How does you game fit the theme?
You are not alone. All your friends from the dessert lands are here!
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, expect the music. I own the rights to use the music, but I did not make it.

This is a fun game! Lots of fun upgrades, and it felt like a good level of difficulty; I managed to reach level 30. The screen shake is a little too strong, but otherwise the visuals and audio are solid. Great work!

Hiders & HuntersThis game was great, i enjoyed it. The characters are awesome. Only thing I would add is a tutorial.
Submitted
By Your SideReally good progression with the powerups and different weapons made it fun for the middle levels. Later on the enemies were too few and far between. Nice little game though. I played it far longer than I should have;)

Hide and CreepLoved it! Especially the art style. I used pixel art as well. The gameplay was kind of difficult at the beginning but then got gradually easier and easier. But then at the end, it was a bit too easy to absolutely wreck the baddies. Other than that, great game, good potential for future updates and well done!
If you don't mind, could you play and review my game? I need some constructive criticism lol.

I'm Not Alone! (A Story of Anxiety)Wow this game is amazing. I played for 23 minutes, I wanted to unlock everything to see if I would get that "You Win" payout. Only suggestion would be to make late-game baddies a little tougher, my uber donuts wrecked shop as soon as they were ranked up and only bosses could threaten me. Fantastic jam entry.

Summer on the LakeSatisfying bullet hell game. Though it was difficult to make out the mobs over some of the background objects.

Last StandGreat game, love the cake massacre as it is both quite and intense at the same time. Also, nice upgrades.

Beans, Ghosts & MagicNote: I played for a prety long time, reached level 30 and killed giant cookie.
Minuses:
- Pixel grid ruins pixel art becuase of the movement and distorts cute faces you were trying to show.
- Too much text in tutorial. I dont think wide audithory would read that. That counts as plus as well, because most games from jack have a lack of any tutorial.
-Some upgrades are more useful than another ones. This is balancing question, i understand that you had only one week, but still. I can survive only on rate of fire and projectiles count, which appear to show each 2nd level up.
Pluses:
- Art and UI. Solid, nice artwork. I can see enemies and player, althought i wouldnt make enemy cookies same sprite.
- Idea. Every game that is food related gives positive vibes, nicely done.
- Feeling. I love the particles and collecting guts part, good ol' topdown shooter.
Overall: Solid entry, i honestly played your game more than any other. Take care!

Around the WoundThanks for playing and the detailed feedback!
By the pixel grid I tried to hide my horrible art with some displacement of the pixels (simply lower resolution).
I did not expect many people to go in to the upgrade section of the game unless they really wanted to. The game is about exploring different build paths. You are still right, there is a lot of text and I could have implemented some in to the upgrade itself.
The balancing issue was due to time constrains and that I thought the game would be too hard (after play testing and comments on other games I have submitted in other jams) so I made the game too easy for some.
insane game, super polished and really fun to play, spent a long time playing this lmfao i just wish the player was more distinguished from the background though

A Merchants Guide To The GalaxyReally fun game! Had a bit of a Vampire Survivors feel to it - great job!

You're Not AloneI really enjoyed this game! I liked how it felt to shoot and to kill the enemies, and the death explosion animations felt crunchy, very good. Great job!
