Heyy thx for the feedback! Yeah the "q" bug is just a shame and the worst is I already know why it's happening. I think I was able to fix it at some point but maybe I lost it to github or changed something that made it appear again  uhrrr.  (also someone just had the same bug IRL in front of me 😀)

But glad you liked it nontheless!

Rlly liked the gem arts!

Really inspired! Mabe it wass skill issue but I had some trouble getting the box unstuck from the walls!

Rated! Very creative

Here's my game -> https://faeorium.itch.io/nowhere-cuisine

Very well designed game you got here! My game is a cooking/exploring type of thing -> https://faeorium.itch.io/nowhere-cuisine

So many  good things to talk about. I specially apreciated the game design behind this project. Every mechanic feels intentional, has good feedback and is neither overwhelming nor boring during gameplay. 

Some feedback I think would really make this project shine would be to have a contruction of aesthetic and wordbuilding bleading into character design and obstacles. The art was very nice but also felt kinda of generic, specially with the main character. That's a big deal at least for me and kept me from taking a longer interest into the game, but then again this is mostly nitcpicking  and the project is just awesome overall.

Hey shure! I think it was:

1. Talk with mask guy
2. Kill minion on right
3. talk with mask guy
4. kill minion on left
5. talk with mask guy
6. kill minion on top
7. interact with door

So like maybe the door is programmed to open when you have killed all minions? So I interacted with the door wandering what it was even though I was planning to return to get the last dialogue 

Great humor!

 WOULD apreciate a way to quit, STRESS me out having to alt tab.

This has a lot of pottential. I'd like to see some more audio work on juicyness though. More feedback on hitting and casting spells as well as audio variations for kills and such would be a nice point of pogress!

Nah that b circe is going to get it! I'm getting the hell out of death's realm.

Jokes aside this was one of my favs. I'm a sucker for this type of narrative game and there was so much creativity here. My only problem with it was that at the part where you start to know about bella with the masks guy I was just able to pass to the next room without getting the last dialogue. Maybe it was allowed because I had just killed the third minion (wich for me was the top one), but it felt kinda weird since at the start of the game you need to press yes to almost every action even though they are required to progress. So I didn't quite expect to just be able to pass to the next scene, also made me wonder if the different finals thing had something to do with not killing the minions (though I now know it's only acepting or not death's dialogue)

This was so cool! I loved the second disk style, the color, effects and writting just really hit the spot for me. Though I like horror I tend to get scared quite easily while playing alone so at the jumpscare parts or the ending I just kept picturing you taking those photos in your house and it felt a little sillier (I really hope it was your house). Helped me quite a lot to go trough it hehe

Hey glad you liked it! About the "q" thing, would that be during the main house scene? If so I think I know what you talking about and I can't believe I didn't check it before sending the last build. I fixed it some builds ago but wouldn't be surprised if some of it is still there

Rlly glad you liked it!

This is a question I was having a lot myself haha. I was a little afraid of calling it a roguelite because I wouldn't say it has much replayability during the gathering stage, but I guess it checks out most of it's elements. I've just been calling it a cooking exploration game up untill now (this type of game also someties get passed to simulation so I'm just never shure).

 Also true about the colliders, it was our first time trying generative stuff on a top downish kinda view, so we were not so shure how to go about it!

Hey! Will play your game shortly! 

If interested in my game. It's a cooking/exploration type of thing-> https://faeorium.itch.io/nowhere-cuisine

This was a fun one! Not typically my type of game so I was a little surprised I played it as much as I did. Big props to making the game intuitive and easy to manuver. 

If i were to criticese something I would say that even though the art and aesthetics caught my attention I didn't find them as much as I wanted during the gameplay. I left the game still wanting to learn more about the world or see something else happening visually. But then again that's just the kinda of game that I specifically like, and also I didn't play untill the last level so maybe I missed something!

Nontheless you guys did a great job!

