Ohh the artwork is soo cute.. I want to cuddle the doggo.
Fun game!
thank you for feedback.
That's really nice—to pay your debts somewhere! 😂 Cool artwork, and I was laughing at the comics in the description
The art really is great and super unique. I enjoyed the concept a lot and it was pretty fun, very good vibe. I would have liked more player choices in the cave, like paths or something. But overall pretty nice job, you made a good game! (and thanks for your rating and comment on my game!)
Great art style! It's really unique and stands out.
Also the sound design fits well with the atmosphere.
Nice work!
I'm really enjoying this game, especially when the money starts piling up.
Artistically amazing, and the gameplay is fun too!
Thank you for playing, glad you enjoy.
Is pretty good
I really like the humor in your game. This kind of game where you have to decide when to quit is really fun, just like that board game Incan Gold. If there were more room for strategy, I would enjoy it even more!
Fun game, awesome art and the mechanics were fun
I payed my debt. I really liked the animation and art. The sound was extra immersive. I only wish that combat was more involving.
Absolutely excellent atmosphere thanks to the art and sound design. My favorite enemy was the swarm of rats in a cape. Those layered backgrounds really worked well for a sense of walking through the tunnels. I wish I had seen more first-person views in the jam, since it really gives me a sense of immersion. Nice "tuntacles", by the way..
Please include a Quit button in the next build. If a user doesn't know about the alt-f4 function on Windows, it will seem like they can never escape from the cave! Also, since there is no reason the user wouldn't want to sell a treasure, including the "Are you sure you want to sell this item?" box generates an extra click multiplied over the course of all the treasures in your inventory, multiplied over the course of re-visiting the shop. It would be great if the game ended as soon as you paid off your debt. I had won by day 6, but I was a little confused since the game kept going. I hopped back and forth to quickly advance time, but the game didn't seem to end even after day 17.
I was pleasantly surprised to find I could put money INTO the bank and get a green surplus number. Would've loved to see something used with that.
Definitely my favorite art of the jam.
Really Thank you for deeply feedback and I like your game too! ^o^
Great game. The art and sound are incredible, and it was surprisingly addictive
THE RAT DESIGN IS AMAZING, really nice done on the art! wish the selling part was just a click and not drag other than that 10/10
The game is pretty fun. I like the art.
I really like your art, and the roguelike gameplay is very well done!
I really like your art, and the roguelike gameplay is very well done!
Amazing artwork. The main gameplay loop is fun, but it could use a bit more clearer connection to the theme.
Really Really nice art style and I love the concept! I would love to this fleshed out into a larger game!!
Incredibly beautiful art! And I like the mechanics of planning a hike.
The game makes you want to see more content!)
But I was hoping to see an inscription like "You did well" when I paid off the debt :)
Looove the art style. The concept is great.
I wonder how you could build in a little more of a sense of progression.
Nice work!
Thank you for feedback and you are too.
