I’m not sure if you were able to see it, but I played your game on my stream at https://www.twitch.tv/saoigames tonight. I got stuck on one of the doors with the green fill bars.

Overall it was an interesting idea to combine idle game with dungeons puzzles.

Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for trying out my game on your stream @saoi-games, it is much appreciated! It was really fun seeing you figuring out the puzzles. And you were so close solving the one with the three green bars! :)

Hahaha. This is a really funny take on the theme, these are definitely incompatible genres. Great idea and well-executed. Good job.

This was really great little puzzle game, and loved the music. For some reason the game felt a bit long, even though it only took me about 10 minutes to fish the game. But overall a very well made game.

Nice idea, nice game and finished in 10 minutes. It was fun to solve the puzzles and the idle part of the game was fun, too :)

Cool game. I also finished in like 10 minutes. It's somehow a really relaxing game and I really enjoyed playing it. The music is also great and the texts are funny. It's a totally well executed combination.

This was really pleasant to play, and it was a super unique mashup as well. I found that I had an OBSCENE amount of keys after a bit and just slammed through the last doors. I also thought that the typing bit was a risky play. Was it case sensitive...? Maybe leave a hint there for people who can't get it after a while? Anyway, this was a great little game. Good work!

Took just over 9 minutes to finish it. Got stuck on the "Type Here!" door for longer than I probably should have. I imagined it would be a play on words or something. The music is rather soothing while waiting for keys to generate an what not.

Great use of the theme. This was really fun to play. I liked the addition of the puzzles every so often to keep things fresh. I managed with a time of 7:29. Great job!

This game is very addictive!! I didn't know what to expect with the combination of generes you picked , but im very suprised. The game is fun, entertaining and i love the mechanics, my favourite part is the puzzle to open the doors. You made a good design and usage of mechanics, congrats. The music fits perfectly and it's very relaxing. The art of the door is good, but i would like to see more if it in the other UI elements since their art style doesnt match with the doors

Enjoyed this game a lot, gonna try to beat our time. Gotta peck those lock faster! Puzzles were good, the hit me ones had us quacking up. Only critiques are the timer doesn't reset after game complete (when you hit new game). Also the type here puzzle seems to be case sensitive. Thanks for the fun!

"Type here" got me for a while

aw boo... was having a lot of fun but got stuck on Type Here as well :(

Pretty good play on the idle theme. Maybe even using more "buildings" and sacrificing them could've been a cool path to take too

Best genre combination! Also a seriously good game, this is one of the best of the compo for me.

I gotta admit - right from the get-go, this google link puzzled me - I advise you to look into itch.io for next time - it's quick & easy, does the job and it's just a bit more conventional as a way to share your .zip or .rar to get people to try yout game, I guess.

Beyond that... it's a really fun game! A little escape room cookie clicker... Hell yeah! I enjoyed that! I got a score of 12:02 and that's about 10 minutes more I spent laying your game compared to the other games from the LD41 I've tested so far...

Well done m8, nice one :-D

Excellent idle game! Beat the game and it felt like it flew by. You should add an endless mode with more activities.

12:21. Yeah, that typing door stumped me too. Fixing case sensitivity might be a good call, I tried the correct entry several times but only got through it after I returned to take a look at these comments.

Mellow feels, serviceable art, nifty puzzles. It's a good game!

Very cool game, I don't really play idle games, but that one was fun. All the little puzzles where refreshing and I had fun reaching the end. There could be more variety in the key garden. Keep up the good work !

Really great game. The type here Puzzle took me a while but it is a word which was used before so it is possible. Also i like how well you mixed these two genres and the atmosphere created by this great Soundtrack. Overall a very enjoyable Experience.

Nice game! The music got a little repetitive, but I liked the variety of ways to open the doors. The typing one was a little frustrating, but over good job!
