Thank you for trying it :D

I'm hearing that the ring toss level is too difficult, so I might tone it down a bit later on.

Hey thanks :D

For anyone who tried it and thought the ring toss level was too difficult I've made it slightly easier.

A nice mix of the funny and the melancholic, interesting and punny take on the theme, and the audiovisuals are pretty cute. Good job!

Very nice game. The last part of each minigame was pretty hard, though.

Enjoyable mini games. Lot of effort went into making up the story and all the little details. Music was very good too! Awesome job :D

Really cute game. I seem to remember the first stage music from something, though.

Very cute, loved the story.
Hitting R on the second level seems to skip all the people though, and I get put through to level three.
Nice job, though (:

What a great concept (love the backstory)! The music is really fab too. I felt bad when I lost. :c

I like this game a lot. It's like wario ware with a back story. But it is quite hard.
The story is very nice and heartwarming.
The graphics are awesome, the music is adorable. Also the sounds are great.
Great job, it was really fun to play.

Awwh! Amazing game, and best use of theme I've seen! It took me a bit longer than it should have to figure out exactly what I was meant to be doing and when (on day 3 mainly) but I got through. Heartfelt! And lol at that guy with the ultra squished head, hah. I had to award you all 4-5/5's, and it's very rare that someone gets a 5/5 on anything from me, or that someone gets something in both 'mood' and 'humour'. Great job!

Well done, day 3 took me a while to complete. I really liked the story.

I like the music. Real sadness ensues when you lose :(

Nice entry. I kept failing on the strength test level so an immediate retry key would be good. Once you've read the game over screen, you don't read it again and you have to wait for the fade in/out. Music was really good! Well done. :)

I love your game! I really wanted the bats to succeed and stay together ^^" The story is superb and heartbreaking if you lose.

Balancing was okay, I failed the second and third day once each, so I would not say it was too difficult.

The scrolling speed of the credits is a bit too slow for my taste

It's taken me far too long to get around to playing this, but I'm glad I did! I love the chirpy, upbeat feel and the music reminds me of the Megadrive/Genesis synth chip in the best possible way. Brilliant reversal of the idea of winning a prize, that also fits the theme with a pun to boot. Difficulty ramps up nicely, also.

If I was to add anything, it would be a selection to be Jaden or John. It wouldn't do anything, but you could claim DOUBLE the playable characters =P
