Cozy game, I like the artwork, the audio and the overall relaxing vibe of the game. The variety of the mini-games is pretty nice, I enjoyed them. Fun and wholesome.

Love the art, the audio, the mechanics, very well polished, fun to play. It also hit close to home, my mum is a tailor (now retired), and I grew up in her sewing lab, cleaning and oiling my mum sewing machines since I was a "wee lad" of 6/7 years old. A suggestion about the controls, to emulate the gesture of sewing on a machine you could change the keys to something like F, and J, and when you keep them both pressed (using both hands) the movement is straight and when you lift F the movement goes to the left vice versa with J, somewhat of inverted controls. Just a weird idea to convey the gesture of using a sewing machine. Great game, one of my favourite in the jam.

One of my favourite submissions to the jam, the style, the vibe, the gameplay, all neatly comes together. Very cool game. Not harsh on the difficulty, just some chill planning on how to close all the leaks. Great game.

Common life story, many inspectors doing nothing and one guy doing all the work. But with hard work I was able to keep my underpaid job. Fun game, love the pixel art, the humor and the take on the theme.

I like the artwork and overall style, fun and simple gameplay. A couple of objects took me a little to figure out, maybe some shading can help with that. Nice take on the theme. Nicely done.

Charming cozy game, simple but fun mechanic, the artwork and the audio works very well together, also nice touch with the pictures telling the story. Nicely polished for a jam game.

Fun and cozy, I love the artwork, the audio and the whole take on the theme of the jam. I would loosen up the day by day scores a bit but not by much. Sweet and fun to play, great game.

Cool concept for the theme and also in originality, a little on screen text would have helped a bit to get the mechanics, but the itch.io page has enough info. Fun idea and fun game.

Brief fun visual novel. I like the artwork and the little plot. Not very tied to the theme of the jam on the gameplay side, I would have liked a little more gameplay tied to patching, but fun and cute submission.

I love the cute and sweet artwork and the funny "noises" for sound effects. Pretty cute and fun game!

I had some difficulties implementing the controls, "3D Tetris" is a harder case study than I expected.

I like the minimalist aesthetic, pretty fun to play around, the speed bonus threw me off, too fast for me. :) Pretty fun game.

Nice work with the audio and the lighting that's what make the experience scary.  The art is nice and it fits the experience. I liked the tense game-play. Nice submission!

I really enjoyed this platformer, I love platformers with a feel of "verticality". I got to the point of getting the wings but then I didn't know how to use them, I think the game might have glitched out (I pressed R to reset but maybe I made it worse?), but I really enjoyed the experience. I got a couple of "Keanu moments" (or woahs), but I will not say when to avoid spoilers. Nice the take on the loop mechanic of literally looping down-up. The characters are fun, and also the narrative ties to the theme of the jam. Pretty cool game!

I liked the narrative aspect of the game, loved the artwork, atmospheric lighting, also nice touch with the audio, simple but it does a lot with less. I would have added a sound effect each time opening the door (kinda old Resident Evil style), maybe with a reverb/echo to empathize the loop and dreamy aspect of the experience. Short but sweet, very nicely done.

I love the take on the theme and I really enjoyed the gameplay, clever but also simple to get into. The artwork is really nice and it fits the experience. Very nicely done!

I like the controls and the snappy attack. It took me a little to understand that to close the mechant panel I had to press E again. I like the style of the artwork and the resource gathering and building mechanics are fun, and a classic. I would have liked to see maybe a mechanic more tied to the theme of jam, but for a jam game it has good depth, and very enjoyable. Nice work!

"Oi, this is a creepy game, innit? I was minding my own business until a giant pyramid or somethin' got me. I was like: Oi, wat the hell, mate". Sorry about that. Love the atmosphere of the game, and the retro 3D artwork, I had some problems with the camera but not anything major. There are a couple of bugs, but fun experience nonetheless!

I love the mix with 3D graphics and 2D artwork! I also enjoyed the audio. I think this experience begs for first person controls in my opinion, as to move inside freely in the experience. I wasn't able to enter the room at 12 o'clock for some reason, I clicked everywhere but it didn't work. If you add an "FPS" perspective this would be a great submission, right now is difficult to navigate. There's potential with better controls.

That's one sassy crab you got there lol, that was fun. I like the atmosphere, but when I encounter the dark figure, a bunch of grass appears out of nowhere and I get stuck. I waited a bit with my torch off but I wasn't able to escape. Interesting dynamic, but I think some instructions for the player would help.

Cute concept with nice low-poly graphics, a bit of variation and sound effects could improve the experience, but still a fun little game.

