I'm very impressed, especially by the graphics! Running around and solving minigames was fun, and some of them could be quite challenging. It was especially chaotic at the beginning when I barely had time to read the instructions and just had to react on instinct. The sound effects were great, especially the 'wooow' you get when successfully completing a minigame, very satisfying. I like the music too, it fitted the setting perfectly. There aren't really any points I can criticize, but having more minigame variety would have made the game even better!

Short Cuts Lawn Mowing AcademyThanks MightyJor! We figured out pretty last minute that sometimes we didn't provide enough time information to the player for them to figure stuff out. I think we as developers thought it was super obvious because we played it everyday for a week but it obviously was not. Playtesting is something that we'll do a bunch more of when the time comes and if time allows haha.
Nice game! Art, gameplay, and sounds all seem very polished! Use some more time and you may be able to fully release this. The only thing I would add would be possibly more precise movement, or smaller colliders on the tables, when playing in medium and hard I got stuck on them a lot.
Other than that, good job!

Shouldn't've Taken The Shortcut...Wow, this game was great! This seems more like a complete mobile game than a game created for a game jam. The sounds are perfect, the concept is very creative, and the minigames are great fun. I do wish there were more of them though, as they start to get a bit repetitive after a while (though I understand this is likely due to time constraints). I am honestly struggling to come up with many more critiques for this game. At least for me personally, the fact that the arrow keys only work for movement in the up and down direction is a bit of a let down (but again, I completely understand that time was tight, and this did not strongly affect my experience). Overall, amazing job, definitely one of the best I have seen in the jam thus far.
Great game. Cool art and the minigames were fun and diverse. Well done.

Nothing but RunI loved every second of this game! The art, the music, the Warioware game style, everything! You did really well at embodying the theme shortcuts! The only thing that i had a problem with was that during the "Block the Tattlers" Minigame, over half the time the tattler's hand wouldn't get blocked and pass straight through my hand. But besides that, this is great! Amazing Work!
