Well, Mike ran in to problems getting ldjam.com working properly with about 12 hours left in the Compo, so this is the backup plan.

I really liked the point and click adventure feel to this game especially when you have to place objects correctly and combine two of them. I think you could have explored that part even more. Graphics were fine but collisions were a little strange overall. I hope this helps for your future projects, cool game :)
Heya, good game! it would be nice if you add some description about what should the player do in the game or something like that.
I love the art! Great feeling and mood. I was confused on how the tentacles worked, but managed to win anyway. Nice little puzzle at the end.
good pixel art, nice music, but need some tutorial to player know what to do
I wasn't really sure what the objective of this game was other than to collect the items scattered around the house. On one of my playthroughs, I made it to the room with the pentagram and I assumed that the items I collected were meant to be sacrificed here (since the room's only exit was blocked by the tentacles) but when I placed the items on the circle nothing happened? The only option was to stand around and wait for the tentacles to kill me, which was a pretty frequent occurrence for me in the game. I would go into a room to get an item only to have the exit get blocked off, forcing me to just wait until I died to start the game over again with my inventory empty.
However, the graphics looked great and the audio really set the mood!
Good idea for this game !
I found it a bit weird at first, don't understanding this tentacles things and how inventory was working (especially the fact that the bag contains all what you have previously collected).
But after thinking a bit I understood what I was asked for and it was pretty well done ! Music was also good !
Good job :)
Interesting game with solid graphics. It took some time to figure out what to do, and the frequency of death made it feel pretty repetitive, but a good submission overall.
euh.. confuse.. don't know what's going on but somehow i finish it haa. I enjoy it though.....
It took a few deaths, but I figured out what to do eventually :D
Cool looking game with music to match! Those darn tentacles aha, they don't like me moving plant pots.
oh! Nice! And it's also online! Can I find it on indiexpo? I'm making videos about the games of this Jam, but only about the games hosted also on indiexpo! Tell me if you will add it, so I can include it in my next video ;)
The cryptic instructions could have been a little LESS cryptic, haha, but I enjoyed having to figure out what to do. Sorry I was a bit slow! Adding some narrative and a few more puzzles could make this pretty neat and tight! Nice entry, thanks for submitting!
It took me a while to figure out the puzzle. Good game nonetheless
It was a bit stresful and rushed for a puzzle, but the mood was interesting. Whish there was more background story to it, but overall entertaining. The puzzle in the end was fun to play although pressing space from the midle of the star would have the character pick 2 to 3 items, it was confused until i realized it was not feedback message like "Hey these 3 items are wrong the rest are ok".
Cheers!
Unfortunately I didn't enjoyed it much because I couldn't figure out what to do. Anyway I appreciated the map and the fact that object are placed randomly each run. I had problems with collision boxes (I read others have too), at one moment I got stuck at the bottom of the first room, I couldn't move up any more.
Thanks for all the feedback! Let's give a little hint here: items are NOT placed randomly each run
You just saw me playing your game live. You can watch it again here: https://youtu.be/AAa6rb4l3oI
I completed it! It was a little hard to figure out I had a time limit with the tentacles, but once I did then it was fun solving the puzzle. The graphics and audio set a nice mood, I liked how I turned into a giant at the end :D

Cool art style. The music was interesting, but a little loud. I could not figure out what I was supposed to be doing, unfortunately.
