This was unique. Graphics are very nice. Simple but very fun.

Developer

I got a score of 101, I really enjoyed this game and liked the theming you did for it, one of my reapers bugged and wouldn't complete their collection so played from about 30 to 101 with 3 reapers. Nice touch adding speed to the car so the game remained possible, I was worried that wouldn't be in there but was pleasantly surprised to see that it was.

Thanks so much for playing! Interesting bug, I'll make a note of it. Thanks for the catch. Loved your game!

this was cute!! i liked the style of it and the overall design. it was a fun concept that i havent seen yet over the... many games ive played LOL!

Thank you so much! Since it was our first jam we needed to pass on all our more ambitious ideas for the theme, but I think it worked out pretty well for making something unique. The art in yours is much cuter, though! Haha

It's a cool idea, but I think some of the reapers are not doing their job properly.

Developer

It's 1 reaper for 1 soul; if they finish the one they're assigned to their animation will change to idling (and purple progress bar will disappear, but the bar is behind the reapers so some resolutions/scaling we didn't test for may have a harder time seeing the progress bar). When they're idling you need to click them again to re-activate them, their reaping animation and progress bar will restart :) If we had more time we would've tweaked it more for better communication with the player (and a short tutorial), but with the constraints of the jam, these notes could only be included in the instructions on the menu screen.

Thanks so much for playing! Played & rated your game as well :)

I loved being a Reaper Uber! The souls are also really well done. It was really nice in the later game when the car moved around faster.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Really enjoyed your game as well!

It's like an Uber Grim Reaper service haha. Great work! Cool idea.

The difficulty is very well thought out because it seems like it'll be very easy at first, but it scales appropriately. Good job.

Please rate our game if possible <3.

Developer

Thanks so much! Played & rated Pepito ^-^

This is really cute! I enjoyed playing a lot, and it was simple enough to pick up but the difficulty definitely picks up as you play!

Developer

Thanks so much!

Had fun playing it. Simple enough to pick up and I managed to score 50 points! I like that the car speeds up as the spawn rate increases aswell. I could see this game being enhanced further and be a cool level based time-management game :D Well done!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! Yeah since it was our first jam we wanted to focus on making a good short experience to help avoid overscoping, but if we were to build it out into a full game this would be more like an arcade mode type of thing where everything auto-scales and you just try to last as long as you can, and the other game mode would allow you to choose upgrades after each level or something like that.

Played & rated your game as well! Was fun seeing a totally different 'arcade' type game.

Simple game with a sharp artstyle.
Fun to play for a few minutes!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing! Glad you liked it. Left a comment on your submission page & looking forward to trying your game, as well.

Very nice game! I like the clean art style and simple controls. Overall, a really nice game. Keep it up.

Developer

Thanks so much! Played & rated yours as well :)

A nice, simplistic art style and a cool take on the theme. I wish it were more obvious where the car was going or what the reapers were doing.

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for playing! Yeah it was next on our list to communicate more about what was going on as we felt certain things weren't very clear. For example, the car and reapers get faster at certain milestones to help keep up with that the souls start spawning in faster. Our original vision also included like a queue so you could plan ahead a bit. But being our first jam and my co-creator's busy work schedule during the jam, we didn't get to those features unfortunately. Thanks again for playing. Played & rated your game as well :)
