this was fun! i had a nice time. i like the minimalistic style, it reminds me a lot of the first pokemon games :) not all games have to have some big picture. great job. i'm wondering if there are any secrets i missed out on?
Oh I always get sucked in by things with old school graphics! It felt a bit Harvest Moon-y at first, to the point I was half-expecting to be in the countryside when I first left my apartment!
But what a delight this game was, it's quirky, weird, odd and hilariously fun! The puzzle-solving aspects were nice and varied (from maze running to simply paying attention to visual clues!) and the whole nonsensical journey wraps up as expectedly as expected! Apparently expectedly isn't a word, but to hell with it, it is now!
Loved everything about this, a true one-off wonder! Keep up the awesome work =)
I definitely loved Harvest Moon back in the day together with Pokémon and Zelda, it's inspired by all of them in some way :) I'm really glad you enjoyed the nonsense and my sense of humor :D
Thanks again for playing and making the video! I'll sure make a "sequel" at some point ;)
This was such a nice game! It was a very fun experience! It was frustrating at times, but that's what drew me in. It was funny, cheesy (no pun intended), and entertaining. Keep up the good work!
I absolutely loved this game! It's my type of game and it's really hard to find games like these. Keep up the really good work, man! Can't wait to see other games you make in the future!! :)
Thank you. I think the game is cute and lovely. I don't think being short is a problem but I do feel frustrating about a few nonsense puzzles.(But as the title, maybe nonsense is your design purpose)
Yeah, that one was tough, And finding the machine behind the drawing make me feel unfair too. Maybe other puzzles do have the same problem at some level, but they are fun or make me get the humor some way. I think make it easier and more interesting would be the point.
BTW, I think it can have fans on steam as free game, or even with a price(maybe around 1$). The game provided me a pretty interesting 30-min experience at least, some will love to pay for that I think^_^
I thought that one was really obvious with there only be one place with a painting and fridge right next to eachother... I'm glad you did like the other ones :)
The game is actually "pay what you want" on here and amazingly some people were really generous! I might put it on Steam together with a sequel when that happens ;)
Thanks it was fun, i found the game on instagram :)
A little note : When you don't know the controls at first launch, you try SPACE bar or ENTER key to start the game but it doesn't work. I had to check on this page which key to hit.
also i donated, you should put this game on steam for like a little less than $1 imo :)
This Game was so Much fun to play. I loved the Pixel art style that is in the game. it also has the funny humour that can give a little bit of a laugh. I would love to play more of the games that you make in the Future.
Thank you so much for making this game, it's the small games like these that make me enjoy recording so much. It's one thing to play something you know will be well thought out and it's another things to look down into the smaller games that don't get enough spotlight. It wasn't to short it was a fun experience. (I think I got the majority of refrences by the way.)
It was really fun, I am hardcore fan of point&click games especially retro style ones. I loved everything about this game, from the references to the absurdity of it. Thank you for this little masterpiece !
Quite charming! I loved the graphics and the music. I particularly liked how new art assets kept showing up through the course of the game (and the animation was great too). It kept me going til the end, and I really liked the length! While it doesn't do a lot *new*, it certainly didn't waste my time, and I appreciate that. Kudos and I look forward to your next project!
Thank you very much for the nice feedback! Really happy you like the visuals, audio, animations and game length :) I definitely agree the gameplay mechanics are really simple but glad that didn't make it less enjoyable.
Thanks again! I can't wait to make something new :D
It's a rather cute game. I want to keep trying it, but my computer keeps shifting control from its window to something else. It's driving me crazy. I have two monitors in extended desktop mode. Maybe that's why. Kudos for making this game 32 bit compatible! I've tried other games on Itch.io and some are only in 64 bit mode, but they don't always say so. I'd be more inclined to buy games on here if I could tell which ones were available in 32 bit better. If you make a game that requires a cost, please indicate in the description if it comes in 32 bit. Itch.io doesn't seem to care if 32 bit OS users can figure it out or not, so it's apparently up to the individual developers to help us out.
That's really strange... Do you have this problem with any other Unity games?
Oh yeah the default setting in the build options of Unity is x86_64 but I felt like not everyone has 64 bit yet so I changed it :) I'll be sure to build for 32-bit as long as Unity allows it!
I've not had that problem with other Unity games, but then I haven't played a ton of them on my PC. I sure appreciate you making 32 gb builds. I'll probably have 64 bit OS eventually, but I'm holding out as long as I can.
I had so much fun playing this game. For anyone who grew up with a Gameboy in the 90's this game is a trip down memory lane. I love all the little references to classics of the past hidden through the story. I also love the funky retro beat. All around I loved playing this game and would welcome a follow up or more similarly retro games. Well done to the developer. If you want to see first hand what my experience was like you can check out my letsplay.
Thanks again for playing! Left a comment on YouTube :)
Really happy you liked the music, it was the first time I did the soundtrack for a game. Pixel art and retro style are definitely my thing so most if not all future games will similarly styled :)
Very satisfying experience!!! I wasn't expecting so much detail from it and I especially love the pace of the game where you can constantly feel progression. I love the concept but I feel there's so much potential based on the background of the game, and maybe by adding QTE, combat or other elements could spice things up a bit.
I really look forward to the sequal!
Have'nt played a game like this since Pom Gets Wifi :)
I'm not sure myself about things like QTE or combat in this type of game, it's more like a point & click adventure game that were popular back in the day. I'll sure make other type of games in the future that do include combat and other things ;)
Never heard of that game before but I'll check it out :)
This was a really entertaining little game. I just smiled when I jumped on the cheese like, oh wow I'm about to be-... yep. cheese. And who ate all the food?? The old man and you are the only ones on the floor hahaha.
I had so much fun playing this! A very short and sweet little game with a lot of personality jammed into every corner. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thanks a lot for playing and making a video! I'm really happy you enjoyed the game :) I'll watch it asap and leave a comment on the video itself with my thoughts.
The possible sequel will be longer and more like a full game but I'll see what I do for the pricing. I mostly want people to have fun so I love making free games but of course if I want to make game development more than just a hobby I have to think about funding more :)
I really liked this game. The style is a lot like that of the GameBoy, and the text box scrolling makes this more apparent. This is also the first game on the site that I've ever played.
I haven’t played Pokémon, but what it reminded me of was Link’ Awakening, most specifically “Wow, this looks really heavy, you won’t be able to move it with your bare hands!”
Oh yeah it's quite similar to Link's Awakening too and it's definitely one of my biggest inspirations! The jumping out of bed is also a bit of a nod to that game ;)
Btw, saw your review too. You can exit the game by pressing Enter to show the ingame menu and select Quit ;)
What an experience. The art style and the music brought me back to when I was a kid. The puzzles were interesting and a treat to figure out. Although some of the hints were a bit vague, but keeping the play area small helped me figure out the answers. This was a wonderful game and i'm glad I got the chance to play this. I am looking forward to a sequel and seeing the Magickey again. Best regards mate keep up the good work.
Thanks again for playing! I left a comment on the video itself. If I make a sequel I'm sure the Magickey will be back and hopefully he'll be in a good mood again ;)
Nailed the Gameboy style. Was fun and hilarious. Just a thing: The secret code part seems like a bit hard/unfair as someone already suggested. Actually the "getting a pizza" part could apply the same argument...
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked the style and my absurd sense of humor :)
Yeah, that part was a bit confusing, the "man browsing a bookshelf" on the painting was the clue but the problem is that you got the hint before knowing what you needed it for... I felt like the pizza part was easy though I could've been a bit more clear by letting the player say if maybe they can order one somehow though that might be too obvious.
I'm really glad you liked that tune :D It's my first time making the soundtrack of a complete game! Hmmm... maybe? :O
The telephone guide was, probably, the first thing you interact with in the game. This leads to a situation in which you don't remember it enough to associate it with Pizza delivery, but if you say something like "If I could order it somehow..." it would be totally clear.
What if... when the player interacts with the telephone guide the first time, lists some of the phones in it? Like... "A telephone guide, hm... plumber... food... mom.... but I don't even have a telephone."

