Loved this.
Out of all the games I tested out this jam this one I'll recommend a few friends try too :)

- I like how well all the assets fit together
- Nailed the core loop
- Seeing the pizza get incrementally more complete exclusively from player actions is very satisfying
- Really funny voice lines and great delivery on them. Once I made one mistake and had the pigeon react to it I had to try out what other funny voicelines I could trigger.
- Love the funny premise


Wishlist/Random ideas as tribute:
- Wish there was an appropriately humorous way to consult current pigeon's impatience.
- Noticed a money score tally at the end but didn't see it midgame, would be fun to watch your score increase as you go if the final goal is a score chase. Wondered if the game had an ending but assumed not.

- Weird that you can jump but not do anything with it. Wish you could escape the counter for a bad/weird/funny escape the system ending.
- Always like the kind of inputs that don't serve a real purpose other than player expression, especially in loops where there is some downtime (waiting for the pizza). Jumping gives you something to fiddle with but it doesn't feel inherently pigeony or mafia pigeony. I'd love a funny button to just coo or do something only a pigeon does or only a mafia pigeon does :)

Thank you for trying out the game as well as the really in-depth response!! :)

The voice lines were a little detail I loved working on, I think I have a unique voice line for each possible way you can fail making the piece (as long as you specifically only got 1 thing wrong), but I feel I made the game a little too easy that some people missed them! Something I wish I tweaked some more before the deadline

I REALLY wanted to get a good way to show off the impatience, I was going to just have them progressively shaking more as they get more impatient but I think I ended up forgetting towards the end which was sad LMAO

Money originally was going to have a use! But then I had it at the end to be some sort of "scoring" :) I wish I could've done a lot more with it, I agree it would have made it so much better.

I completely forgot I even added jumping honestly, I always add it because I feel weird not being able to jump but I do agree that sometimes it's not necessary so I'll keep that in mind for next time LMAO

I think I'm going to take your last point and use this in a future game honestly, I think it would add so much personality and I love the idea of just having a lil useless button just for that ahahah

Thank you so much for all the feedback, it's super useful to know for future jams and I'm really glad you enjoyed the Pigeon Mafia! Hopefully you'll see more of them in the future :)
