Such a fun little photography game! My first thought while playing was: what if I had a net to catch all these little cuties and toss them into some kind of container? (?)

Lets say it was close the first time...
Lucky that the game was so fun, i wanted to play another round anyway! :D
Really love all the cure little critters!
And i got the SS grade in the end \o/
Great entry, enjoyed my time a lot!

I really enjoyed this game! Love the monster designs. I also liked how the assignments change each time I play.

A nice spin on Pokemon Snap: eight shots of film, clear assignments and a secret SS ending is a great little loop for a jam. The pixel art meadow and monsters are charming and the brief makes it instantly clear what to do. For me it was pleasant rather than gripping, a bit more surprise from the monsters or the meadow could make each run feel different. Cute entry, good job!

aah, a lovely entry here. Great music, tone and feel. Loved snapping and searching! A great little twist on a hidden object genre. Enjoyed this. Nice work.

Very relaxing and "zen" game with plenty of polish. I like the variety in the monsters and the photography mechanic is really lovely to interact with. Well done.

Great idea—I liked everything (and I rarely say that), but the game is in dire need of a meta layer.
In short, the game has cool potential. I’d love to see it evolve, because you can’t get by on this core gameplay alone.

Fun little game, I liked the art, what are the one-of-a-kind ?

Such a cute game, and the controls feel really nice! The only small thing is that restarting requires a keyboard press instead of a mouse click, but overall, really great work!

Really cute and relaxing game! I had a lot of fun exploring the meadow and trying to find all the different monsters. The photography mechanic feels great, and the pixel art fits the vibe perfectly. Awesome job!

The atmosphere created by the vibrant meadow mixed with the nostalgia of the old polaroid camera is wonderful. I really enjoyed the process of carefully framing shots and tracking down those unique monsters. A delightful little genre blend!

It reminded me of games from my childhood. Lovely pixel art and a variety of monsters. You simply need to complete tasks and take a photo. The limit on photos forces you to slow down so you don’t miss any unique monsters. No need to rush. А nice way to spend time! Thank you for your hard work!

Perfect game for a nice relaxation after a rough day! Love the atmosphere and just how lovely that game is!

Fun! Limited photos instead of limited time was a good choice!

Your game caught my eye back when you were posting the very first screenshots. I even followed you to make sure I wouldn't miss it! :D
Simple, charming, and really well done! One of the most relaxing games I've played in this jam.
I'd probably add a simple four-frame animation to the creatures. Actually, you could even make it modular — separate legs, arms, bodies, heads, and eyes. Combine those with different colors and patterns, and you'd have hundreds of unique little creatures!
Anyway, absolutely lovely game. I think this could easily grow into a fantastic little casual game to unwind with!

Lovely game! Cute monsters. The music energizes the play. I think on the other hand you could've leaned into the relaxed, calm ambience.
Good job!

Had a lot of fun playing it, unfortunately never got over the 6500 points but searching for the unique monsters was one of my favorite parts of the game 😄
Keep your good work up! Seen your progress every ld and you can see the improvement in your games
