I thought the garlic would be buns, needed a sec to understand hahaha but fun game!

Developer

Lol- I thought that when I first made the game too but then I was like ehh whatever and moved on lol

Submitted

Simple little game that executes its central mechanic really well. Everyone's already talked about the move counter thing but I'd love a quick restart on the results screen as well so you can immediately try to get a higher score without needing to reset the page. Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the amazing feedback, now thinking about it, I could've easily implemented that lol

Submitted

For a simple game I like it's take on the theme! Handful of puzzles felt quite the same but given more time and more puzzle mechanics this can end up being really fun!

Developer

Thanks for the great feedback!

Submitted

Very fun take on the theme, and executed surprisingly well for such a simple concept. The controls are smooth and generally enjoyable, and the puzzles, while not hard, have a decent progression. Just a few extra mechanics would be needed for a full game, and the emphasis on steps taken could be highlighted more throughout. Overall, I'd say this game has decent future potential but also works as a standalone fun experience, albeit a short/simple one.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! And yeah, the most (and I think almost only) requested feature is a step counter lol

Submitted

I had a great time with this one! i can definitely see how it can be developed with more kinds of obstacles in the future.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

nice fast paced gameplay, really enjoyed figuring things out on my own!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I liked the game! Got rank B. I liked your tutorial through gameplay about how you can run down the counter by running into the wall

Simple and fun - Rank A

Developer

Glad you liked it, thanks!

Submitted

I liked the vibe, the style and music was nice, but I didn't like the gameplay. I think the mechanic might've been to simple to work as a game. I got Rank A.

Developer

Ok

Submitted

Rank D - at least it wasn't F. Good music, I had fun, though I wasn't aware in my first play that the goal was to minimize steps.

Developer

I says it in the description to be efficient with your steps lol

Submitted

Rank B, winner. Surely there's nothing better than B.

Developer

Lol

Submitted

RANK D LESGOO!

I like the music and the artwork is peak!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words!

Submitted

I love the music! the only improvement I would suggest is a step counter and a step goal for each rank. Great job!

Developer

Thanks

Submitted

The description was pretty epic, and what party has that much garlic at it! especially if you're the vampire running it.

Developer

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it

Submitted

It's a cute little game that does a good job of showing the rules of how the garlic on a timer/move timer without telling you

I think the only thing I'd say I wasn't the biggest fan of was having to walk into walls for the garlic to count down as well as they only count down when moving

Developer

Ok, good to know. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

Fun game! I really wish it had more levels, but good nonetheless!

Developer

Thanks

Submitted

Fun short puzzle game, I would like to see more levels with increased difficulty!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Loved the puzzle for this. Wish there was a restart button. But very fun

Developer(+1)

Yeah, sorry. I should've added one, my bad. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Rank S! A neat small puzzle game I liked it. Maybe not being able to go back could make the game a bit better but it is still a fun experience

Developer

Okay thanks for the feedback
