This game looks so good for a jam game! And with the music it was really engrossing, great job!

I love the aesthetic of this, so charming! I think you did a great job with pacing too, the game was just challenging enough and the perfect length for a jam entry IMO.

Oh wow this game oozes with charm. The whole vibe of this is just *chef's kiss*. Congratz! 10/10 would conga with the bois again anytime.

Such a great game, the art style is amazing and the concept is really fun. The only suggestion I have is make the cops a little clearer as they currently look a bit like the other animals so I kept on running into them and being confused why everyone was leaving me lol. But once I got the hang of it the game was really good, nice job.

Really cool aesthetic and idea. Having to use the bathroom as well was a cool and funny mechanic as well. Having to dodge the cops was a little annoying though since I wasn't entirely sure how far I was from them. I think some shadows would have worked in judging the distance between various characters. Still though, it's a cool concept and was fun

Wow the sound-design really fits the game, good job! Especially that the sound gets more if you get more people to follow you.

I like how you created this game out of the theme. It was actually pretty fun to play and the only thing I would criticize is that it took me very long to find the last person before I could run into the building. Maybe you could have added an arrow or something which is pointing to the nearest person like the arrow at the end.

Nevertheless a very succeeded game :D

Holy shit this game has SO much character & flair.  This is incredible, it's clear your team has a really good eye for designing games, and just a good artistic eye.  I had a lot of fun rounding everything up, I love that the people groove, popping a bottle rounds them up and not to do it too much cause you'd piss yourself.  

I think you scoped just the right amount for this, it feels like a memorable experience that doesn't try to be too much more.  It kinda feels like Pac-Man with the people you pick-up being like Sonic's stars, maybe having a bunch more maps with new types of stuff to avoid would really turn this into something cool.  

Really fun, really well done, great job!

Would appreciate you taking a look at ours if you have a chance as well :)

Probably didn't take the most efficient route to round up people but hey it was a lot of fun~
Didn't realise people dropped out of the line until I had most of them but that was a nice addition.
nice work!

The game is amazing, the rithm of the music fits perfectly with the art style and the gameplay to create a feeling of a party.

I think this game probably has the most unique art style of any of the games I've played so far! I also like how simple it was, you can just jump straight into the game! The ending was also very satisfying to watch as the entire conga line raids the mayor's building. The only thing I would add is maybe an indicator of where other dancers are when the player hasn't found another one after a while, finding the final two dancers was very difficult. Other than that though, great game with a very unique art style!

Developer(+1)

Thanks, glad you liked it! I agree that the final couple of dancers are hard to find, but on the other hand this encourages the increased use of bottles so it's a trade-off for sure.

I really enjoyed playing this game! The graphics are very good and the game fits the theme perfectly. Awesome! Please check out my game too :)

Super fun idea and super charming! I wish the police felt more of a threat, they didn't do anything when they passed by/through my line. Also, I circled the map 2-3 times before I finally found dancer #20. Even using the bottle didn't attract them. However, the overall idea and the art style more than make up for that frustration. Great job!

I swear those cops are dancing too and yet THEY aren't the ones getting arrested.  We truly do live in a society.

Love the graphics! I included it in my GMTK compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Developer (1 edit)

Oh wow, what an honor, great video! Glad you like it!

Developer

Wow, that's so cool! That was a really exciting video too, not to mention the dedication to cover so many games. I laughed more than once, especially at your reaction to the cop who was trying to blend in with the conga line. Thank you so much for covering our game!

Awesome art style and a great idea.

Developer

Thank you! :D

I love mix of 2D and 3D art style is really original, short fun game.

Developer

Thank you! It's hard to pick one, they're both so fun to work with! :P

This was cute and fun short little game! I like the art style it reminds me of a pop up book, and the colorful animals was soo cute.


I especially liked how as the conga line grew bigger more instruments started being played, made it really exiting and fun, and I also love the sway the line has.


Also, really good job with the bottles, port-a-potties, and cops. Really emphasized and made the moment to moment decision making a lot more engaging and fun.


This was a short fun game and I enjoyed it a lot!

Developer

Thanks for the in-depth review, happy to see that our efforts were appreciated :)

Developer

Thank you, that is really nice to hear! There were of course a good amount of different ideas, along with the typical "do we really have time to not only create this mechanic, but also test it out, squash any potential bugs, and figure out if it actually makes the game more fun?" question that I'm sure everyone here is familiar with. I'm very glad to hear that you enjoyed them, it means a lot. Much appreciated!

Nice art and music! Great job!

Developer

Thank you! It would of course have been fun to try and make some original music too, but I'm glad we found these because I definitely feel like they fit very well.

Submitted(+2)

Haha, that's so cute! Art and sounds - all polished really well. Good idea to implement WCs. Great entry! 

Developer(+1)

Haha, thank you! Any game with an interactive toilet kicks my personal rating up by at least a few points, I'm always gonna include one if it's possible.

Love the art and general vibe.

Developer

Thank you! :D
