Hi! I really enjoy cosy games and I’d be excited to work on the art for your game.  I’m looking to expand into providing artwork that includes iconography so this project seems like the perfect stepping stone. I make my own games too, so you can see my pixel art style. https://gorzylla.itch.io/

Please get in touch with me at gorzylla@gmail.com so that we can discuss further on your protect needs/timeline/budgets and I can provide a few samples for your game, then you can decide if I’m a good fit. Looking forward to hearing from you guys!

Hi Fabo, I love the art style in the example you gave and would be interested in drawing and animating the assets you need. I make my own games mainly for the Gameboy too! https://gorzylla.itch.io/

Please email me gorzylla@gmail.com if you’d like to discuss working together! 

Hi there, your game sounds so fun to play!. I’ve a hobbyist interest in Heraldry and RPGs and management games are something I enjoy playing, so your game idea caught my eye! I make games too in my free time and can work in a variety of art styles. I’m sure we can create something exciting for use in your game together. https://gorzylla.itch.io/

Please email me gorzylla@gmail.com if you’d like to discuss working together! 

I’m glad you enjoyed the game,  and that the video helped ;) Thank you again for your support and for playing!

Hi there! If I am understanding correctly the level you're talking about, you're right about solving the puzzle - it's picking the 2 symbols that make the centre one! :)

 Since I've no way to verify if that's what you're asking, I made a Youtube walkthrough of the Playtiles version. Hope you get to see what you need to finish the game!  Thank you so much for playing and for your support!

Hi there! I'm so sorry for taking so long to reply this - i haven't been on Itch in a while! I've made a gameplay walkthough, perhaps this will help you out! Thank you again for playing :) 

Its out now! If you do in the end make a purchase, you can support me if you'd like by using my affiliate code. More info here - . https://gorzylla.itch.io/mission-earth Thank you so much!!

Sorry for the late reply! Don’t mind you asking at all - I was working on new content for the Playtiles Exclusive for my other game Mission: Earth! :)

Hey there! Omg, thank you so much for your detailed feedback, I really appreciate you breaking down the game and analysing what you liked and didn't like, and what could be improved on! I definitely want to get back into finishing up this game in the future, but have currently a project on hand that has priority! Thank you again for your support.

Hey there! Thank so much for video-ing the game play and giving your feedback! So sorry for taking a while to reply you on this! But still appreciate the support!

Hello! Thank you so much for checking out my game and sharing the gameplay, sorry about it being so buggy! But I've fixed it now with updated artwork too! I'll also will be working on completing the game in the future! Hope you will check it out next time:)

This is so cute. I like that the mechanics are very simple to pick up and try, and I really liked the art work and music too! I thought it was also pretty cool that you took the "upliftment" part of the theme, quite literally haha.

I think that the general idea of this game is great! I really liked the artwork for the cards and also the writing for the friends and on the cards itself.

Hello! Thank you so much for checking out my game. I will do better prompts in my next update so that players know where to go and what to do next. It's a pity I didn't get to test run it before submission! If not you'd have gotten to the Crossroads with even more characters showing up :D

Thanks for reporting the bug to me so that I can fix it! I'm already working on an updated build with more art within (as I had originally intended but lack of time). Hope you'll check it out when its done :)

Again, thank you for playing

I think overall this was a cool idea with a wonderful premise. The idea of using music as cues for movement is a great idea! It's the gameplay that needed some polish as there were collision issues with the vines so I couldn't walk past certain paths and the star didn't seem to be able to follow too well as it got stuck behind some vines too.  I think the background music helped to create the correct mood, but if only the star emitted more soothing tones with the same kind of vibe instead of this synth would make it more cohesive. I think with more time you could really turn this into a very comforting and soothing game :)

The graphics and music was so cute. Love the cats,  birds monsters and even their ghosts when they die! The fact that you had cards to add companions to the fight after earning enough gold was a cool touch. It fit with the Halloween theme well too. Only wish the initial fight was a little faster so that I can kill and earn gold faster and get to the upgrades/meat of the game. I think if you had more time to polish the game play, it'd be a real treat to play it again and see what other cool stuff I can buy in game :)

I think the physics of the game was pretty fun, including how responsive moving and shooting felt. The music also had a nice beat to keep the "fight" going. I couldn't really figure out what to do at first until I realized you could use the keyboard to use abilities. Nice effort! :D

I love this game! So innovative that you mixed a typing-spelling challenge game with the "What's the Time, Mr. Wolf?" game that we used to play as kids! The halloween twist was pretty clever too with the wolf trying to teach his kid how to do scares. Super cute! Can't wait for you to develop this fully :D 

P.S. I don't get how Gary really works. He's suppose to scare the little wolf - so, does he get closer with time, or does he get closer with wrong words?

This is so cute :) I enjoyed taking photos with my camera, I just couldn't do the first person for too long (but that's a me problem, not so much the game). I think the animals are super cute and enjoyed the music. Like the chill vibe overall.

thanks for checking it out! You can find the wand outside. I should make a prompt for that in the future. :)

I really liked the pixel art style for this - the design of the characters and creatures was something that stood out for me! The gameplay was simple enough to understand so I could jump right into the action. A particular kudos I must give is when certain sound effects (like something being pushed) are used as audio cues for where a creature might be, that was fantastic. It made me go - what's that sound?  It really lent to that horror story vibe. I think the sound effects and music with the heartbeat and clock ticking helped to build the tension too. 

