This is so well made!

The art is perfect, really nailed the cardboard cutout look, I would say the audio was good but there was too much booing, I assume this was a bug because I played perfectly... yes, definitely bug.

The progression felt a little shortened, but that probably makes sense for a jam so you can play with all the toys quickly.

Charming, well executed entry, great job!

I love the cardboard cutout art and voiceover/music! Very whimsical toy-like vibe.

Overall the technical side seemed very good as well, the lighting was very professional and clean (which makes sense given that's your whole job in the game!!). I did find it a bit confusing at first when one of my lights was completely off, I didn't fully understand what was being explained in the tutorial until I re-listened haha. Maybe a small diagetic tooltip somewhere on the console could help? Like a little switch that says dimmer with the left and right mouse? I also think scrollwheel would feel more intuitive for the dimmer.

But regardless, very clean and clever game. Congrats on your first 3d game!

great game, although it feels like there's too little downside to just keeping random parts of the map lit up.

The artwork is great and the voiceover is amazing. The game looks very polished!

A more "explain it to me like I'm a child" style of tutorial would be helpful. I didn't really understand what changing the energy level actually did. I was only focused on making the spotlight as bright as possible to light up the actors… 

and then suddenly there were two actors at the same time :O

Overall, it's a great Game Jam entry. Very well done!

Game look nice, but unfortunately game didnt work for me, i couldnt turn the light on 

Very charming and unique concept for a game. The ringmaster really put on a show and has an amazing voice!

Very cool entry! The game looks amazing and the gameplay is solid :)

A lot of content for so little time!

My only critique is that the fact that i had to keep presing a number for moving the corresponding light was not clear at all in the game, almoast skipped it because of it!

But, i am glad i did not :)

Unfortunately the game did not work for me. Like others the consol did not light up, and whatever I tried I could not get any lights to work. Only move a red one, not get things to light up. I'm frustrated that many others don't seem to have that issue, because I would love to play the game they are describing.

cool game

Daaaamn this is fun and polished!

Very inventive concept, loved the visuals and gameplay.

Weel done!!

the man talked to me and (i think) explained what to do in the game, but there was no dialogue text so it was hard to remember what to do, i really didn't know what to do in the game. also, my buttons were all blacked out so i thought i couldnt press them, so i just waited for a long time for something to happen and nothing happened until i just clicked every where and i happened to press the button.

the game honestly looks really good and fun and i love the visuals, but I think the tutorial needs more polishing or just need to add dialogue text.

This was a very fun game. You honestly have the best tutorial of any game I’ve played this Game Jam. I think it was very smart to get a voice actor for the tutorial. An issue I have with many tutorials (including my own) is that they are rather bland and I stop paying attention. But your tutorial gripped me and I was able to learn the game very easily.

The rest of the game was awesome! It was especially fun once I got multiple lights, it started getting a bit chaotic in a good way. Theres a lot of potential here, I’d love to see a bigger game where you manage more aspects of the stage, not just the lighting.

I did run into one bug that I couldn’t reproduce: The first time I booted the game, the tutorial froze. The voice stopped talking and I couldn’t do anything aside from moving the hand. I am not sure what happened there but refreshing fixed it.

Very good job!

Loved the vibe of this one — incredible work for your first 3D game in a short timeframe! The audience failed to appreciate my genius operation

I got a total of $927, I did buy every single upgrade. It's pretty overwhelming if you try to make use of all the different lights, sound effects and stuff, but it's also a lot of fun to try. For some reason the lights don't seem to work in firefox web builds, on chrome it works fine. Art stile and audio were amazing. Great game!

this is such a happy charming game, i love the incorporation of multiple spotlights and the final act, standing ovation i love that little mustached man

This was a perfect 5* for me across the board. I played this longer than any game submission so far. The character designs are so amazing, the gameplay is fun. I kept playing trying to figure out how the soundboard worked. But despite me not quite getting it at first, I was really motivated to learn because the whole experience was just enjoyable, and really fun to play.

It’s soo soso good. One of the best games I’ve played so far!

Really polished game, very chaotic and fun as well. The music and design was amazing, and I absolutley loved the voice acting. The whole presentation was amazing!

Really fun and original! The presentation is fantastic—the art, voice acting, and audio all feel super polished. The controls took a little while to click, but once they did, juggling everything became a really satisfying challenge. Great job!

I was really getting into it, my favorite art design and presentation so far and was racking up money finally, cool idea. Only thing I am stuck buying four lights but couldn't figure out how to turn them all on? anyway still a terrific game and would play again.