This was an interesting one! The thing I like the most was definetly the writting. Hearing about flatland having rules and trying to spot me in the maze was defintly weird and what made me keep on pushing trough the phases, it was just as nonsencial as a little poetic and I loved that.

I'm afraid I found some problems with the mechanics but since some comments seam to have already pointed it out I'll criticise another thing, visuals. The fact that this game was solo deved is amazing and for the ammount of content it has I can see why the visuals probably got put aside, but I belive that fighting for an aesthetic here could really up the experience. It doesn't have to be anything crazy, but if the visuals could also speak about the world they are on this would be peak! Is flatland a drawing? Or an abstract colorfull plane of existence?  Or maybe they could just use some effects to get the game more juicy without going for a specific theme

(Obs: If visuals are not your thing, or you can't seam to find time for them try finding a partner! It's definetly a challenge to work with other people but I'm shure it's a nice alternative)

Did I just kill all my emotions and was left only with anxiety?? 😃

Anyways I rlly loved the style. Absolutly in love with clay like games since I played hylics and this just hit the spot. Here are some stuff I wrote while playing if interested! 

1. Ui mega cool, maybe a bit to big during gameplay.
2. Didn't figure out the boss had a bigger arena (the black area) untill second time around (maybe was skill issue)
3. Missing some metroidvania design elements, but think you guys already noticed since you pointed it out to backtrack  on the game's page
4. There's a chance is a little bit more difficult to deal single target damage to smaller characters (such as the love fellow) once the attacks get bigger since they get more spread out in a line. 
5. Effects don't show that clearly where the damage is going to land. Maybe add some more visual and sound feedback, such as the love fellows making some noise before attacking.
6. Missed a secondary combat mechanic during the game. Such as a dash/projectile or a creative new equivalent.
7. Buttom to skip dialogue is the same as attack buttom (at least in pc) so first time around I skipped a bunch of dialogue either by mistake or because I was already surrounded by ennemys

Overall just really nice game, also try building for webGl is easir for peolpe to play and sometimes results in more peolpe playing!

The stuff animals were so stylized so cool! This was a great job, but I have some feedback for the mechanics implemented.

The ammount of ways you could interact with itens semmed a bit forced. Having them be able to combine, interact with the world, display info and change into other itens all at "random" (with no in game indication or clear designed feedback) was a bit weird. I would argue that having many functional mechanics like that is only necessary if they are going to be important in the gameplay, but functionaly they mostly just did the same thing.

 In their worst they are just kinda tricky and make it so that you need to explain how to use them (like the soda can) and at their best they are just kinda of obvious and take away from the puzzle aspect.

Heyy played your game! We got simillar stuff going on! https://faeorium.itch.io/nowhere-cuisine

Really interesting, the ambient was the winner for me here. It rlly looks like the game has pottential uppon adding some more mechanics around the gather stage!
My game is also this gather and craft for client style! Though we went for way different directions I find it nice to have found a a similar core loop

Saphira gang! 🙏

Heyy, thx for the feedback!!
Changing the gathering mini game depending on the scene or type of ingredient was one of our core mechanics that got scrapped to fit the time schedule. But I definetly see you, we had all types of ideas, having the bar spin around, going to different places on the screen, having to hit multiple spots (DBD style I guess) or just other mini games. Glad you enjoyed it nonetheless!

Hey MIN! Loved you guys game. Pretty shure one of your collegues played our game already! Still  if you haven't and want to try out here it is -> https://faeorium.itch.io/nowhere-cuisine

Loved Swine safari!! Here's my game -> https://faeorium.itch.io/nowhere-cuisine

Cool concept!!

