I love the silliness of this game! It jumps you into action quite abruptly which caught me off guard, but still fun!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for your comment!

using your actual washing machine for the background audio is really funny and fits the vibe perfectly. 5/5 starts for audio. otherwise pretty fun little game!

Developer

Haha thank you so much!

Something is strangely relaxing about the washing machine's audio in the background, while fighting what feels to be an impossible level ( altho it can be my lack of skills xD). really good game! well done!

Great job! "Thanks you ruined my shirt!"

Developer

Thank you! (I need a new shirt)

I love how you used recorded sound while doing the laundry, you used your time wisely!

Developer

Yes! hehe

A successful first game jam game! There were some issues with poorly explained mechanics, like for example which enemies you are actually supposed to hit. I recorded my review of your game, I hope you find it useful!
Developer

Thank SOOO much for the feedback! I really appreciated it and indeed found it very useful!

Really fun that you recorded your own audio!! Shooters like this are always a delight. Would love to see upgrades/different guns or something like the enemies exploding spectacularly into bubbles or something when they die!!

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Those are great ideas :D The enemies exploding into bubbles would be fun to make hehe

I got insta-killed in the 3th cycle, but still a cool game.

Developer

Thank you for playing!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, home recorded audio is the best in these jams. The fact that the sound was your own washing machine was hilarious to me. I was going to comment that I thought the game was too hard due to spawning directly in the middle of the stains until I realized that one of the comments said it's not the stains that hurt you, but the bullets they shoot. That makes it much more fair, but I think maybe should have been mentioned somewhere! Still, good little beginning to a survivaton, a nice spin (haha, get it? washing cycle? spin? I'll show myself out now) on the theme. 

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! I will definitely write it somewhere after the jam :D

Fun and unique game! I like your improvised sound design :)


If you want, please check out my submission in your free time :)

Thank you so much!

I definitely had a skill issue, but running around the screen and shooting the stains was fun for a while. Great job on the assets

Thank you for playing!

The washing-machine arena and frantic stain cleanup make a fun, quirky countdown challenge!

Developer

Thank you! :D

It was fun to play, but I wasn't able to pass level 3 at all due to my own skill issue. Giving some power ups that you can pick up might help getting through each level. Cool implementation on the count down theme, and good luck on learning pixel art it already looks great!

Developer

Thank you for playing :D. I like the idea of the power-ups, thank you for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Game was hard, but I was persistent and completed level 3 after like 10 minutes. The ideas was very unique though. Great idea and game!!!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

It was an interesting view on the concept. I couldn't pass the level 3. Also loved the idea to use your own real assets to make the game's assets, such as the audio.

Developer

Thank you! Yeah level 3 is quite hard 😅

Submitted(+1)

Really cute game! Unfortunately I'm not very good and lost on level 2 :'( but a really cool interpretation of the theme! :)

Developer

Thank you :D

Submitted(+1)

Hey this was quite fun to play, maybe with some extra time you can polish the visual. Anyways, great concept, I got you, it rained all week here, we all gotta do laundry at some point

Developer

Thank you so much! I hope so, I'm learning pixel art so hopefully it will look better one day hehe

Interesting take on the concept)
