Use of the limitation
All of the tiles can "die" (they get toxified), and the enemies can also die. That's pretty much the whole game, so everything can die.

Cookies eaten
Probably like 50 pretzel sticks

Really fun game overall, and i really like the artstyle and it's so polished too. Really nice !

Submitted

Pretty fun game! It has great ideas, and, it does use the limitation very well! I like the art too. It's not the best art in the world, but it's still pretty charming! The game does feel a bit difficult at times, because you do need to click in a lot of places at once, and it feels a bit overwhelming even by level 3, haha.

Submitted

I was not able to complete this game lol! Very hard and a bit tough to understand what is happening at first but when it clicked I could really see what an amazing game this is.

Submitted

Cool idea!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

pretty good, it's fun, graphics are a bit ugly but enough to be enjoyable

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Art definitely isn't our specialty, but I didn't think we did bad on it. What makes you say it's ugly?

Submitted

It doesn't look horrible, but it looks a bit bad. I don't know much about art either, but that's the impression I get.

Submitted

Cool game, took me a minute to figure it out but once I did it was a good time

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

Is there even a way to win the game? or I am just noob?

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

There isn't a way to "win" the game, it's more about getting as far as you can!

Submitted

really cool, kinda carpal tunnel simulator, but i like the concept alot!

Submitted

Really fun, but kind of a carpal tunnel simulator. My finger hurts... But it's pretty fun otherwise :)

Submitted

I really like the opening menu! nice color scheme, carpal tunnel inducing

Submitted

Very cool concept and I like the lite strategy vibe to it!

Hand dead

Developer

Thank you! Your hand lived an honorable life, rest in piece

Submitted

very cool game, original concept, i liked, fingers tired, nice work.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

OMG my hand is hearting :D I can't beat level 3.

Nice idea, good sounds!

Developer

Thank you! Sorry for your hand!

Submitted

requires A LOT of clicking but it looks great and is fun until my finger cramps up

Developer

Yeah that definitely happens lol. I found if you click off of the game, just outside of the game window, you can pause it and give your finger a rest!

Submitted

it is too hard

Developer

I agree, partially. I was really worried about it being too easy so I ramped up the difficulty. I do think it'd be good for a full game -- if and when we continue this -- to have a slower difficulty curve. For a game jam though, I think it's a good length since it isn't a very long playtime with the difficulty being where it is. If we do ever continue it we will definitely change the difficulty curve, thank you for the feedback!

Submitted

my finger is dead and the difficulty curve is insane 10/10

Developer

I'm glad you liked it! Just now realizing I should've put a destruction of finger disclaimer

Submitted

My figure is getting destroyed. 
Cool concept.  Got over level 4

Developer

Thank you! Level 5 is pretty difficult, farthest I've seen is level 6