But I do wish the action ramped up a little bit faster though or perhaps the map was too big for me to explore, so I didn't actually feel scared.. Maybe by darkening the surrounding background and only letting the player really rely on the lamp would make the game even more scary. But of course, you only had so little time to work on this - so for only spending 28 hours on this, It's a good game!

Haha! This is such a cute game! I love the pixel graphics, the sound effects and the unhappy grunt that the monsters make when I give them something wrong! I did find the gameplay challenging though, I couldn't read the guide and understand each item fast enough before a monster stormed away. I couldn't memorize what exactly they liked either well enough haha

Also, while I did say I love the pixel graphics, I think some items could be made more apparent, for example - like the cookies, I didn't know those were the cookies and I could click on them.  All in all, it was a fun little experience and I really enjoyed it.

Oh! That IS strange indeed. Thank you for reporting that :D

I really like that your entry stands out as a novel game. I enjoyed the writing and also the illustrations of the different characters you made to go along with the text. The music also fit with the mood and vibe. I think with more time, there could be even more deeper immersion with the story - I'm so curious about this world, the lore of this universe, the background of my companions - who are they? Why are we here together ( I assume we stole something) ? And who exactly IS the visitor? Good job!

I really like this entry where we become the uninvited guest - that's really smart! I love the design of the wolf, and also the little powers like "disguise" and "hiding in the shadows" those are all so very cool! The game was easy to learn and pick up. The music was good as it helped with building the atmosphere and chomping down on the sheep had a nice tactile feeling when the sound effects is combined with a minor jolt.

I think if you had more time, you'd make it even more slick, with a tutorial maybe inbuild into the gameplay rather than just typing it out in giant fonts, which took up alot of visual room and make the tutorial pasture feel cluttered and aesthetically unpleasing. 

Anyway, over all it was very good!

For a simple shooter game, this hits the nail on the head! LOL. After repairing so many windows and shooting zombies - I haven't got a chance to get a drink yet! And I need one!

I think it's a really fun, short game with a super simple concept that captures the gameplay and the theme well (with a tad of humour too!) The mechanics are easy to learn and the controls are intuitive. I wished there was more to do within the game (if it was expanded in the future), but in it's current state, I think it works really work for what it is!

Hey there! Yes, the music on the loop didn't work well and it probably destroyed some of the tension I was trying to build in the game! I will rework that after the jam. Thank you for checking out my game and for your feedback

Hey there! Appreciate your feedback and you taking the time to play the game! So glad you managed to reach one of the endings, I'm thinking most of the people made it the one with the "intruder" but there is also another ending for the demo after you go out there and explore :P So weird that pressing A or Z didn't work at the end, coz it worked for me, but I will check that out after the jam ends!

Hey thank you so, so, so much! Your big reaction brings a smile to me and am so appreciative of it! Thank you again and I will try my best to finish the game!

Thank you so much for your comment! It's very heartening to read and it gives me encouragement to continue!

Hey there! Thank you so much for your kind words :)

Hey! Thank you so much for playing the game and I like that you enjoyed how story heavy the game is compared to a game with lots of action. (Which I may have trouble figuring out how to code given the short jam timeframe haha) And thanks so much for pointing out the flaws - I will check the dialogue, I think there were some text loops that are wonky and also didn't get fixed. And yea, I'll definitely rework the music! 

Thank you, thank you! I will continue to work on this game to give it a conclusion between work and my free time - I already had the story all mapped out but I spent way too much time drawing and trying to figure out how some of the coding works, and hence ran out of time! Unfortunately GB studio doesn't allow for mouse input as it's mainly for the gameboy. But I can definitely change the keyboard bindings to E (which makes sense, most PC games E is for interaction as you rightly pointed out). Thank you again for your lovely feedback and for playing

Yes, you pointed out something about the game having a slow start that I need to change. There was suppose to be a few more markers of what the player is suppose to do, and also a few smaller mini games so that when the game really gets off ground, you'd know what to do - but I ran out of time to fully test and implement those features.  The Thing was definitely an inspiration for this! Thank you for checking out my game

Thank you so much for your kind words!! I really appreciate it

Thank you so much for your lovely and breakdown in your feedback! Those are points where I can definitely continue to work on and improve. I'm so glad you enjoy the story and seemed really invested in it. Thank you again!

Thank you so much, yes I do plan to continue! It's a much bigger scope then when I first start out, so it'll take a while.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the visuals, I spent way to much time on one thing and ran short of time for the jam :D

Yes! I will include the .gbc file when I next update the game :) I just ran out of time to compile the ROM. Thank you so much for playing

This is such a cute game! I really enjoyed the visuals - as simple as they are they were charming. I particularly like the cat trick or treater design., so cute! The music was also well done, it was on a loop but totally fit the theme and it didn't feel repetitive in an annoying way - it was catchy and cute! I like how simple the gameplay was, without having to figure out overcomplicated mechanics (I can see why since you submitted for another jam too)
I really like the opening to, it had such a fun humour. If you do expand this game into a larger universe, you have a great start! Perhaps at the party, you have obnoxious guests that make a mess you'd have to clean up too. So different levels of cleaning up lol.
