Really cool warioware like minigame collection, although why is the king punching boulders that are falling onto the castle :laughing:

I did not get it at first. Only at first :D It made me smile. Thanks :D The art is really good and I think it will be hard to find something like this one out there.

Pixel art is great! Good difficulty progression. Definitely got more and more chaotic. I had fun!

Brilliant. The graphics, were solid and the execution animation was solid. Everything was solid. A fun set of mini games.

It's a pretty fun game ! Pixel art is on point. Only real problem I could find is the inclusion of the escape key in the 'press a button' minigame. This exits the game's fullscreen mode without registering the keystroke, and cost me the run at 21k score.

Congratulations ! :)

@fluffy-kaeloky thanks for the feedback! I'll make a note of that that escape key, we'll try to fix it soon. That's a great score too, I think you beat both of our records :D

Well I got 15k points, lol! This game is ridiculous but fun. It reminds me a little bit of WarioWare: Rapid fire micro games. At first I didn't understand if I was making progress or not but then I figured out the pattern of the game and just enjoyed it. Would've liked some sound effects, but it's all good! Nice game, and congrats on finishing.

:) Cool game! Great pixel art! Could use some simple sfx though! Very clever, and fun to play!

Nit: On itch.io, I want to play it in full-screen mode, but I always have to press escape during the key-press minigame, and that kills the full-screen mode and pauses things!

I love the WarioWare concept, I miss this kind of game for PC. I want there to be more mini-games, but I know the time is too short.

The tax collector mini-game is the hardest for me (I lost twice in this

Had fun playing your game, cool mini games, great pixel art. Got a score of 20213. Great job!

Fun little game :) I was a bit confused at first on two mini games (the horse one I had three tries to understand it was about typing on the keyboard ^^' and the houses wasn't clear that you need to click on them at first.
Maybe a bit of UI or a declarative "DO THIS!" could've help at least on the first three levels?
Else, really neat and well executed, in addition of being original!

Congrats ;)

Cool music, art and minigames, but i had this one problem. When i was playing this minigame with pressing buttons i had to click escape which didn't work, it only made me leave fullscreen. But besides that very cool game!

Got 10k in first try. Very nice game! Easy mini games soon start to feel like chaos and give you some adrenaline. Great submission for the game jam.

Нелегкая работа - управлять королевством. Как я понимаю этого короля. И сборщика налогов. Только палача не понимаю. Но с метеоритами явно что-то надо делать.

I've absolutely no idea what i just did in the last minutes, but it was quite fun. Don't know exactly what this game is about and what it has to do with the theme, but after some tries the challenge was accepted :v: What isn't that great is to switch from keyboard to mouse and vice versa. That broke a little the flow, to keep in mind for the next game of this kind. Thank's for sharing!

@ekilibr thank you for playing! We had some ideas in mind about adding some simple instructions but we didn't have enough time to add them, thanks for the feedback!

@very-bad-bunny-studio we wanted to include more minigames too, already had some great plans too, but as you said time was short. Thanks for playing!

Damn that was intense! So simple but yet so fun! graphics and audio were spot on as well, this is a great entry

Very fun game.
I have no complaints, except that I want more mini-games. ;)
Maybe you will work on this game and put in some more content. Would be great!

Nice game! The mini games were fun and the pixel art is really clean!
I quite like the fact that there is no instruction and you have to figure out what to do at first.
I would have like to be able to play all the games with keyboard only or mouse only though, as switching each time between mini games made me lose some precious seconds.

Good job and thank you for your game!

Last time I felt robbed of my high score with the escape key, so I gave it another try ...

Just wanted to post that here and watch you guys weep.

Neat little experience. I enjoy minigames (as you might have guessed from our last jam), and this one was short and very fast paced, which kept my attention. Most importantly, it was finished and wrapped up in a nice little package. Aside from lack of minigames and some polish like a lack of SFX (which I guess is due to the time constraint), the overall experience was good. Great work!

I really enjoyed this. It was fun, cheeky, and pretty polished (especially for 72 hours). If you had more time it would be awesome to see more minigames, but I get the time constraint. I would've liked to have seen more challenge in the executioner game, since it seemed like all you needed to do was hit a key as soon as you saw the scene. But besides that, it was super engaging.

@lb01 interesting point, the execution scene was supposed to be a bit of a breather in between the intense minigames, but I definitely understand if the lack of challenge there left something to be desired.

@amastryukov thank you! We were very very close to adding SFX right at the end, but didn't have enough time left sadly.

@fluffy-kaeloky you're no doubt the #1 champion now, I'm impressed!
