This was a cute little game! It really reminded me of a game called "Wario Ware" idk if you have heard of it or not. But the hampter loading screen was amazing and I wanted to see more of Hampter!

Wow haha I laughed a lot, it’s a really funny game. Overall, five stars, love the vibe, very good. Fun, I would say five stars too, can’t complain, had fun the whole time I ran the executable. As far as innovation goes, yes, absolutely, never pet a sad dog in a game, you know I thought hitting the balloons was pretty hard because if you miss one you get wet. Audio is definitely seven stars, very good music and sound effects. For the humor and mood, I don’t know, it was pretty funny, I loved most of all the loading screen, because you know I’m very old and like to wait once in a while. Graphics A+

Fun mini games. Cute art style. I wish I could continue playing the water balloon game after I miss one. If you expand I would love to see more mini games added also faster load times. Great job.

@j4cko16 Glad you enjoyed it! And yes, the team definitely took inspiration from Wario Ware in coming up with the game idea!

@jjbug @whos-candice @wizcas Thanks for playing, appreciate the feedback!

@paul-avallone Thanks for the feedback! As an aside, the loading screens were originally meant to include a panning effect to/from the games to break up the pacing, but sadly it had to be cut due to time.

Adorably done!

Music was great, scenes were great, art was wonderful.

I really enjoyed this!

My only "room for growth" comment would come down to I'd love to see some sense of progression.
I'm not sure if I was just failing the mini games at the last second, but the quest aspect of the game was missing for me after the intro scene.

Still incredibly well done though! I had fun - thank you. :3

Really cute little game! Loved the animations done for the hamter running in the wheel. The music for the games and all the sound effects were well made as well!

My only critique would be perhaps a better indicator of winning a minigame as sometimes, especially with the dogs, I had no idea if I won.

Otherwise a great game! Great job friend :)
