This is really cool! a simple concept but it works fantastic! I can't believe you made your own music too :O

Please can you rate my game if you get some time please? :D

Spot on with the theme, and I really enjoyed the roguelite elements you worked into it, which turned a simple mechanic into something a bit deeper. Kept me playing to the end, so nice work.

Submitted

Nice game! Cool retro artstyle and music and simple to play.

Submitted

Haha neat but simple concept! I like how you did a spin on rogue-like

Submitted

Wow, love the art and how well it fits the theme! Nice music and the rogue-like aspect makes it fun to keep playing! Nice work!

Was a funt ake on the genre. Well done :) was not sure how to use some of the items but it was ok anyway, well done :)

Submitted

Neat idea nicely done! The items are probably too cheap, as it didn't take long for me to be buying 12 items each round and finding myself unable to fail.

Great cute game! Great variety of monster art. The items are super helpful. Great job on the jam!

Submitted

REALLY interesting idea! It could be more polished but the gameplay works like a charm and is very original.

Submitted

Fun! Interesting idea!

Played it for a while, my memory is not great so I bailed at 7x7 lvl but from what I can see from the screenshot of the guy below me it was the last lvl. Its great game, the items you introduce are realy usefull and trap mechanic works nicely, great job!

Loved this game, beat it twice!

Dam! Wat a good idea, 100000 points for the creative to go with the theme!!! It makes my idea look like crap in terns of theme.

Submitted

Great idea. An old gameplay that fits well in the theme with a shop as a twist.

This was so much fun! Genuinely a joy to play. I love this take on the classic memory matching game--the traps, store items, and hotel theming made it feel fresh. I thought the monsters talking in the store was a really nice touch, too; I was always excited at the end of the round to see what they were chatting about. The music and the monster designs were also great; overall it has a really nice retro game feel.

The dialogue between guests was a verrryy last minute inclusion from us, basically  all written in the final hours. Glad to see that people enjoyed it!
