Overall:
I really enjoyed the game; the varied puzzles and the simple yet coherent pixel art contributed greatly to that. The controls work well, and solving the puzzles is fun. I needed several attempts, but in the end I managed to beat it. The game kept me motivated to keep trying — it always felt like it could be done eventually, so the timer was a meaningful and fitting addition to the gameplay. The ending came a bit suddenly; perhaps a slightly longer fade-outāfade-in would already help. But for a jam game, itās absolutely fine! I found the final file a bit tricky 8D
Graphics:
Coherent, simple pixel art. Thereās not much to criticize here — the color palette was consistent as well. A slight idle animation for the character might be nice, or at least having them stand still properly. The only thing I found a bit too simple was the start menu; using more of the gameās colors and adding a hover effect for the buttons would have been great.
Music:
The menu music matched the retro feeling well; I would have kept the in-game music in the same style. As it was, I found it a bit less fitting — it could have built up more tension. The UI sounds are well chosen (e.g., after clicking the button in the main menu).
Theme:
It took place in a single room and on a PC — which worked perfectly for me!
Conclusion:
An interesting puzzle game with a humorous theme and a very fitting timer element — a great entry!
