This is incredibly polished for the time you guys had!!! Congrats! The color scheme is absolutely yum and Mr. Vampire is a wonderful character design. I loved all the new mechanics you threw at me. The levels are designed in such a great way that it didn’t feel like a tutorial but rather a space for me to explore the mechanic myself without feeling like my hand had to be held. That’s incredible game design. This is a really fun fresh puzzle game and I would love to see more done with it!

What a great game!! The presentation is gorgeous and controls instantly graspable. And the soundtrack is 🔥🔥.
If I had to critique something I'd say the introduction of mechanics could be slowed down a bit. The early levels introduce mechanics pretty quickly (e.g. spikes that can by bypassed in certain circumstances, armored NPCs, NPCs that threaten certain tile(s), ...) and I felt myself wanting to play with them for longer before moving onto learning a new thing.
That's all I have in the way of constructive criticism though. This game is PHENOMENAL -- huge congratulations making it in such little time!

This is best “count down” game that actually fits the time counting down theme as well as the vampire theme.
Interesting levels, great art, loved all the references to vampire lore! Jam winner for sure.

Really good game! Crazy levels of polish for a game jam and the aesthetic and incorporation of the theme was great! It shouldn't be possible to make something this good this quickly!

You guys missed the memo that this is a game jam or something? This is a complete game ready to be released.. I'm utterly blown away 🤯

The game is INSANE.
I was genuinely blown away by the level design. Every new mechanic felt fresh, and the way the game teaches you without ever interrupting the gameplay with tutorials is simply brilliant.
AND btw : When I was playing, I found out the credit and what?! Made by the creator of Hamstemind! and suddenly it all made sense 🤣
HAMSTERMIND is honestly one of the best puzzle games I've ever played, and I really hope we'll get a sequel one day. But for now, I just want to play more of The count Is down for blood. Any plans to keep working on it, LeFou?
Thank you so much, that really means a lot! ❤️
As for HAMSTERMIND 2... you'll have to be a little more patient. 😄
Regarding The Count Is Down for Blood, we all had a blast making it, and we definitely think it has the potential to become a full game. That said, before anything else, the team and I need to sit down and sort out all the boring—but necessary—stuff (roles, revenue share, long-term commitment, etc.).
So we'll see! I'd love to keep working on it, but first we need to make sure everyone's on the same page.

Wow I'm very impressed by the level of polish and content that was put into it in only 96 hours. The pixel art is gorgeous, with a lot of unique animations, the sound design is on point and the level design is very smart, with some levels being very purposefully tricky while staying approachable in the end.
Like others said, I could very well imagine something like that on Steam as is, that's how polished it feels.
Congrats to the whole team, probably my favorite from the jam so far!

This game plays with a lot of the same ideas as ours but realized with totally different mechanics. Staggeringly polished look and gamefeel for a jam game to where I have very little criticism I could give; even the way you’ve tutorialized it feels incredibly dialed in. I didn’t want to stop playing. Expand and ship this, it’s so good. Well done.
