Good job! I really like the visuals :-D

Don't find the control after the 2 text bubble. :/

Two games for one! Love the visuals and sounds, supreme aesthetics. Great work!

Super creative take on the theme! The level of polish in this is astounding, super impressive for a game made in 48 hours. Especially in the graphics, my favourite being the Asteroids game in that department, WOW. The idea of the main character aging each time you go to the arcade is a super cute touch too.

Unfortunately I encountered a soft-lock in the Space Invaders game where you can't leave the game when the spaceships go under the screen. Still a super fun experience though, I definitely want to try again to see what comes afterwards!

This is really impressive! Great polish and sounds

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

This is so, so good. And I ran into the same freeze-up bug twice. It was so excellent that I went back a second time to get through the whole story, but I lost track of time in the mines again and got stuck in the loop. I didn't restart the entire game a third time, so I didn't get to the end of the story. :(

The bug happens when the timer goes below zero in the mines. The score mode counts the timer down to zero, but it seems to check == and not <= so it goes deeper and deeper into negative territory, racking up a top score but also locking the game forever: https://imgur.com/a/mVylK6K

That one flaw aside, this is AWESOME. It's got a great look and feel, I'm interested in the story, and in a great way I care more about the arcade games because of my very limited coins. And wow the games are just great.

This is a very strong all-around compo entry that hits graphics, sound, gameplay, and narrative... and the fact that it's so well polished makes the breadth of scope that much more impressive.

A few random notes on the individual arcade games:

- Asteroids is made a lot more fun with your touch of friction, great feel

- Mines was a really interesting puzzle-ish game, and I spent the most time here. I had to explore a bit to learn the rules. Specifically I got confused by the behavior of stacks of boulders: for a while my mental model was "sometimes rocks fall off sideways but mostly they don't" - took me a little while to learn the reason. I never dared to unleash the monsters


Maybe I'll come back to try the story a third time and just not play the mines.

Excellent.

@harry-damm I added a control explanation in the game page.

@pkenney since the LD rules allow it I made a fix so the game wont freeze anymore if timer reach 0. The new version is online.

The game looks amazing, sadly I can't run it on Linux. Downloaded the sources, that's haxe right? I think I should be able to run it on linux if it's haxe

Really impressive that you managed to make 3 mini games with such good polish all round! And the story hit me right in the feels. Great entry.

Nice!
