Pretty nice game, I liked the art, the game plays fun and idea is very nice. It also followed the theme very good!
Collections of minigames in game jams are always some of the best, and this one follows as well. The art, audio, and controls all work well with the simple gameplay for each section! High chance of winning this I believe.
This is so far my favourite game on the jam! It feels totally complete game, pretty polished, the art and music are great! I love the vibes of the game, and the cute dino :)
The concept's also really unique, I love that too!
Very well done with this one! I think the music was a bit loud btw. And, the game was a bit difficult to play, took a few attempts, but it was totally fine!
Honestly, this was really fun to play! I loved how each mini-game felt different, and the hand-drawn art gave the game a lot of charm. The humor was great too, especially the ending. Maybe a bit more variety and clearer progression would make it even better. Great job!
Really nice game! The art was very good and the minigames were all very fun.
One thing I'd comment on is the Hardcore mode wasn't really that much different from Casual mode. Adding an additional challenge to the minigames might help make the hardcore mode a bit harder.
Still an amazing game though. Very nice job!
Yeah, I thought about that, but I didn't have time xD. Thanks for playing my game!
Just excluding the ausence of music, I didn’t see anything bad or strange at all, very very amazing, contrats and good work for a submission👌
What do you mean there’s no music? There is :(
For somre reason when I played there wasn’t, just SFX, now its playing… I’ll replay and edit and rerate the sounds, thx por warning >”<
Ooh, thank you for trying it again! I was worried there was some bug with the music or something like that. I’ll check it out after the rating period ends ;D
Pls make it later, cause even playing the same music on the 44 levels, he is SOOO GOOOOD Sound like a 8 bits music and the loop is amazing! Congrats again!
(Btw this is the 2nd time I played on hardcore, how about add 1 more game to the hardmode and make a different final to him? like a chicken for example????)
I agree with you! Since I discovered Roccow, I’ve been using his songs for most of my games. It’s amazing, and he’s so underrated. (I forgot to give him credit for the music btw).
And the different ending is actually a good idea! The bird in the current ending is my real-life parrot, and even the sound is from him. But it would be funny to have something different for the hardcore mode, but, you know, the time limit was tough 😅
definitely one of the best games i've played so far. the mix of all the different minigames mixed with the hand drawn art really makes the game stand out. great work!
I’m happy you liked it! :)
Dude, that's sick!
I do not participate in this one but got the notification about your new game, and I love it. You nailed the theme and that's so cool how fun it is. I'd honestly say that the "Casual" play I'd make even easier. x) I cannot pass egg cracking for like 5-6 tries, and I'm not the worst player. x)) But that's minor. The art is just great for that game! Crazy you did yourself in 2 days. But really, the way you played the theme, that's just wow! (Main reason I didn't participate was that I didn't like the theme, that's why I'm impressed by your interpretation).
Some feedback however:
1. Well, progress bars in some minigames would be really good: in egg cracking and pre-Squid Game specifically but maybe in Everybody hates Dino as well. But since I had the main problem with the egg round, I'd really appreciate seeing how many more "good-passes" I need. I know that you have it in art, but I genuinely thought I need 1-2 more when in reality I needed 6 or 7.
In pre-Squid Game it's also with art, yes, but when I was getting closer I got confused at what point I'll actually eat him (btw, really like your "solution" with the meat there as a timer limitation - super in theme again!) . So if not changing the angle of the camera, I'd at least add something when you're getting closer. So it's more clear.
And I don't have much more to say, lol. It's crazy to have it in 2 days even when you thought it out long before the jam started. x)
The ending twist is a peak comedy.
I am glad you played my game :). I would love to see your entry, but I understand the theme thing. I wasn’t that excited about the theme either, especially compared to the last jam, but I had this idea of making a game focused on some minigames that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
And for the feedback, I’m sorry that the game wasn’t easy enough. I made it easier like three times, but maybe it’s because I’m the developer and there wasn’t much time to playtest xD. I also noticed that the progression bar wasn’t as noticeable as it should have been, but I finished adding the sound just 20 minutes after the time limit, so I couldn’t do much about it.
Thanks for playing my game :D (btw, what do you mean by “Everybody Hates Dino”?)
Just replayed the game to see what I meant by that, realized that it was my bad, I hallucinated about some stuff that wasn't in your game - sorry, don't think about this part.
But here's a think, as I replayed it, I passed egg round in first try and felt that it was kinda easy... What? x))
Do you have some combo mechanic there that if you pass several times without "cross" you crack the egg faster?
And again, visual humor that you have there is just awesome. x)))
Genuinely wish you win. :)
This game is incredible and so well thought out. I was dying laughing at the hunting and how the evolving ended
Happy to hear you had fun with it!