I like the style and the artwork, it took me a little to understand the mechanics, I was looking for a button to strike the enemies, instead I had to hit them by moving over them. I would slow down the pace a bit, to ramp up the difficulty slowly. I liked the touch of putting a coin in, like in those old arcade machines.  Fun game to play with a nice retro style.

Pretty deep in terms of upgrades and functionalities for a jam submission, much more enjoyable to play with a gamepad in my opinion. Since the jam has loop as a theme I was expecting to "loop around" the screen like in those old asteroid games, it would also give the player a better chance to evade enemies, right now I think the best tactic is to hover around at the center of the map to have a better chance. Anyway, fun game to play.

I like the fact that I could push my stats to unplayable levels, at some point I was going so fast and I was jumping all over that got pretty hectic, but still quite fun. The "blood explosions" are pretty fun, you should add some "vocals" like on some FPS, like "Overkill!" or something like that. :D

Anyway simple but pretty fun and satisfying.

Cool artwork, a bit lacking on game-play, but the premise is absolutely terryfing! XD I would add some sound effects to maybe indicate if the answer was good or bad, right now it feels kind of random.

I really like the artwork and the audio, the retro "radar" screen post-effect is very nice. I was a bit lost about what to do, I don't mind having a slower gameplay, but I really wanted a minimap to understand my orbit. Interesting concept, nicely done.

I really enjoyed this game. Fun platforming with a twist, hit the theme on the narrative side, I would have like to see a take also game-play wise, but this game is pretty fun and I loved the cyberpunk aesthetic and palette, solid on the audio part too, nice touch on switching songs based on the skill used. Very well done.

Fun concept! I really like the combination of artwork and audio. Playing against your shadow is a fun idea, I like the fact of programming my moves so I don't get "spooked". Controls are kind of annoying, they took some of the enjoyment out for me, the movement is too slippery, especially in this case where I wanted some precision. Still very enjoyable, but a bit of frustration when levels get harder.

I like the concept of the game, the artwork is essential but it gives the right atmosphere also with the audio. I would have added a few sound effects, maybe to alert how close the player is to a stone, maybe an eerie sound effect. The viewport is a bit too restrictive for me, but you could hint the player by using some sounds as I described. I wanted to reach the center, but I think I need to "git gud" first. Nice game.

Fun game with a pretty nice artwork, gameplay is fun with the dual dynamic of avoiding projectiles and banishing enemies with the mouse. The jump is a little "floaty" for my taste, also I would rise up the resolution a bit, to give more breath to the player. But very fun game and nicely polished.

Fun little racing game, short but sweet. I like the dynamic of  racing against my previous laps, or at least that's how it looked like. Nice experience.

Nice game, I like the concept and the mechanic, and the overall fun cute vibe. My main problem is that when I change the programming of one robot it gets stuck almost all the time. I got to buy a second robot and I wanted to rearrange the paths but both of them got stuck and stopped moving, maybe I got into a bug or something. Anyway nice take on the theme :).

I really like the concept, I love the artwork and the audio, the racers are colorful and pretty fun and goofy, I love that. Game-play wise is a bit too confusing, maybe better start with a few runners and introduce the abilities level by level, so you can smooth out the difficulty a bit. It would be also useful to see where's the head of the race, or which are the first three racers, maybe add a contour to the racer at the head. Fun game.

Noice!

Fascinating style, I love the minimalism of the experience, simple but very elegant. Audio is also nice, a few music tracks maybe didn't felt as "right" as others, I would have gone for a softer tone generally, and maybe add some more sound effects. Fun to play, and enjoyable experience. I would have changed the lighting a bit, but I think is more of a personal taste. Anyway nice submission to the jam!

Very nice the idea of managing the Δv for looping around astral objects. Really cool game, love the retro style and the overall feel. Nicely done.

I like the minimalist style and the setting, simple and fun. Really great work with the sound, it hits all the right deeps. Very cool game.

Somewhat of a spooky RPG vibe here. I enjoyed the game, it manages to create a dark atmosphere even if using funny looking characters. I got duped and ended up in a perpetual loop in purgatory, but who knows maybe there's a break in the chain to escape! Nicely done, cool game.

This submission really hits on the narrative side, the graphics is nice and fitting, I also liked the sounds used for the voices of the characters. I was hoping that when the interrogator says "noted", notes would appear on the registry with all the suspects, maybe it's a missing feature? Anyway I really enjoyed the game.

I like the fact that video tapes are still around in 2035 :D, but who knows some public administrations still use floppies today.
