This was fun, love speeding through the course and drifting around turns. 

Agreed with comments below, Ill especially second the desire for a map; not knowing what the course ahead is like makes it tough to commit to deep drifts or hitting the overdrive to much. And a dedicated handbrake might help with the controls a bit too, so normal brake can be a more controlled brake.

Overall solid base and I had a good time with it!

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! I agree, the last days seem to bring out the rushed balance; between the time, available cards/tastes, grading, etc. makes it tougher to do well on the back of the deck building (vs getting lucky).

Regardless, I appreciate that you and others enjoyed it enough to give it multiple goes! The feedback and ideas help a lot

Thanks for playing, definitely want to try and fill it out and clean it up a bit post jam! 

Ah the submission time is less scary than it looks haha, kept uploading new versions with more and more last minute fixes in that last hour

Cool take on the theme, it feels like a lot at first but quickly becomes manageable (but still tough). I do wish the camera was either zoomed out a bit or there was some top down view, I quickly found myself pretty much entirely shooting at off screen enemies. But that does lead into a cool zen state, focusing on dodging and slowly taking out the enemies. The music and sfx helps a lot in making that fun

Slick shooting gameplay, good sense of the feel and feedback that makes the shooting work. I quickly found myself rolling and reloading way more than was necessary just cause it was fun to do. 

Simple but satisfying take. After a certain point I feel like I stopped having a strategy and just killed the weakest numbers until big booms happened. The big booms are very fun though so I'm here for it. Good work!

This is a ton of fun; cool puzzles, great writing, so much exciting juice. The targeting is so satisfying, I could play a dozen more levels on that alone. My favorite levels were definitely ones where mint had plenty of moves and doki is putting together a clear plan, vs mint having to make her 1 move then trying to get doki to pixel perfectly aim.
only bug (edit: wasn't a bug for the game my b)

Playing this is already quite satisfying, I can feel it scratching a fun domino itch of mine. Its refreshing to be encouraged to use everything also, instead of "use as little as possible" like many resource games. 

Biggest feedback gameplay wise is tearing up a large chunk of your dominos to rearrange stuff is a tad clunky, but I imagine that would be mostly smoothed over by being able to click and drag while placing / removing, or rotating tools in place. 

Good stuff, good job!

This is a ton of fun: cool concept and execution. There's a lot of good here already and plenty of ways to further expand later if you like.
A couple really small, basic tutorial levels would go a long way in teaching how the various blocks interact, learning it on the fly after going through a couple steps of the level first is tough.
Only real bug I bumped into was getting stuck in the ghost/crow blocks. And one UI idea would be make the mint hand a point (not dropper) when on clickable region. That's pretty much it, really great work

Cool little point and click, the dialog between Biboo and Kaela is definitely the highlight to me.
Definitely had to reference Jankens stream for a couple things, especially the neutral ending. I think the name/sound puzzle is the toughest, that layout looks like a combination lock but isn't.
One other quick note, the auto pathing breaks in a couple (minor) instances. Doesn't path around some walls, and sometimes makes you walk back into the room you came from if the doorway is two blocks high
Other than that I had a good time, got all the endings!

Love seeing an actual game made out of this, the style and visuals are great to see
There's not a lot of feedback, or information at all, for people unfamiliar with how the game works. The roll tables and the health counters are *tiny* during combat, relying too much on small red font to relay whats going on.
I also only ever got fights, despite landing on other squares, I think

Woo this is already so fun; I beat it with both characters but didn't get into the nitty gritty with score yet. I like the different personalities to the two ships of course, and the enemies and boss already feel varied enough for a full stage.
The art and sfx are simple, but I think its clear how much positive impact they have on a two week jam project.
I like the corrupted effects, I'm curious if they're textures or just random pixels or what. That said, the entire boss fight being corrupted makes sense narratively, but isn't easy on the eyes and its not hard for bullets to get lost in the chaos. In fact, readability throughout could be a taaad better, maybe simply desaturating the bg or something to help make the bg and foreground elements a bit more distinct.
The hidden smols are fun, didn't find any naturally but got a couple after reading the manual, can easily picture myself hunting for these in a full version of this.

