Great game, definently worth the money! id say its worth more than 1$ tho. Anyways i really liked how the shared the same universe with TBMKZ so it was cool to see thoose characters here.😊 Is it possible you could send me the 3d model for Rex? I want to 3d print him and have him on my desk. Its not that important and i understand if you got better things to do. 

Keep up the good work!

I really enjoyed it! I'm bad at following directions, so I first missed that, but overall, I really enjoyed it! As always, I love your games and can't wait to see who we get to meet next!

You just keep them coming man and I'll keep displaying your amazing work to anyone who will watch! Loved the Alchemy style mechanics for this one, Super neat!

Hi!!! I love your games soooo much and I want more people to know about you, but I'm from russia and many people here don't like to play in games in English. Soon I want to learn how to translate games, and I want to ask permission to translate your games. So, what do you think? I don't need monetize for it, just for lern something new and for fun. And I do not promise anything, because I'm not sure that I will be able to quickly learn even the basic levels of programming, but I still really wanted to ask your permission for the future

Super comme toujours !!

I finally managed to buy this. I got a job recently so I have money to afford this now lmao. This was so much fun I loved it, I recorded it of course. You're my favourite dev, you just do your own thing.

Apologies for the extremely late reply on this one.
Thank you very much for purchasing the game, and best of luck on your work!

Wassup Zed

Great Game AS ALWAYS.  Sorry I'm a little late. Really enjoyed this one. Can't wait to see whats next! :)

A fair amount of reading and dialog? That is the scariest thing I could think of T^T

Woah, this one's a fair bit more difficult and really caught me off guard at times! And an angler fish character is super unique, this one's excellent!

This was pretty good. I kinda made a few mistakes and the world was devoured by this fish lol. Check out the video!

Maybe there should be the bit more know 3

dude my game gave me a headache


Hello Zed, your games are very good. I still have downloaded the man from the window since I met your games. I didn't stop being a fan of yours. I love your games. Good luck in your projects.

this game was great I loved it and my body took a screenshot, keep up the good work

DEFINITELY top 3 of the best games you've created. Absolute banger. can't wait for more!

Zed zed I’m glad you’re not dead. It’s been a few months since the last game and I was a bit worried you were gone, but I knew you were taking time to make something good. This game I will say is a pretty good start off to your come back after these past few months, so let’s dive into it. The gameplay was pretty fun for the most part. The task was simple in finding ingredients to put into a bowl and afterwards going down a path to grab some chains. The parasites were fucking creepy my guy and I was afraid of touching them. I laughed when I pressed the space button cause I DIDNT EVEN THINK that a GIANT ASS LASER was gonna shoot out of an amulet, but it was THE BEST way to get rid of those creepy looking bastards. 5 shots is pretty generous but once I got to the 4th chain is was needed, although the 5th chain was unlimited shots which is fair when I’m facing like 5 parasites in total. 

Now for the story. We get new characters with such “amazing” designs which is just your style like usual. Our girl Angela Angler (that’s the last name I’m giving her) is helping our Monica Matte (I couldn’t think of a better last name) because she was requested from Red Post Pages which yay cause it’s a reference to many character’s jobs throughout the games. Apparently there’s this big fish, which I’m like wow, what an odd fish, but it looks cute honestly. But that fish can cause a large famine and disasters to the area.

So this got me thinking on a theory. I’m highly sure that the game is set in the same town like all the other games have, and I think that a long time ago the fish had awoken and caused terror to the town before Monica’s father stopped it. This would most likely explain why the town is in such a terrible shape, why all these people need to take random jobs. From the Vermanders and fish, they have caused this town to turn in a terrible state as it is. Though I guess that’s a stretch. But I’d like to to think that’s what it is.

There were a few errors that I saw in the game. Monica says the word “preform” but I’m sure it’s supposed to be “perform” she also mentions at the last run if you got the “fourth” chain, but it should be the “fifth” chain, and when she places all the chains in the barrel, it only shows 4 chains and not 5. It’s not too bad but it’s something that I noticed while playing for the first time.


At that end, I must say, it was a wonderful game, and I’m glad to see you’re back. The game isnt so bad on tough mode, but I did suffer a bit near the end for sure. Your games are creepy for sure, even if they seem like simple designs, you really know how to make it scary. Woods and tall creatures are something I wouldn’t want to see myself. I hope to see another one soon. Keep it up Zed, hope the money helps you out.

Apologies for my absence the last few months, hopefully that won't be happening again!

Also, thanks for letting me know about those dialog errors. It's pretty easy for me to miss those, unfortunately.
If I need to patch the game for whatever reason, I'll be sure to fix those while I'm at it!

Other than the odd error here and there, I'm glad that you enjoyed this one.
Thank you very much for the support, thank you for another thoroughly detailed review, and above all thanks for playing!  :)
Glad to see you're still around here as well.

Are you planning on ever releasing games onto Steam?

Gameplay en ESPAÑOL.

I really like all your games, good job with this one.

Thank you!  :)

Hey there Zed I know it's been a little bit but thanks for making this and getting it out! I really enjoyed this one and it's tough mode felt like it really did make it harder. I got all endings and the little secret callback was nice too! The game is definitely worth the dollar to anyone out there!

Thank you very, very much!
It's so nice to hear that you enjoyed playing this one.  :)

Good, slightly challenging game, beat the game on my first 2 tries both modes 

All endings and Easter egg in my full video on my channel. Thanks for doing what you do Zed, this was a fun game!

Thank you very much!  :)

Ah yes. The man who makes big assets for a fun game. I hope your situation has finally been fixed. Also, same guy here who has both TBMK games. Some people are interested. May I have permission to distribute these games to the masses?

(1 edit)

Keep in mind those games were taken down is because they do not meet my standards.
If I wanted them to be available again, I would put their pages back up myself.  :)

Your original request was to play the games for yourself, and I had no issue with that.
Anything other than that is outside of what I agreed with.

Glad I got the reply.  Then I'll simply await for when the revamped TBMK games come.

Man be popping these non-stop. Can't wait to see you doing big bucks on steam, my friend.

Don't worry about me this time, I'll just watch ManlyBadassHero play this one. Thanks for all the fun

I made a playlist with all Manly's gameplay of your games, by order of release. In case someone out there needs it:

I think he already has his own playlist

Good to know, I made one mostly for myself, so I don't really care.

I jokingly said to myself "man it's kinda weird how zed hasn't uploaded in a minute" like 4 days ago. wtf dude are you in my head? also hey your alive :D

(+1)

Yes, I have to apologize for my absence the last few months.
Hopefully that won't be happening again.  :)

we're just glad you're ok!

Great game!

Hey, thanks for playing!  :)

Hogwarts, Raya Lucaria, and Vincent Clortho didnt train me for this. Following the legacy of her badass hero dad, a thicc but subpar witch brewing potions in a barrel with her hired help. Cant afford those expensive fancy Cauldrons, a industrial barrel on some cinderblocks will do.  lol I love the creativity here.

Thank you.  :)

Really loved this one. You certainly have one of the most original "styles" I've seen in gamedev. Thanks for another banger!

Thank you so very much!  :)
You're very kind.

kinda hyped, Zed's microverse is one of the most entertaining lately, I feel like the characters were alive, it's awesome

Thank you so much for the compliment!  :)
