Jam Theme?
This game was made in 2 WEEKS for Doki Jam ... though I've used this homebrew engine in 2 jams before, and a bunch of stuff was kinda working.
The theme was CHAIN REACTION, which appears in two ways:
- During the final fight, the Boss will spawn bunny minions, which can spawn MORE, leading to a
CHAIN REACTION of badguys! Keep 'em under control! - At game end, Doki streams mad love and kindness, kicking off a
CHAIN REACTION of niceness. What are you waiting for?

Great work, team!
Lovely game, super aesthetic presentation and amazing music!
Great integration with the actual webpage! And that boss fight was fun! XD
I love the retro look and setup of the room :D the pixel art is fantastic too
Adorable <3
Awesome vibes with the old monitor and the graphics really throwback to those old times. Loved the isometric view too. I could imagine expanding on the idea by letting the player forget they're sitting in front of the console, like zooming into the screen after a while, then later on coming back to realizing it again.
The only small thing is the chain reaction theme was not so present in the gameplay.
But overall very cool game!
Immaculate vibes, amazing sound design, love the music. Was a bit confused in the beginning, but figured it out lol. Good game!
Yo, this one's pretty nice. You two cooked.