Sapphira from nowhere cuisine says: " Okay so like I'm pretty shure I'm the best coconut seller of the universe!? wich like is kinda cool because my mom said I won't add up to much but like.. look at me now, I just did the emperor the biggest of favors and guess what? IT TASTES like coconut"

Reminded me of the silly scenarios I would "play" with my best friend when I was younger. Such a nice feeling

Interesting spin on the theme

Charque from the nowhre cuisine says: "Ooh man wish my pups could have a dream savior, naww their dream savior is me, I gotta deal with all'em nightmares"

Simm!! eu adoraria saber mais sobre os games de vcs, c tiverem afim de conversar mais manda um request no discord: impetus3587

Okay so apparently not satisfied with driving terribly in real life I also did horribly in your game! I swear I found it easier to drive under water or in space than those normal streats.

Bu hey great job! Good music, artistics and gameplay, also I just love the 👀

This was very nice! I was surprised my how much fun I had playing an already existing and very well defined type of game! The juicyness was definetly the winner here and I could say the same about Super Cute Slime Attack!

The leaderboard is also always a plus in game jams since it connects the community so well (Don't ask me about my score! I'm working on it) 

If I were to give and adivice though I would defintly recommend for you guys to look at some design and artistic fundamentals (and I'm not talking only about illustration). There's so much creativity and style here, taking some time to learn this kinda stuff can be a little difficult or boring but it would definetly up it all by a hundred! There's no problem going for some simple ui and that's also just kinda of recommended for a jam, but I missed stuff like just having some different in theme font for the entire project or a in game score with some better contrast with the background.

Ka & Mi from nowhere cuisine say: "The gnomes are so kwaii! It's a shame they keep on taking Ka & Mi sooks all the time. Ka & Mi will maybe play just a few more times before returning to saving the universe ~"

OWW this is so cute!! Loved the effects when killing multiple slimes

Heyy thanxx for the feedback! I'm taking a break but will make shure to check out you guy's game next, also made me curious about the magical girl one! Excited to see what they are about

The characters "fake dub" with the chess pieces was such a nice touch!! As a casual chess enjoyer this game was a 10/10, the only thing that anoyed me was that clicking 2 times on the dialogue skiped it instead of just completing the character's text.

If you guys are interested in another wacky characters game pls try our game Nowhere Cuisine!!

This is such a gem! Since people are already praising the game (and they're absolutely right) I'll be anoying and nitpick about the UI. 

Though it's one of the best I saw in the jam in clarity and it follows the game's aethetics I can't help but feel like it's out of place. Here's some feedback:

-Some texts doesn't seem to align
-Some windows are way bigger then they need to be and others are way smaller. Sizes are all over the place
- The continue buttom is getting off the screen 
-Audio bar thingie is really small. Should probably be bigger or passsed to pause menu
-Info box is really small, hard to read (the thingie that appears when you hover an upgrade)
-Filmrool snaps sprites seem to be flated out to fit in their box (most of their art also seems to have been made for a bigger display, so looks kinda pixelated)
-Ui doesn't seem to have designated places for information. I would argue that 'small" info such as Targets, shots and rounds could all be near eachoter

Ui's always a trouble at least for me, so despite my criticism seeing you guys making it work out is really nice!

Rlly liked this one! 

Lord Glorpion from nowhere cuisine says: "Djim Djim, Zorp porp glorp ban? " (He is wondering if the anomalies are taking applications ) 

The vc actually kinda creeped me out! Since your working on unity I would suggest learning how to export to a webGl build for your next jam! 

Mr Mouse from nowhere cuisine says: "I thought this would be a nigthmarish bum, but it reminded me of my childhood, let's just say my old guy can't keep me from sleeping no more"

Mr Mouse is a grumpy fellow, so we don't take responsibility for his comments!

Thxx for the support! Am I tripping or are you guys a brazilian studio!? Arrasaram mt!!

It definetly has a charm, kinda reminded me of milk outside a bag of milk.

Ka & Mi from Nowhere Cuisine say: "So many bright colors, Ka & Mi fought endless witches that could warp reality as such, that being said, Ka & Mi must return to their services now! ~"
