Gacha May Cry by Rojoin

[raw]
made by Rojoin for Ludum Dare 55 (JAM)

¿Are you ready to step into the world of Gacha May Cry?

Experience a side scrolling 2D gacha adventure where hilarity knows no bounds!

Join our spirited witch, known affectionately as "Gacha" as she embarks on a quest through various levels, facing obstacles in her search for her beloved husbando.

But here's the twist: instead of relying on her magical abilities, you must utilize our ultimate credit card simulator within the "Calderowo" to summon assistance to overcome each challenge.

Will Gacha succeed in reuniting with her husbando before her debts spiral out of control? Will you resist the allure of addictive gambling?

Dive into the whimsical world of "Gacha May Cry" to find out!

CONTROLS:

Use "A" and "D" or the arrow keys to move arround!

The artwork is beautiful! I did run into some issues with the UI where it wasn't scaled correctly. This led me to not being able to choose a hero at the start of the game, accidentally clicking the "Quit" button on the main menu, and not being able to advance further into the game.

Think I got stuck on a bug. Couldn't swipe the credit card and leave that scene. Happened twice. The art is lovely though!

Played this while doing my daily grind in favorite mobile gacha. The feels! Hit way too close to home.

The art is so beautiful, loved the style, especially the color palette! I hope Lauti and Messi play this game, they will love it

If anybody has any trouble sliding the card due to withdrawal shakes or dopamine depletion, after the sixth or so attempt the Game gets power of attorney and gets in touch with your bank. It's all in the EULA on the other side of the card that you agreed upon by mousing over it.

A gacha for "summoning" game jam? Wait, that's smart xD
Really liked all the little references here and there. Also, very realistic representation of my luck in gachas.

The design of this game is really pretty, great colour use! I liked the "Thanks to RNG" line. The drawings of every random character are fantastic and very entertaining.

Perfectly adapted, a little repetitive but that's what you expect from a gacha. A little lacking in something to draw the player into this world but an excellent experience. Thanks to you and keep up the good work!

Funny gacha parody and cute visuals. Would have been nice if I could swipe as much as here in other gacha games. :laughing:

I rated this 5 across the board, not just because it has polished graphics and gameplay, but is also incredibly satiric of the whole gacha system that's been milked to death.

This game is SOOO funny, the Messi joke killed me, I couldn't stop laughing for a good 2 minutes. I hope this wins in the humor category cuz it deserves it!!

It's also awesome to see all these people collaborate together to make this, I assume everyone came with their own artstyle and added jokes to this, it's cool to see all the different elements coming together!

Amazing entry, didn't expect to find a game this funny but here we go. Congrats to the team for the effort!

Managed to get the ultimate husbando!
It was hilarious and also made me sad for people who went down the rabbit hole of gacha games.

The art is top notch too, great job!

This is a hilarious concept, but I got lost trying to play through it, couldn't seem to understand what was going on with the gameplay.
It's too bad, I really enjoyed the humor and the plot idea, but I eventually got stuck on the "credit card denied" screen with no back button and I'm pretty sure I am missing out on some stuff, I don't think that's the end of the game...(I was basically still on the first screen rolling gachas haha)

I was hoping someone would make a gacha simulator. :)

The credit card swiping was a bit too easy to mess up and it took me a while to even realise I have to summon again without any summons left to even get to the screen. ^^; Cute as heck though, love the art!

Visuals are charming, but I failed to move through the first quest :( No idea how to achieve a bridge. I rolled gacha few times but nothing happened.

Loved the idea, laughed out loud way too much at this! Very creative use of the theme, and lots of great art throughout the game! I went into too much debt playing this game though now what do I do??

I do not know what to say. The art is good and the animations too. But implementation and gameplay... To put it mildly, it turned out to be very weak. I'll get tired very quickly if I list all the problems, xDD. And you probably see them yourself. Overall it was still a pleasure to play this game and good luck to you all in your future projects!
