Got stuck when a strawberry wouldn't let me roll it after it had spawned in as a cube, but otherwise I loved the art. The cube-versions of all the foods were adorable.
This is my favorite so far! The music is great, and I love all the little character stories. I feel like the tower can be used as a metaphor for so many different aspects of our lives. The woman staying behind to care for the cactus instead of forging ahead to see what's next, and the person who stayed--satisfied with the tiny book case--only to miss a grand library only a few floors ahead.
Honestly, this a better narrative game than something like Dear Esther. The dice rolls really made it feel like you needed persistence to get to the end, but players will get worn down by their lower and lower changes of progression. It's brilliant, this is a true work of art.
The graphics are adorable, I really love how the dice really couldn't have been any smaller and still have been legible given pico-8's resolution. Great puzzles, and the step counter is a great innovation that sets your game apart from the few dozen other roll the dice around type puzzle games this year.
This is the most challenging puzzle game I've found in this jam yet. I like how pretty quickly some fun behaviors become apparent, like getting stuck on '4'.
Actually good. The attention to detail is incredible for a game-jam entry. I adored the expression on the fur-ball enemies when they slipped on the sashimi.
I stuck around until level 3, this is pretty fun. It would have a lot of sticking power if the clicking and dragging was made super fluid. I'd also be cool for the actions to have key-bindings, like 1/2/3 to select the die, and w/a/s/d to select the direction.
This is the best I've played in the jam so far, nicely done.
I really appreciated the time taken to ensure the game starts off slowly to communicate the main mechanic before the evil eyes are introduced. The frames are visually striking, as well.
At first I was only going to stay a while, but I ended up scaling my dice farm for longer than I initially expected. You've got a good gameplay loop established here, and its a fun variation on the idle-game format. Nicely done!
One of the best puzzle games I've played from this jam. You're pretty down on it in the description, but I think this turned out really well, its a cool mechanic, and satisfying to play.
The art is excellent, its like something you'd see at a G Jones show.
The difficulty spike on level 4 was pretty severe. Of course, not being able to touch the cursor is a core mechanic, but it might benefit from some tuning on the rate at which you're reeled in as a function of distance.
I enjoyed playing this game, thanks for submitting it. I really think it started to hit its stride when you had to merge the goos in separate locations to open doors. Of course level design is challenging in such a short timeframe, but it would have been cool to see those mechanics play out in even more complex ways. TL;DR it was good, and I would have played more levels if you had them!
