Pretty cool game, the difficulty starts out quite high, as the timer goes by pretty fast. Very nice art style and the scroll mechanic is nicely done, I love the binary looking direction, games that let you tilt modularly tend to have weird viewing angles. Great job and nice entry!
Thank you so much for your kind words! :D
Love the attempt, but the opaque card mechanic and too harsh of a timer made it hard to stick to it for long. Super cute and interesting concept tho, so good job there.
Thanks for giving it a shot and for the feedback!
Hi ! I love the idea and visuals. the gameplay is nice and interesting but I think the difficulty is really to high hence I got quickly discouraged. It's a shame because I think that this is the only thing I'd change in your game, apart from that it looks like a fun game and is pretty well polished !
Hi! Thank you so much, that means a lot. We definitely pushed the difficulty a bit too far, so we completely get how that could make the game frustrating before you really get into it. Really appreciate you sticking with it long enough to leave such thoughtful feedback!
Beautiful artwork! I got lost on what I was supposed to be doing fast, though. Very high difficulty.
Sometimes a guy just needs to feed his emotional support flame while fixing oxygen leaks and doing math on the background hehe It's the most common feedback we'll try to adjust it on the future and make the instructions more clear, thanks for giving it a go and for your kind words!
This is a VERY VERY good idea i hope this gets expanded.
For now the tutorial is very confusing but once you understand it the game loop is very fun!
A better tutorial, infinite mode and you have a very cool game
(Also it was a bit challenging to read the calculations especially with some numbers like 6 or 9)
Good job!
Thank you for your kind words and for giving it a go :D
Agree with some of the other commenters about the difficulty and confusion about controls. Lots of really nice art in this game though!
Thank you!! Really glad you liked the art . And yeah, the comments about the controls and difficulty have definitely been a common theme, so that’s something we’d want to improve next time. Thanks for giving it a go!
Very cool, cute looks. Overall it is a very interesting idea and it's beautifully delivered!
For me the game was really tough though, but mostly just confusing. It took me a while to figure out, that pick the cards as numbers. I probably lost it somewhere in the text. Not that it is a big or objective problem, but it annoyed me with my slow reaction time.
Thanks a lot! And yeah, that makes sense, if the card mechanic doesn’t click immediately, the whole thing probably feels way harder than it should. Really appreciate you giving it a try and explaining what tripped you up!
Really challenging, lot of fun though
Thank you for your kind words :D
Instructions were little bit confusing so it took me some time to get it going, yeah, nice idea!
Also love the all custom art for the game
Thank you so much! We’re really happy you liked the idea and the artwork! And thank you for the feedback about the instructions too, it’s definitely something we’ll work on making clearer and more intuitive. Thanks for playing!
The artwork is super cute. Unfortunately, after reading the instructions multiple times and trying around a lot, I still had absolutely no clue how to "play" the game. I needed the little video on the page to get it. Maybe you can try giving more clear instructions or a tutorial in game?
Thank you so much for the feedback, and we’re really glad you liked the artwork! You’re completely right about the instructions, that's why we put the video to see if it could shed a little light, we'll bear it in mind for future games.
Thanks for taking the time to point it out and for giving the game a try!
The early rounds are just a little too fast for my coffee-free brain. Adore the art style, and your use of the wildcards were very creative! Great job!
Thank you for your kind words :D
I wish there was a little more time in the early rounds to figure it out. I thought the artwork was cute. I really liked the little fireball!
Believe it or not there was even less time before haha thank you :)
Beautiful art and a great concept. It’s challenging and sometimes too hard, but when everything clicks it’s really fun. It demands constant attention, which makes it stand out
Thank you for your kind words :D
the artwork is really beautiful and the game was nice too!
Thank you for your kind words :D
Very cool game! It's rather hard, and I think ramping up the difficulty over time might make the gameplay a bit smoother. I loved the art!
Thanks! We tried doing that but we'd feared it was way to hard haha thanks for the suggestion though!
Very cool concept and art is beautiful but the game is way too hard. I think I lost 10 times before I made any progress.
Thaaaanks it was way too many frames to paint too. We tried to make it easier than it was in the first version, and still... haha
very fun game i kind of forgot about the oxygen a few times lol
Hahaha I always forget about the cookies too
