Really cool sfx and art, it makes for a great aesthetic. The gameplay is frustrating but addicting!

Hey, I really like the aesthetic of your game. As for the game itself, I've liked how you implemented different mechanics on each level although I found the balloon rather confusing.

@vitor-figueredo Thanks! Yeah, the balloon game was the most rushed of the games, and I would've really liked to have spent more time on improving the current games and even adding more, but I ran into some major UI issues and had to get those fixed.

@epiccrownking I see, it is a bit confusing but nonetheless great game! Also, I forgot to mention, the audio feedback, especially on the first mini game is great. Keep up the good work!

I liked the game a lot, there's a great level of intuitivness and polish for the compo!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA i'm so mad yet i keep playing. I can't make it past the third one but if i had the patience i'd probably keep playing for a while. I love the art style though. Good work!

I was unable to pass the first folder and could not get past the first part. The game art is quite good, and what I saw of the concept is good. It is just a bit too hard to get going in it.

@scidev Thanks! Yea, I used a bad variable to reference for time and when porting from Unity to WebGL I had to mess with timing, in the final build when I was preparing for upload I realized that the third wheel in the first file was waaaay too fast. In hindsight I should've gone back and slowed all 3 down a bit more.

This game has a good amount of challenge! Nice theme implementation.

This was quite entertaining to play. I love how I started by not reading most files but by the end I was reading and memorizing every word because the game seemed to want me to. And thank goodness it made me do that - the files were quite funny!

Who doesn't love a good warioware-like minigame collection. I had a hard time getting past the first game for a little bit but then I figured it out and got a couple of more games deep before my rapid clicking on the hot air balloon made me miss click a file and get put back to layer one. Very fun.

Love the mini games and I could see the inspiration behind them! Only 2 gripes with them though. first, some felt a little Twitchy and finicky. i.e the alignment game seemed to sometimes not like my click even though I'm pretty sure it was timed well. Second, the lack of knowing/ practice of the game meant I kinda was screwed on the first play of each game and was doomed to go back to the start. Over all though I really like it and live the mouse only inputs! Good job man!

Excellent! Why submit one game when you can submit 5?

Tiny gripe, after playing the balloon mini game, I immediately clicked which knocked me out of the whole system.

The sound design is nice, but I'd like some background music.

All in all I would love to see this idea expanded on. It's really fun! Great work!

A very fun game ! Very intuitive mini game tough the balloon one was a little too sensitive at the start when going out of screen.

Nice game, was actually curious what challange will I encounter on the next layer. Loved the game aesthetics and sound fx!

Cool idea and well polished (except the spinning game was frustratingly fast :D). Good job

Original take on the theme, and well performed idea. Good job!

I loved the frustration and the wario like feeling. I can see it on a DS easily.
Fun, tricky and keep you on your toes.

Wow multiple games into one. Excellent stuff. Hard but not hard enough to quit. Took some time to get the idea of the folders. Job well done!

I felt ir was too punishing for failing, but overall the whole sequence was fine. Good use of the theme.

Cool atmosphere and nice small game. A bit annoying to redo them repeatedly, but I have to blame myself - I didn't carefully take note of the founding of our glorious company. Nice job!

feels like i'm back in elementary school playing the impossible quiz lol. love the concept of this weird ass confidential-but-open(?) file system. super frustrating having to redo everything again, but for some reason, i felt compelled to see it through. i think that's because it's not that difficult and there's a clear end in sight. great job :)
