In PARTY ON! you are a employee of a club, where your task is to keep the party alive. You do this by playing music and keeping the guests satisfied.


The club is open from 1 AM to 6 AM, so
don't let the party die out, your job is on the line!


The game also features a Endless mode, if you just can't get enough of partying!

Great game! Love the dance music, I did find the it hard to read the instructions! The text was slightly distorted for me. Overall, greatjob!

This is a fun idea for the theme! Really nice to play something fun and silly. I couldn't read the writing very well when it first started up to tell you how to play. I'm not sure if it has maybe become stretched when put to fullscreen. I was able to figure out how to play anyway! :D

I jumped pretty bad when the game started due to the loud volume haha. It was a fun game! There is a lot going on. The graphics are cool and the music was great! Good job

I liked the audio. The music was fun and the concept of the melody volume going down when you are away from the decks was interesting. I liked the pacing. The gameplay started getting more interesting when more people were introduced. Party on guys!

I really liked the audio and gameplay, idea is pretty cool, but at first i thought i have to press those drinks logo on vending machine, not buttons to get the drinks, Really liked how audio changes when you increse party alivness, also screen shake was pretty cool, and lights changing over time, difficullty was pretty good, but could be a bit harder (i like hard games, probably you could just add hard mode) you could make peapole on the dance floor actually dance, instead of just standing, also garphics could be improved

very creative take on the theme 'keep it alive', and also fun game! I like the concept of 'aliveness', i should have a bar like this at my own parties haha. well done!

pretty good gameplay for a jam. its fun despite the aesthetic being rough around the edges. also, i think i know why the dj/bartender/managers eyes were so open.

Cool idea! The gameplay was simple and easy to understand which is great for a jam game. For improvements you could have animated the party goers a little and the art looked a little roughly imported. Other than that good job!

* @robstao Thanks! I believe instructions are made this way to fit graphics, but tbh it is quite easy even without them :)
* @louiejams, @dianacalistru, @shayan-ebz78 thanks!
* @rigdonware , @patsui thank you for feedback!
* @whitefox , @noeloskar , @ahanabunozor , @teamnova thanks! I believe music came out... fitting this game :) And from very beginning I was thinking of putting different melodies, so crowd can ask for exact song, but it would have been too complicated, so we decided to do it this way, and it was easiest way to sync them: we just used two layers of music playing simultaneously, so the basic music plays with 100% volume, and strong beat plays with 0% and increases when DJ plays.

This was definitely enjoyable! It was a nice touch having the main character bounce around, you definitely should have implemented that into the crowd as well.

I did find the setting a bit odd though, if the vending machine and toilets are at the side of the dance hall, why does the DJ need to go out to get drinks and toilet paper for people?

@gamepopper so you ask these questions, but you are okay with the fact, they need toilet paper at dancefloor? ;)
RaccoonLudos22 Apr 2020, 22:22
I really like your game, and create take on theme, but other characters should dance as well you even have some animation for this from the wining screen)

Really fun take on the theme here, reminds me of our LDJAM44 entry in a very good way :smiley:.
The wiggly dance animations from the ending screen would have been nice during gameplay as well.
I liked the music and the way you introduced some visual variation time after time.
What bothered me was the rather unreadable tutorial font, maybe go for a higher resolution with that.
I just can't get my head around what the dancers are doing with all that toilet paper :tongue:.
In the end, I really enjoyed your game. Great job!

Nice idea for a game and nice execution. A little more animations would have done wonders for this game. Nice submission.
Vertuga3224 Apr 2020, 18:33
Not bad! At first I thought it was too easy. But I liked playing a little longer.)

Keep the party alive! This game is so fun, and I love the music. It's hectic trying to play the music and keep everyone happy at once. I love the silly animations and it is very satisfying to DJ. I haven't quite made it to the end of the night, but I will try again soon.

Bringing Toilet paper to the dance floor was um... filling me with disturbing thoughts that the dance floor might be slippery and not a fun place to be but I guess that was the point. I Would have thought if you needed other party supplies it would just be a candy vending machine or photo booth props.

I like how the spotlights and other club changes happened through the night, nice feel good feedback about progress.

great game, i like it, as someone said before the instructions were not very readable.

the sound is very good and fits perfectly.

the art style also fits well

tech note: i played on linux using wine. it worked good

Nice balance for the gameplay. I love the interpretation of the theme !

Really Nice!
I love the take on the "Keep it Alive theme" The game is easy to understand and play, but maybe one improvement might be to add some more obstacles as the game progresses, like maybe a "Party pooper " for lack of better word joins the party and you have to kick him out... I don't know :/
Overall great game for 72 hrs!
JamJar27 Apr 2020, 14:25
Cool game! I really like how the larger the bar the more layers of music are playing. The art style of the character in the main menu is scary and I love it! One issue is that you can just stay at the DJ table and hold e and you cant loose as you replenish the party quicker than people can damage it. Overall I love it and want to see more of this smiley DJ!

Nice audio, nice idea. Spotligth enjoyable and feeling at the party.
I didn't understand how to use the vending machine or bring toilet paper, so I just stay at the music pushing down the E button and guess what I win. I try to click the vending machine or push E near the vending machine. Maybe someone could explain how to use the vending machine or bring toilet paper.
Anyway cool idea, audio, and this world need more party.

@r2d48 It is explained in the tutorial. You need to click the small blinking buttons on the vending machine when standing close. Thank you for playing the game!
