Did your team create most/all of the graphics yourselves?
Yes

Did your team create most of/all the audio yourselves?

How did you incorporate the theme "PATCH IT UP"?
Moths have left holes in everyone’s clothes and you run The Patchshop, matching silly animal customers with the right patch so you can earn enough for rent before the lights go out. You literally "patch it up" by patching up the holes in their clothes with patches.

Awesome entry, and from a fellow construct 3 user :) I looooved the art, my favorite guy was the mushroom guy :)

I like the concept a lot, kind of reminds of the game Papers Please. The game was more challenging than I expected with the cute art but I enjoyed it. I somehow bugged it one time where just clicking randomly on the screen would sometimes skip to the next person but I'm not sure how as I tried again to recreate it but it didn't bug. Anyways, good job. 👍

I'm slower than most at reading, so for someone like me I think it would be neat if the hint was shown to you with as much time as you need to process it, but the options are kept hidden until you click to continue, at which point the timer would start, (but I don't know if in practice this would have the same flow). I'm impressed with the level of polish you were able to achieve in such a short time.

Amazing game! I really loved the character designs. This is a really cool interpretation of the theme. I like that at points it really makes you think and having to remember certain stuff. I did find some of the hints vague or sometimes stupid at points. I do understand how this is the most rated game in the jam, great job!

The art and sound are really cute, especially when I get a perfect match! I retried several times to beat Day 3. I read a bit slowly and sometimes have to check the dictionary :) But I still had a lot of fun!

Developer

Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed the art and sound, and that the perfect matches felt rewarding. Day 3 is definitely a tough one, so it’s awesome you kept retrying. I really appreciate you taking the time to play and share your experience!

Fun and cozy, I love the artwork, the audio and the whole take on the theme of the jam. I would loosen up the day by day scores a bit but not by much. Sweet and fun to play, great game.

Thank you so much! I’m really happy you enjoyed the cozy feel, artwork, and audio. I appreciate the feedback on the scoring too ... I’ll keep that in mind if I end up doing updates to it. Glad you had fun playing!

This game was so cute! It was really difficult at times, 🤔 in a fun challenging way. I really bonked the last day and was closed. 😔

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it, even with the challenge. If you click ‘Retry’ on the summary page instead of ‘See Ending,’ you can start again from Day 3 without losing all your progress. After you watch the ending though it restarts the whole game. Just in case you decide to go for the happy ending one day! 😊
