Love the music, voiceovers and art. Difficulty seems to scale nicely.

I didn't expect so many minigames!

Really cool art and minigame ideas.

Btw, the main menu was brilliant :D I tried clicking first but the realized that I have to fly to the start "button" :D

Love the music and the voices introducing each minigames!
Really cool art! Very clear mini games and quite various as well!
And great idea for the start screen!

very well made! I love almost everything about this. Changing 'themes', the voice acting, the music, mix from picking and avoiding. Smooth controls.
not really innovative but you ticked all the other boxes.

You also want for some Warioware vibe, but did that better, love it!

Man, I can't believe a wario-ware-style game never crossed my mind, its a perfect fit. On top of that, you made it super-hero themed. Just an excellent job.

Special kudos for the audio. The music really fit the vibe well, and I am hoarse from laughing at the audio. Really well done.

Such a fun collection of games, it was really cool! The 10" counter was just perfect so that each new game felt fresh. I could easily imagine this as a local multiplayer game too, where party game modes change chaotically every 10". Really nice job!

Really loved the art work. And I also really liked how you used the red and green colors to show what we could and could not touch. Great way of teaching without just telling

This made me laugh. Great entry, right on theme. Some additional game mechanics could've been fun instead of only collecting stuff.

The music is great! and the voice acting really adds a lot.

The announcer is great I love the voice acting! I feel like he could have been a little louder relative to the music?

The art is so consistent and cutesy too.

lol gave it my best, the game gives an impression of being easy at the start but it gets really difficult at some point. I love the voice acting too lol. solid entry, I love it!

Thanks for all the nice messages, ideas and feedback all :smile:. Really glad that you liked the voice acting and that it made you laugh. Had a lot of fun recording that.

A very nice warioware-esque game, the audio and graphics are very well done. The minigames are simple but lots of fun. I would have preferred if for example shopping and all-you-can-eat would differ a little bit gameplaywise, for example by giving the player an intolerance for specific food. Aside from that I had a lot of fun (even though I didn't get any more than 11 points).
Also some more juice (screenshakes, particles etc.) when failing a level and local multiplayer would be great.

Very solid entry, I liked the progression of the difficulty and how it's decievingly easy at the beginning.

22 high score here, then all you can eat ate me alive.

Very fun games all around! My favorites were bullet hell and avalanche. I think you put some good thought in the overall game design too, like how things you can touch are green and stuff you can't touch is red, that made it very fast to pick up new game modes, that helped a lot, that was great. I also thought the theme was incorporated well, the 10 second length made for a quick game loop, while still leaving enough place for challenge. Loved the music too, it had that hero go-getter attitude. All in all a great job, well done!

Okay, the description of the game wasn't too good so I had low expectations but this turned out surprisingly fun. I got to 19 stages I think before Aliens spawned and I was in a corner and no way out lol. Excellent use of the theme, simple and straightforward controls, cute graphics, nice audio and voiceover, a very good entry! I lol'ed at Pizza Party!

This was really fun to play! The little touches are all great: title screen start, object outlines & timer warning ticks. Adorable art too, everything is so small :)

Really polished. Visuals and SFX are so cute. Maybe an in game visual timer would be good but other than that Great Job !

Woooow love this minigame format, and you had plenty! Seach a great entry, thanks, really enjoyed my time on it! The music is also very nice :)

This one is a really cool game, well polished. It's extremely fun and the difficulty spikes are cool. I lost at 13 because the delivery was impossible to achieve, but it's the only bad point i can see. Well done!
