I don't know if that's because im so tired but some mingames felt like they gave you too little time, but the concept and the presentation were fun and the minigames original, maybe tomorrow i will try it again and try to beat the game.

Developer

Hey, glad you enjoyed the game. Could you tell me which minigames you struggled with so I can balance them in the next update? There is also an easy mode you can try which should reduce the challenge. Good luck beating it if you try again!

Submitted

It's Warioware but with mouse and keyboard controls and a theme about making a game - I like it

Submitted

Its a really nice game! But really the only hard part for me is to copy the code, it catches me off guard!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I agree that the copy the code game can be a little hard and I'm looking into balancing it in the next update!

Submitted

Pretty cool game and really fits the theme. Very fun mini-games too! The "don't delete the game" really had me sweating...

Developer

Yeah... that big red button is very tempting, hope you could resist it! Glad to hear you enjoyed the game!

Submitted

Cool little mini game collection and a nice take on the theme. It counted shooting the bug as a loss despite me hitting him which felt a little unfair but otherwise had fun with it.

Developer

Sorry to hear you encountered that bug, it seems to happen 25% of the time but I'm looking into fixing it! Glad you could still enjoy the game!

Submitted

Interesting game. Pretty cool art style and animations!

Developer

Glad you liked it!

Submitted

I love this game, so many exciting minigames ! I feel like some of them would need balancing by adding time ! Overall excellent work !

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm looking into balancing the minigames in a post-jam update, could you tell me which games you struggled with?

Submitted

the copy the code one and the prove you are not a robot (when you have to type after clicking)

Developer(+1)

I've heard complaints about those before, they'll 100% be getting easier in the next update!

Submitted

really fun minigames, enjoyed the variety and they were short and understandable. only problem was sometimes the minigame was hard to understand at first (i didn't realise 'defend the code' had text at the bottom first time, and both times i got "shoot the bugs" i shot my bullets before the intro text appeared). great job otherwise though!

Developer(+1)

Glad you enjoyed the game! I didn't know about the bug in the shoot the bugs game but that will be fixed in the next update! I'm also looking into making it more clear what you need to do in each minigame!

Submitted

Really fun! the only minigame that was a bit unfair was the i'm not a robot one! Still pretty solid game!

Developer

Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed! You're not the first to complain about that minigame, so I'm looking into making it easier after the jam!

Submitted

Pretty cool mini-game sim.

Some of these were really tough but there were some gimmes in there as well so overall the balance was okay. It helped a lot to play in fullscreen.

The music was hella catchy :)

Developer

Glad you enjoyed! Could you tell me what games you found hard/unbalanced? I'm working on a post-jam update and would love to hear where you struggled so I can improve the game!

Submitted

I think the one where you had to delete the trash was a bit confusing (others have mentioned?) 

Also the copy code? I didn't know whether I had to highlight the code and copy and paste it or just type it in manually.

I think those were the ones that stood out to me.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! You're not alone on the trash game. I'm looking into making trash more obvious! In the copy the code minigame you're supposed to type it, but I'm working on making all the mini tutorials more clear in the next update!

Submitted

No way I could type that in 5 seconds or whatever. Please make it 5 minutes LOL

Developer(+1)

5 minutes might be a little bit too easy, but I'm looking into giving each string of code you need to retype its own length so that they're all balanced!

Submitted

lots of fun to play, feels really polished :)

Love that the game actually has a settings menu, and different filter options, that's a really cool touch

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! Happy to hear it felt polished and that you enjoyed the filters, did you use any of them?

Submitted

Super fun and witty

Submitted

Super fun short and creative game

Submitted(+1)

the game is fun, alot of the games could be clearer on what you are meant to do 

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm working on an update that should make a lot of the games more clear!

Submitted

Nice! a lot of mini games and random. Awesome!
I got froze at the screen after clik quit game at menu, did not completely exit

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! The quit button freezing the menu is a quirk of web builds, if you download the game it closes correctly. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Love that you came up with so many different games - however as others already mentioned some are missing balance in my point of view e.g. Smashing the game done... if its just smashing the LMB, the most I personally could get were 45%-ish.

But since you have 3 Strikes its fine!

Good job.

Developer

Thanks! You're supposed to mash your whole keyboard in that, in the next update I'm adding little icons to make it obvious what kind of control scheme each minigame uses along with some other balancing changes.

Submitted

Nice theming

It's a lil hard to see sometimes and the difficulty varies quite a bit between the games, but they're still pretty fun

Maybe consider having the in-game monitor take up more screen space

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm looking into balancing the game a bit for the next update. Were there any minigames you found too easy or too hard? I might change the screen size a bit, but as all the minigames were built around the current one I'd have to change a lot of them!

Submitted

Ok I love this game, the minigames are all nice and short and felt fun and different enough from each other to be engaging. Great work with this genre! The last level was a little hard, but it was so much fun and such a quick play that I had to keep coming back to finish it :)

Developer

Glad you had a blast! The last minigame was intended to be a little bit difficult, I hope you  still managed to beat it! Just curious, was there anything else you liked/disliked about the game?

Submitted

You know, the menu effects were incredible, they had no right being so slick. I don't think I had anything to dislike about the game at all...

Submitted

Fun idea! Found it a little bit hard.haha. I feel like some of the mini games I only understood what I need to do after failing a couple of times. I also feel like the counter should only start counting down once the mini game starts, not from when the name of the mini game is shown.
Otherwise well done! Nice submission

Developer

Thanks! The timer starting before the minigames started is intended to create a little tension, and if it's too hard you can always  play easy mode. I'm looking into making what you're supposed to do a bit more obvious in the next update!

Submitted

i liked the idea, it fits really well with the jam's theme and big amount of minigames makes it really enjoyable to play even if you fail a lot. I just don't understand why when it asked to delete junk files the game striked me for deleting the homework folder ://

Developer

Thanks for playing! We gotta teach the kids that homework isn't junk and that you shouldn't delete it! The files you are supposed to trash have a darker shade of green on their names to differentiate them, but I'll probably make it a little more obvious in the next update!
