Hey alpharock6, thanks for participating! This was a pretty entertaining game. It took me a minute to understand I was supposed to talk to the guy multiple times, but once I did, I got the point of the gameplay. Great little game. Hope to see you in future events!

Really entertaining and polished very well. Loved the gradual drip of new mechanics.

Jogo simples, mas rachei de rir 🤣

Bem carismático o carinha, os gráficos são simples e mesmo assim agradáveis.

Muito criativo o jogo, parabéns 👏

this was a super cute little game! i really liked the decision to break up the mechanics and add them in slowly as pieces of the story, it really gave everything some new interest. i would have enjoyed it if things got a bit more intense, cause i generally found it pretty easy, but i know balancing is really tough during a jam. well done!

lol at the start I nearly thought this game was incomplete, love how it opened up. The guy seemed to be saying exactly what I was thinking some of the time.

Nicely done!

At first I was like - "this is simple", but as I played I realized it was actually really really cool! I liked the kind of silly meta-ness of the NPC. I do have to ask though, is the "insatiable greed" scene the final end, or if I was more tame, could I have gone further?

Nice the way you build up and tell the story! Very solid implementation! Feels fresh. Just the end when I collected to much life energy came too surprising without announcement, did not feel good. Congratulations to this very own style nice game!
