How does your game fit the theme?
This game's narrative prompts the player with pomodoro style timers to spend time away from the game, but the game also has a real time clock that counts down a global deadline for the player to solve the main puzzle and beat the game.

Amazing. From the art to the narrative. This is what a game should always feel like
Saw this on instagram and the art style immediately drew me in. The atmosphere is simultaneously cozy yet somewhat dark. The audio is perfect for this type of experience. I'm very impressed that this was done solo.
I'll have to come back later to see the proper ending.
The presentation on this game is off the charts. The art style and the way your guy talks to other guys and the camera focuses like in 3D mario games is super polished. I'm blown away that this is a solo dev.
Incredible presentation, love the charm packed into every interaction. Really impressed by all the particle effects and little animations. The music and sound design are great to. This game has a such a strong presentation and is such a cool take on the theme. Genuinelyimpressed you were able to craft this in four days.
I did complete all the tasks but I'm stumped on what to do next. I get the keyboard thing and how to change color but no clue on where to go from there. Feels like I'm supposed to go into the blackhole but that doesn't seem possible
the planet master will tell you once you've figured out how to get to the black hole, then you'll just need to throw yourself really really hard by dragging the character with the mouse and letting go! sorry for not introducing that mechanic in a clearer way!
OMG, the creativity of this idea is off the charts. This is such a cool game jam entry, I absolutely love the concept. And the way the dialogues and graphics are made — just wow. Unfortunately, the game lags really badly in my browser, and things often fail to start. But I can see how awesome the execution is, and the concept itself fascinates me. Definitely a 5-star entry (though this game deserves a full 9 c; )
thank you! i'll definitely have a downloadable option next time, but i think the main culprit is i didn't cap the fps and i was only ever playing on a 60hz monitor so if you are playing with a refresh rate higher than that, you could definitely run into some issues!
I'm soooo obsessed with the character designs and animations, they're all so creative and cute!!!!! I gotta give you a follow on bluesky :>
Love this gaame! wel doneeeee
You really thought outside of the box on this one. I didn't quite figure out what do in the end, I'll come back tomorrow and try again!
thanks for taking some time on it! i'll be sharing some art with some hints tomorrow!
This game fills me
Really like how the theme was executed with this one, the meta take for countdown is awesome. Someone else said it and I hard agree, the artstyle gives me Super Mario Galaxy vibes.
This game is so good it looks more like a full released game than a jam game the graphic and the tiny plates that are very intractable this game is very good ,good job
I haven’t completed the game in any way yet, but I just wanted to say that I absolutely love the concept. It has a mellow melancholy to it. The art reminded me of a mix of Outer Wilds and Super Mario Galaxy. You could release it as it is, and people would buy it. It’s also probably one of the few games I could see myself coming back to! Great work!
I really like this game, there's something about a cute little blob telling me to drink water that speaks to me.
I absolutely love the art style, it's gorgeous. The game feels incredibly polished, and the core concept is really strong, though it's a very difficult idea to fully execute in a game jam. Great job!
I took a break from playing games. That's nice! It doesn't help that this game has so much darn charm! I wanted to walk around and just be there all the time. Feels like waisted potential for another game, but then again isn't everything?
Well done and thank you!
LOVE THIS! Such a wonderfully realized world.
Very creative take on the theme, it was lovely implemented. I do not have the time to go through the whole of it unfortunately :(
Really really cute characters. We could all use a lil' break at the end of the world.
The character design is awesome and the premise is definitely unique. The animations are sooooo goood and the atmosphere just makes me want to hang out in the world on a second monitor. I hope some version of this game survives after the deadline!
Really cute game! I loved the idea of doing things in real life. Such a wholesome experience! The relaxing music makes the game even better. Really loved it!
