Thank you so so much for the kind words. We appreciate it a lot, especially coming from someone with such a well-crafted game themselves!

We put a lot of effort into polishing the game and are very happy it shows!

Fun fact, the custom cursor was added 5 min before submission :D

hey, a fellow text enthusiast!

I like the style, and clicking on marked words to progress feels nice!

Also, two themes is a nice touch :)

I love the look, great job!

Soundtrack was also dope and fit really well, gameplay was a bit hard to understand tho.

Great job and good luck in the jam!

Congrats on finishing your first game!

Controls are quite tricky and need some polish, but i like the look, especially the bloom on the lighting!

Nice job!

great presentation, nice art! the jetpack level is hard lol.

really like the music and the storytelling :)

good luck!

Fun minimalist gameplay, dope soundtrack.

Controls could use some work to feel more snappy, apart from that i really liked it!

It's pretty, too :)

Nice card game!

I liked the illustrations and the general premise :)

I would suggest some sound effects to make cards feel more impactful.

Great job!

Haha, thank you! Text-based games aren't for everyone, and we tried to keep it as short and concise as possible without sacrificing atmosphere/storytelling for the game jam.

Since the overall game flow is simple, we had enough time to focus on the polish :)

Thank you!

It's always a bit hit and miss with text-heavy games, so glad you liked it!

Thank you <3

Thank you! Good luck to you too!

Thank you <3

Thank you for the kind words!

Yeah, we figured the reading wouldn't be for everyone. Still glad you found it fun!

Thank you! Papers please was the vibe we were going for, so happy it clicked for some people :)

Yeah, we would've liked to make it a bit longer and more challenging, but in the end it needs to not be frustrating either for a jam as you said.

Thank you! Glad you liked your first try of the genre :)

way too addictive :D

feels very polished, nice graphics, decent challenge level.

well rounded game :)

cute, chocolate biscuit + coffee rule supreme!

nice interpretation of the theme, i had some issues with the scaling however. had to zoom in a lot for the text to be legible.

great job tho!

very cute, felt like it was easy to get into a flow which is good!

graphics were nice, and i also liked the soundtrack :)

Good job!

Why the hell is this so enjoyable lol.

nice platformer,  would greatly benefit from a basic fast paced sountrack :)

Also: AHHH!

First of all: YAY, IT RUNS ON STEAM DECK!

Fun, original  idea, nice execution.

Would recommend adding a menu to adjust the brigthness and making the player camera lock onto the text of whichever kettle is currently talking.

Fun game, my best time was 12 :)

Very good theme fit, and quite entertaining. Had to play a couple of rounds before i won :D

I also liked the drawings and artstyle a lot, a bit more stuff happening visually would help, e.g. some particles or a more engaging background.

Great job tho, really liked it!

Cool game, and finally the first pico 8 i stumble across!

Looks really good and feels super polished, my only gripe is that theres no music - that would really help! do you know beepbox? thats whta i use for retro games :)

but great job and really challenging :)

very cute and polished game!

Visuals and music are great, and it fits the theme really well!

Maybe a bit more pressure in the beginning would up the ante, and a track preview would be nice.

Great job tho!

Thank you for the nice words!

Yeah, we would've liked to write more encounters, but in the end we focused on polish over quantity.

Sucks to hear about the resolution, which device did you play on?

I think you're allowed to add sth to the description, if that helps:)

nice little game, i liked the art, both in the gameplay and the cover/stills in the game!

had a fun few minutes with it, of course there are a couple of bugs but still good work :)

Really liked i, fun gambling mechanic (is that a societal issue? that gambling's just too much fun? naaaaaaaah)

Anyway,the gameplay loop was nice and the basic premise communicated clearly. i didn't really understand what some of the effects did, so that's maybe something to illustrate a bit better.

Also it felt like the player's hitbox was pretty big. i think it would feel better it it was a bit smaller to give the player some more leeway and more rewarding "close escapes" instead of "hey, i dodged that".

Nice graphics and sound too btw!

thank you! we put a lot of work into it, particularly the pixel art :)

i think in a full game we would make the text blocks a bit shorter so t here's more clicking and deciding between all the reading.

and of course you had to play bob :-P

thank you, glad you liked it!
yeah, text-based games aren't for everyone, so we hoped to convince some people thru vibe :D

I love the bunny animation, the art style is very cute!

Would love to see it once it's finished :)

fun idea, feels a bit like mine sweeper.

also you're definitely risking it for the biscuit in this one :D

good job!

cute graphics and fun gameplay!

i particularly liked the pot and pastry boy animations, those are very cute :)

nicely executed, fun gameloop!
Some different walking speeds and maybe 2 or 3 power ups would be dope, but it's a lot of fun the way it is.

good job :)

Definitely looks like a T-Rex mage too.

I liked the models and the betting mechanic!

Thank you!

Great to hear that at least some of the jokes hit their mark :D

Happy you like the ending, too, and thank you for spoiling the others ;)

Thank you!

Yeah we were considering reducing the text a bit but thought you know, if we do something like a graphic novel we might as well have some longer encounters :D

Really nice! A bit more exposition would be good, but I at least caught on quickly.

The graphics look good, the beat is dope, and the story is fun.

In general, seems very polished!

Liked it a lot :)

retro shooters are always dope!

i liked the racoon ragdoll bits best :D

Fun concept, nice levels!

I think I encountered some bugs where I couldn't respawn despite having biscuits. Still, fun experience!
