This is a great game. It reminds me of the impossible game. I thought the "not" goals were funny.

That was fun! reminds me of warioware in a way. I enjoyed how each puzzle was mixing itself up.

Cool little game, the music fits quite nicely and the puzzles are well designed, maybe a bit repetitive but that's ok for a jam :)

Well done mate!

Cool puzzle game with pleasing graphics. Would have benefited from more variation in the levels.

Awesome that you managed to come up with so many different games in one. The mood is quite good. The theme is restrictive in a way that everyone (well the games I played so far) are going with "thing happens every 10 seconds", this one at least makes a different thing happen every 10 seconds.

I looooooved the last few levels of the game. Only a little salty that I died from running off the screen when trying to get away from the flag LOL.

Does feel a little derivative of stuff like Warioware though, would liked to have seen something a bit more unique, or some other twist on the concept.

Fun game. Completed in a few attempts

Two things
the instruction are way to fast, it will be probably best to keep them on screen
the mix of mouse control and key control is confusing, and should be explained

Love the chasing flag :-D

Really great job. I love the "micro-game" compilations. I especially like the NOT ones. They ensure you are actually paying attention.

I loved the ones where you got creative with it. The flag chasing me down is what finally ended my run....
Great example of using megasimple mechanics to make a full experience, and snappy to boot!

Love the music . Love the pace of the game . Love the puzzle idea . The music , sound and need for fast adaptation of this game make me enter in a somewhat flow state where I just want to play again and again . Could have been nice to add high score or tier that you want to get past . To engage the player more toward a long terme goal and make him start again . Maybe with more time add evolutive music and graphic so the more you score the shinier it get to reward getting good . But love the game even in this state :)

Ha, this is both fun AND mean! :laughing: Click the button *exactly* 20 times while I am stressing over making the time limit? Cruel! I did manage to clear all 15 levels on my third run, so all in all you managed to balanced it
pretty well for how much time I usually hope to spend on a jam game.

The 'how to play' page could have included there was a WASD/SPACE portion to the game, that caught me off guard a little.

The art style is clear, though I wish there was a more pleasant palette used which would've elevated the look of the game a lot rather than having primary colors + grey on a black background.

All in all, a solid series of minigames, that doesn't stretch on for too long and lives in the Goldilocks Zone of stress and enjoyment!

Fun challenge. I do think some early challenges could do with some changes, like the "Don't reach the flag", but otherwise it's completely fine and great to play.

Very funny game, which reminded me a lot of the WarioWare games. Great job! I especially liked some of the later puzzles, like the flag chasing you or clicking the button exactly 20 times :D I just wish there would be more levels.

An interesting concept, but the execution leaves a bit to be desired. Most of the minigames were rather basic, which would not be a problem if they were at all randomized and not just the same over and over. The inclusion of "Don't do anything" ones was interesting, but they could have been less frequent. The graphics leave a lot of headroom for improvement open and were more utilitarian than aesthetically pleasing. The music, while certainly not awful, was too loud for comfort and could have used some variety. However, the concept of minigames changing, and the minigames themselves are a great start for future expansion.

Some fun mini-games! Got tricked by the 'get caught' one and ended up just jumping my flag off the right side of the screen :D

Would be good to have a little bit more randomness in the games. Having the answers in the same place limits the replayablility a fair amount, but was fun anyway.

Great entry!

Really good game! reminds me of old flash games. A really good use of the theme that is quite humorous! the later minigames are just simple enought that you can understand them but also not too simple that its incredibly easy (unlike the 2 waiting ones).

The game's 2 "dont do x" minigames are really boring. Waiting is always a bad game mechanic, so something else in their place would have been appreciated.

Nice BGM. I was having a terrific time until the last level that destroyed my streak. Effing flag :(
Had fun, very good reusing of assets to make a lot of minigames. Well done!

Fun and simple, I really like that you put in a bunch of different minigames that don't repeat and didn't take the "easy route" of a few repeating randomly

It has an old school, flash game feel to it definitely. I can think myself playing something like this in the early 2000s. So bonus points for the nostalgia effect!

