The Gambler's ClockYou are so smart and I am so dum. I failed the snooze minigame I think a million times before I realized you are supposed to NOT. In my defense what friend group is waking up at 5:30am to see a movie, your friends are CRAZY.
Adorable narrative warioware-esque and it was so smart to let me practice the minigames so you can practice minigames if you can't handle the time pressure originally OR IF YOU BRAIN HAS TRAINED YOU TO PRESS BUTTONS AND YOU CAN'T HELP YOURSELF.
Anyways great job, this was one of my fave games from the jam!

1010Very good!! It took me a couple of tries to realise that doing the snooze is what was causing me to fail hahaha. Also exiting the bus is so stressful 😬😬

Kiss ANYTHINGA good, simple game, even though I didn't manage to beat it—not even on my second try.

Save the bees!The game was very cool, short but it was encouraging to keep playing until finally getting in this photo (i needed to be in it). I'd say that the mini game could be a bit more balanced, like some give you really long timers that you really don't need, but i know that it can be hard to achieve in the context of a jam. Anyways the game visuals was really cute, i love the hand drawn aesthetic !
Overall good job on this entry, i had fun, keep up the good work !

Out Of MemoryThank you! Our goal was really to try and explore a “fail” state that still felt light and silly to encourage someone to try again. Noted on some of the timers! We’ll definitely look into that if we have time to update this after the jam.
Happy to hear you liked the visuals! We went with a sketchbook/journal look since it fit the theme, and it worked out time-wise since it’s a simpler render.
Thanks for playing!
Oh this was a cute little game to play, it was short but fun. I couldn't make it to the photo booth the first time but managed to do so the second time! I really liked the visuals and music, it was so relaxing.

Zero percentA very cute slice of life game! I struggled a bit with trying to get off the bus, I'm playing with a trackpad and I could never fully finish the game because I wasn't fast enough, even with practice in the mini game area
Other than that I really enjoyed the narrative! Please tell me that the character is meant to be getting up at 5:30pm and not am lol!
Well done on submitting :)

Dan and the DateMade it to see my face in the picture at last! Loved that the game doesn't punish you for failing and the story continues. The bus experience is extremely true to life :D :D :D Well done!

Downshifting DieCongrats on making the group photo! Yes, we wanted to put a spin on the “fail” state where, it’s not really that much of a big deal that you missed that specific moment, just that it affects the “checkpoint.” Sometimes life just happens!
Yes, and the bus crowd will always be there when you’re in a rush. 😅
Thanks for playing!
Such a cozy game! I really loved it
It felt like an interactive slice of life

Squiggle Demon's Counting TowerNgl I was stressing over the smallest things by the end 😭 Really fun concept, and the mini games made the whole run fly by. Nice job!

The Last LanternThe mini games to help with narractive choices was really creative.

Five Weeks EarlierIt's a pretty nice and fast game, with addictive music. For some reason, when I got off the bus in the web version, the block sometimes stuck to my mouse, forcing me to start over. However, all the actions are timed and relevant to the theme.

Offline hacker: daily routineI like how the theme was implemented, I had to try a few times to get a good ending but its a fun little game
