How does the game fit the theme?
You start by trusting your game jam teammates to do their assigned work, but quickly discover that no one is actually getting anything done. You’re forced to check everyone’s work and take over their tasks yourself.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All game code and artwork were created from scratch during the jam. The music was created by my brother, voice acting was provided by Takazo Hall, and the Japanese translation was provided by Arisa Takenaka Trombley. Sound effects were also created from scratch

This was really well done! I loved how it was short, but you used every second to its advantage. Good job!
Peak. Peak.
I was laughing way too much at the story. It's definitely a very creative take on the jam's theme. Overall, I enjoyed this a lot.
Nice and polished and very relatable! Played to the end
Sometimes main character in cutscene talks in mono, which is a little spooky
Hahaha, I laughed a lot playing this game. Really great teamwork!
this game is a great one that is meant to be played one time It reflects the theme so well The team work on this game is great And idk how you made a good story with poop, goop and poopgoop
It was very creative, and I found it quite fun to play through; however, one critique I do have is making it so that for the typing one, you show all the text, since I would try to predict words but would be wrong. Also, it makes it way more fun to read :). Great Job!
Thank you for the feedback :) you're right about that!
Very creative take on the theme! I also liked the flow of the game, and how the cutscenes add to the story in a good way.
So far, it’s been the most creative execution of the theme, I loved it!
It is simple, but it is fun (and accurate XD), I love the cut scenes.
I LOVED THIS! It was so innovative! The art, animation, voice acting, audio, all the aspects were so good! But more than that, it felt so relatable QWQ I gotta say, the animations and the voice acting were my favorite part even tho the gameplay itself was also fun. Everything tied together so well!
Loved the game, played it all the way to the end! So much care taken with the voice acting, story, animation, and really all aspects. I enjoyed having a variety of games to play, and loved the Spongebob reference ;) Great work!
HAHA you got the reference! :D
どうも、日本人だよ！ 日本人が声優やってるんだよね？そうとしか聞こえなかったよ。
にしても、1週間めっちゃ頑張ってゲーム作り続けてようやく完成したのに、なんでもう一度ゲーム作らなきゃならないんだよ！！
本当にありがとうございます！はい、そうです！またすぐ次のゲームを作らなきゃいけないんですよね!
Exactly the reason I work alone!😄
Very nice work; the variation in different gameplay styles was very refreshing, & I enjoyed it.❤️
This is an unexpected way to do it, Great game
super charming! also love the character design
the end was definitely a headbanger
ahhh thank you! I loved your game, I am definetly inspired by it! Hope you win :)
Too real lol
I'm sure none of this was based on real life experiences right? ;P
relatable af. nice voice acting and music.
Such a fun concept! I really enjoyed the intro, the art and the character designs, and the voice acting was pretty good too! Keep it up! :D
FYI, the final video is cut-off at the bottom a bit, so the subtitles aren't visible.
Interesting way to combine a series of mini-games. They all were well put-together, though I wish the writing bits weren't about just poop... though I get that it kind of goes into the metaphor of the game's message. There was a lot of text to type, but I did really like the reveal mechanic there, I don't think I've seen that done quite like that elsewhere.
The video intros/outros were really cool to see, great character design!
hey dude thanks for this really nice feedback honestly I really appreciate it. I made some of the fixes for the outro. Thanks for honest review. I appreciate it. I really liked your game. Keep it up!
