Nice game

ali312 2014-12-08 19:00

Yeah, reminds me one of those old hacker-simulator game nobody knows)

ViliX 2014-12-08 19:02

Would it be possible to create a Linux version? :/

eponesh 2014-12-08 19:02

Greate game, but to hard to understand what's going on:)

Nice game, though the ui was hard to navigate. Maybe have a list of displaceable items to set the priorities instead. Also, it was hard to see the relationship between the tasks at the bottom and the priorities at the sides.

Hmm, you might be able to get it running on Linux using WINE, but I'm not sure vb.net translates well to Linux, I'll look into it though!

crazyrems 2014-12-08 19:16

It's... Ludum Dareception :0
Seriously it's a nice idea, but the interface is not so easy to understand.
Maybe I'll try it again later.

Good Game, but it doesn't follow somehow the theme...

tomdeal 2014-12-08 19:58

Cool game! One thing I found really distracting were the labels flying everywhere, where games like game dev tycoon used smaller balls.

fanttum 2014-12-08 20:13

haha, looks nice, but I'm on mac :/

spacemyname 2014-12-08 21:14

fun, thought he layout could be better

matthewholland 2014-12-08 21:20

Quite good fun, but there's a lot going on and I didn't really feel in touch with it (and it wasn't out of control in a fun jam way :-) ).

andrea 2014-12-08 21:30

Pretty fun game :)
I wish I could have used a timewarp this week-end too!
Great job!

The music was a little difficult to listen to constantly. It took a few minutes before I understood what I was doing and by then I was in "UI Polish" phase with 30 hours left in the dare! The game fit the theme really well and I liked your take on it. It was funny to play, as well!

Good job!

Good game, but a little bit a confusing.
I did a game with the same premise for look what I made weekend. :P

nuiguy 2014-12-08 22:49

I couldn't really play it because the bottom row of ideas wouldn't show up, I think that they are there, but my monitor isn't high enough resolution? (1366 x 768

nuiguy 2014-12-08 22:50

I couldn't really play it because the bottom row of ideas wouldn't show up, I think that they are there, but my monitor isn't high enough resolution? (1366 x 768) UI was quite confusing. Nice idea, maybe you could improve it?

meta-link 2014-12-08 23:33

Ok, that's definitly a good idea :D
The UI is a little bit rough but the game is cool to play and funny !

gandalf1209 2014-12-08 23:53

I would play, but I have Linux, not Windows. Wine didn't work either. :(

tommyno222 2014-12-09 12:25

Good idea! Very interesting game.

teamquadratic 2014-12-11 05:59

A lot of different things going on at once, but a cool game!

gemberkoekje 2014-12-11 16:00

Hey man, could you please help me debug the problem you had with my game? I've added a DEBUG version which will add a bit of logging to the keys, so please play it for a bit, do whatever you did before, and please send me the log! Thanks in advance!

As for your game, while I'm here, and as soon as I've said to my virusscanner that this really ISN'T a virus.. ;)
Well, I won, first place, with a game which had 4 in fun, and minusses in most other things... I wish it were that easy in real life! It was a bit confusing, so a bit of a tutorial would've been nice, but not a bad effort overall! Also the audio made me a bit jumpy.

thescragglyman 2014-12-12 18:13

Loved the game studio live plug haha, Nice to see this game worked out man ^^
Great entry :D

gins 2014-12-12 22:10

Interesting game, but it's also very confusing. I guess you need to play a couple times to get it right (just like the real Ludum Dare haha)

rainshapes 2014-12-16 14:19

Looks cool! Wish there was a mac version though...

cxsquared 2014-12-18 22:49

Wish I understood the priorities a little better but overall a really fun game. Great work!
