CUTE ANIME GIRL CONTROLING A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT LETSGOOOO!!

 thought the game was going to be easy at first lol, only to realize I wouldn't be able to manage everything.

The art is beautiful, I really loved it! The gameplay and the music work really well together and make for a great combination.

Hey this was awesome. All the art and sound effects were really impressive. That stress level...ramps up QUICKLY. I thought I was better at multitasking...

You guys did a wonderful job.

iltsm this is so good and stressful holy. I love the art style! Let's trade ratings.

Submitted(+1)

I loved ending B. Great buildup and comedic timing. I need to go unstress myself now.

Submitted(+1)

This was really fun! Reminds me a lot of WarioWare and similar :) It would be nice to get to the action a little quicker at the start, but once it got going it was so fun seeing all the different weird little microgames!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it! We definitely have a lot more ideas for the future! ☺️

THIS WAS SO GOOD holy moly. The panic! The silly games! I loved how everything was stacking up on each other. "Keep the light on" was so good. Flipping the light switches that would flip themselves off was incredible. The horse...flying away? Was amazing. All the tasks were simple but the layering of each task added to the panic and chaos. The sound design was impeccable. 10/10

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you loved the sound design!!! I really tried to stretch my wings for this so I'm glad to hear such good things about it!

How the #### did you do this in four days?! This was outrageously cool... I loved every minute of it.

AND WHOSE WAS THAT CAT!

Submitted(+2)

Really cool art, history and gameplay.

Sometimes i feel the input doesnt react in time, but maybe is just me. Cool game

Omg the art is soooooo GOODODDDD!! Also this was so stressful but in a good way GOOD JOB

Submitted(+3)

Very clever and fun. The art is fantastic, and the minigames are quite varied. (I love how insane some of them were; the demon core challenge made me laugh out loud.)

The music was nice, but felt a little repetitive after a certain point.

Meltdown Meltdown. Couldn't have had a better title

lovely dovely

The aesthetic, gameplay, and story were all great. A very fun kind of stressful and the kind of game I would actually play for fun. you absolutely killed it. It was also incredibly funny since I was not the best at it. 

Submitted(+4)

I really really enjoyed this!! Now mind you I am really really BAD at it, but I really really love it regardless, it's great. I'll probably end up coming back to this one to try my hand at... not blowing everything up, later. Though I say that everyone exploding is on them for trusting me not to get everything blown up, actually. Why would you make that horrible decision. 

Submitted(+3)

Great game! The stress was there. There were issues with polish like switching between tasks sometimes had a delay but that's alright for a jam game. I had a grin on my face from the character and the whole aesthetic. I will be playing again to get the other ending!

Submitted(+3)

This was so stressful and I loved it haha. Great character artwork and cute narrative. I love the tiny “ah” right before the meltdown. Great variety in the puzzles, got me laughing while panicking it was great.

one day youre a normal secretary the next youre COMMUNICATING WITH ALIENS DOING AMONG US WIRE PUZZLES AND REPEATING THE MISTAKES OF IRRADIATED SCREWDRIVER WIELDING PHYSICISTS OF THE MID 20TH CENTURY

10/10 would die to a nuclear armageddon again

Submitted(+2)

Don't skip the tutorial, the story was great and I liked the character expressiveness. Then I panicked haha

Developer(+1)

Thank you for participating in our experiment on manually inciting panic attacks :)

Submitted(+1)

Really fun, kept getting surprised at all the variations of mini games. Fun artstyle and music.

Submitted(+2)

Love the art style! Very fun, I could see this as a like a wario ware micro game kind of thing! Want to see more games for sure!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, we love WarioWare
