Made in 3 days for the Zeno Jam 5.

Jhonny's Moth Wife is a small Wario Ware inspired collection of microgames, where we follow Jhonny and the many things he has to go through to keep his Moth Wife from getting too distracted by lights.

5 microgames are playable.

(Note added after submitting) Everybody is letting me know that the controls are very hard to understand, so here's some instructions  on how each microgame is played.

Grab: Press the up arrow when Moth Girl starts flying to catch her.

Catch: Use the left and right arrows to move Jhonny and catch Moth Girl before she hits the ground.

Shine: Use the arrow keys to catch Moth Girl before she runs into you.

Don't touch: Use the left and right arrow keys to move Jhonny's hand around the fire, stop Moth Girl from getting burnt.

Play: Quickly press the space bar as Moth Girl gets ready to grab the lamp to win.

Thank you all for your feedback.

Special thanks to Juhani Junkala, author of "The Essential Retro Video Game Sound Effects Collection" for making all those awesome sound effects available for free so i don't have to make them.

most of the games are too fast and nearly impossible.

I loved playing this game, I really liked the art style. It was the most fun game I have played this game jam!

The visuals for the game are very charming and well-done! Most of the microgames feel impossible and incomprehensible, but I imagine that it's all to convey the dynamic between these two lovely characters.

Also, this is the greatest soundtrack of all time.

The game being obtuse and hard to figure out wasn't intentional, unfortunately, this game was too ambitious for a 3 day jam and I didn't have time to get other people to try it before submitting.

I'm still glad you liked the art, I crafted it with a lot of love, or at least as much love as I could put into it during day 3's crunch time.

Thanks a lot for playing and giving me your feedback, I hope you have a fantastic day!
