Ultimate taskforceThis game is so creative and hilarious! More than that, it is also very visually polished and even the credits are made with care. Great job!

Over-powered sword timesLove the idea! The color palette reminded me of the Pico-8 style. The UI is smooth and clean—great work!

OverPoweredHaha I know why the color palette reminded you of the PICO-8 style - it is the pico-8 style! @Code_Forge made the art in PICO-8, since that’s what he’s used to using. It turned out great in the end - thanks for the feedback!
By an absolute landslide the best one in the jam!
The tiny details add so much, the art and music go so hard, the writing is hilarious and the game is just so damn engaging; couldn't pull myself away from it!
Thank you for making such an amazing game!!

RelinquishFun concept, interesting to see the changes happening to the town as you make decisions.

Upheaval_ProtoReally nice minimalistic pixel art style! The color palette is really nicely picked. There were some requests that I wish I could accept in real life; It reminds me of 'Papers, Please,' but with cheerful vibes :D. The music and SFX fit really well with the game. Awesome job! Keep up the good work

Iron WillThanks! Yes, @Code_Forge did an amazing job on the artwork.
Unfortunately we cannot take all the credit for the color palette as he did use PICO-8 for most of the artwork, which has a set palette. However, it was @Code_Forge’s idea to use PICO-8 as he was already used to the system, so he can receive credit for the choice of tools and resulting main colors of the game.
Haha yeah I see what you mean about it reminding you of “Papers Please.” Most games I create have a cheerful vibe to them, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
What surprised me most was that we were able to whip out such a masterpiece (At least in my eyes!) in such a short amount of time! 9 days is not a lot to work with - and partnered with this being our first game jam, as well as first finished game on Itch or GDevelop, it turned out suprisingly well.
Ah, thank you! My wife used Photoshop for the creation of art and frame-by-frame animations; she's most familiar with it because of her graphic design background (I am so glad that she transitioned to game artist! :D). You may try using LibreSprite for pixel art – it's a free fork of Aseprite and it works pretty well. (A pixel art enthusiast here! :D )
Fun to see the town change with your choices. I ended up quitting job as it just kept going on and on lol
Nice game tho and nice art.

Satellite 12Yeah, I realized that a bit too late! Yesterday I was looking at it and some people were play-testing it, and they all thought the same thing.
But of course uploads are disabled during the voting section so I can’t upload a newer version which also contains a bug fix.
Thanks for the feedback though! And yeah, I agree that it’s really fun to play even after I created it.
I ended up blowing up the world, doh. A lot of dialogue must have taken ages good work.
