This game is really well put together the visuals are clean, the gameplay feels polished, and the concept is both simple and surprisingly deep. It’s one of those titles you try for a few minutes and end up playing much longer than expected because of how addictive it is. Some of the balance could use a tweak, but overall it’s a fun and impressive jam entry. Playing gems like this always reminds me of why I love jams, and I’d be glad if you also gave my own submitted game a try.

These kind words mean a lot to us! We really wanted to create a game that we ourselves would have had fun playing and we are very pleased with how it turned out. I totally agree that there is the need for some tweaking here and there and we are actually planning on some additional features once the jam is over, so any kind of suggestions/criticism is always welcome. I'll definetly try your game out, thanks again for your comment!
I was thinking that a good improvement could be to add things similar to Buckshot Roulette, that game where you fight against an AI using some items and trying to guess whether the next bullet will work or not. In the same way, you could create a series of items inspired by that game to try to guess whether the chest is a mimic or not. With lots of functionalities, it would give the game wonderful replayability.
