How does your game fit the theme?
Place unstable chemicals around the lab. Each one explodes after a short countdown, damaging anything caught in the blast—including you. Plan where you place them, lure the creatures in, and don't get caught in your own cleanup. A crazy fox scientist got tired of how messy their lab had become. Instead of cleaning it the normal way, they decided to dump dangerous chemicals everywhere. The scientist doesn't care what's living in the lab. Rats, frogs, guinea pigs—if it's in the way, it's getting soaked in chemicals. Now the lab is covered in toxic spills, broken experiments, and terrified little creatures running for their lives. Grab your chemicals and finish the cleanup... one spill at a time.

Really cute art and the upgrades are neat!
this is game is so much fun
looks so cute
this looks adorable
Really liked the main mechanic, reminded me a lot of bomberman games, as was very satisfying when you hit them dead on! Nice work!
Constructive feedback:
- Some visual/auditory feeback when you hit something would be nice
- The music randomly stopped at the first upgrade choice for some reason?
I really love the artwork!
Such a clever mix of mechanics! It feels like Pac-Man mixed with a horde survival game, and the loop is super addictive. The pixel art is simple, but it has so much charm. Loved playing it!
The gameplay is really fun. It's like Bomberman mixed with vampire survivor. The artwork is simple but charming.
The art is very impressive for only four days! I only made it to wave 8 before I bombed myself. If I had to give a suggestion, I would say that it would be nice if you got quicker feedback on whether you hit an enemy, like a flash or using a tween or something. Overall great work though!
the project has a lot of potential! I think if you work on and polish it after the jam it can become a real fun game!
aaaah so so cute!! as a fan of anything close to pink I'm a big fan of the color palette chosen here, the characters are so cute and it was a lot of fun to move around trying to place the bomb at the right time at the right so I do hit the enemies and not myself, only thing making me sad is that I wish the explosion was a bit clearer about where it's radius so I coould anticipate a bit more and also the music sadly stopping after I chose my first powerups. Still managed to go 10+ waves lolol B). Again very cute game!!
ommgg thanks for drawing him, he looks so cutee!! Also thanks for the feedback I'll try to get in touch with the rest of the team so we can later fix those issues and add more polish in a future version ^^
I wasn't sure exactly how the game related to the theme, but it had a cute artstyle and functioned well
Good art! And I always like choosing 1 of 3 upgrades. Had the same issue with the music cutting out after the first round.
There's room for improvement on the game feel and visual feedback overall. The art style is very cute. Great work!!
Love the artstyle, although the music cut out for me after the first wave...
