Well, I was very bad at this but gave it a few good gos! Some of the best pixel art I've seen, so clean and well shaded/contrasted. Loved the music too. Great submission!

Key TwisterGreat aesthetics and nice idea, but it was too hard for me (maybe it could be fixed by adding a few lives per try?). Also for example the first level layout was a bit tricky since you need to go to the wall, make the flail attack it, then make the flail go back to you and finally go through the hole (I think that room should be easier/quicker).
Anyway, it's definitely a great submission, congrats!

Hero of the DesertGreat job putting something together in pico8. Concept for the game is real nice as well, challenging, but generally quite fair. So it takes a bit to master.

Blob HoardI'm always down for a good challenge so long as it's fair! It was most certainly challenging, but overall I'd say it was fair considering that you had 48 hours to both make, test, and iterate. Definitely room for more iterating, but like, that's kinda the point! Great job with your concept too!

Slime FarmerIncredibly solid. Really enjoyed my time with it. I love how mean the flail is. Nice job!

Kreepy and KrawlyYour concept is very innovative, although for now this game is extremely challenging. What impressed me the most is your time before deadline :D

To the middleoof, it's a bit too challenging for me but I absolutely recommend checking this game out. a unique idea (I played a lot of submissions but never played anything like this) mixed with cool teeny-tiny pixel art. high on my list, well done!

I JUMP TOO!Bro. If I die, I die. But If HE dies... I DIE??? Yet, HE's trying to kill ME? X)
That felt so unfair bro X). Through the whole game you really feel a threat constantly behind you. A threat that you're supposed to protect. Dammit! X)
But when you finally master the game tho. It feels GOOD. Like if I was toying around with a bull in a colloseum! X)
The game looks NICE! The music and sound effect really fit the atmosphere. That was nice! :D

PIGGY TO CANADA! (GMTK 2021)Absolutely loved the idea behind it! Also, the art and music are lovely. The only thing I would give as feedback is that the game itself is quite tricky, getting frustrating rather quickly. Once balanced I am sure it will be brilliant. Good job!

Inferno - GMTK2021Absolutely stunning pixel art, this game is ridiculously pleasing to look at.
Great job!
