I'ts quite cozy, love the newspaper! Would be nice if by mixing them they change colour. Overall I like the artstyle and gameplay.

This was really cute! I loved the newspapers, the messages from the customers, the music and the art.

It was a fun relaxing entry and was a perfectly wrapped game.

The timer feels arbitrary, wishing it was clearly counting down instead of counting up to 24. While this fits perfectly with the limitation of becoming the villain, I'm not sure how much it fits the theme of primal.


But overall, I really liked it! If this was a full game, I could see my wife playing it lots.

Thank you for playing!
Yes, we didn't really fit it to primal theme but it says on the jam page that the theme is completely optional, so we just focused on the limitation which isn't optional. And the 24 hour time is supposed to represent the time of day in 24 hour time.

you could have done something like in majoras mask where it could say something like "24 hours remain" That would make a clear countdown that's not just an arbitrary number.

Really cute, I loved the idea! I know time is usually tight in jams, but adding different colors for the various objects would have given it a really nice special touch

Thanks! We were thinking of adding this, but like you said we didn't have the time.

Really cute game with a great twist. The limitation is well implemented and I absolutely loved the newspaper clippings that showed up and game some nice world building. Well done!
