Great experience, very strong in it's conciseness.

Snowball RushThis is such a great game. Totally loved it. I want to play more of this. If you like, you can also play my game. Thank you.

SlimeBoundWhat could easily have been treated as a joke is instead presented with an air of emotion, existential dread, and self reflection.
Just like how the player character is turning into a fish, we too are changing and get to decide whether or not we want to pursue that direction or try pull back. Choosing to voice act this went a long way to selling the vibe, lines like the reaction of your daughter when you tell her you will stay as a fish definitely had more emotional weight, making this short experience an enjoyable one.
Great jam game!
Had me thinking about life and existence and stuff

The Scale of a LifeDeliciously weird ! It's rare to voice acting in the jam games, nice job on that ! The art and music are pretty great too

Wreck The Rocks!How did you made such good art! It was an amazing experience in only 3 minutes! It's also the first game I played in the jam that uses voices which add up to the immersion, hope to see you in GMTK 2025!

Slime survival roomOh, geez, this art and voice acting are just amazing! You guys (siblings) have to make a cartoon, really! That would be one of the CalArts nominee, I bet!
Being honest, I thought it was created by Frenches but based on the pronunciation - no way. x)) I did enjoyed this experience, thank you for that!

Whimsical CreatureReal Kfaka-esque, I loved it, but I think it just doesn't fit the theme very vell sadly. But still a grat work! (I you can find the time i would be happy if you took a look at my game and rated it)

Build to ScaleThe game is looking great, and I liked the weirdness. For me game felt too linier, the choses did not really matter, and it seem mostly to be there so the player had something to do. But overall an interesting little game/story.

Blow The BalloonSuch a wonderful, weird experience. So weird! I love that you were able to set a whole vibe in such a short time. The music and sounds are wonderful. The steps are so hollow and makes the whole thing feel really melancholy. The red shine from the sun is subtle and nice. The animations and art are fantastic. I love the movement. Good job!
Nice art nice dialogue, I like the story-telling in this game!

BUILT TO SCALE! GMTK2024Wow! Even even though the game is small, the mood is incredible, the art and animation are perfect, the dialog options are interesting, and the ending is framed in a super tasteful way.
The dialog audio could be a bit higher in the mix, it's hard to hear it under the music sometimes.
Other than that no notes, perfect little weird experience <3

Grow-BotA lot of game jam entries lose my interest after a few short minutes. This one only lasted a few short minutes, but I wish it went longer. Beautiful design work.
