It's a simple game with a clean, polished design. The mechanics work well. Perhaps some of the small balls could be near the dart at the beginning.

Explode-O-SealNice game, for some reason I am better at popping the purple ones than the blue.

Numbered DaysA simple game, which i don’t know is THE MOST DIFFICULT GAME FOR ME apparntly (probably because of jam enthusaism). And that’s why I LIKED IT. A simple game that challenges your reflexes. Great Job

Duat's CrawlLoved this! Reminded me of the dart game in Hollow Knight: Silk Song (where I lost all my money due to bad timing). I think that with more variations, mayble bubbles swinging horizontally and multiple at your screen at the same time this could easily be an interesting game, especially for mobile!

Witch v NecromancerReally interesting mechanics, and the online leaderboard gives a genuine reason to push for a high score (even if the top ranks are way too high for my mediocre skills)!
A small downside: the hitboxes can be a bit frustrating at times, as arrows sometimes go right through a balloon without registering.
A few ideas to polish it even further:
- Rebalance the large balloons, as they don't feel super rewarding given how few points they grant.
- Allow firing multiple arrows at once to guarantee a hit.
- Add a mechanic where you lose arrows if a balloon manages to reach the ceiling.
Overall, really cool project

Keep up the good work!

The Motion of LifeSimple but sweet, I liked the visual style you guys went for! Seeing the leaderboards shocked me cuz I only got 16 lol.

01: Oh-OneSimple but surprisingly well done for it. Somehow the art worked and didn't feel empty or underdone. I feel like the blue bubbles hit boxes could be a little wider but it worked after a few misses to see where I needed to it. A tip for next game, let your audio settings play the music and clicks when you're on them so people can fine tune it (not that I'm complaining, it wasn't loud at all, just a tip I learned elsewhere).

Tick Tock TacticianStrangely addictive and really fun to play! It was euphoric every time I hit a +100 bubble. I was curious if you considered allowing the player to "hold" the arrow which, upon release, makes it move faster which could add more complexity. The fact that you can only do one input/press it once really asks the player to be precise and get it right the first time and I appreciate the delay in regeneration to prevent the player from spamming the throw dart button. Overall, great job :)

Unintentionally Funny OllieThank you for the detailed feedback! We actually did consider that possibility, but decided against it because it would force the player to sit with the key constantly held down just to charge up the most powerful shot. We felt like that would get annoying pretty quickly and ruin the game's feel. Overall, we figured there would be a lot of games with timers at the jam, so we set out to make something simple where the player can relax and the game doesn't rush them, while still rewarding risk-taking :)
Simple premise but well executed and fun to tryhard. Very nice music aswell

Money TimeYo, i made it on the Leaderboard :). Very fun game, the UI is very clean and of course having a leader board is a great idea for a jam game.

Do Something Before The Bus ExplodesAny game with a leaderboard ill try to master. Really fun skill based game! One suggestion is hitting multiple blue balloons in a row should have some sort of bonus, otherwise it doesn't feel worth it to even go for blue ones

1 minute towerFun game! I loved the execution of the theme with the ammo counter
