✔️ Lots of content here, that is overall, super well polished: mini games, battles, resource mechanics, this game has it all!

✔️ Super creative idea and well themed - I like how your house is even shaped like a pokeball, and when you are sent into battle its via beaming out!

➖ This game is tough as pokeballs - I kept dying after 1-2 battles :p.

⭐ Overall: great work!

✔️ This probably is the best use of the theme I've seen all jam! This really feels like a "roles reversed" game, taking mechanics that would normally be in a clicker game and flipping them on their head. The attention to detail with the clicker going over and actually selecting upgrades was a really nice touch!

✔️ Easy to learn + intuitive controls.

➖ While the floaty movement did make the gameplay more interesting, it may have been just a bit too floaty.

⭐ Overall: nice job!

PS: We would be very grateful if you could rate our game before the deadline 😵.

✔️ Absolutely love the music: super groovy and fun. Was very enjoyable moving the sushi to the beat.

✔️ Nice cute aesthetic overall.

➖ The gameplay felt a bit basic at times.

⭐ Overall: great work!

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!? I AM!

✔️ Nice art, animation + sound. Well polished.

✔️ Intuitive game play.

➖ Took me a while to figure out how to cast spells.

⭐ Overall: great work!

✔️ Creative idea - it was cool to use the points for upgrades as well!

✔️  Intuitive and easy to learn.

➖ Maybe prevent reducing monster odds to 0 - I found I could just do that and negate all attacks.

⭐ Overall: nice bite-sized game!

✔️ Nice bite sized puzzle game: intuitive and easy to learn.

✔️  Love the hand drawn aesthetic!

➖ The game just ended on a grey screen - I assumed this was the end?

⭐ Overall: nice job!

✔ I really liked the main mechanic! I could see this work really well if the player was a fire and the arrow was embers. 

✔ Easy to pick up.

X Maybe just a bit more content was needed.

✔ Create concept.

✔ Initially I was a bit confused with the text at the beginning, but the gameplay felt quite intuitive once I started playing

- I wish there was some way to tell what attack type of attack I was going to use next.

✔ Clean visuals, which don't distract from the gameplay.

X Sometimes the equations wouldn't register and clear a line.

➖ Maybe don't have the fast moving planets spawn on the outside.

➖ Maybe have the character closer to the top of the screen so that it is easier to see what is below you.

✔️ I really liked the movement mechanics in this one;  unique but very usable.

✔️ Intuitive.

➖ Maybe limit the fire rate on the engine, because by spamming the space bar you can travel in tight circles, which makes it much easier.

➖ Maybe add a bit more juice to the menu e.g. sound, hover effects etc.
