very awesome game no notes tbh

A really fun experience with a stellar artstyle and absurd and well-written cast of characthers- I ran into one or two minor bugs but otherwise this is a very polished game and one of my favorites so far!

Developer

thx so much about your review, was the bug a grey outline?

Submitted(+1)

It seemed to be some kind of softlock ? After retrieving the first part and moving to the next room, I couldn't start the conversation with the NPC and also couldn't continue on. It was only a one time issue though and went away after restarting

Submitted(+2)

Wow, just wow this is really exceptional- this is not the craziest game I’ve played in this jam, but definitely a full experience. From start to finish it was really clear how much effort and time went into this.

Its so well polished, the visuals are stunning, the style is charming- even in the main menu, the sounds are funky and the story is nice.

take my 25/25, you earned it!

please keep making games, you guys certainly have a knack for it!

Developer(+1)

Thx so so so much I will keep working hard !!

CUTE. I like the characterization of all the little guys, and how different each minigame feels to play. very different challenges in each phase of the game. luck is not on my side with these slots but the game looked great, smart to throw on the crt to enhance the feel of the cartoony style. nicely done!!

Developer

NO FREAKING WAY ! I can't believe you are in my comments, thx So so so much you played the game. I hope you didn't have any problems during your playthrough! Is there any feedback you can give ? 

Submitted(+2)

The art in this is soo nice, I really like the sock characters they're all very cute and so is their associated minigames, did I cheese the casino minigame on the 2nd playthrough? yes i did, and i'm proud of it. I like the pipe puzzle the most, wish there was a bit more since it's a very short game but what it does try to do it does very well.

Some feedback, not sure if I missed it in both playthroughs but I don't think it's ever implied that left click rotates the trapdoors or the thingies in the first jumping minigame, had to accidently trigger that to learn about it.
I encountered a minor bug which seems to be already known so I'll save the time.

And the moral the story is trying to tell is very nice and is conveyed well in this short experience, I liked it alot!

Developer

Thx a lot ! The pipe was randomly generated so idk if it was small or whatever. The snail tells you that you can rotate the platforms by clicking them when he was taking : ) , also congrats on mastering the slot machine mini game !!

Submitted(+2)

The art is really good, liked the crt effect. It is short but great, I got the easy pipe puzzle

Submitted(+1)

I thought wrench part was the end, went back and played again

Submitted(+2)

While it's a bit short of a game, it's very polished. I enjoyed the various characters, each paired with their own related mini-game. Slot machine went well after a few tries, and the water pipe puzzle was my favorite . . . the only critique would be it wasn't too clear what the objective was, like did I need all the pipes to be filled or was I just needing to connect to a part? Finally I found the right piece because I couldn't click to rotate it and well, mystery solved. Glad I got the chance to play it, was fun!

Submitted(+1)

The art in this game is crazy good and I really like the minigames. The slot minigame was sooo difficult though, I would have licked it to be a little easier but that's fine! I loved playing this game great job!!

Developer(+1)

Yeah I have fixed the slot machine in updated version

Submitted(+2)

They done slimed the wise sock :( Very polished short and sweet experience all around! Story is fun and the menus and gameplay have a lot of juice

Submitted(+2)

Really good art ! I've taking a lot of time to get that i can rotate the plateform (i was jumping on the top of the plateform who needed to be rotated)

Developer

Happy you liked it , anything else? Any problems with the mini games? Also which was your fav character

Submitted(+2)

Fun little adventure! I wish there was a bit more feedback when flipping the platforms as they are dead silent, and they could be a little bit more spaced out as I kept bonking my head onto some. I also did not enjoy the slots minigame AT ALL, took me so long to hit 3 in a row. The art was really good, and the music was nice, but i'd have also liked a toggle for the CRT effect.

Developer

Thx for the feedback.didnt have enough time for the sound effects bcz bugs was my priority. The slot is a little quick.... 

And the crt effect was bcz fou are inside the slot machine. In the updated version I will have a toggle button for it !

Submitted(+2)

I liked it a lot and the grey border didn't bother me at all

Really cool game! Great job

Submitted(+2)

OMG THAT WAS LOVELY!!! I am so happy I found this!

The whole experience was fun! The art is adorable especially monty!

I have some very very minor things I want to say; firstly that it seems like the background music doesn't loop, I took a little long with the snail and the music stopped, it started again after the actual minigame started.

2nd I failed the snail minigame a few times cuz I suck at platforming and the spinning platforms didn't reset after failing, I assume they were supposed to though.

And lastly I kinda found the tingeling sounds when you walk kind of annoying :P but that might just be personal, maybe it was slightly too loud? idk

Either way none of those things take away anything from this experience! And certainly don't take away a star from my part! 5/5 I loved this!

Developer

thxx so much, i had a settings for the walking sounds, bcz some people didnt like them! thx so much for your rating!! so happy someone mentions monty!!

Submitted(+1)

Yeah I didn't click on the settings initially but while playing I looked for a way to pauze/access the settings but couldn't find one. In the end it's a very minor complaint though, it wasn't close to being annoying enough for me to want to stop playing or discount it somehow

Developer

okok thx for feedback

Submitted(+2)

The game is super duper amazing the story is insaly good pretty funny the visuals were super simple but soo good it was an absolute banger music hope for an ost soon the game was super serious 

Developer

thx soo much, for calling the game a hidden jem in dc :3

Submitted(+2)

bec it is 🤷‍♂️

Submitted(+2)

Really cool game! The story and the visuals are the highlight here! Though I do find the game mechanics quite lacking on some parts. The platform has visibility issues of when it is flipped and I think there is a puzzle that is unsolvable. Though I still fully enjoyed it and if developed further, I can see this becoming like a fully fledged release in the future! Overall, I had a fun time! Great work!

Developer(+1)

thx so much, yeah the pipe puzzle can do that bcz of random generation, first time trying making something liek that, the art is all thanks tio my teamates

Submitted(+2)

If only sock's adventure was a little longer....
oh, and if you do that please make puzzles 100% possible

Developer

of course i will after the jam, i cant do something now, didnt have enought time , sorry

Submitted(+1)

I know bro, we are in the same boat with our hands tied for next 4 days

Submitted(+2)

Anyone who mutes the silly footsteps doesn't have enough whimsy in their lives. Great job on this!

Developer

thx a lot did you enjoy the story? is there something u would change?

Submitted(+1)

Loved the story. Had a really good balance of "serious" and serious.

Developer

yeah i believe every gaem should have a moment that makes the player think. Like have a moral!!
