Cool game, I feel like I progressed a bit slower than I would have liked however. 

Have a Wonderful Day and good luck in the Jam!

Very nice, hamter do a spin :) It did feel slower than it could have been for an incremental game production-wise, maybe a 2x boost to the production would help. Also would have been nice to have some way to automate the feeding, as the highest wheel tier ran out very quickly. Besides that, was quite good and I beat it :D

I'm a sucker for idle/clicker games, and I had a blast playing your game. :)

I think a bit of number tweaking could make the pacing feel better, as the full playthrough was just a little too long.

The one thing that felt a bit frustrating was that money generation is tied to HP, since every money machine reduces it. It felt like HP was always lagging behind

For future versions, you could maybe add a way to automatically feed the hamsters, and perhaps let players buy upgraded versions of the machines directly instead of purchasing each tier individually.

Loved it!

Very fun! Perhaps a touch to long - but I still managed to get through it! I love these games. :D Nice submission!

I like this kind of games, its always nice to see some of them in a game jam. This one is quite fun to play through.

I liked the audio, but it gets a bit repetitive over time. Also for a jam game, I wished you could click a bit faster through the upgrades to experience more of the game without people clicking away.

One small thing I also felt was missing was an automated way to feed the hamsters. For start, its good that you have to drag food over them manually, but it might make sense to automate it in some way.

Overall, well done. I liked the graphics and the theme was applied in a good way. Good job :)

good game! did notice a possible small audio bug when i was clicking on the hamster wheel. audio seemed to get slower and buggier then sped back up after i stopped clicking

Hi! dropping by after you rated my game! I think this would be a good foundation for an incremental game.
I think being able to spend money on like, a sort of automatic food distributor thing would be a really good upgrade.

I only wished that when the hamsters ran out of food instead of pausing the sprite's animation they would instead get eepy, as for about just like, thirty seconds I thought my game bugged lol
maybe audio wise I might suggest adding variations to the squeak when you click on the hamster, maybe make it sound like a wheel spinning because maybe its not intended but when I beat the game I pulled up a YT vid and uh.. watched it whilst clicking the main hamster before occasionally glancing to feed them. and hearing the same squeak for about 20 minutes has sort of burned the noise into my ears? kind of? (prolly not intended to beat the game by clicking the main hamster the whole time)

Hello! as a fellow hampter fan myself, i REALLY Loved the game! the Audio is great! and the theme is good too! just that for a game jam the game is a bit slow paced, try to lover the costs and upgrade curve in future jams! wish you all the best!

A charming little game. Visuals and music are very cute. It takes too long to beat, though, the visuals and audio can only carry it so far with nothing else to incentivise players.

Thank you for your thoughts, we appreciate your feedback!

good work! I found the feedback to be a little lacking, maybe some sound to indicate that I'm trying to buy something with not enough HP. I love an idle game, but for a jam submission it would make sense to speed things up since we have a lot of games to rate!
