this game is awesome, but it's annoying to have to reequip things every round, maybe have what you already had equipped when the menu opens, still giving a chance to change if you want

Submitted

Wow such a cool original idea! You should try to develop this further after the event, when you have more time :D

Fun game but its missing some things but I dont expect things like detailed progression in a jam game. Good job had fun messing around with a bunch of mitts. (Also I love the crowd animation)

Submitted

Great game! I could see this working great as a full multiplayer release. 

Submitted

Great implementation! This is Hot Potato League!!!

Submitted

Very clever. The crowd graphics are so good lol. This would go hard in PVP

Submitted

Fun gameplay, art and menus added a lot. good audio too. High waulity

super cute and fun and wacky!

Submitted

This was so fun ! I loved the amount of mechanics there was for each hand

Submitted

Very very clever. I like how you made the audience efficient and just viable, and focused on what really mattered: the gameplay loop. Cheers to a great game!

Submitted

Literally a 10/10 game. Deducted just one point for the audio, but only because of the asset usage.

Submitted

i enjoyed the heck out of this! i liked the go for it voice and i loved the the audience in the background, and the music. i had fun catching the potato and throwing it back, even though i admittedly wasnt sure if i was supposed to be catching it with my mitten or my oven mitt! incredible game, great job!

Submitted

Simple but fun! Passing the Hot Potato back and forth while watching the countdown is surprisingly exciting. I also liked the different gloves and their unique abilities. I'd love to play this with friends. Nice job!

Submitted

Really fun game its simple but one of the top 3 games i played in this jam :)

Submitted

really fun and i loved the victory sound.

Submitted

Very fun challenge. The combination of the timer countdown and also the health of each hand is an engaging little puzzle to figure out on the fly. The different gloves are great too. You have to combine them carefully to have an effective build. Great job! 

Submitted

Hey, this is an excellent game. You should put this on VR. Some extra mechanics, some tweaking, and you can get a hit! For real!

Submitted

Perfect menu and game UI that shows everything needed to the player. Loved the grunt birthday party sound effect too lol

Submitted

Very cool ! This fits the theme nicely and I really like the gloves choices !! :)

Submitted

Yoooo, i liked style, and gameplay, background people on tribunes also has special vibe :D I think if it will be some game for me and my friends to play, like 1v1 or 2v2 - it will be awesome. I will wait ur game on roblox or steam for it. Good luck with the project.
