Wow, a super simple and polished game here! I loved the aesthetics, the theme and the humour. The reward at the end was completely unexpected and brilliant. Congrats on the submission 😎

Thanks so much for the feedback. Comments like this make the late nights worth it :)

That is a really enjoyable submission! The game is pretty simple, but the aesthetics, the rotating gameplay and the humaour definitely makes it stand out. Great job on the game!

Developer(+1)

Glad you had a good time with it. Thanks

Nice!! One smaöö critique is that the animation on the tornado spiral when changing level can be slightly problematic for sensitive players (it gives me motion sickness, but I am indeed fairly sensitive). Maybe an option to disable that would be a nice touch!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Working on a couple different effects and ideas replace the dizzying spiral. Sadly it's taking a bit longer than I had hoped to get it the way I want.

Really nicely done! Probably the most unique and on-point melding of them and game-play I've seen this Jam. I especially enjoyed the music and the doggies! Keep up the great work! :-)

Developer

Big thanks! Happy you enjoyed it

Just wanted to say right back at you, congratulations for a great game, I just had to play it again :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! And thanks for sharing your pup too :)

Submitted(+1)

Love this concept! Thanks you for the really friendly UI and intro as well! You made sure pressing was enjoyable and overall just enjoyable UI!

A small gripe was that as I was loading the start, I accidentally clicked quit while I was loading the game, maybe a smaller quit button would help? 😅

Overall I really enjoyed this concept! Aesthetics are pleasing, and really user-friendly:) Good job!

Developer(+1)

Oh shoot, good call about the quit button. Agreed, it's way too big. Will shrink that down in the next update.  Thanks for the feedback. Really happy you enjoyed it!

I loved the cute pictures we were rewarded with for beating the game! Great job on this. The cows were pretty difficult to avoid at first but I got the hang of it. I will say though that the sound effect for hitting something scared me to death each time it was played... maybe tone that one down a bit as it's pretty jarring. Excellent job overall!

Developer

You're right, that was much too loud. When I adjusted the music, I forget to look at the effects too. They've all been cut in half now, so it should be better. Thanks for checking it out!

Submitted(+1)

I loved the ending! That's such a neat idea and I love it being tied to your deeds while playing. I thought this concept and gameplay was really unique and interesting. Great story and theme!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Nice mechanics. Couldn't play for long though, I got seasick

Developer

Thanks for the comment. Sorry it made you feel sick  - I'm trying a couple of things to reduce the potential for motion sickness, so hopefully that will be ready for the next update.

This was really fun and a very uniqe gameplay as well.

Submitted(+1)

This was a fun game! I especially liked the pictures at the end :) 

The only thing I'd say is the first time I accidentally touched the cow the sound made me jump, it was a little louder than the rest. Good job for adding a volume button though :D!

Overall it was a good game, well done!

Developer

Hey, really appreciate the feedback. Glad you had fun with it.


You're definitely right about the sounds. That was wayy to loud. I had updated the music volume but missed some of the effects. Should be better now :)

Submitted(+1)

Really fun and unique idea! I like the procedural/random generation of power-ups, as well as the multiple fun items which both helped and hindered you. It feels like a quality Mario Party mini-game, only with more depth. Losing only one "level" of progress when you accrue too much negative levity is a good way to handle checkpointing. Good fun!

Amusing aside: seeing myself referred to as "Young soul" was a funny meta moment (look at my username!)

P.S. I assume you know about this and it's just a bug due to limited time, but if you set your UI anchors for the canvas elements in the intro, they should scale regardless of the user's resolution (mine were clipping a bit in the WebGL window)

Developer(+1)

Hey thanks for the great feed back, young soul.


Glad you pointed out the UI anchoring. I'm pretty bad with the UI side of things. Going to play around a bit with that.

Developer

Thanks for the kind note!

Really nice :) I had fun to play and it fits the theme just right :)

Developer

Awesome, glad you enjoyed

I liked this entry. The calming music, crazy level design, and the simple collecting mechanic made this all meld together really well.

When the house tried to smush me I was legit scared I was going to go down a floor again, haha.

Developer

Thanks a lot. Means a lot that you enjoyed it. Hoping to make some more intense moments like the house later on (as well as some calm moments)
