The game was amazing! The approach to the story was really cool, and it reminded me of Tamodachi Game. The quick time events were also implemented beautifully and executed with precision. Great work!

"Oh this is a nice sweet game, I really like these chara- OMG JOHN!!!" 10/10 game, would recommend to everyone!
always happy to see someone who makes everything themselves!
very cute and a great spin on the theme!
The dialogue was a little long-winded, but the visuals and audio were pretty great.
The only "Serious" game i've played so far in this jam. You're really talented to put together this game in such a short time!

First of all, John' s cafeteria story broke my heart! :)
Besides that, i don't want to give away too much, but this is a really unique game, very cool!
The mini versions of the sprites are adorable! Quite impression under the time
Pretty solid game without any bugs 💚 i've loved the minimal but cute art!
My only suggestion is to make minigames faster and shorter
Really great job, well done! 💚
Cool visuals and I didn't expect the the violence twist at all. The core loop is a little dragged out and repetitive.
very serious, very engaging, and very danganronpa of you (a the goofy animal mascot in a game of death way)!! i also wish the mini games could have been a tiny bit shorter and more varied BUT it was a game jam so it makes sense. additionally i really loved the mini game music; it was so ominous, stressful, and perfectly on theme.
I like the concept of a game show of death, it's pretty twisted. The art is really good, too. Since the game is somewhat long, I think it would have benefited from a different minigame or two. but it was still enjoyable.
The game was very well made, The visuals were nice and the character designs were fun. The dark twist was also surprising and made it quite serious
There were supposed to be multiple mini-games; just didn’t have the time… So I understand how playing the same thing over and over got annoying for you. Although it’s important to note, the rules wouldn’t work without a forced mini-game on cycles where a yellow wasn’t rolled. Or at least it would make the game last much longer and the game’s long enough as it is.
Also, the loss of limbs do affect all contestants in the mini-game. Odds of them failing increase with each terror! That also applies to the player. If you get hit by a terror, the keys will fade faster! I’m sure there was a good way to visually hint at the others being affected, but time management’s hard, haha!
