Holy smokes, this is an incredible first jam game. Everything from the music, to the levels, to the gameplay, to the visuals was a joy to play through. I really hope this wins!

The person that periodically appears is absolutely bone-chilling, great game! I like that the vibe is spooky but not scary (so glad there weren't any jumpscares), cool art style too!

This game was very cool! I enjoyed the way you switched up the gameplay for every shard by just swapping the colours around, it genuinely makes you look at the level through a whole new perspective each time. Sadly though, I got stuck before reaching the third shard (the climber grabbed a red wall with their right hand and just wouldn't let go) so I wasn't able to finish it, but I really liked liked it otherwise!

This game is awesome! I love the art and music so much and I liked fighting all the new enemies for each of the chores. Much like Kob I also encountered (probably) the same bug on the last level where the player just vanished, but I still really enjoyed playing this!

Thank you!!

Wow, well done on balancing both colours, that seems tricky (especially with the tile constrictions)! I like the contrast between both halves a lot and the feather feels very retro, good job!

Thanks, thinking of alternative uses for the tiles was probably my favourite part about this jam! I used the goblin ears tile so much in this piece lol

Thank you! I'm happy you liked it :D

Aw, thanks! I really wanted the piece to feel alive so I'm glad I could achieve that.

This is a very sweet piece! I love the little sprites for the characters, I think they're very cute c:

What is the thing on the left supposed to be by the way? I have a hard time seeing it as anything other than a silly face, but I'm curious to know what it really is

I'm very glad you liked it, thank you!

This looks awesome! Great narrative usage of perspective, too, it fits the story for the knight to be looking down at us and the criminals since they're searching for them, love it!

This looks beyond incredible. I hope you can get it under the tile limit in time because it would be tragic if such an amazing piece didn't make it to the ROM. Great work!

This looks stunning! I hadn't even realised that it was one big cosmic yin and yang until now, stellar job!

You either pick being a magical girl or having a healthy sleep schedule but you can't have both! Very funny concept and so cute :D

Very clean design! The laurel (?) leaves on the corners are a nice touch as well

Oh wow, took me a second to see but that is lovely! Drawing white on black is really hard to do as well, so great job!

tysm!!

I love the ink painting vibe that this has along with the manga aesthetic, great work!

I'm glad Hana has made a reappearance for the spooky season! Excited to see the vid when it releases, you're a huge inspiration :D

I am gobsmacked that this is only 44 tiles, that is some incredible optimization. The most amazing thing is that I wouldn't have even realized unless you had pointed it out.

Speaking of which, I've only just now noticed that the hair tiles are used for the greenery at the top, that is awesome!!!

Great dragons, they look so mischievous!

Wow, this looks sick!! I really love the texture you achieved on the robes and on the  trees, well done!

Oh you know I'm gonna be that guy who only has one kind of Fidgey plate on his board. Why win when you can have six different MP3 Fidgeys all playing tinny, bit-crushed audio?

Very fun game mock-up, I really like it!

Awww, the little button eye is such a cute detail, I love this so much!

Now all that's missing is a big yeti chasing them! (Whoops, I'm thinking of SkiFree, nevermind). I like the rough texture on the snow near the board, it feels real and lumpy

The absolute pinnacle of structural engineering! so many memories of floppy bridges...

I like the composition a lot, it feels like the box art for a retro game! I tried out the demo and it looks promising, much luck to you and the team

This looks fantastic! I'm impressed with the amount of detail and texture you were able to get on those buildings, it feels dense like in a real city, great work!

Thank you!

Great design, you really nailed the face!

You really captured the boss fight aesthetic, I can easily see Anubis floating around and trying to slam you with his other hand while the scales tilt around. Great job!

Very sombre piece, but appropriate for its subject matter. The loss of biological diversity due to human exploitation is always tragic, but you have memorialized the carrier pigeon well

Wowww, that looks amazing!! Very clean pixel art and lovely design!

That news reporter seems almost too happy... perhaps he is behind the big lizard attack? Really cool piece and congrats on your first jam!

Great concept and execution (no pun intended, RIP bulldog)

That's such a clever concept! Love the Greek aesthetic

This is cute, I like it!

Very cool design!
