Great concept! I love doing eruption :D

I enjoyed this. I enjoyed setting of volcanoes. Great work, you've got a nice style going here.

Doesn't really seem like a game, but cute graphics and unique concept. :)

Pressing F doesn't spawn volcanoes for me, a little particle effect is all I see.

That is the volcano spawning Davision, you have to cause it to erupt by pressing SPACE.

A little difficult to understand, but idea is original.

I really liked this concept, it's unique and vibrant. Though it seems more like a toy. I would probably enjoy seeing this worked out.

Good models, enjoyed eruption!

Nice idea, not so much a game but it is a very interesting concept :)

I love the way you did the tutorial, it was surprising and looks fun.

Nice work! It was fun to spawn multiple volcanoes at once, even though it slowed the game down at times. The interface in the beginning was really interesting. Would recommend adding more visual feedback when you have pressed F to place a volcano.

Spiffy little toy you've got here. I just wish the controls were a little less cumbersome, like maybe locking the camera and the cursor to each other to an extent. Like, the cursor auto-centers when you pan around, and the camera will also move if you move the cursor past a certain "deadzone".

Simple, well made little interactive! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/DppxuiW8XzY

Nice concept, I love destroying worlds :)

ah man I can finally hear the audio. I really love where you took the game from the second night on into sunday - the clouds, the green, and especially the water were huge improvements. I wish there were more systems to interact with - did you see managore's planetarium?

I think this is definitely your best game so far. The graphical style is really cool and makes the low-polygon stuff look really good. The ominous music really fits the "beginning of the world thing". But the volcano animation and the particles and the moss growing and turning into land is the coolest thing for sure. I really like growing a bunch of volcanoes at once and getting a really loud sound effect...

not sure this is a game - but interesting idea

thebrickanator 2015-12-28 19:35

Would have loved some life to grow and flourish on the islands, or be destroyed by the eruptions... idk but the game worked well and looked quite nice :D and greetings from Mt Etubo :P good work.

Hello, haha indeed we had a similar idea and the same basic shortcoming (turning it into a game). Anyway I enjoyed your visual design and herb growing animation. Sound design was a nice touch too!
