I’ll just review all the games, shouldn’t be too long-

Too confusing, couldn’t play:

  • Minecraft winter drop (Great art, but can’t figure out the controls)
  • Woodland (Resembles minesweeper, but I keep accidentally blowing up everything!)
  • Dance Dance Resurrection (Dance for your LIFE. Great premise, great art, but the bugs make it un-winnable!)
  • Your Valley (Points don’t collect, unplayable)
  • Melon Simulator (Could only buy negative amounts of melons)
  • Maze 3D testaaa

Short and sweet:

  • Makecode flight sim
  • Cat diary
  • Food Frenzy
  • Stones vs New Years
  • Rocky Beaches
  • Fireplace collector
  • Little problem
  • Monochrome
  • Chrisma
  • The Adventure of Kevin
  • Fishing Frenzy
  • Campfire and Ghost
  • Cozy Monkey Jump
  • Rain (@CHEZMAN !! ADD AUDIO!! IT’S THE BEST PART OF RAIN!)
  • Train
  • Floppy Bird
  • Make a Snowman
  • Collect the Presents
  • Burger Time
  • Highway Maniac (Not sure how this is cozy, your goal is to run over demons)
  • Cozy train sim (oddly similar to ‘train’)
  • Mail Bird Co
  • Space Quest
  • Cozy Farming
  • Just fishh

Longer / more in-depth:

  • Sleeper’s study guide (Like Cookie Clicker!)
  • Antistress (Great premise!)
  • The Frosted Path (Long stories!)
  • The Ultimate Quest For A Single Slice Of Delicious Pizza (Relatable)
  • Christmas Cozy Game Jam (Great art, like candy crush!)
  • Paint (paint)
  • Lets go Gardening (Cute art!)
  • Cozy lil cookie maker (Cute art and they look delicious)
  • Cozy Cooking (Like those aesthetic animated cooking videos)
  • FISHE (Monstrosity fishing)
  • Minnie Mouse (I don’t know Spanish, but it was really cute!)

Really nice:

  • Quest for the lost water bucket (Great dialogue!)
  • The Joy Of Pixels (Painting simulator :slight_smile: )
  • The Picnic Basket Cafe (TONS of dialogue and storylines!)
  • Ripple nursery (FISHES!!! SO CUTE!! Very nice art)
  • Games by the fire (TONS of games to play!!)
  • Rythm Code (It’s like rythm heaven! SUPER great art and music! Obviously, bc it’s invalidproject… I’m biased- my character dragondog’s in it XD)

Winning shot:

  • The Forest Campfire (ADORABLE art! Cryptids! Dialogue! They literally put a mod in the game, how could it not win?)

WHEW! That was a LOT more than I expected, but now lets see what the mods end up picking… are my predictions correct!?

Sorry that you weren’t able to get auto, i remember making it a 1/50 chance, and also the lures sadly only double the score you have, not increase the rarity :[ BUT I AM HONORED TO GET AN A+++++ FROM THE CREW o7

One more announcement!

At the end of the livestream today, I realized that one game was missing from our list that I had really enjoyed playing but somehow slipped through the cracks in our list of honorable mentions. I’m not sure how this happened, frankly, because this is a game that easily deserves to be among the list of honorees.

@randomuser I am terribly sorry that we skipped your game today! This is 100% my fault! You are in the honorable mention list and your game will be added to the homescreen as well. Also, we will play your game at the beginning of our next livestream, I promise!

Seriously, if you haven’t had the chance to play @randomuser 's “duck house: quake” game, do yourself a favor and play it RIGHT NOW. It’s amazing!

Also, I will be making changes to our judging process going forward to make sure this doesn’t happen again. Once again, I am very, very sorry for the error!
