There’s a lot of fun and puzzles in this game. It doesn’t hold your hand and lets you try and explore what we’re required to do. It is very exploratory in nature in this way. I think some of the puzzles achieve this better than others.

I think the buttons/question mark puzzle is the hardest of them all, and I wouldn’t say that it is in a good way, because the button you’re meant to click blinks once in “blue”, but then becomes the same color as the others. Also it blinks it a color that become duller, which means it’s harder to notice it when it does. For the first times I tried that puzzle, I didn’t even notice it was blinking, and even the following times, I didn’t always see it, or look at it in time. I think this puzzle could be improved by making it blink in a color that has more contrast instead of less contrast than the other yellow buttons. I also think it should blink a couple more times, if not even the whole time.

I think the traffic lights puzzle could also be improved. Although it has good sound effects to help us notice when the light has changed, you also should keep it in mind that 10% of men and a lower percentage of women are colorblind and can’t distinguish red from green, so as the puzzles require us to spin the traffic light around, they don’t get to see if the light is green or red by the usual standard of “red is the upper one, green is the bottom one”. So I think this could be helped with icons, like the pedestrian icon (walking vs waiting) and/or a continuous sound effect.

The snail puzzle is cute and the watering puzzle is also very cute. They have sound effects, as well, and I think they’re both well achieved, if a bit confusing at the first time we meet the watering puzzle because I didn’t know I could move the pot. But I think it has a good outline that gives you the information that you can interact with it, so it’s like the trial and error.

I think it would be nice to have a couple of “lives” so we can retry the same level we couldn’t do, instead of retrying since the beginning of the game (when we lose). I also think, for accessibility, it would greatly benefit from different levels of how many lives you have, up to infinite maybe, and also speed of the water rising.

This is a great game, if very hectic and hard, it’s really cool and one of the best I’ve played from the jam.

Amazing game!! Really enjoyed all the different puzzles!! I made it all the way to the little monster that gets sick when you spin the safe. The music fit perfectly and the art was really cute! One of my favs so far!

Five stars across the board! Felt like a mix of bop-it, Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, and Wario Ware, with how you're working against a timer to complete all these different mini games. Really love how charming each mini game is. I've seen variations of the snail puzzle tons of times but contextualizing as bringing food to a snail is so cute and the animations brought a smile to my face. Really impressive how quick it is to understand each puzzle and the way the complexity builds is cool. At it's heart the game is a very simple but clever idea executed extremely well.

omg, where do I even start with this beast 

ok, so first of all the idea itself. making it work based on tiny puzzles/minigames is genius, cause no matter how simple the minigame themselves are, there can be endless complexity based on what other minigames are on screen at the time, and having some of those be a balancing act or something similar is great for not overwhelming the player while still being challenging. the puzzles themselves are fun, but putting them all together in different ways is just, wow

I have to mention how phenomenal the art is, it's so full of charm and just plain looks good, and the animations on everything really push that charm even more, and the sounds and other effects on each interaction feels reaaaaally good. and the music, omg I'm such a fan of the music. I love how it's all the same track from start to finish with different layers based on whether you're in a cutscene or playing or on the game over screen etc. and I don't know if it was just me, but by the end I felt like it picked up with more instruments and I got goosebumps! and the sequence near the end where the water speeds up significantly and you only have to do one puzzle felt like such an amazing sendoff, like a showcase of each puzzle, really glad you included that

overall the game's just amazing, it didn't overstay its welcome, and it's without a doubt one of the highlights in this jam. 5 stars across the board from me, good luck :)
