I love the art style using the abstract shapes to build characters, a really fun take on the Bat signal style approach.. I didn't fully get how to play it at first, some more explicit instructions would have been helpful.. but great art and characters, great music, really well done!

Fun theme! Some combos were a little intuitive, but a fun simple puzzle with a really charming theme / mood!

@blushingcrow Noted ! I'm going to make some tutorial sheet on the front page of Ludum so it will be more intuitive ! thx for your comment !

love the concept
i don't think the timer is a good idea as finding the pieces for the heroes is complicated enough for some and would not be fair in all situations as some characters are complicated (lady bidet) and some are simple (batman).
also can you not retract the news paper entirely as if you forget you cant see it again
also last thing, i hate lady bidet she has no right to live 👍

The art style is pretty cool and funny!

Pretty cool! It took me a while to figure out that the silouhettes were approximations, even though that should probably have been obvious ^^ I always selected three shapes and got stuck until I realized I could reselect the hero.

I hit a couple of bugs on the web version, but overall really good. It was a bit unintuitive with the silhouette building, for instance only having a limit of three, but not telling me that, and if you make a mistake you cant undo it without having to go into the newspaper and reselecting the hero, or not having a way to check the disaster again if you forgot or missed it. Other that those points an excellent game.

That's a really cool concept! I found it a bit tricky to identify and match the right shapes. It always ended up “messy” for me :D It's a really fun game!

@itero-proto Yes, the option tab didn't make it in time ! So for now it's a trap lol

@itero-proto I just finished playing it and clicking Options on the start menu sends you to an inescapable grey screen. The rest of the game is playable from the post jam browser link :thumbsup:. The first browser version hides much of the screen, making that version unplayable. No idea about the downloadable version, since I did not play that one.

Really really cute and unique take on the theme, fuck sniffler though my man is useless :sob:

Great job!!

I really like the mechanics of the game. But I won't have time to read and understand the text in the newspaper.

Love the concept and the art! The different silhouettes made for some really fun looking character designs. It took me a second to get it since I didn't realize the signal would turn on automatically once you got the right answer, I just wish there was some sort of visual to let you know you messed up/should go start over. Overall really nice job!

The art is unique, the concept is amazing, the gameplay is a bit tricky but enjoyable, the only thing that got me it was the part of the restart, is not intuitive; and as a person that goes straight to the game it gave me a little struggle, but overall, an astonishing game, nice job!

Thanks a lot @hhch! I was rusty coming into this jam and underestimated the amount of data that needs to be handled for such a basic looking game. Glad you liked it!

I love the idea, feels pretty unique for this jam! Visuals, audio and humor all work together very well and the progression feels nice with superheroes unlocking with every new level.

There are few technical problems I encountered here and there, and I wish I was able to revisit the newspaper, as it goes away and then I can't find it anywhere. But apart from that really enjoyed this, great job!

It took me a while to figure out exactly what I need to do and how to work it properly, but once I did, I loved it! The art style is great and super fun, especially the characters's designs, and the whole concept/Idea for the game is awesome and very unique! Really liked it, congrats for the team!
