It's a really nice game but I felt a bit lost in. I had issues to really understand the game and how it works. But the rest is great. Good job !
Glad you still enjoyed some of it even if you didn't get it ahah. It takes a couple of tries to understand, unfortunately this almost always happens...
I LOVE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!
The art is really cool! The music is so good!
The gameplay and replayability are awesome!
Thank you so much! Means allot to the whole team (art and music were done by two different very talented team members). Glad you liked the gameplay too, I was quite happy with the results:)
Very fun !! Excellent storytelling :) The visuals are also very good, the little characters' speech made me laugh hehehe Thank you for your participation !
Glad you liked the storytelling:) We liked the 80s comic book style theme with 8bit. Thank you for hosting!!
Honestly? Best game I’ve played so far in this jam! Excellent work!!!
So glad you liked it!! This comment means allot, I've seen your other comments and you are a great game critic. Thank youu:)
Also amazong job to you with your submission.
ABSOLUTE LOVE! PERFECT SCORE FOR THIS ONE!
Wow! Thank youuu:) All the last minute stress and weekend grind payed off just thanks to this comment!!
Really nice game ! One of the best I've played so far ! Took me a bit of time to understand that I could you the boost on a dedicated dice in the shop (like in Balatro I guess ?). I see that Balatro inspired a lot of people :)
Yes! These kind of games require some time to understand how they work, or someone literally explaining all the mechanics. Glad you figured it out and enjoyed playing:)
Really enjoyed playing this game, the strategy aspect is really entertaining !
I wish there were more stages, gg !
So glad you liked it to the point of wanting more stages! As you know time limitations made it difficult to add more content. Also we reached the token limit of PICO-8 and had no more sprite sheet space, so it is as long as it could be hahah.
Thanks again for the nice comment:)
Nice game, had fun !
Very fun and loved the retro vibe, I could play hours !
Thank you!!
I had so much fun with this, really original idea, love it! Great work!
Glad you liked the idea, thank you:)
Fun game, i never saw this game engine before xD so GGGG
Glad you liked it:)
PICO-8 is great! I recommend it allot, you do have to program everything from scratch but it is very simple and easy to get into.
