Amazing visuals and series of mini-games! I failed half of them miserably, having fun in the process (=
this was lovely. i had a hard time to write the speech "since i'm a slow writer" but i really enjoyed it :) really fun and fitting game for the theme, love the game design and the minigames throughout the game :D
My dance moves were awful, but my enjoyment was high! This game is so ridiculous and distasteful, but in a funny and well-put-together way. For a minigame-based jam submission, it was really solid! Actually exceeded my expectations. Hope you do well.
This was very funny- but I am NOT a rhythm master XD My horrible dance moves probably single handedly ruined the funeral
I have NO idea how to mash faster for the coffin part though. I should never be trusted at funerals again
Glad you enjoyed the game! Maybe two hands is needed to get that mashing speed up. Thanks for playing!
Amazing and hilarious! I loved finding the hidden Grim Reaper in all the minigames. Reminds me of Jazzpunk a lot. And those squeaky soles during the dance!! Masterpiece.
Happy to hear that you noticed all of the Grim rapers everywhere haha. The squeaky soles were a last minute addition from Casey (Pozzo99), goes to show how small changes can make a large difference. Thanks for playing!
I had so much fun playing this! The minigames are so creative, and I could not stop laughing at the song choice for the dancing minigame. The humor in this game is on point and I cannot believe how good this game looks. I absolutely love the art direction, with the mixed media approach, especially at the end. I about lost it when the pngs of the real hands appeared.
The minigame structure was an absolute stroke of genius, and it made the game so replayable for me. I will say an option to replay certain minigames would be a great addition, but even as I say that I do really love playing them all back to back and trying to get a perfect run. My God of War muscle memory is definitely helping me at the end.
Although I can't give you five stars because in the coffin carrying minigame you cannot reach 69% durability ;).
But really though absolutely fantastic!!!
I really appreciate the thought you put into this comment! I'm so glad you had a great time with it, and y'know what you're completely right about the 69% thing and I deeply apologize for my shortsighted thinking. It won't happen again.
This game is hilarious awesome! So many fun mini games. Especially that dance music. That got me good
Thank you for playing! It's surprisingly hard to find techno Christian dance music so I'm glad you liked our choice!
I LIKED THIS A LOT!!! im a sucker for mini games and this was super duper fun and creative. i failed so hard at the coffin part, it felt like i was wearing heelies LOL! but besides that, it was fun!!
I'm glad you liked this! The coffin game seems like a common difficulty point so I definitely should have balanced it a bit better... My bad....
its okay!!! it was a good challenge even though i didnt complete it. i think it would be fine as long as the a & d keys didnt swing so wildly
The game was fun! The part where you carry the coffin felt like butter on ice even when turning around and feels too hard to control, but it's still doable with patience, the rythim part felt strange, maybe because I was playing on the browser but I couldn't feel the inputs, some feedback there would be nice. For the rest, it was cool. The art style and humor reminded me a lot of Jazzpunk (which adds extra points for nostalgia). Keep polishing the game and you'll have a pretty good product to sell! Keep it up!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback, I definitely overturned the coffin controls when trying to find an in-between of awful feeling but not too awful.
Similarly feedback on the dance game was my priority but in classic game jam fashion, building, build problems and bugs took the last hours I had 😭
I really appreciate your kind words and I'm glad you liked it!
I GOT MARRIED ON THE SPOT?!! BUT I HAVE A BOYFRIEND >:O
Jk, this game was spectacular and hilariously fits the theme so well. This gets a perfect 5/5 from me, so so so clever. Best part was the breakdancing despite me completely failing it LMAO. Also, shoutout all the dead people who showed up, you're real ones. Amazing work!
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
If we had an extra few hours we would've made the dance game a little bit cleaner and easier but time got the better of us. Glad you had fun despite completely failing it!
HILARIOUS! Definitely a game to be played while streaming to your friends.
Lol the puns! Also ick for picking up girls at a funeral lol
I failed at every mini game but it was still pretty fun and I'm glad you let me continue cos I'd still be stuck on the first one otherwise.
Loved the artwork for the little people as well.
Happy to hear that you enjoyed yourself! Yeah major ick from the protagonist haha. Perhaps we needed to balance the game a little bit more, thanks for the feedback! I really enjoyed your game too, great work!
Amazingly Fun game, I'm bad at it and still had a blast would love to see this as a full released game, even as is is amazing and fun and a full game to me.
Thanks so much for the kind words Laushea, We had a blast making it and happy to hear you had a blast playing it!
I clicked on this game for the hilarious title and was really surprised at how good it was. If you have the chance, please check out the game that I worked on Rate Write That Down by ElementalPenguin for Jamsepticeye - itch.io
I have made the mistake of enjoying this on my own, my laughs were spent in an empty room. Never again, sharing this one with my friends! Stealing flowers and grave digging were by far my favourite, the way he teleports...lmao
Thanks for playing and enjoying our game! yeah share it with anyone you want, the more joy it brings the better!
Awesome game. The humour was on point and everything felt super polished. I got skill checked though, so I guess I won't get her number any time soon. Keep it up! Great work!
Thankyou!! Hope you had a good laugh! I also won't be getting her number anytime soon....
Well they all hated me but that was super clever! Each minigame was really funny
[Death is an opportunity to GET THAT GUUUURRRL~.]
The first minigame I was like... "I know I got that right. I KNOW IT."
The second minigame, I was bursting out laughing cause "What? Why am I busting moves at a funeral whilst 'God is great' is playing?" Real tears streaming down my face as the music ended and MC's squeaky soles were still going.
3rd minigame, aw yiss them flowers weren't even being used anyways.
4th minigame, I'm sorry old man, whoever you were. That coffin DID NOT last.
5th DO YOU SEE THIS FINGERING WOMAN? DO YOU LIKE IT?
6th JESUS?
7th #####.
10/10 GAME.
The squeaky soles were a very last minute decision made after absolutely no sleep and it had us sitting there giggling for minutes. Thank you so much for the high praise, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome and fun, I yearn for more
this is the funniest thing i've ever seen.
hell yeah, glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing!
