Really great concept and super fun! The characters are very charming! I really hope you get around to making a full version! Fantastic job!

Submitted

Loved the idea behind this!! I wish there was more time for it to shine, given that most of the objects were just for placing or showing to other people. I think the umbrella in the sewer best displayed how unique of gameplay this mechanic could have brought. Charming time overall, and very interesting!

Submitted

Pretty creative, hope it makes it to the top 50, the video pitch didn't really sell the concept well enough though

Developer

I think it did.

Yep. This is Top 5 material. The switching between real life and video game is a really interesting mechanic i think shined best in the sewer level , in which , btw , i think would be really nice if there was a checkpoint!!!!!!!!!!! The music was lovely , the melody reminded me of Space Song from Beach House. Very polished!! Great job!

Really good and fun, sucks that it's a bit too short, but very good nonetheless.

Submitted

Cool game, would love to see this in the collection with a little polish 

Submitted

Really creative.. and congrats because johny Razer showed your Game in a Video. Make it a full Game, it has potential

Submitted

Very cute. I'll start by saying I liked it, but there were some details that didn't let me enjoy the game as much as I would have liked.

For example, the audio: everything has a different volume, and there's no menu to adjust the volume...

But the game is great, and I think it's worth trying to make a complete and improved version

Submitted

Such a cool idea. Great job. I loved everything about it

Submitted

Absolute PEAK! The GameBox mechanic is so fun to play with!!!! I NEED a full game of this after the game jam for sure 🙏

Submitted

This game is wonderful! The one thing I would suggest is turning down the mouse sensitivity or having a menu where you can change settings

Games really good, I love the mechanics, im too bad and dont really understand how to progress though...

Submitted

Very good execution of the theme. The game is very cute and polish!

Submitted

Incredibly cute!!! I like how unique the mechanic is too!! The In Game Artstyle is also just incredibly charming!

Submitted

FIrst of all, increadible game, the amount of love and work that has been poured into it is amazing The pixel art is amazing, the 3d modeling also very good and it is all around a great game visualy. 

It is also pretty nice to play, the main mecanic is really good, it has so much potential and already a lot of clever stuff has been done (cf the umbrella). I have made it to the alien girl but I couldn't give her an instrument, I may have missed a lot because there is still a lot of objects I haven't used.

Even in this unfinished state the game was fun to play, the movement in the game box is on point. In the 3d world it is more unfinished, the mouse moves way to quickly but tbh it doesn't break the game at all. But a few collision error can ruin the game I think, for exemple I have lost the can in a piece of furniture and could not get it back. 

Audio wise the game is great. Story wise for now the game is fun, the character design is very very good. 

Overall great game, idk what I have missed or if it is the end of the jam build, either way, a lot of potential !

Submitted

Great idea. The art is very cute, and the music complements the game perfectly.

Submitted

Hey, I tried your game and I really liked the concept of using real-world objects to interact with the game box, it feels really clever and playful!!!!

I’m also in the jam, so if you get a chance to check my game I’d love to hear your thoughts

really cool game, i just wish there was a mouse sensitivity setting

grate game but i soft locked my self 

Submitted

The idea and the art is really cool. Sad that it couldn't be fully finished in time, but excited for hopefully a full version in the future. Mouse sensitivity was also crazy high, but that may be because I keep my physical mouse pretty high on sensitivity.
