Very polished and impressive! I've heard it's a huge pain to make minigame compilations like this, so it's great to see one that's so well-made overall. The art is fantastic, fits the tone super well. Some of my favorite little touches were Joe getting hit by the title screen menu, the tray minigame having Joe suddenly be a stick figure, and of course the design of the bully. Lots of attention to detail, with little gags inserted at opportune moments.

There were a few minigames at the start that felt a little unclear. It took me like 5 tries to understand what was going on with "Tame that mane," and the detection seems to be above the comb rather than on the teeth of the comb where I'd expect. With catching the toothbrush, I was confused as to whether it was going to be an A button or D-pad game, and the button prompt comes in right at the end. My hand also missed the toothbrush despite it seeming like I grabbed it. There were quite a few minigames (particularly the ones with a hand coming in) where I wasn't sure if it was a D-Pad game, and it gave me a little trouble. But after those first few games, everything seemed really clear on the most part.

WarioWare does have the benefit of repeating minigames and increasing the pacing over time, leaning into high scores. It really helps them with that frantic, engaging non-stop action. I do think the pacing in this is very good overall, it doesn't need to be WarioWare, but I do think you could've gotten away with repeating a few more minigames with harder/faster versions and possibly some comedic new context. Like having to flick flies away from the flowers after falling into the sewer. But it's great overall.

Now we need a sequel with Pretty Patty where she faces similarly ridiculous scenarios on her way to the date.

Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review! <3 I agree we need a sequel with Patty or a post-jam version at the very least haha.
