The game has potential, I really like the artstyle and the key animation.. However i wish if it was longer

Thank you very much for playing! I guess all things considered I can't ask for better review :) I mean if you would like more of what I have I did something right. I'm planning to add more stuff post jam. Hope you will stop by to check it out when it's uploaded.

Very fun game. Just wish it was a little longer, but the art was great and the whole thing felt very clean and polished. Very great game!!!

it's very short, but what's here is well polished and very snazzy. I like the simple narrative without words, the music fits well, the art style is cool and cohesive. I did notice that you don't actually need to pick up the sponge to clean the plates, you can just click on them to clean them, but maybe that's an intentional speedrunning technique ;) Congrats on the submission, this is a very strong start

Oooh! Thank you so much for kind words. I'm really glad that you enjoyed the game, albeit so short ) I really went all in on few rounds I managed to assemble in given time, good to know that it wasn't for nothing. During post launch tests, some of the players did figured no sponge trick as well ) It was "totally intentional" :) But in all honesty I did have ideas for such shortcuts and it's a good indication that they are working. Your comment inspires me to  continue working on that one. Thank you very much for playing! 

P. S. I also checked out you game Dealing with Death and I really dig the style too :)

Definitely keep at it, you have a cool style and you managed to make something very polished. Also, thanks for checking out our game! Me and my partner did all the art together while our friend did all the coding, I'll pass on your compliments :)

time is up after the bedsheets task?

Developer

It does. Unfortunately that all I managed to complete in given time. Hopefully that brief experience was fun for you :) Maybe I will add more stuff after the votes, I have some ideas :)
