This was a fun game. Reminds me of a demo I tried on steam where every tree was trying to kill you. I liked that every death had different respawn dialogue.

everything is really a mimic, really fun!

This is cool game and cover page is cool and overall vibe

Submitted

This is a super fun experience, I love having to second guess myself and every action that I will be making. I like the 8 bit styled music and I love the art style of the game, it gives me vibes to a game boy game.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I'm happy you liked it.

Well done man, by a solo developer in a week it is so cool.

Developer

Oh, you have no idea how badly it's coded lol. Thanks for the feedback!

Very fun and funny, well done!

What a great game. Had a good time with this one. The story was well done and love the rage game elements. 

Developer

Thanks! Happy you enjoyed.

Well done, I liked the concept. It was fun through trial and error, to figure out which ones are mimics. Then laughing when I was 100% certain, no this one can't be a mimic. Also its cool to see a Pico-8 game in the jam.

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Love the concept! Great work doing this in Pico8 as well!

I couldn't figure out how to get past the car mimic.  Skidmark/10

Developer

That’s unfortunate, if you want to try again, there’s a walkthrough on the itch page that you can watch if you get stuck.

Really funny concept. Simple art style but effective. Good job!

Submitted

Very fun to play! Feels a bit like 'Trees hate you' but in pixelart style. Loved it!

Of course! I’ve got a bit of a backlog, but I’ll try to get around to yours soon. Thanks for the feedback!

SPOILER: Even the planet is a mimic! Wow! What if... the game itself is also a mimic, running on a system that mimics a retro game console?

A really cool and short game, combining comedy with horror. Very Well made !

Submitted

I like how the game builds the horrific atmosphere quite well by making the world look normal yet unsettling enough with the mix of the graphics & the audio. Despite everything looking normal, the music just felt silent and foreboding enough which helps establish the fear that you might run into a mimic.

The game is also quite fun and forgiving! I like how you can restart each part really easily while also not giving away too much hints, allowing the player to really try and explore/interact with everything around them. Good job!

Developer

Thanks for all the feedback! Good to hear you enjoyed.

Submitted

Bravo,the game delivers a great horror experience and features good storytelling.

Developer

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed.

Very glad to have save points on this one aha.

Loved the use of the pico 8 style. An impressive amount of potential death animations haha. The gameplay by it's nature was obviously a little trial and error, but as mentioned the save points and quick restart were a great choice. Sound was fitting and it was cool to see the full story arc play out. It goes without saying but i'm also a fan of the theme ;)

Great work all up!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for the feedback! I’m glad you liked it and hope the trial and error parts weren’t too annoying.

Edit: A fellow mimic enjoyer, I see!

Submitted

Hilarious to die in such silly ways. The font was really hard to read.

Developer(+1)

Yeah, it’s sort of a consequence of using Pico 8 that the font isn’t super readable sometimes, so I’m sorry that impacted your experience. Glad you liked it otherwise though!

Submitted

This game is really good, a perfect bite sized game.I really liked the story and the dialogue after you died

Developer

Happy to hear you enjoyed.