There has been quite a few "1 minigame every 10 seconds" games during this jam. The selection of minigames in this game is on the simpler side but I also think it gives the game more unique feel to it. As I said, this game feels the closest to those old minigame collections of the 2000s.

There are some minigames that are probably a bit outdated in today's standards though. The "do not click this" type of games belong in the "ha ha" category in my book. They also require the player to wait for the timer to expire which really breaks the flow of the game.

I also found a bit weird that each there are minigames that require the player to use different control schemes. The game was flowing well when played with the mouse and then I suddenly learn that directional keys need to be used in the next minigame. I would prefer to stick with either mouse or directional keys for the whole game.

But overall, thanks for the nostalgia trip! Great work!

I found it light-hearted and up-beat with the music. Some of the puzzles weren't easy to solve because having to use the AD keys wasn't clear for the movement puzzles. The shape sequence puzzle also doesn't have a pattern to recognize so I had to try it each time with one I didn't try last time to get past it.

It was nice to play a game that was bug free. Good job coming up with all the different game mechanics in the limited time frame, good game.

Man, there are a few games I've seen following the WarioWare template. But WarioWare usually does better with a life system, so you have some leeway to learn the games before having to start all over again. And it would be good if the puzzle levels (like the Simon level) were randomly picked instead of the same each time. That said, I do like me some WarioWare, and there were some creative games in there. Nice work!

Great game. Really fun to play and lots of unique and different puzzles which was nice, but also all of the puzzle bot more advanced and clever. It was a nice length too, I got caught out a few times and was eager to to keep playing but it never got frustrating to replay the levels because there wasnt too many

I like the music and the vibe. I wish some of the puzzles were harder. Bug: Clicking the next shape puzzle didn't respond to my choice. Fun little game. Good job.

Very fun to tackle! Would be perfect if the "waiting" ones only take a few seconds to finish, rather than forcing the player to wait for the full 10sec. Also I apparently can walk off the platform as the flag, thus soft locking myself. Is this intentional? If it is, maybe a more specific death condition would clear things up?

@shadowcast Nice spot with the flag-off-screen bug, I've just fixed that issue and will push an update to itch after this jam has ended. Thanks!

I liked how the entire art style worked together, the audio was great for the game as well! Nice small concept with a lot of variety for such a short jam! Overall really good! I was a bit confused with the flag levels at first when I didn't realize that I was supposed to use my keyboard as well but once I figured that out it was not too hard nor too easy!
LDJam user 272447

I enjoyed this a lot, one of the most simply fun games I've played. Really nice to see this different approach to the theme. Some good variation in puzzle types and some randomization definitely makes this work. I tried a few times and couldn't get past the flag chasing me - that one seemed a big jump in difficulty. A bit more randomization in the other ones (such as the colour sequence or flag positions) would have added to the replayability massively, and a bit of polish wouldn't go amiss but you made a fun game and that ain't easy!
Dining Philosopher
10. Oct 2022 · 14:13 UTC
Good Wario Ware, I especially enjoyed the "controlling the flag" level. Difficulty is all over the place though, and as others said, randomization of some puzzles would make it better.
unless games
10. Oct 2022 · 17:54 UTC
Fun take on the theme! Simple but effective.

I can only repeat the others that you should randomize the levels a bit to make it more replayable, for example the level where you have to pick the yellow square could place it at any of the positions, or better yet, have the target shape and color be randomly picked as well, so sometimes it is a red triangle, other times a blue square, most of the levels could be expanded upon this way.

Anyways, good job!

Great variety of puzzles! It would have been nice to have some kind of checkpoints, so you don't have to keep replaying all the old levels if you mess up on the new ones (especially if you keep adding more levels in a post-jam version). Graphics were simple but clean, and the music fits the game really well. Nice work!

Pretty easy game to get the hang of, and fun to work through a few times. I didn't appreciate that I lost when I ran off the screen, but there wasn't much of a time loss. Nice work on coming up with the different mini-games.

Unrelated, I just saw your Signals game on Itch. It looks like you have the mini-games-bundle approach nailed down!
