Cool game! Loved the vintage windows aesthetics and the puzzles were interesting.

Developer

Thank you. We had fun making it!

Developer

Thank you!

I also played alot of Lemmings on my Amiga 500 back in the days, got some flashbacks to that. Also very nice coherent theme and relaxed mood in this game. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! We did use Lemmings as one of our inspirations.

Oh, that's my favorite. ✨

Developer

Awesome! I'm happy to read that.

Submitted(+1)

The art style was phenomenal and the concept was a lot of fun. It felt like an excellent homage to Lemmings while still having its own identity. The only thing I really wished for was audio controls and a way to fast forward once the puzzle was solved. Really great job!

Developer

We had a blast making this, and yes, the fast forward in hindsight is something we should have realised. Audio controls also is a fair critique.

loved it. big lemmings fan growing up, so happy to see this subgenre still gets some love. giving them names and tracking their deaths was the cherry on top! 

Developer

Thanks!  A little Easter Egg: Our first names are also some of the Patchlings in the game!

Is one of you called Tofu? Because he was my favourite.

Developer

Haha, no. I hope Tofu survived your run then. ;)

Submitted

Fun puzzle game, the music stuck in my head now

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Welp, one more victim to having the music stuck in your head. I have the same issue...

Submitted

Love the game, the music, the sound design the aesthetics, the nostalgia for lemmings. Beautiful game.

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it.

Submitted

The Windows 95 Aesthetic is really cool everything fits the jam theme nicely! I wish there were a speed up function, though, as the Patchling characters are so slow especially when you have the solution all worked out.

Developer

Thanks for playing! The speed up function is coming after the jam ends.

Thanks. I played yours as well. Good luck!

Fun game! 😄 Would love to have a speed-up button to speed up the bot

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! The fast-forward is coming when the patch is over. 

Submitted

A fast forward would definitely be nice.
But excellent puzzle game with plenty of room for expansion!

Developer(+1)

The fast forwards button will be put in when the jam's over.  Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

Submitted

What a polished, tidy experience! Great art style, clean execution, clever puzzles! I think a fast-forward option would be nice on some levels, while other levels I think you could consider cutting two of the patchlings out of it (namely ones where you're repeating the same sequence several times in a row).

In any case, I'm impressed and I think this comes together very cohesively. Nicely done!

Developer(+1)

The amount of patchlings has been an internal debate as well, but I think the lack of a fastforward makes that issue even more apparent. We're keeping it in mind if we'd continue developing Patchlings.

Submitted

great mechanic and tie-in with the theme. it lends itself to lots of variety in the gameplay and levels. Sadly icouldnt get past the 3rd stage haha. Art is beautiful and fits the overall vibe nicely. Overall well done!

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you! I had a lot of fun creating the Patchlings.

Submitted

Great job! At first I thought it was like a Pingus remake but the game mechanic is really awesome! It fits the theme real well. It would be nice if we could have a fast forwards button. Super cool!  

Developer

Thanks for playing! I just looked Pingus up and I see the resemblance. The fast forwards button is on the to-do list for when the jam ends.

Submitted

Superb execution

Developer

Thank you!

Evoking memories of childhood waiting for transfers. A much simpler time. Fantastic work

Hmmm, yeah... the old days... *ponders*
