I mean, i've never seen anything like it before.

Fun little game :) The obstruction of vision as you progress is a cool idea, and I love that the eyes sort of live its own life! Fits well with The game was a bit short and does not really pose any lose condition. All in all a job well done!

The idea for the game is good, however it was poorly executed. You could easily get past the challenge of the game by just looking at the bottom screen.

This game is insane, different from anything I have already played, so creative, and the art and sounds are pretty good, amazing job for a one man's work, congratulations. Really cool !

Your best game imo. It's an insane concept but it's actually playable and fits the theme an order of magnitude better than anything else I've seen. Definitely needs more levels/gameplay and more difficulty (no bottom screen).

Also reminds me a bit of https://eeease.itch.io/marble-madness-2-crte

Nice work! This is one of the more innovative concepts that I've seen in LD40! I tried my best to play without the bottom screen, but I needed it at the end to think about where the last carrot might be hiding.

I liked the frantic harpsichord music. I'd love to see this game expanded upon!

elfcirynn 2017-12-06 03:12

I like the music, and the concept is wonderful! I wish you could have pushed it a little farther and made it a little longer!

funny idea! works well with the theme. as much as its nice to have the top-down view to follow along with, it kinda feels like cheating. like... as unpleasant as it is, it feels like the true game is _having_ to make sense of all these viewpoints.

It's definitely a game, that's what it is, yup. Y'all know it's pretty easy if you just look at the bottom screen, but it's fun to try not to. The flattish shading and colors are really attractive and the barn is super cute. Sound effects A+

Very innovative take on the theme. I want more levels!

niklas988 2017-12-09 00:50

Fun game! Great take on the theme, but it needs more stuff! Levels, opponents, stages etc.

I enjoyed the kookiness of your entry. Congratulations on being different! I love the title too - All Day I Dream About Eyeballs. So wacky. I love it. I played your game in the browser on itch, and I couldn't get all the carrots, because one of them ended up outside the fence, here's a pic of it:

@Cubeeo I've saw that happen earlier today with someone else too. It shouldn't be able to do that, but you can still get that carrot (or should be able to) by sticking our mouth beyond the edge of the fence!

I may not be giving this all 5s, but it will be one of the games I remember most from the Jam. Thank you so much for letting me play this on stream, was such a blast. A bit more time to polish this it would have been even better. Good job!

marc-grabow 2017-12-10 02:01

I think this might be the weirdest entry I have played so far - love that the style looks like a 3-year old used MS Paint! Without the bottom screen it would be unplayable I guess but I really enjoyed the weirdness. Never stop being weird! Great job, keep it up!

twotwentyfour 2017-12-10 02:12

I think this one hit the theme the best out of all the other games I've played so far. Thank god you put in the mini map otherwise this thing would be quite challenging. Though for weirdness sake I kind of what a version with out it.

Great entry.

I could see the future and it was full of eyeballs. 5 stars.

nervous-composers 2017-12-10 03:14

nice fit to there, interesting concept.

would prefer if the minimap doesnt show the carrots so you got to really try hard to find them!

totsboy 2017-12-10 07:10

This is completely insane, I love it! Got an error on web version after 6 eyeballs

jfraser314 2017-12-10 08:06

That was awesome. I do not know if that was the best example of "The more you have, the worse it gets," but it was definitely in the top 5 of the 100+ games I have tried. Fun graphics and easy to understand controls and goals. Overall, great job!

fran-segura 2017-12-10 08:57

Love the idea! This kind of weird little experiences are the things that I love the most about jams, and I think it fits the theme nicely. But maybe as a game in its more classic definition, it should have a bit of challenge. Even if the map on the bottom of the screen is beautiful, it makes the game really easy, it's hard not to look at it.

But again, I love it! Good work!

lex 2017-12-11 10:24

I think you should get rid of the bottom screen or else the game completely loses it's purpose. Also, I wasn't able to get the last carrot since it moved so much faster than I did.

But it was a great idea indeed! I enjoyed it, congratulations!

jobonlol 2017-12-14 02:12

I loved the game, but yeah as mentioned previously the minimap makes the top screen a moot point. You suggested having a timer or a limited use of the minimap and that would make it more meaningful! Fantastic work!

Super wacky, well made game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 40 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtXXwu1asxI
