This is a really solidly designed game! I love how the eggs provide some safety for you to wind up again. Also premise and dialogue is hilarious. Only thing I would change is make some of the enemy hitboxes less harsh, but overall very good game.

Very goofy premise, but actually worked really well for the gameplay! Characters were also really silly, had me laughing a couple of times.

A Game Where You Press A ButtonThe gameplay is kinda challanging even tho it's too much hp, and the idea is cool! Art is nice too

El's VentureThis game was not at all what i was expecting it to be, and I'm glad it wasn't, because what I ended playing was honestly really fun!
Side note: I accidentally ended up minmaxing (cranking the timer to rank requirement) for half the game. Would not recommend unless you're looking for a neat challenge

VIRUS_DOWN!!fantastic title 11/10 no notes. Also, really cute and fun game, I found myself laughing out loud to the dialogue and I enjoyed the gameplay a lot. Very very well done! Major kudos!

Saving DaylightVery fun.
I love how you have to manually spin the timer to reload (technecally not a reload but yea).
I'll be waiting for the anime adaptation.

CLICK\\DOWNIt's a great game, well scoped and amusing. I love the quirky weird setting and story ! The gameplay of turning the timer to be able to shoot is smart and engaging. And the visuals are nice and cute. Great work !

A Lesson with Maxo SubtractoLittle sad i wasnt hit by a truck at the start but i guess a roast makes a little more sense.
Honestly maybe my favourite game of the jam so far. The balance between wanting a long timer so i could shoot but not wanting to over do it so i could get my bacon shield back was a very smart design choice. Dialog was eggcelent (I'm also here!). Very well done, great job!

Space ExpressSuch an awesome usage of the countdown theme! Tying your ammo to how long you wind the egg timer is brilliant, and the isekai presentation is very charming and perfectly egg-xecuted :).
Once I got the hang of rotating the dial, it was all gucci. I don't know if the camera zooming in during the wind-up/reload is deliberate or not, but it narrowed the FOV quite a bit during a moment when we are already at a disadvantage of the reloading.
My only actual problem with the game was that it couldn't be fullscreened. Since we have to do a lot of dragging and rotating, I kept accidentally clicking outside the game screen and selected the game iframe accidentally couple of times, I also clicked a link once and lost my progress :(. By the way, you can enable the fullscreen button directly from your Itch page settings without needing to rebuild the game.
Overall, fantastic work!

Slime Factory (GMTK 2026)It can be fullscreened now! I think! I tried to make it be fullscreened at least lol
Yeah, i went back and forth on keeping the FOV restriction on rewind. Thinking about it more, I wonder if it would have been better reversed so you zoom out on rewinding instead of zooming in. Too late now lol!\
Thanks for the feedback!
My many questions about how does one come up with this idea specifically will likely remain unanswered forever. Also the dialogue is way better than what I expected from an... egg timer?! Great work guys

Saving DaylightLove the mechanics! Could you please enable the fullscreen mode (check box in "Edit Game" on itch.io; is also allowed during the rating period)? Had the problem that mouse input was not recogniced when moving away from the kind of small game field. A online leadbord at the end would give extra motivation to replay again and again. Great game!

Hang OnIncredible game! Just incredible, the title definitely gave me anime vibes lol

Upper Crust EscapadesThe narrative consists entirely of my favorite type of humor and I love the game because of that (also maaaaybe due to how great the spritework is along with the very fun gameplay, even if the final boss did feel a bit too easy).