I think I got lucky, except for spamming sleep when needed I could kind of do whatever and coasted through. Love the concept and mini games, counting sheep and clicking the superchats were my favorite two. The clicking one aside, the others had some fun variety and good streaming themes, would love to see the rest you guys had planned.

This was a ton of fun, the deceptively simple concept kept me engaged and I love the sound and art throughout
Even in the last few levels I felt able to brute force things a bit, though I suppose that was after a bit of deducing anyway. (And thats definitely preferable to everything being gacha).
Really well done, would definitely play more levels in the future

Love the turn in ocean 4, well done

Zooming around and cleaning up the water is real fun, the sprites and music are good as well. The minimap and bars in the UI are also very satisfying. Getting speed and doing a jump out of the water is the best
Getting a long trail of slime behind you is almost as fun as getting a single huge ball of slime
I think I beat all the enemy fish by just holding D and they all died offscreen, a little bit of a chase or effort there would feel better
Make sure that % remaining doesn't round down to 0 when there's still stuff left

An unfortunate byproduct of how the game works is that its most fun right at the start: you go as fast as possible and get a huge thing of slime without really trying. Near the end you're going slow and double checking everything for the last stray bits of slime.
Spitballing ways to help this, pulling back the camera when you go fast could help you see slimes easier, making the slime pickup hitbox larger at speed could make it easier to grab stray single slimes, the water clearing up as the slimes are taken away could help indicate where the last ones are (and is also satisfying like powerwash)

Good work overall!

This really really captured the feeling of the old Slender game, the flashlight, the music, frantically checking behind you. Seeing wide Fauna made me jump more than I'd like to admit (and more often). Not a super ton new here but there's a lot to learn from understanding and recreating a style regardless. Also, the music is Let Me Stay Here?? That rules.
I think replacing the pages with items to use adds a lot of complexity and back and forth that maybe makes it tougher than the og, though her getting stuck is new and funny also

Once I wrapped my head around things this was a good time! I really like bouncing between the different paths to either add more summons or help fight myself.
One UX thing I thought of is holding space and then unsummoning whoever the mouse hovers over would be nice, def not necessary though. Also maybe some portals close sooner than others, so you can have a bit more reason to reallocate summons
Good stuff, grats

This is a ton of fun, I love how all the different elements work together and balance each other out, tons of great risk/reward mechanisms. Great take on the theme, the UI throughout sells the experience very well. The game went a step above once I had to start dragging stuff around; the icons to avoid krotana or moving/resizing nerfshark was a really great dimension to add to the game. (Nerfshark speeding them up if you make it too large is *very* funny)

A few UI things should maybe be a tad easier to handle, I think a box that better shows the bounds of the X button and a bit more leeway in resizing nerfshark would feel a lot better to the player without sacrificing much real difficulty.

Obviously would love to see more apps (and toolbars!) in the future if possible, great work

Presentation is really engaging, big ups for the ost and art
Getting a crit during the fight section is very fun
The movement during the dodge section is pretty sluggish, and some hits feel unavoidable. Also feels bad when the extra turn pickup is never close enough to grab
Really great demo, this could definitely expand out to something awesome

Cool take on the theme, the clones turning really keeps you on your toes
Jumping is pretty solid, though I really had to make sure I was falling straight down before using a right click or I'd never make it. Also a thick shadow directly under the player helps a lot with a sense of position in platformers like this, especially on the levels where the background makes it hard to judge scale
Good job!

Good work for first jam game
I played the new patch so had no trouble getting around, could focus on shooting and surviving
One thing to note, seems like its possible for the otomos to get closer to you than you can shoot, which is basically game over

I have nothing to add that hasn't already been said, but I have to reiterate that the sprite work is really great
Taking hits breaking points of the trident was very cool as well

This game is a huge vibe, I really liked this
There's probably a few ways to make the movement more satisfying, I think pulling the camera back a bit and maybe being a bit more generous with the hitboxes would go a long way also

This is so cool; a little memory, a little box pushing, and some great level design. The switching is so slick gameplay and UI wise, and I like how you combine these simple ideas into these engaging levels. This is already so solid, I think this can go pretty far with a little smoother ux and a lot more puzzles

I didn't get the token bit right away, but once I got rolling this was a lot of fun
If this were to be fleshed out, I think a further camera would help (to see the fans and the attendees more) and maybe different controls for the throwing, the scrolling always felt awkward to me. But I like the little machine you make, especially once you have a ton of fans at your disposal.
Also, tall order I know, but more movement from the fans during the conversion and after would be awesome, them all sitting there (on top of each other usually) is less fun than seeing a whole swarm following you
Lotta potential here, I like it

Had a good time with this, special shout out to the art and music, it's all very engaging (I especially really like the parallax background).

