Nope - I've completed at least one game jam before.

How does your game fit the theme?
My game takes the theme in a literal sense. The main goal is to start the game, but the player keeps being interrupted.

Lovely humor in the game and I loved the pixel art and music too, Fun experience and I can see its made with love and passion , it has gone unnoticed in the jam due to lack of web version so make sure to include one in next jams

Best of luck for upcoming games and game jams :D

Developer

I do regret not making a web build but I'm still pretty satisfied with the ratings. I'll definitely aim to have one in future jams. Thank you for the kind words and best of luck to you too! :3

I absolutely loved the humor in this game! The pixel art is adorable, the sound effects are great, and the bomb minigame was fun. The dialogue with Mike was phenomenal, and the ending had me laughing, absolutely hilarious. Honestly, I have no complaints. Just a damn good experience. Great work!

Developer

Aaaaaa thank you so much! I really wasn't sure how the humor's gonna land, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I couldn't get past the 3rd captcha, but the game is outstanding! The ui, the art, the music, everything is outstanding!

Developer

The third captcha is "YouCanQuitBTW", with that capitalization. Thank you for playing! :)

This game was very fun to play, the art style is really nice and the input are responsive. Maybe you could highlight the elements you can interact with for more clarity. Anyway you did a great job, the dialogues and situations were so random, I loved them!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm very much not an artist but I had a lot of fun making the art for this. The game definitely needed an indicator, so thank you for pointing it out. I'll most likely add one post-jam. Thank you for playing!

Pretty funny game! Takes me back to those Flash game days where a lot of them were point-and-click adventures. Got to the end and it's pretty funny how it's my second game in this jam that takes the literal "getting started to actually playing another game" theme and they have the same endings!

Some feedback I have:

  1. It would be nice to be indicated what objects and areas are interactible, like for example I didn't know where the stairs were at first. 
  2. The collision box on the wire in the breaker box minigame is too small and make the clicking and dragging feels very unresponsive. 
  3. Next time you don't have to zip the whole source code of your project in Godot for it to run, you just needs to export the executable and upload that.
Developer

Yeah, I figured I probably did something wrong with my export when I saw other people's. Thank you for telling me, I'll keep it in mind for the future. And thank you for the detailed feedback too! It seems like the stairs are getting everyone lol, I regret putting that off now. I'll try to prioritize game clarity more in future projects.

(Also what's the other game? I'm curious)

Submitted(+1)

I think the other game I was talking about is this one: Gotta Touch Grass 6

Developer

Oh sick, I'll have to check that out

A game about trying to play a game. A true classic for this game jam. Also pretty funny and random!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad the humor landed :3

That was really fun to play. I'm amazed how believable the sense of being slowly overwhelmed was, despite the obvious ridiculousness of certain situations.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! That's very much what I was going for and I'm glad it worked for you

The humor is stellar, the music is great too, this is incredibly fun! The one issue I had is that I spent maybe way too much time trying to find the stairs lul, an arrow of sorts when you're over it may have helped.
One final note, do not challenge me to press a button many times. I will see how deep I can get, I must be so valuable now. No 10k clicks message tho smh... 
Also, bananabreadz

Developer

I should've known someone would be psychotic enough lmao (10K???). An indicator for when you can interact with an object was on my to do list before I promptly forgot about it so uh.. sorry for your stairs issue lol, but it's noted. Thank you for playing! Bananabreadz!

Dude, what an amazing game! My favorite from the jam so far! The humor is subtle but really funny, the graphics are simple yet effective, and the gameplay is super engaging—I could feel the protagonist's rage. Congrats, man!
