Wow! I’m in awe of what you achieved for this jam. This feels like a full-fledged game. It was incredibly fun, challenging, and rewarding to play. I would love a multiplayer mode so I could play it with my niece. I’d also want the option to turn off the ‘red juice’ in the rat mini game when playing with her. Funny enough, I don’t mind the alcohol references or feeding the fish with a guy, but the red juice gave me pause. Maybe that just means it’s not really a kids game, or maybe I’m being too particular.
Either way, I had an absolute blast and can see this becoming a super fun party game. If the controls were expanded to include gamepad support, I’d love to put it on the TV and play with my family. I can also see it working really well on iPad with touch controls.
The art, sound effects, music, font, and UI/UX were all fantastic. I did have a little trouble understanding a few of the mini games, so a practice round or clearer instructions would be nice, but I was still able to figure it out quickly. That’s just me being picky, it wasn’t a showstopper.
Well done! I’m honestly in awe of what you pulled off.
