That's nice and well implemented. The atmosphere you created is also very cool with a good use of lighings.

I was a bit confused with the game play though. Are you supposed to get the red skulls or avoid them? I initially tried to collect them all but they really looked like the game over screen so after my first death I wasn't sure anymore.

Thanks for making this game!

This is really cool. I love how smooth the control and ennemies are.

Some improvements I could see benefiting the game:

- You could simplify your controls in the menus to a single button. I don't see a reason to have the space bar at the beginning then the right click when you want to restart.

- I'd pick a more abstract background than a brick wall. Maybe something reminiscent of the round shapes of the game?

Overall, it's a great little project and I loved how well it runs and how satisfying it is to play. Good job!

This is a very original game concept! Loved it!

The music's volume is a bit extreme though :P

Cool little platformer!

Arg I died just 5 turns before the end :(

It was a cool experience. I loved the ambiance and the gameplay is interesting.

I noticed a weird behavior with the dark overlay that is supposed to cover the right tab with the third level of research, it does not scale with the browser's zoom, so you can access them from the beginning if you zoom/unzoom the webpage.

Thanks for making this game!

As someone with a solid background in economics I can confirm that this game present a realistic depiction of economic mecanisms. Good job!

It's very well implemented good job. The game is hard though and a little unforgiving, but still, it's a very nice implementation of the genre. Good job!

This is a fun game, I liked the simple mechanic, thanks for making it!

Cool little interactive fiction, thanks for making it :)

This is quite a surprising scenario, to say the least... but it's very fun and it's made more interesting by the fact that the level changes over plays. Good job!

This is so over the top, I love it! Kids do not try this at home indeed!

You're one of the very few submissions that took the optional theme into account, big shout out to you for that! The game is fun and well implemented! Good job!

I just checked your game after ready your postmortem where you mention the good old Bowman flash game. I really felt the same vibe in your game plus all the funky power-ups that would populate the other flash game of that same period. I loved it, thanks for making it!

Just saying but this works well on mobile, you could edit your page settings to remove the disclaimer that it's not designed for mobiles.

Wow, this is really beautiful. The pixel art is gorgeous and the UI is also very polished. Good job!

Works very well on mobile too!

This is so funny and cute (I also love ducks in the real life although I agree then can look threatening sometimes)

Also, I did the game on mobile and was able to complete it without any issue. You might want to edit your page so it says the game is mobile friendly (that will get rid of the current disclaimer saying it's not)

Quack!

Haha, I agree the forest is an awesome biome.  Thank you so much for your words!

Thank you!

Thank you so much, we spent so much time on these parallax, I'm so happy to see people giving them some love :)

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

Thanks for your words!

I had exactly that gallery in my to do list at some point but I scrapped it to focus on more crucial points. That's good to know this is a feature players would actually look for, so I might just work on that if we end up updating the game after the jam.

Thanks again!

I'd be curious to know whether this is based on real eyesight test or not. I scored 9 in the 20 second runs, does that means anything?

Otherwise, it's a great game that does exactly what it says. The mechanic is simple but interesting. Good job!

Very good placement of the Wihelm scream :P

I hope I never encounter any oldish man with such weird bet ideas.

Fun game, thanks for making it!

This is the most epic Simon Says I ever played.

Thanks for making this, that was nice!

I like that mechanic! Although, is there an invisible wall at the end? There were a point where I felt I could no go any further.

Thanks for making that game!

This is very cool. The characters are funny, and I personally like typing mechanics (especially in the UI, it's so satisfying to type your way through menus :P). Great job!

Very cool atmosphere in the game. I loved the graphics and the sound design.

Some of the aliens are not easy to tell as they look a bit human shadow, but I guess it would have been too easy if everyone was covered by tentacles.

 Great job!

I liked feeling that I was a monstrous worm eating people alive and not an abstract rod pretending to be a snake. Good job on the design.

One issue I noticed, and I don't know if it's just me but the timer seemed off.

Anyways, that was good, thanks for making that game!

I  liked the graphics and the UI design is very polished. I loved the pixel art and the music. Thanks for making this :)

This is cool, nice music! Just to let you know, for me, the game lagged a lot on Firefox but it was much better on Chrome. You might want to put a disclaimer on your page just to let users know.

That's cute, I love the bird sound effects! Thanks for making this game!

You made a cool game with everything in it. As others have said, it's not easy to balance the two tasks at once so watch out for not making your levels too difficult. Regardless, it's a nice little game, thanks for making it!

I love he art and the picking sound is very satisfying. It's good work, thanks for making this!

Cool game, I loved the minimalist style and the music is very fitting. Good job!

I was going to mention your game, it's interesting to see how both of you treated a similar idea differently. Both games are awesome in their own ways!

Oh it wraps! That's cool!

Yeah, I agree being able to spot the monuments from afar was a good call, I haven't thought about that earlier.

It's fun trying to understand how this work. I have managed to unlock five buttons so far but I haven't beaten the game yet.

I will definitely come back to it, but I had a question for you: is the combination changing when a new button gets added? For instance, if the first button should be up, is that position going to be the same when the second button gets added?

Anyways, it's an interesting puzzle. Thanks for designing it!

Thank you so much!
