It was fun and nice game. Really liked the music and specifically the fart sound! Good job

knithguris 2018-08-15 10:24

Nice game. The fart sound is hilarious! :laughing:

ryan-wickman 2018-08-15 15:07

It was funny, but you shouldn't make the arrow key mandatory, I mean it wouldn't be hard to also map the input to WASD as well. Also how was i suppose to know I would lose if I destroyed the box? lol. Still good experience!

m-dam 2018-08-15 15:15

I am the legendary fart masterrrr!

Aside from the silly theme the controls could really use a lot more work!

joshuc 2018-08-15 15:26

The game is fun, I I think that the gameplay is very fun and creative. The only thing is that it might be a little bit overpowered if the fart jump lasts forever, so maybe it might be an idea to put a timer on the jump. Other than that, I think it's a good game!

benjamin-armour 2018-08-15 16:13

Cool little game, funny twist on the theme, but lets be honest, you just wanted to make players fart there way to victory or defeat XD.

ryanjavanshir 2018-08-15 17:42

Haha, this was pretty funny. I like how you have two takes on the theme: space and farts. I like the character model, pretty sweet!

enric 2018-08-15 18:01

I really liked the menus they were really nice!!

@m-dam @joshuc @knithguris @ryan-wickman @ryan-wickman @zephyrextreme @ryanjavanshir @benjamin-armour Thanks for the feedback

iballs 2018-08-15 18:17

@enric Thanks

jelbre 2018-08-15 18:27

Don't know if it's a bug or not (I will wait with judging the game until I get a reply) but I couldn't keep the 2nd door open with the box...

iballs 2018-08-15 18:33

@jelbre yes I think it is a bug when the box press the button then you press it again with the character the button it will reset as if the box it is not ontop I should of separated the button logic and character in the push button. thanks a lot for the feedback. but for a workaround while playing just push the box out of the button and then push it back to the switch

jelbre 2018-08-15 18:56

I've retested the game now knowing that once the box is on the button, you can't touch the button, and it was quite fun! Character movement was really slow and could be sped up a bit and the monsters don't really do anything dangerous and I haven't even gotten close to getting killed by one, so perhaps buff them?

iballs 2018-08-15 19:11

@jelbre noted thanks for the feedback

dragojt 2018-08-15 20:54

Hehe funny concept! As level design I don't know what to do with the first box, I just can pushing it to de monster and it says game over, so I have to repeat everything. The character looked good. If monsters and items would have followed the same kind of 3d style it would have looked spectacular.

After all, it's a good entry ^-^

balance686 2018-08-15 21:26

Nice job! The graphics are nice, UI looks great, and the music suits the mood of the game. Fart sound is funny too :P I think both the player and the enemies should move faster. Also some switches need a box on them to remain activated while others have a timer but both switches look the same. Maybe a different color/sprite to differentiate? Good submission!

duandi 2018-08-15 21:29

Online high five for both of our games having a janitor! :) Good work, @iBalls

iballs 2018-08-15 22:17

@dragojt interesting okay, thanks for the feedback will keep note on that

iballs 2018-08-15 22:18

@balance686 great idea, thanks alot for the feedback will take a note on it

iballs 2018-08-15 22:26

@duandi Online high five hahahaha, thanks

luca1152 2018-08-15 23:48

Funny game idea! I love the graphics and the audio, you really did a great job with them. Now a few things about the gameplay. The tutorial maybe shouldn't show every time you play the game. I kinda forgot at first what object gived me how much (soda, brokoli, yogurt). I don't know if this would actually look nice, but you could have drawn a circle around each object, with a color of a different intensity (darker meaning less fart bars and lighter meaning more fart bars). Again, this may or may not look nice in the actual game. And that's pretty much it. I found a small small bug, that you could fix easily: the music is not looping.

nicksmaddog 2018-08-15 23:54

Fun game! The movement speed felt really slow, and collisions with the side of the floors would get the character stuck. But other than that, it was fun to play through!

iballs 2018-08-16 00:20

@luca1152 Thanks a lot for the feedback, Noted I will test it out

iballs 2018-08-16 00:22

@nicksmaddog oh okay, thanks for your input I will get back to that and fix it

phearbot 2018-08-16 01:41

I didn't read through everyone else's comments, but I did see one about using arrowkeys vs wasd. Implementing that would be pretty quick and easy (just use input.getaxis("horizontal") and vertical.)

I felt like however the falling movement was done was a bit stuttery, and I got stuck by accidentally cornering the block. I also would like the music to not restart every time I change menus. Aside from that, I thought it was good. The art and music were great!

bevel 2018-08-16 03:13

To a child, I bet this game would be very fun! The graphics and textures were amazing as well as the music! Good Job!

iballs 2018-08-16 07:08

@phearbot Amazing feedback thanks a lot we will look into it

iballs 2018-08-16 07:09

@bevel Thank you bevel :D

karmafarm 2018-08-16 10:21

I couldn't get past the second door. There was a box you needed to push? I didn't get that... But who doesn't love a game about farts in space?

demn 2018-08-16 10:39

Hey, felt like the game was a bit too punitive on some parts : for the first box puzzle for instance, I was about to get the brocoli but the game told me that I ran out of farts eventhough I was going to get the brocoli while pushing the box :D ! I feel like this is a bit "cheap way" of losing the game, but on the otherside I had to think twice about my farts for my next play... Apart from that, the audio is nice, graphics are good. I think you made a pretty tight game given the time you were given, and except from this punishing game design I quoted, your game plays really good ! Good job :)

lonehearts 2018-08-16 11:04

Great game, but monster seems a bit useless. Maybe add a puzzle where they are annoying ^^

chaotikza 2018-08-16 11:32

Loved the idea! Got frustrated with the execution very fast... It took a lot of patience retrying to finish the game.

Graphics are reasonably good and the fart rocket is fairly satisfying from a control point of view (if a bit overpowered as someone else noted).

I really thought the first box should be pushed onto the alien's head so I could get to the bright-red valve thing against the wall... imagine my surprise when I do what seemed like the obvious thing and get a game over?! Maybe consider using the bright colours for the intractable elements next time and rather have background elements be in the background.

Once I figured out the boxes and buttons my next pain point was just running out of farts repeatedly leading to a game over - I understand that you did it, because likely the player was now in a situation now where they couldn't finish, but sometimes I was just going to fetch more food and would've been fine, so it felt a bit punishing... Having to manually skip the tutorial each time didn't help.

Save points or a more forgiving fart mechanic could maybe help with this. Maybe a continuous fart bar that runs out the longer you press it, that charges up to a minimum point automatically (for small jumps), but that needs food to be fully charged.

iballs 2018-08-16 15:43

@chaotikza great Ideas, Thanks a lot for the feedback will definitely keep a note for a future upgrade. Thanks again for the informative feedback. :D

alex-lutay 2018-08-17 03:34

Haha, funny game! I wish you've enabled audio rating - you've got a 5-stars farts!

zicboy 2018-08-18 08:35

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

joe-sycalik 2018-08-18 19:30

Good work! The art was well done. Menus looked sharp and had a good look and feel.

Would be nice if you didn't have to go through the tutorial every time you died. The character movement was a bit too floaty and bugged out on edges a bit. Not a big fat of toilet humor personally, so overall it's not the type of game that appeals to me, but the execution was pretty good overall. Nice entry.

gil4 2018-09-01 18:34

Funny game, I enjoyed it, especially the level design. :D Hope to see more from you in the future! Well done!
