nice

bigbosserndog 2018-08-12 20:45

It looks interesting but I'm not exactly sure how it works. Do I have to try a push the other person or try to put myself out of the bed to cool down?

reizoukin 2018-08-12 20:47

I'm getting a strobe flash after pressing start and none of the limbs will move. Any idea?

chillen 2018-08-12 21:03

@bigbosserndog You're right about being off the bed to stay cool! There's a blanket layer overtop, when you're under the blanket you heat up and when you're not, it cools down.

@reizoukin Oh no! It looks like Chrome isn't very happy with this export from Godot. Thanks for the heads up, I'll see if there's been any fixes for it. For now, there should be a Windows 64 executable available as well, but it's a shame it's not working. I'll post the desktop link as a backup. I appreciate it!

Edit: It's been fixed. Turns out chrome just doesn't like 2D particles in Godot 3 right now.

I got an index out of bounce message in Firefox (Chrome works fine). Funny idea and good execution. I found a similar game, maybe you are interested to check it out: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/get-comfortable

Made me laugh - I died of heat and cold.

reizoukin 2018-08-12 22:04

@chillen Awesome, thanks for the fix!

Cool game! I liked the seperate controls for each limb. I could not make it to 6AM though :( I got to 3AM at the most. Loved how you used the theme asswel. Keep it up!

chaitae 2018-08-13 01:20

I really liked this game! I had fun trying to push my partner out of the bed. I'd love this as a multiplayer game.

Haha, this is a really clever idea. I relate intensely to this game. It did seems like I could get stuck in certain positions, but I suppose that's not completely unrealistic. Good work!

sixbeeps 2018-08-13 03:45

I've never been in a relationship, but I have heard the stories of two people in a bed. GG.

Great twist on the theme! the ragdoll physics work great! Tons of fun wish there was more

panda 2018-08-13 04:46

The game won't play for me (Firefox, MacOS), it just says "index out of bounds".

chillen 2018-08-13 19:08

@laytanl Really appreciate the feedback! I played it so often I had no idea if the game was too easy or if it had some difficulty to it :)

@chaitae Definitely! I was really interested in making it multiplayer, but I kind of self-imposed a 12 hour dev time limit on this (which I may have broken a little bit) because there's LD42, Extra credits jam, *and* the game maker's toolkit jam this month. Smaller time limits to avoid burnout :) Might return to it in the future!

@panda I've been hearing about a few issues with certain browsers, and I think it might boil down to Mac. I've tried to add an executable Mac port, but have no way of testing it. If you were willing to give it a test I'd be hugely appreciative! If not I totally understand :)

panda 2018-08-14 01:48

@chillen, I downloaded the binary version and that worked! The game's very original! I wasn't able to make it to 6, though, it's pretty hard. Love the idea, game, and graphics! The sound works very well, too.

chillen 2018-08-14 01:57

@panda That's really great to hear! Thanks for coming back to check it out :smile:

inferture 2018-08-14 15:14

Humoorous and fits perfectly the theme. The awkward controls makes it fun to play and the whole concept is just funny. Keep up the good work ^^

cameronpenner 2018-08-15 03:00

It's just like real life! XD Great work, this is a silly and charming little game.

seconddimension 2018-08-15 12:51

Can't believe I froze to death at 30 degrees! In real life I can't sleep at all much over 25 degrees, and 18 degrees is better. Am I just strange? Anyway really fun use of the theme.

paulloz 2018-08-15 17:05

That's a fun idea! Controls are a bit janky but that's part of the fun. It's quite hard to make it through the night though. Nice entry overall. Just so you know, I added your game on my [list](https://gist.github.com/paulloz/2966cb9c674146d0a1ba44899ac6ab4f) of games made with Godot for this LD. Also, I had the same issue with particles and Chrome, I'll check if it's already known and report the issue if not.

chillen 2018-08-15 17:11

Hey @my-sweet-whomp that's good to hear! I really only had myself to playtest and I kept thinking the game was too easy so I bumped up the difficulty a bit too much I guess haha.

That's awesome! Thanks for that list, I'll probably show it off to a few people at future jams to give everyone an idea of what can be done in Godot. Trackblasters is *definitely* one of the awesome showcases.

It is listed as an active issue [here](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/16281). Not sure what can be done of it, but I might take a look into it if it hasn't been resolved in the next few. Seems to have been around for months as a problem.

Thanks for checking it out!

This was funny, reminded me of Octodad with the controls. First I boiled, then I froze. I liked the music and the unique take on the theme. Great job!

chillen 2018-08-15 18:03

@seconddimension You're not strange! I totally agree. The temperatures here, however, are supposed to loosely reflect [internal body temperatures](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_temperature#Temperature_variation). The death temperatures reflect ~comatose, and the comfortable temperature represents our resting temperature. With some liberties for mechanics design, of course! I'd anticipated putting a modulation on the player character as your body temperature went up and down, but I totally missed that story when I was doing my last minute feature implementations when my 12 hours was up haha

seconddimension 2018-08-15 18:47

@chillen ahh OK that makes sense!

twinghosts 2018-08-15 18:52

Cool game man, lovely simple art-style. The music and situation really hit home on the subject :D, it made me chuckle at times :) Cool that it was a sort of collab with ur gf! The idea felt unique, I havent seen anything like it so far!

One thing that did lower the fun value unfortunately were the arms getting stuck and not having a lot of control over the body in general. But other than that it was a cool game I really liked it.

zicboy 2018-08-18 08:39

Awesome game! I enjoy the art and mood of it. Keep up the good work!
