I love the idea, really great take on the theme! Unfortunately I did reach a point where the player stopped being able to move on the conveyor belts due to glitchily getting caught on the walls, which made the game pretty difficult to play. (jam games be like that sometimes lol) But before that it was really neat and I love the art, good job!
Omg, Jimmy C has replied to my game 2 years in a row. As for the conveyor belt, we overscoped a bit, and thus missed some very obvious softlocks, but I'm glad you enjoyed it up to that point!
P.S: Your youtube video has singlehandedly carried my itch.io career, so thanks a ton for the shout out.
3 edits lol
Thank you so much!
I love the art! Very cute game and really built well on what is effectively just musical chairs lol
I think it would be interesting to add more "maps" with obstacles or something like that. Great submission all around though!
Thank you so much! Yeah we had the framework for different maps and types of obstacles other than the wall but we overscoped and ended up not having enough time to do it. We'll definitely try to make some in future versions! Thanks again!
Great audio, art, and responsive controls!
Thank you!
I really like this game! The idea, art, music and gameplay are all very good :)
Thank you!
This brings back childhood trauma T^T) With a little UX work this could be a sweet experience, since the concept is really charming. I’d maybe penalise contact with the other Sushi pieces somehow. Seems like snuggling with your rival is really OP atm.
Yeah a lotta bugs were incredibly hard to fix but Im glad you enjoyed it
Looks fun! I heard like battle royale & chair music combined! Excellent work!
Thanks!
Sushical chairs is genius and fun! Wasn't really sure how to use the sauces to slow enemies down, I couldn't drag them, they just landed on where my cursor was, which was at the button itself. They were too bad for me anyways, amazing game :D
Yeah using the sauces wasn't the clearest. We already made an update to fix that it bit, hopefully we'll release it once rating is over. Thanks for the review!
This game was awesome. The animation with the chopsticks grabbing the sushi cracked me *up*!
Lol thank you!
Very solid, and the theme works well. I also enjoy the Survivor.io style power-up system.
Thank you!
Hey! Just wanted to tell you that the update is out. There are hopefully no more bugs, and we added in a couple features and improvements you might like. Make sure to check it out and tell us what you think!
Really fun game ! Love the title and the concept, good job ! I want sushi now though :/
Lol thanks!
It can be a great game, but i experience many bugs. Like the items available in the arena can't be picked or the music was buggy and glitchy sometimes. Overall its cool, even if i feel the game too easy after you get Player speed upgrades and enemies speed decrease
Yeah there is plenty of bugs crawling in the game, we did not give enough time for testing. Also speed upgrades are definitely too good. Glad you still enjoyed it!
this was cute. unfortunately it was a little too lenient for my tastes which ended up making feel as though it overstayed its welcome a little bit, probably not the worst problem to have in a jam but it might've benefited from a stage or 2 less and a slightly steeper difficulty curve, but thats just my tastes talking, the core was very very strong! i think "musical chair"-likes could be the new thing. the power ups were super creative too. good work!
Yeah we definitely overscoped somewhat which left us with little time for fine tuning level design. The difficulty is on the easier side which is good for having more players enjoy but can get boring like you said. Having a sort of option to increase difficulty would absolutely improve the game. Thank you so much for the kind words and detailed feedback!
Also, big fan of your games so it is really nice seeing you here. I really liked your game this jam too, I'll leave a comment soon as I am able to. Thanks again!
Unsurprised that the creator of IRIS thought that the game was too easy, jk. Thanks for the kind words, and difficulty curves are definitely not our strong suit.
Yk, I never would have thought that musical chairs would be that fun as a single player video game, turns out its fantastic. I loved everything about this game :)
Thank you so much! I agree, the game surprised me with how fun it turned out being lol
great game! i really loved getting to the championship. If I had the time, I can see myself keep playing till I beat it! great art! and great work!
thank you!!
It's a cute game, I had fun. The items are overpowered I think, and overall the game is a bit easy.
I like your interpretation of the theme !
The items are definitely strong but that's what makes the game fun. Thank you for the feedback!
this is so cute and satisfying
Thank you!
cute.. could play for days... wish you can change to other characters too (with various stats - bigger hitbox but slower pace etc)
Honestly that sounds like a really cool feature for expanding the game, thanks!
Yes, it was fun! The atmosphere is nice and the pixel art is really well done. Loved this entry.
Thank you!
Great fun. I hope this turns into a fully-fledged game. Well done.
Thank you!!
CUTE ART! it was so fun and addictive, the punching power is the best for me hahaha
Thank you! Punching is so hard to do properly, it takes more skill than I have, congratulate yourself lol
