I agree I wish I had some more time to fine tune! But thanks for checking is out.

Thank you!

Thanks so much for playing (and finding more bugs to fix 🐛.) I'll be sure to update the game page to at least show off all the species to mitigate future employees concerns about not being able to see our clientele 😉. Thanks again for giving it a shot and the great feedback

This might be the best game of all time! Make this into something bigger I beg.

Also love how you got the title screen to seamlessly integrate into your pages background. It looks awesome! AND love the UI flourishes everything just feels so playful I was smiling the whole time.

I can tell by the cover art I'm already going to enjoy yours lol. Please check ours out too if you have the time! https://rikugamez.itch.io/strangecation

Took me a few runs to find my groove but I think the fact that I kept trying is a testament to how fun it is . 2 bugs I noticed is that the player loses all forward momentum when jumping and kind of just keeps you in place. And after a while I was no longer able to interact with anything so I was just run and gunning until my health hunger and thirst ran out. Fun times though all things considered!

Gotcha I'll look into it and see if I can fix it before the bug fix window is closed! If you try on another browser I hope you can get to play it properly!

Thanks so much for playing!

Oh no I'm sorry to hear that 😔. What browser were you on? Maybe it's something I can troubleshoot

Yours was fun!

The damage sound effect actually scared me so bad with my headphones in lmaoo. With  just the use of the primitive shapes you made some really excellent and frankly creepy monster designs! Had a lot of fun! Congrats on doing your first Jam!

Check out our game Strangecation!  We're always looking for new employees to provide excellent service to our alien clientele. 

And was a blast to play! Very unexpected tone shift hahaha

Super surreal and creepy! When I left the initial area I was like ...... uuuh. For only a week to work on this I feel like its extraordinarily well done!

Wow I can't believe it's your first jam! My first projects were abyssal and have been hidden on itch out of embarrassment lol!  Though punishing I had fun, I hope you enjoyed our game too!

The presentation of this project is super good! I think the combat could be a bit more fair as it is very easy to get overwhelmed by the demons without having a great way to beat them back since it take 3 hits or so to beat them. I think if you tweak the damage numbers though this would be excellent!

Just checked it out and rated, good job! I hope you enjoy our game as well

Very novel to have both a 2d ad 3d platformer in the same go. Despite the fixed camera angle in the 3d sections I enjoyed my time with it. Good work on this :) 

Ps - Audio would go a long way! 

Thanks so much for playing and glad you had a good time!

What a fun puzzle game and novel take on the Jam theme! I had a lot of fun trying to ascertain each of the assets and ended up getting 7/10 correct so good enough to get a full time position..hopefully! I wish there was a bit more agency in making decisions that weren't directly linked to the computer since once you get low it just becomes a 50/50 guess but otherwise I see the vision. You've got great writing skills which got me to chuckle and added to the overall charm of the game in combination with the art style. Really good work here.

Thanks so much for playing! There is definitely a lot of room for improvement to make telegraphing wants a bit more intuitive but I'm glad you had fun regardless! Congrats on making it (nearly) a week

The concept here is really cool but I think the "difficulty" scaling could be improved a bit since the early game is so slow. But I can't lie watching number go up is very fun so I grinded out a bunch of it while doing other things. With the planned updates that you have I feel like this could go really crazy! Good Work!

Would love for people to check out my teams game and I'm also looking for some bangers to play! Drop a link to yours and I'll give it a whirl!

This scratched such a nice itch in my brain despite being so simple! Every time I messed up I immediately wanted to try again and the boogie was a life saver! Made it to 3:15 on my last try but the games so approachable I'll probably be back to get a new high score!

Great Work!

HR has heard your complaints and has worked tirelessly to rectify these bugs in the system. 

Seriously though thanks for playing and helping us iron out the wrinkles!

It says you can make changes for bug fixes only for the first 48 hours!

Game files are not locked for the first 48 hours of the rating period. This is for fixing bugs and adding alternative platform support. Don't use this feature to otherwise update your game. After the rating period is over, if you wish to continue working on your game, please keep the original jam version as an alternative download.

Thanks for checking us out! The balance not updating is a bug that has been fixed if you'd like to try again. The fees and perks are helpful for later in the game as they boost money but effect the customers rating of you. Sorry that should be more clear!

Thank you so much for playing! HR has heard peoples complaints and have fixed payroll 😉. You are right though balancing all the factors is kind of a nightmare. Hope we can tighten it up after submission period is over! Also the Quota for day 2 was input wrong so maybe give it another go! Thanks again!

Thanks so much for playing!

What a great twist on the suika formula I had a lot of fun working through all the phases and getting mesmerized by the art and music. 

Unfortunately I could not play 10,000 X 10,000 chess lol. My browser simply wasn't strong enough to contain such power! Fun Idea!

I really love the look of this! It's super cute and the use of color is great! Not to mention it's really fun to play :))

This is some really good puzzle platforming! I also love how witty it was! Short and sweet but had a great time :))

Oh yeah, the music choice was very good.

It's incredible how addicting this is is to play! The music is such a vibe it almost made forget how frustrated I was getting at myself for making silly placements haha. Really great work!

Great music and fun movement and level obstacles! I think the experience could have been enhanced with some can sound effects but that's the only nitpick I have. Great work team :))

Thanks for the feedback and praise I really appreciate it! You've got some good ideas I'll have to implement after the jam :)

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

You're video is super insightful, thanks so much for playing! I'll be sure to play yours as well. :)

Some of our beloved customers can be a bit confused at times. Unfortunately the customer is always right ;) Thanks for playing!
