Congrats! I knew this was something special!
Ahaha thank you so much! We had the biggest jump scare this morning seeing the video for the first time - absolutely wild!
Very nice art, such a brain twister!
Thank you for trying it out!
Love the party game vibes! Feels like a brilliant digital version of an offline game. I like your artstyle and the stylized logo showed in the beginning.
Thanks for the kind feedback, appreciate it a lot :)
A fun puzzle game with a great visual style. Really like the art & the whole tv aesthetic the game has. I can see the Warioware inspiration and it's cool to see in a gamejam game.
Oh man, I absolutely adored the art style! Everything was so cute and friendly!
Thanks for playing and for the kind words, that means a lot :)

Thank you!!
Love the art style !!!
Thank youuu! Loved your game too - cool that we did really different takes on a similar concept
That was so good ! We indeed had quite a similar idea ahah, love the way you implemented it, a really good use of the sueprcute art in your game !! (and you actually managed to implement fun rules ahah)
Really impressed, game is really polished with lots of juice, the vibe is really endearing. One of the best submissions all around!
That really means a lot, thank you! 🥹🥹
Wow that was crazy polished, really amazing job! I love the art-style in particular.
It was a little difficult to figure out what to type when I wanted to type fizz or buzz, given that you need to type the numbers. Maybe one improvement could be more of multiple choice?
Thank you for the feedback, appreciate you taking the time to share! We'll take a look at trying to make it clearer in the tutorial after the jam, thanks for the suggestion :)
great game! i thought this already a steam game
Thanks for taking the time to play, glad you enjoyed it!
Really polished game, even down to the credits page. The wobbly effect adds charm to the game. Love the framing device of the game being something like a news/gameshow (missed opportunity to call the Score something like Ratings/Viewers). The way the rule selection visual is presented makes me think it is clickable even though it’s not.
Really appreciate the kind words! We'll take a look at the tutorial after the jam and look at actually making it clickable, I can see why it would be confusing that it's not haha. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback :)
Fun and polished game! Love the artwork! This looks like a very good multiplayer game with your friends!
Thank you so much! We had big plans for leaderboards and a mode where players can take turns competitively, but we just couldn't get it included in the time limit. Definitely something we're interested in adding, though! Thanks so much for playing, and for your feedback!
Nowhere near enough honeycombs mate.
You're right, there are NO honeycombs in the game.
...Yet.
This is a LOT of incredible presentation in such a short period of time. The art is extremely impressive and adorable, it looks very polished. Reminds me a lot of the sections you'd find in a Rhythm Heaven or Warioware title. It's design is deceptively difficult too! I found myself constantly forgetting what was the previous number and staring blankly as the timer ran down. Really neat good core loop that gives both the highs and lows of a good gameplay loop in a quick neat package. Also all the dogs are great.
Reminding you of Warioware and Rhythm Heaven is the ULTIMATE compliment to us, so that means a lot thank you! Appreciate all the kind words :)
This is a fun, clever and polished game-- the jitter on all the artwork is a really satisfying cherry on top! Was easy to pick up the rules as I went. I can imagine this being very fun as a multiplayer game!
Thank you, that means a lot! The jitter was one of the first artistic choices we made and it just felt right from the start haha. We'd really love to find a way to make it multiplayer after the jam, hoping we can make it happen :)
Dude this is amazing. The gameplay hits that sweet spot of being easy to learn, hard to master. The fact that you added dogs even at the beginning that throw you off by not saying the number, and eventually everyone else also starts saying something other than the actual number, so you have to keep track of it yourself, is really genius. Presentation, both in terms of art and sound, was really fantastic. A++!
Thank you so much, we really appreciate the kind words!
We went back and forth on whether or not the dogs audibly saying woof every time was too misleading for new players, so I'm glad to hear what you thought of that specifically! Thanks for taking the time to play, and for your kind feedback!
Of course!
The concept is genius omg I love this game! the rythm, the tv game vibe, the non repetition with the new rules, the coolness of the characters.. that is a really good game you have proposed here
Wow, thank you so much for your kind words, and for taking the time to play our game! Really appreciate it! We're strongly considering continuing development, so I deliver something up to your expectations in the future!
This was super fun and soooo polished!! I really loved the art, they are all so cute. I'd like to imagine these people are all just standing in a circle while the camera is rotating around them lol. I also kept forgetting I was a dog, it's so easy so forget...
Thank you so much!
That's so interesting, you hit the nail on the head - we'd planned on having the players in a circle and whipping the camera around, but realised it wouldn't fundamentally look much different from what we have now if we couldn't find time to draw a panoramic background to sell it, so we ended up just having them in a line.
Thanks so much for taking the time to play our game!
came from vgdev - really well executed idea! i love the UI and everything is super cute. the music is banger and blessed my ears. gj :)
Thank you for playing and for the nice feedback, means a lot
Where do you even come up with such an idea?? Its so unique and out there, I love it. Everything is polished as heck and the visuals and audio design are bang on. Its a full score across the board from me. Wonderful job.
Reading this made us so happy! Thank you for being so kind about the game, really appreciate it :)
