Very cute audio and story. The game was cool but it got a little frustrating since it's mainly how accurately can you click the people. I think making that a little more forgiving could be better like with slightly larger hitboxes.
OH yeah! This is actually chaotic and FUN!
Loved the audio design.
Hilarious dialogues like these got me cracking up. EVen when I got FIRED!

Super well done, congrats!
I need to get this off my chest though - the hitboxes for the space you can click needs to be bigger. The game was difficult because my clicks didn't register if the people moved even slightly before I clicked. The gameplay challenge is getting them all in place within a time window, and feeling like you grabbed a person but you actually didn't is a huge feels bad moment. The game was fun, but missing clicks when being really close to victory was infuriating. I wanted to finish the last level, but it was too frustrating.
I led with that negative because this game is really good. Everything fits great, the music and art (even if simple) go really well together. The theme and dialogue are amusing. And outside the above issue, the game feels really well balanced, too. The levels I finished felt pretty close to the timer without feeling impossible. This is an excellent jam entry. You killed it. And I don't normally say what I rated, but I want you to know the above gripe did not impact your rating. The hitbox is just a polish thing. Everything else about this design and implementation is rock solid.
Great job and keep making great games :)
Cool game really fun but maybe a little more feedback when you put the little people in their designated zone like some sort of animation or something.
Great job tho super addictive.
Very fun and engaging game. I love the concept of the game and your interpretation of the theme. The cartoony art style was also very good. My only problem was that it was quite hard to pick the people up when you are in levels that are zoomed out a lot since they are small but other than that a great game overall. Good luck on the jam!
i first of all wondered how this got 60+ votes then i played the game, now i don't regret
nice game and you earned all my five stars!!
how long did this take to finish btw? kinda curious
Thank you. :) Personally, I was also surprised how fast I got rates. Especially since the last jam I did ended bad lol.
It took me most of the week to get the main functions down, ie. dialogue, grabbing, the crowd system, winning/losing, etc... I did most of the main level design over the week, and did sound, the last level, the main menu, and some polish on the last two days. So, pretty evenly divided throughout the week.
Awesome! Very fun and simple! I couldn't quite beat the last level!
Fun game, the difficulty ramps up quickly haha, also the sound effects are amazing! I love them <3
it's really fun. the music and SFX are perfect! the concept fits the theme so well!
Well done!
Very chaotic, theme matched very well, sound and music are nice. Good game for a Jam. Just next time team up with some graphics dude ;)