It's a nice game, but it's too short
Thanks! I'll make sure the sequel is longer ;)
Wow! I really enjoyed the game, it was random, weird and fun. I loved the style and different color schemes. Can't wait for more! :)
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed the randomness :P Can't wait to work on a sequel!
that was some really good game :-D
Looking forward to a sequel! :-)
Thank you very much! I'm sure I'll make one some day :)
this was fun! i had a nice time. i like the minimalistic style, it reminds me a lot of the first pokemon games :) not all games have to have some big picture. great job. i'm wondering if there are any secrets i missed out on?
Thank you very much for the nice comment!
It's definitely inspired by the first Pokémon games on Game Boy ;) I totally agree!
Not really secrets but there are a lot of references/Easter eggs in the game. There's a list of them in the devlog section :)
That..was...something..fresh:)..really...enjoyed..it
Thanks a lot for playing and making the video!
I love this game for how silly and random it was, one second you're a cat, another you're a mouse, then you're a piece of CHEESE???
4.8/5
Thanks a lot for playing! I'm really happy you enjoyed the randomness :D

Thank you very much for playing and the nice words! :D
Very beautiful game. It was fun playing this.
Loved the art style, animations, story, sounds and music.
Rated 5 stars! Well done Siegfried!
Thank you so much for the nice feedback! It really means a lot :D
I absolutely loved this game! It's my type of game and it's really hard to find games like these. Keep up the really good work, man! Can't wait to see other games you make in the future!! :)
Thank you so much! Pixel art and retro is definitely my style so all my future games will be like this ;)
Dude, awesome! The fact of being able to interact with everything was very cool.
" SPOLIER"What happens if I change my PC's date in that scene?Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it :)
Absolutely nothing... :X
Thank you. I think the game is cute and lovely. I don't think being short is a problem but I do feel frustrating about a few nonsense puzzles.(But as the title, maybe nonsense is your design purpose)
Good work and plz make more games^_^
Thanks a lot! Yeah, some of the puzzles could use better hints. Especially the search for the pin code. Which others did you have trouble with?
I sure will! :D
Yeah, that one was tough, And finding the machine behind the drawing make me feel unfair too. Maybe other puzzles do have the same problem at some level, but they are fun or make me get the humor some way. I think make it easier and more interesting would be the point.

