This was a very unique and fun interpretation of the "wave" theme with some very impressive character art for such a small amount of time! It also had excellent music and animation in terms of painting the joyful park atmosphere. I had some trouble figuring out how the mechanics of the game worked in terms of which characters belonged to which groups. I think the UI contributed to this as it was a bit hard to pick out with how busy the scene could get and I didn't quite know how to interpret the symbols at times. I had to do a lot of trial and error type steps to understand how the mappings worked. But all in all, there is some very high quality elements to this game. Great work!

I loved how bazaar this game was to play. The fun music and characters bouncing around. A simple change that you could do to make the game a bit more intuitive is to 1) make the UI a bit more readable by placing solid backgrounds behind text and 2) use the sprites of the things that the characters were holding instead of the emojis. I couldn't really tell which people fit into which category because the emoji's didn't really match any group of people the way that I expected. I thought that your entry was a very creative take on the theme of WAVES. Keep up the good work!

so goofy i love it! the characters, the music, the vibes  - great job! only thing is it was sometimes a little hard to understand which people were which category, like the tophat emoji for example, I didn't get if it was people with hats or people that where fancy that I should avoid which made it a little frustrating at times - so maybe a small cue in text underneath the emoji could make that more clear - but otherwise I loved it!
