I love the artstyle and colorscheme used, and animations are fluent and great. However, I don't understand which kid I am suppose to throw in at all, and after the level being reset many times, I sadly gave up... But I love the theme and humor! Great game!

Great idea. The only issue that I had with it was that there were no evident clues as to who I was supposed to dunk into the cake. Good job!

I haven't played a guess who style game before. Enjoyed every second of it.

Great idea! The mood is great, due to the psychotic music. It's fun to throw little kids in cakes too. I wonder if you are the real monster in the game... look at that mother when you grab a child!

Really enjoyed this on our stream. Great concept full of humor, and I really like the art style.

Does the level has to restart every time you throw a kid into the cake? Or am I doing something wrong? :) Nevertheless it's a good idea for this theme.

Haha! Well polished and a lot of fun. The real monsters were the ones that tried to protect the kids from me of course. XD

Humourous yet quite innocent, I liked it! Challenge could be ramped up a tad, like maybe a Dad is always trying to find you, really slowly, or something.

Overall, solid!

The art style is great, it's a little quick and it is difficult to work out who I am supposed to throw into the cake. It's a funny idea though and pretty polished.

Wish I knew who to throw, but cool game! I included it in part 19 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/bouSnGLQUcs

you're really a monter in this game - but the best part is the monsters moms, hahaha! Nice colors! but i didn't understand what to do on the third level. The music that plays when you do your objective is kind...scary? Overall great game!

Won all the levels on the first try. Went and purposely threw a wrong kid into the cake afterwards to make sure it was possible to lose--and it was! Well done on providing such helpful clues, while also making the player have to really observe closely to win.

Sometimes the target had fairly obvious dialog that indicated it was their birthday. Depending on people's luck, they might not even have to familiarize themselves with the concept of paying attention to physical features before reaching the last level.

Really unique concept, cute art, and angry moms are absolutely terrifying, haha! Really well done!