also i donated, you should put this game on steam for like a little less than $1 imo :)
Thank you so much for playing and donating!!!
Yeah, the controls aren't the best, I'll make sure to include an ingame screen in my next games that show the controls the first time you play.
What's your username on Instagram?
my username is "wwhatevv". Congratz again on this very cool game !
Just played your game and here is my verdict (drumroll) 100000/10! cant express enough happiness paying!
Music: Awesome
Looks amazing!
And I always chuckled to myself when a video game reference was made!
Perfect!
But, sadly, now your OBLIGATED to make another game in the same format with the Magikey. The people demand it!
Haha thank you so much! I'm so happy you love all of it :D
I don't see that as a sad thing, I'll gladly make a sequel and the Magickey will definitely return ;)
Thats good... goooooooood >:3
Thanks again for playing! Really happy you loved the pixel art and found it funny :)
I'll sure be making more in the future!
Thanks again! I wrote a comment on the video itself :)
Cute video thumbnail too, btw :D
I really enjoyed this game! Are you gotta make a part 2?
Thank you very much! I have a lot of ideas for a "sequel" so I'm sure it'll be made eventually ;)
It was really fun, I am hardcore fan of point&click games especially retro style ones. I loved everything about this game, from the references to the absurdity of it. Thank you for this little masterpiece !
Thank you so much for the nice feedback! I also loved point & click games back in the day and still do :D
This was deliciously strange in all the right ways. Lots of fun!
Thanks again for playing! So happy you enjoyed it :)
A very interesting game. It's weird in a good way. I recomand it!
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked the weirdness :D
Quite charming! I loved the graphics and the music. I particularly liked how new art assets kept showing up through the course of the game (and the animation was great too).

it's an AWESOME game. i found three easter eggs, looking forward for a sequel or something \ (-◡•) /
Thanks a lot! There are definitely quite some references and Easter eggs in there ;)
I'dont undestand the control
They are explained on this page ;)
Thanks again for playing! Left a reply on YouTube too :)
I grew up with the first generation of Pokémon and Zelda Link's Awakening so those sure were big inspirations for the graphics!
Very satisfying experience!!! I wasn't expecting so much detail from it and I especially love the pace of the game where you can constantly feel progression. I love the concept but I feel there's so much potential based on the background of the game, and maybe by adding QTE, combat or other elements could spice things up a bit.

Maybe the evil management ate all the food :o
I had so much fun playing this! A very short and sweet little game with a lot of personality jammed into every corner. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thank you very much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the game :)
I definitely put a lot of work in it and I'm glad it shows!
Really Enjoyed the game. So much gameboy nostalgia
Thanks a lot for playing and making a video! I'm really happy you enjoyed the game :)
I'll watch it asap and leave a comment on the video itself with my thoughts.
I really can't wait for the next game I will be on the lookout.
Thanks for playing and no worries about the audio issue :)
That. Was. Awsome. Well done Siegfried! More please.
Thanks a lot for the kind words! Can't wait to watch your playthrough :D
i loved this a lot!!
very creative and fun, i would pay for a full version totally.
Thanks a lot!
The possible sequel will be longer and more like a full game but I'll see what I do for the pricing. I mostly want people to have fun so I love making free games but of course if I want to make game development more than just a hobby I have to think about funding more :)

Thanks a lot! The text scrolling is definitely based on how it was done on the Game Boy, in Pokémon to be specific ;)
I feel honored my game is the first one you played here! :D
I haven’t played Pokémon, but what it reminded me of was Link’ Awakening, most specifically “Wow, this looks really heavy, you won’t be able to move it with your bare hands!”

Btw, saw your review too. You can exit the game by pressing Enter to show the ingame menu and select Quit ;)
Thanks! I noticed after I beat the game. I told some friends about the game and I’ll let them know if they decide to play it. :)
Thanks a lot for that!
What was the old version of the game like? (The one for Ludum Dare 35)
It's called Oh What a Night :)
Thank you!
What an experience. The art style and the music brought me back to when I was a kid. The puzzles were interesting and a treat to figure out.

What if... when the player interacts with the telephone guide the first time, lists some of the phones in it? Like... "A telephone guide, hm... plumber... food... mom.... but I don't even have a telephone."
Some people actually got it right away, it's a bit of a set up and pay off. I do think it could be fixed by adding that part to the dialog :)
I don't think that would help much unless you add "pizza delivery service" to it but I like the fix above more.
Very creative! Love it!
Thanks a lot!
Thank,s for this short but nice game!
I am honored to support you!

Thank you SO much for the download donation!!! It really means a lot!
Good thing you mentioned "Fir3" or I wouldn't have known it was you :)
