Loved the artwork and the way everything was presented. My printer on day 1 didn't work so the instructions were a little foggy but I got the hang of it.

Oh, I dig this. Love it love it. It feels reminiscent of one of my favorite games, Papers, Please, in the way the rules are gradually layered on top of each other — hell, even the printing of the new rules feels Papers-esque. Even the artstyle feels similar! I love games like these. It's surprisingly easy for me to forget the date rule LOL. The launching sound effect is super loud though, and also when I go off the tab, the 10, 9, 8 countdown desyncs with what it says on the clock. Anyway, great game! Congrats on submitting for the jam and I wish you the best.
P.S. I recognize Software Automatic Mouth when I hear it ;)
Very fun ! Make the instructions clearer though, It took a while to properly understand.
Easily my favorite game so far I think! Im still not completely sure what the heat gauge does, but I liked it nonetheless.
Hey we did kinda the same idea but in 3D lol
Great job! For some reason the blue gauge on the second round didn’t seem to work. It wouldn’t move when I turned it on. I tried several times and it not do.
That being said, fantastic job on the art and gameplay. I would love to see a full version of this!
Really like the art style, and a fun and interesting gameplay loop too. Great job!
Great job, specially i like sfx, art and such more! But i can't actually play cus i don't get the point lol. But anyways that doesn't mean the game is broken that means i can't played it. Nice work. And one more thing, would you like to try my game ? :D
I always knew I could be a rocket scientist. The perspective from the control room into the missile room is really cool. Aided a lot by the vfx and sfx too. I would maybe clear the messages from the previous days but otherwise a really interesting game that executed well on a classic interpretation of Count Down.
Nice game! Loved the suspense of the timer and the sound effects for each switch.
Such a fun game !!! It's crazy how fast things get frantic and out of hand. Really wonderful project!
This was such a cool game, I love the tactility of all of the switches and how powerful it felt to actually launch the rocket, really great work!
