This game is the most intense countdown game I've ever played in this jam. Great work! > v<
This game does really well in basically every category! Everything works together very well to emphasize the imminent countdown to your death and the rush of it all (I also like how silly things get at times, some of the tasks are quite funny). Great game :D
Amazing game! I love the art style and how the tasks get progressively more ridiculous as you go. I can't believe I died to letting go of my horses. Definitely going in my favorites folder!
amazing work! i see a big potential, in love with your artstyle and sound effects! hope to see more of your games in the future!
Really good, game crashed on my first run after the core meltdown so I don't know if thats intentional but I got ending a for the second
Huh, do you have more details on that crash? When did it happen? What was happening? Did it crash on a specific line of dialogue? WDYM by crash?
Don't really have much, I completed 90 tasks and it got to the ending cutscene. It said the core was melting or whatever it says right before the countdown and the page deleted itself. I wasn't near the keyboard so I assumed it was part of the game or a bug with itch io or firefox
That was very good. Made 3 attempts, failed inches away on the third. May give it another spin later. It was fun. Also, something made me think of Lobotomy Corp, but can't pinpoint what exactly. Both sound and art are awesome. Amazing job!
kinda stressing game :D with that sounds :D
AMAZING!!!
Crazy to me that this is only you guys' first project as a team (if I understood correctly). The polish is crazy, the sounds are immaculately chosen, the story funny, theme incorporation is great, I can go on and on...
Some minigames mayyyyyybe could have been a bit clearer, but this is me being more than nitpicky about it.
Great submission you got there, and I wish I could emphasize more how much I mean that.
(Some of us) have done game projects in the past as part of school curriculum but never anything this polished or as a group since we're so spread out.
Also which minigames in particular? Always good feedback to have
wonderfully chaotic with a nice variety of minigames! i loved how the musical the alarms get, that’s such a nice touch.
I'm so overstimulated rn. Good stuff
Very cool!
Very nice in every way! Unfortunately I decided not to try to complete it just in the interest of time, but I really liked the art and story; it’s very polished for a jam game. The gameplay is simple, but that’s probably a good thing given the concept. Anyway, great job!
wonderfully stressful, cute game!
I loved this so much! The artwork and sound work so well together, and I love the character of it all. The minigames were really fun to balance, and I think it all comes together well. The humor is really good, and I especially enjoyed the player crashing out at their boss at the end. Great game!
THIS WAS SO STRESSFUL. HOMER MAKES THIS LOOK SO MUCH EASIER IN THE CARTOON. I failed to prevent the meltdown. I will not fail again....
I had a lot of fun with this. Well done. It was very intense. The audio was very well done in this aspect. I liked the visuals. The games were very straight forward in how to play them. I just... that arrow game is not my friend.
oh my god i felt like i was gonna DIE while playing this!! minigames were short but super fun, and everything has a lovely art style! also... the boss is so fine hello.... ( ´ ▿ ` )
Very cute, very fun game! The minigames are so funny, and you really got a big variety in here despite the time crunch!
AHah was really funny especially uma musume reference :D
because i was laughing and couldn't keep doing mini games xd
Also it's one of my favorite art styles with usage of rough line art without anti-aliasing 💖
ALSO!
Want to mention this setting reminds me lobcorp (even if it's nuc station i know)
Great game, was pretty funny to play it!
One of our artists emi can't reply on itch so here's her response:
thank you so much for enjoying our game!!! i'm so happy with the comparison to lobcorp, it's one of my favourite games... and thank you for the lovely comment on the artstyle!!! i'm so glad you had a good time :D
P.S, your game is absolutely awesome, the style is gorgeous!!!
Thank you for repost :D
Means I saw it in right angle because love PM's universe too!
I really loved this game, the minigames were fun and the dialouge was funny, I read through the entire document on the start menu and Derek should really stop sneaking chips into the powerplant. I also really like how the music gets faster and faster.
