This was such a cool game. It feels very polished, and the art style is super cool. The intuitive sound design made it nice and tense. Very well done!

The art looks great, and I like the concept, but I couldn't figure out how to progress, some more clues would be very helpful!

Developer

So sorry you couldn’t crack it! Where did you get stuck? My biggest hint would be to reference the classroom rules on the wall and let breaking those rules guide you.

Amazing game, was really entertaining. Was there more than one ending? I couldn't figure out what to do besides pull the fire alarm at the end. Really funny math problems, I was like, I used to know this why have I forgotten how to do this. Gave me a mini crisis, and there was NOT enough room to show my work hahaha.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Yes there are more endings, you might need to try showing the teacher more items.

There are 5 distinct losing endings (fire alarm is one) but they aren’t very dissimilar. There is only one win screen, where you leave and get to the party.

Oh yay! I figured it out thanks!

Great job, cool little puzzle game. Working out what I needed to do was fun, though the phone confiscation mini-game required a little to much clicking for my taste, though it did add some tension to it!  (just my poor finger is not built for it haha). Overall great work! 

Developer

Yeah I definitely went overboard with the click amount, didn’t have enough time to play test. Thank you so much for the feedback! If I update the game I’ll rebalance that :)

I love the unique art style. The gameplay is also very fun!

Developer

Thanks so much! I’m glad you liked it :)

Awesome game! Love the art! Initially didn't notice the vandalism part, then I was able to escape. A replay button when you lose could be useful though.

Developer

Definitely need a replay button! Thank you so much for the feedback. I think an intro cutscene to point players towards the rules list would be helpful, kinda fun to figure it out through trial and error though.

look's good and fun to play.....I enjoyed it

Developer

Thank you o7

really fun gameplay.  Audio added a lot to the experience and the polish shined in so many places like the pencil.  Art is so awesome and the sound when the teacher looks is awesome.  Well done!

Developer

I’ve made the mistake of leaving sound effects for last in past jams. I am glad I prioritized them this time. So much you can do with open source and public domain sounds. Thank you for the feedback!!

Insanely cool game. I love how you use the theme. This game remind me of my stupid summer school lol.

Developer

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enough it

The game looks cool but I’m not really sure how to progress after you got the pencil and the paper (after reading the other comments you are supposed to destroy the pencil somehow?) but I did run out of patience and did not proceed.

Some kinda hint would definitely helps though

Developer

The key is the rules sheet on the wall. There is one rule pointing you towards vandalism. What can you vandalize?

Submitted

Cool game! Art is really good and audio is really good too! It's kinda tricky to know what to do at first, but then you kinda figure it out!

When pulling the fire alarm, the screen goes black and you can't continue tho!

Developer(+1)

Oops! My web build wasn’t happy with the end game screens :\

You get a bad ending for pulling the fire alarm because it says to pull on it. That would be following the rules lol

Developer(+1)

Used the 2-day grace period to change the one line of code that broke this. A teeny tiny bit of more content for you.

Submitted(+1)

I love the game, it's so unique?! Sadly, I pulled the fire alarm and I got stuck on a red screen so I'll have to try again later. Maybe I'm dumb but it took me so long to figure out how to destroy my pencil LMAO. 

The sound effects actually gave me anxiety each time I heard that dreaded cue. Hahhh. Great game!

Developer

Fixed the bugs! Thank you so much once again. Now the two broken end screens are working :)