Agreed with some of the comments below, just want to add a couple small things. The movement is a bit slippery, so when trying to hurry and squeeze in a small gap it's likely to overshoot by sliding past it. Hold to shoot is a good accessibility consideration. And I think a moment to pick up the health before the screen moves you to the next fight would be helpful (though its nice the boss fight starts you at full regardless).

This was very cute and fun! The idle walking around and following is impressive, leading the suspects near the items or food to see their reactions is a great mechanic. I definitely don't know all the trivia, but I knew enough to sus out a couple suspects correctly.
The animations are cute, especially kronii at the mirror and Ina on the floor
Also very much appreciate the little UI touches like the click to confirm restart / exit

Ohhh I know what this is, the physics box is still a square from the placeholder square lol, never noticed
Good catch, appreciate it and the other feedback

Thanks for the feedback on the tuning, still a lot to learn there for sure
Reset not fixing it is very interesting, will be curious to try and track that one down

shoot you're totally right, there's no reason not to have had keyboard maps as well. Only just saw this too, will be the first update after judging period  o7

Had a good time with this! The gameplay is a little spammy (I think that would theoretically go away with more fleshed out enemies) but the core is solid. I loove the pixel art, the art and animations come across well

Visuals and music go a long way in setting the tone, big ups
I wonder how many anomalies there are, I played through twice and wouldn't be surprised if there were some I hadn't seen
I think anomalies nearby the left staircase are perhaps too easy to spot when going upstairs
Love uncommon aspect ratios

Love this, the art and sound are all so cute and all the little UI touches make searching for the items and delivering them enjoyable. The sheer number of items is impressive and the experience was very smooth and bug free.

Only medium feedback is eventually adding variety to the 'guest orders thing' loop. Maybe theres two guests, maybe you need to find two or three things, maybe they ask for a category like drink or weapon idk.
Other than that it's just tiny nitpicks. Once and item got stuck on the 'drop here' box, the newspaper music is very loud, the 'drop here' text could have a shape and look a tad bigger.

Great entry, everyone did an awesome job

From sounds and graphics to dialog and gameplay it's a great all around package.
Once the sprint got stuck on but no complaints from me about it

Really solid mechanics and aesthetic for the timeframe. The running and jumping feel pretty good, main points of improvement come in time saving and such. A larger hitbox on the keys would make them easier to pick up (especially the one or two you have to really jump for), a sound when a key appears so you don't miss it in the debris, and maybe just a little bit of an indicator of where to look (or not look).
Small animation thing for the running, if the arms lead the legs by a bit it'll look more convincing
Big points for the main menu leading right into the game, that's always so fun
Also being able to immediately adjust the volume is very welcome

Already addicting, the sound effects, snappy UI, and general flair make this an enjoyable game. Love the progress bar going off screen haha

Incomplete sure but it's built on what looks like a really solid foundation with clear paths to update which can't be underestimated. Nailed the Shiori dialog, could so clearly hear her voice in my head

A lot of fun, the jumping and slowdown feels nice and you already combine the various hazards and stuff into fun and interesting screens. I think locking the mouse to the game would be a good qol (or maybe I just drag way too much), and some coyote time when sliding off the ice would be nice too. I could go either way on power / angle ui also, definitely good arguments for either including or not. Very good time already

This is so fun, I'd love to play more of this. Cute art, good usage of sound and music, pretty sensible UI so far. And this system of stacking buffs and statuses over time can't be easy. WIP stuff aside, I think the combat has a lot of room to speed up, even without a skip button. Clicking ability could spin right  away, player and enemy can spin at the same time, idk, but a couple little things like that would add up. Great job
