Theme Interpretation
Not A Prize reimagines a retro arcade claw machine as a survival game. Instead of winning a prize, you play as the toy trying to escape the claws and avoid being dropped into the prize exit.

A fun concept, I accidentally died by running into the red square my first go around. I did feel like it was a bit too easy, but fun still!
Interesting concept, was able to play for a bit but somehow managed to run off the screen to the right after falling out of a claw and then wasn't able to get back on screen (and the claws weren't able to find me... so there was that).
My favorite part was being able to hitch a ride on top of the claw machine!
Cool small idea and it is executed well. Good job! (However, when activating my critical side, you could add some sounds, main menu and 2D sprites) Hope you learned a lot in this game jam and will benefit from it in future game jams
