Ranked from 78 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
ACTION! is built around a countdown to the start of each take. Players operate a camera while the clock ticks down, adjusting framing, focus, and zoom before the director calls “Action!” At zero, they must start recording at the right moment to earn the best score.

Really cool concept and nicely executed! It was really tricky as you had to keep on top of more and more but it also scaled really nicely.

Excellent jam entry!

Great game but damn, this camera needs to be refund ! 😄 I had tons of fun, well done

Submitted

Very creative take on the theme! I enjoyed playing, would fight the camera again! xD

Submitted

Really creative concept! Unique take on the theme, and it played pretty smoothly (even when the camera drift was [intentionally] battling against me). Well designed AND implemented!

Submitted

Ooh super interesting! I really like the concept and the way that it incorporates the theme. I was able to beat it, but it feel really tricky haha.  I think a better sense of what we're trying to take a picture of, plus some inertia with the sliders would really help this feel a little more polished. Really liked it tho! great submission :)

This is an amazing take on the jam theme. Very cute and fun game too! Good difficulty.

Submitted

Nice game ! The cameraman is as skillful as me !

Submitted

Such a creative game idea

Submitted

I love your details in each stage, how the characters in the stage behave.

Nice game!

Nice little game. I did feel that I couldn't fight too much against some of the stuff without some extra mouse help.

Very engaging and fun! I found the random werewolf pretty funny.

Submitted

Really clever idea.

Submitted

Very creative idea! I ran into a glitch where the zoom would be rapidly switching between green and red, but I fixed it by constantly holding S. If anything, it even made it a bit more fun, as I had to make sure to release S right before I pressed space. Extremely fun to play!

Submitted

A unique idea.

Fun to play!

Even the difficulty is there :)

I really like the concept of this game! And it makes me very sad to not be able to play it... For some reason, moving the mouse didn't work at all for me. Not sure if it's a Linux issue or Waterfox issue, I couldn't play it properly :') But I really like the idea of having to control multiple factors to get a good take! Really cool idea! Keep up the good work!

Submitted

Very cool concept!

Submitted

Very unique, never seen such a game before! It's quite a hassle to keep everything under control, but it's very fun! Well done!
