I like the concept, and the visuals are really cool too. The only thing is that the alarm clock gave me a headache, but good job!

Wool Be FineNot trying to brag or anything... but I totally aced the exam on my first go -v-
And if anything that's a testament to how well this game communicates what is and isn't important, and what you're supposed to be doing. It was super tight but completely manageable. The sprites were varied with a lot of individual unique details put in. The phone was a surprisingly detailed little thing to mess around with in spite of it only taking up a couple seconds in the story.
This is a really cool, detailed game!

Mr. Boxes Magical Matrix MissionI got a B! I really enjoyed the game. My favorite part was trying to get the keys from the cat - it was hilarious and definitely the highlight for me.
Everything felt polished, and I didn't run into any issues. I liked the art style, the music, and the overall idea of playing as a kid who's almost late for an exam. It made for a fun and charming experience from start to finish.
Overall, it's a great game. Nice work!

Release DayA fun game – a simple yet familiar story revealed through a series of mini-games. The first time I went to the exam, I turned up empty-handed XD. The art is great and the music also helps to reveal a sense of urgency.
It would be more replayable if, for example, the locations of the phone or the lecture door were randomised. I also found two bugs over the course of three playthroughs (the timer didn't reset when restarting and I had to collect my backpack twice on one occasion) :p
Good shit!
