You are truly a SSTAAAR! ;)

yamzho 2015-08-26 11:35

That's a pretty goof game there !

brainfreezeman 2015-08-26 12:16

First I just got to say that I really love that main menu music!

Great graphics too, and quite an interesting puzzle game with a fun take on the theme.

sydream 2015-08-26 12:49

Solid game, took a while to realize what I was supposed to do, controls are bit gimmicky but otherwise a fun game.

Dizzly 2015-08-26 13:24

@sydream : yes we definitely need a tutorial for this, but in the end we got too much tired XD

multiplexor 2015-08-26 14:35

Very good! Like a lot the graphics! The mechanics were nice but after a while it feels a bit repetitive! Nice game overall :)

adsilcott 2015-08-26 14:41

Really liked the game. It was funny concept and fun puzzle gameplay.

sergi-montaner 2015-08-26 16:02

The game is very original and the graphics are cute, but the game is quite confusing.

mungoman1 2015-08-26 17:37

Pretty cool! Not sure about being locked to a grid, the controls ended up being fairly tedious due to that. A little confusing but once I got the hang of it, it was fun.

careless 2015-08-26 21:05

The graphics are really great, nice level layout and colour scheme, love this type of low poly model.

Music was really good, created the right mood for the game.

Controls were fine and the camera worked well, the security cameras were a nice idea so you had to figure out which was which in order to complete the task list.

I was a little unsure of the best tactic to complete the tasks and not quite sure what leaving the clone did.

With some more work and maybe a tutorial room this would have been even better but in the time available you did excellent!

Dizzly 2015-08-26 22:00

@careless : yes as said in previous post a tutorial was really needed... anyway the clone you can put into the grid so when actors hit hit tip they will go toward the direction the arrow is pointing... I added a TIPS section where I say that, maybe it could help

rougerogue 2015-08-26 23:08

It was pretty fun although I had some issues with certain actors getting stuck in place which meant I couldn't get them to certain cameras. Other than that it was pretty fun and creative!

mechanicallife 2015-08-27 12:51

Loved it, a simple and straight forward puzzler. Had some trouble with the mechanics initially but I managed to figure it out :)

dickpoelen 2015-08-27 18:07

A bit hard to control at times, but it's a really fun and clever concept. Could see this be expanded on easily.

boskosokolov 2015-08-28 12:49

Very nice, amazing graphics, awesome sound, puts me in a happy mood. Nice entry

leuthil 2015-08-28 12:49

Nice game concept! Even reading how everything works it was still pretty hard to get the actors to go where I wanted and there were a couple of glitches (one actor went outside the map lol). But it was fun and the I like the use of the theme :) Well done.

Dizzly 2015-08-28 12:59

@Leuthil yes I know that glitch (Lol). The problem is that I don t have time to fix it now, maybe next week.

dracomagna 2015-08-28 13:07

One of the best game I've seen so far!
I love the idea of being the monster in a movie set.
Also the art style is really good.
Nice job!

pi_pi3 2015-08-28 13:46

This is fun. I lost when I accidentally glitched Sport Spice and she wouldn't move

erkberg 2015-08-28 14:55

This is fun little game. I really like the visual style, together with the very well fitting music and sounds it creates a nice comedic feeling. How to play the game was a little tricky to figure out, a tutorial would've been very helpful. Once I got how play to play, it was really fun to try to position the actors in front of the cameras. I mainly used the scream, because the other two disappeared a little too quick and the chilling field seemed to not be working properly sometimes. Overall, this is really nice game, good job!

sypanite 2015-08-29 12:22

I love the concept, rather unique! The game was great.

tmpxyz 2015-08-29 12:47

interesting ideas!

berserker_chris 2015-08-29 15:24

Nice Game, good graphics. I stuck in 1 Lvl and scared people to walk over the hole.

hdong 2015-08-29 20:13

Loved the graphics and music
Controls were confusing and I wasn't sure how to use some of the moves
Overall seems like a promising game! Great work!

valid4life 2015-08-29 20:15

Had trouble with the controls at first like others here.
Audio and visuals were definitely the highlights
Good game :)

Dizzly 2015-08-29 23:21

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I will try to patch it next week.

reheated 2015-08-30 00:29

Really clever gameplay and great presentation - enjoyed the voices.

taro 2015-08-30 03:33

I personally found the game to be frustrating, as the character AI doesn't often act in ways I would expect. As an example, the freeze attack does not sometimes encapsulate an AI to a range (may have to do with higher spook level, but that would make the game unnecessarily hard). Providing more consistent controls and less bugs (characters sometimes get stuck on a wall, or even go through it) would have helped my experience. As it currently stands, I feel like I'm helpless in my situation.

dregamr 2015-09-01 18:06

Beautiful game!! Graphics, music and sounds are very well done!!
Only one thing, "null reference exception". Take a look to the referenced objects in there.
Congratulations for the game!!

freaknarf 2015-09-02 05:43

Nice cute game ! it became interesting once i understood how to combine all technics. It took some minutes but i had fun then... Very cute visuals, musics fits well and mouth-made sfx creates a good mood and atmosphere :)

steboots 2015-09-03 01:39

Oh snap! I watched Tech Valley Game Space play this! I tried it tonight myself... I feel a lot of designers took a similiar approach to this theme, and I think you stood out with your take on it. Nice entry!

kizler 2015-09-07 01:31

I loved the entire concept. I got lost on how to make people go where I wanted to, so I ended up winning levels with no idea how I did it.

hotboxgames 2015-09-07 01:59

Great little 3D game, audio made me chuckle! :D Very innovative, first time I've played this sort of game this LD. Seemed to play well, great work piecing it all together - I am truly a star!

PS Didn't quite understand your question on our submission - if you want to get in touch to clarify we'll happily answer any questions :)

xanjos 2015-09-07 17:10

Absolutely brilliant concept and really cool take on the theme (pretty sure I've also played/rated a similar entry that made use of the movie monster concept as well). Only gripe is that aiming the W skill is pretty difficult since you have to press both the button and the direction at the same time.

bombjack 2015-09-10 19:43

original gameplay and cute graphics

chrismcmath 2015-09-12 07:40

Such a polished, unique experience! The learning curve was a little steep, I wonder if some of the mechanics could have been stripped back a little without losing too much depth.

tth2x 2015-09-14 17:51

Really nice graphics and concept! I included it in part 31 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/smH_qgd8pMY
