How does your game fit the theme?
When using a camera, I often use the countdown feature, and this is where my inspiration comes from.

This is a really creative idea haha, I like the concept of appeasing a demon camera. I did feel like getting the guy into some of the positions was a little difficult but it was also really funny to see him all mangled trying to get him to fit. Great job!

I'm really glad you found it fun! Thanks so much for playing!

Although I don't know how to let that little guy to make correct poses, it's really funny!

Developer

I'm really glad you found it funny! Thanks a lot for giving it a try!

I really like the idea, but I think that the physics made it really challenging to pull off. Also as someone who has a hard time with flashing images, the flash effect was very hard on my eyes. It would be nice to have the option to turn that off. Overall, good little jam game!

Developer(+1)

You're absolutely right—I hadn't considered that. Thanks for pointing it out! I'll see if I can add an option to turn the flash effect off in a future update.

Honestly found it very challenging haha because I didn't know what was a translation and what would rotate other parts of the body. I definitely shared your feelings about photos growing up, too. Overall great game, and I loved the visual effects that sold the feeling. Great game!

Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words xD

Wow this is so creative! Really interesting having to balance attacking the boss with giving yourself enough time to pose properly.

That flash effect is really awesome, great work!

Developer

Thank you so much for your kind words! Your encouragement makes me really happy!

Haha that was so creative! I could not strike any pose but it was a lot of fun to try xD Camera anxiety is real!

Developer

Yes, it’s so real xD And thank you for appreciating my creativity!

20 seconds was super hard for me. Thanks to developer mode, I was able to raise it to 30-40 and enjoy the game.
Thank you for adding it :)
Very cool game ;)

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for your kind words :)

I really liked this one! It took me a while to actually undestand whats happening, but when i got it, I got stuck playing it for more than I care to admit

Developer

I'm really happy you enjoyed it!

This is one of the more unique ones I have come across this jam. Love the creepy camera boss. The difficulty level is beyond me, but I still had fun for as long as I survived!

Developer

Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. And yeah, the difficulty is totally my fault. I realised too late that I didn't have enough time to properly balance the game before the submission deadline, so it ended up in this awkward state.

That's a great idea with a cool concept.
controls are quiet hard, but after a while i was able to get some good photo scores.
Still no way near beating the camera demon :)

Developer

I'm really glad you liked the idea! I'm sorry about the balancing. I submitted the game right at the last minute and didn't have time to adjust the numbers properly. I'll definitely learn from this and do better next time.

The concept is original, but I find it insanely hard to put your character in the required position lol, I could not do it once

Otherwise the visuals are nicely done :)

Developer

Thank you so much for the kind words and the honest feedback! I’m really glad you liked the concept and the visuals. You’re right about the difficulty—I should have adjusted the timing and other values better. I didn’t manage my time well, and by the time I submitted the game, it was already too late to make those changes. I’m really sorry about that, and I’ll definitely improve it next time!
