4th LD compo entry, great time as always! This time I picked an idea that was a little more narrow in scope, and felt like my scheduling was much better this time around. I also tried to take the game art in a direction that's uncomfortable to me. Not happy with it yet, but there is improvement I believe. Overall happy with the way things turned out, the polygon math is working as expected (mostly, bugfixed a bug that I was not able to reproduce, best type), I feel like I was able to "finish" within reason, and enjoyed doing a style of game that was new to me. If I had more time, I would have liked to make a more cohesive "end" to the game, like some results screen, or anything other than a game restart...
Note: I felt weird using the music that I didn't make myself, it was made using a generator (which the rules advised was allowed/"encouraged"). From my research, this generator is legitimate. Info found here: http://www.jacoballred.com/free-stuff/fake-music-generator/ If I actually am somehow violating any rules, someone please let me know so I can take necessary actions.
Neat little game. I hit a wall at some point and wasn't able to get any stars, but I wasn't sure exactly why I was failing. Feedback would make it a little less frustrating.
A great idea executed pretty well. Haven't ever planned something like before. Not sure I'd call it fun, but worthwhile for a few minutes anyway. Graphics are done extremely well. I think some tutorial would have been nice, the first couple time playing I just let the scissors run straight up ;)
A really interesting, weird game. It's relaxing and fun on the one hand, quite tricky and amusing on the other. I laughed when I got my first angry customer; their angry expression and sudden music stop was well done.
Nice little game! Reminded me of the frog-dissecting in the game Bully(Canis Canem Edit). It works well, the graphics are pretty decent, but the game gets a bit boring after a while. Good job!

really hard when getting faster
music was really annoying after some time
The music fits in really well to bring this whole game together. Love it.
Good job!
