixel graphics in inconsistent resolutions... that is always a bit jarring to me.
Opinion: Easy Mode should be the default.
A real pity that 60% of the content is currently inaccessible. Of course, I know how last-minute bugs can find their way into code in jam crunch time. :)
the game is well made some passion went into it the puzzles were unique and fun , I was stuck on stay on green however , I finished but it seems like the cutscene didn't play at all but thats fine the game is well made and that enough 5/5 for everything!
Great minigame collection, good graphics.
But dying while reading the cutscene dialogue was annoying. And I couldn't select easy mode as the description says.
Thank you for the feedback! Much appreciated :)
Selecting the modes should be done with the arrow keys, and not the mouse. I'll add that to the game page just in case.
Regarding the cutscene dying - that shouldn't happen, it's a bug. Mind telling me in which memory was it? I'll fix that and re-upload once the jam is over.
I was confused with the game mode because the arrows light up when clicked.
I found in learning and sneaking, when the doctors speak, the game continues in the background and is able to be failed.
Also, in dancing, I can't unlock the higher levels, two dialogues load "..." and "You think he'll make it", but the only the "..." disappears
And, in the sneaking game when two elderly are beside each other they sometimes won't move and I have to quit to menu
Yes sadly the version that was uploaded was apparently wrong and the game can't proceed past dancing, which is the 4th memory, out of 10. So about ~60% of the game is unavailable at the moment. I updated that on the game page for others to see aswell, that kinda sucks.
Once again thank you for the input, that's much appreciated and those bugs shouldn't have happened - I'll fix them when the rating period is over.
Wasn't expecting multiple games at once, each of these could be their own submission! Very good!
This is a very fun game! I love the concept of growing up after every mini-game is finished.
this is a fun game,it reminds me of wario ware and there are enough mini games to keep it entertaining
