Concept and graphics are lovely, but I couldn't figure out the gameplay. If you had more time, a tutorial or hints would be nice!

This was a very unique game with a puzzle concept I've never seen implemented before. It was annoying at first for me because I believed that Trudy's location was basically random and my success was based on luck, but once I figured out that Trudy tends to settle in certain locations and this was actually a deduction game, it was very satisfying when I successfully inferred her location and won a few games. The way this game teaches you is really elegant--I can only suggest being more generous to the player in the beginning, like changing the game over sound, which was pretty abrupt and added to my slight frustration.

Buzz Off!I like to see the usage of Pico-8! The game was fun and I like how the puzzle aspect works, it takes some time to figure it out! Very creative, nice work!

Just Let Me CodeIt was confusing at first but realizing the clues to deduce where Trudy likely is was pretty satisfying. great visuals and effects!

Tower ChargeReally cool. I think I'm starting to figure out where trudy likes to go. I finally got a win after 7 games or so. I like the concept a lot, it reminds me of minesweeper. Graphics are great too! One suggestion, move Trudy's game over text off the game board, so that the player can study clues for where Trudy spawned. The text was blocking so I couldn't see the clues as well. Or maybe you want it that way for more challenge! Either way, good job!

LivmialonI didn't find out the Trudy's location conditions. Sometimes I thought I could but then my theories are denied. But really cool procedural gen. Sure there must be a way to find out.
Cool entry!

Roswell FarmingI absolutely loved the retro vibe, graphics, vfx, and sound were spot on! The gameplay was a little bit confusing at first, but grew on me as I played!
