LOVED IT

One of my favourite games of the Jam so far! Has a great sense of personality and I really FELT like a dog trying to save earth.

Laughed at the strong ending and ended up speedrunning it to see how fast I could save our earth.

Amazing work!

An absolutely adorable mini-game with adorable art to boot. Really rewards you for discovery in a satisfying way.

Does anyone know how to solve the 5x5 pannel?

Developer(+1)

Have a look around- there is a clue to help you figure out the pattern on another part of the ship ;) 

Submitted

I've seen the clue, but thanks.

Developer(+1)

the solution is to follow the yellow line, and turn the keys on at the points where the line turns. I hope you can make it to the end- the winscreen is one of my favourite bits! Thanks for playing :)

Finally finished it! Thank you! Altough I had already given it 5 stars before I finished it, so I can't make it up to you.

By the way I found your game because I'm looking at creators that impressed me last year. You never dissapoint!

Developer(+1)

Hooray! Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for playing and for your nice comments :)

Very cool!!!!

The beginning was a bit rough in terms of just being able to figure out what I was supposed to do... but I love the idea and how cute it is and the random generation. Reminds me a lot of Spaceteam!

Submitted(+1)

This concept can be easily expanded to turn into its own thing. I love it!

This is the kind of beautiful polished gem that could only come out of a game jam. I love how it zooms out as you solve puzzles, and there's a couple different ones available at each zoom level. I'm also a fan of how it starts of frantic, but eventually you've slowed things down enough that you have time to figure stuff out. And a hand-drawn art style to boot. Super cool.

I really like how you took this and could definitely see this becoming a full-fledged game with multiple scenarios and lots of rng. Wouldn't call it completely original as it is very similar to Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, but the time dilation of a single second manages to keep it fresh with similar but intensified stakes and delivers a nice take on the theme too.

Submitted(+1)

This is really cool!!!

It's a common genre to play with buttons etc to figure out how to beat the game, it's not really original in that sense but theres no much you can do to fix that with this genre, the art style and game is cute though.

Design[4/5] Missing the "only one" mechanic a bit in gameplay. It's mostly clicking buttons in time.
Theme[4/5] You do really feel like you're the ONLY ONE able to safe the earth! However like I said it is not really part of the game mechanic here.
Originality[5/5] Fun take on the 'only one earth'-like games.

Developer

The mechanic is to solve puzzle to slow down time because you have "only one second" to finish the game. The idea was to make a game that have to be finished in one second. 🙂

Thanks for the rating!

Submitted(+1)

Aha I didn't notice that you slow down time by solving the puzzles!
I guess I'll give 5 stars for theme as well then :)

Also really like the art style and feeling of the game in general.

Submitted

hahaha, thanks for making this game, had a lot of fun playing it. If you have time please add more levels later.

Submitted(+1)

Really cool and frenetic  gameplay! But volume settings are much needed because the music is very loud.

Submitted(+2)

This game caused a scene at the office as we all tried to solve it together!

I almost quit but we made it at the end (I especially like the note at the right with the zigzag instructions).

Just amazing wow!

Hey, we made a GMTK game too. Check it out!

Submitted(+1)

haha! it's super funny! I like it, I couldn't get past the emergency recruit puzzle, but good job developer!

Very nice, I really feel like a dog trying to paw at controls

Absolutely adorable! Probably one of my favorites in this jam. It was worth a second playthrough just for that secret.

Submitted(+1)

OMG, I loved so much this game. The "boop" when the earth destroyed was very funny. Pushing button as fast as possible was very satisfying. Great job!

Submitted(+1)

I really really like the cartoon aesthetics, And the comedy was a very fine icing on the cake!

Nice work guys!
