I couldn't get past the first level. I opened up all of the doors and had three units, but nothing I did got me to the next level.

I couldn't really figure out how I was supposed to progress, but the art and assets were all pretty cool.

howlingshame 2018-12-03 04:16

Main idea it is to put unit in to the doors, he opens it and something happens, also you can help them by clicking and choose who die. To move to the next level you need to move all the units to the exit door. For the first time, this is always the far left. there will be a leaving animation and when there are no units left on this level, the next level will begin. Thanks for reply. I think that most of those who watched the game also can't leave first level.

The concept is very interesting and the game feels fun. I liked the controls and sounds which are pretty crispy, good job.

I sent three people through the open door but still didn't seem to progress in level. Not sure if there is something else to do. I like that there was a bit of exploration and that you added more interesting mechanics to the clicker archetype.

It took a little for me to understand how to play, maybe better instructions are in order.

Nice idea but I put all of my people into the exit and cant go to the next level. The animation and sound effect is really good. The design of shaking when mouse clicked is cool.

Please check out my game https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/43/$123979

The game seems to break after first play through and you just progressively die each time. I would look into that and upload a new version, cause that is a game breaking bug. The drag and drop controls did not seem to always work. The rules could have been explained a little better, but overall it was fun after figuring out what I was supposed to do and the graphics and audio was nice.

I'm sorry, I tried thrice and I did not understand how to play the game. Good pixel art though.

wongkongphooey 2018-12-03 11:09

It looks great, but I simply couldn't figure out how to play it! Threw everything in the fire in the end, and this is not how it works seemingly! Good effort though, particularly on the art.

jakobthequizguy 2018-12-03 11:27

Cool idea, however it took a bit of time for me to even undertand how to properly play, could've been made more clear with an in-game tutorial.

daniel-abeleira 2018-12-03 11:40

Nice game. Good job!

gamers-blood-entertainment 2018-12-03 12:02

I liked it! the graphics were really cool and the music was fitting. just a tiny tutorial in-game would have been really helpful

seed42 2018-12-03 12:08

had fun burning those naked people :)

i had no problem understanding how to play - the only thing is that i don't know why you should let your people break the doors if you can do it much quicker

tornoz 2018-12-03 12:13

Really nice and original concept, it took me a few tries to really understand what was going on but then it was quite enjoyable

erendelous 2018-12-03 12:41

Lol, the game is really fun to play and audio is quite cool, too:)

jhell 2018-12-03 13:04

Hi, pretty nice game! I liked the idea and the core loop but in my opinion the game is much too difficult. I'd give way more items on the first levels and reduce the fire decay rate (maybe even hve no decay on the first level so players can get a feel of what they need to do).

Also it's a bit frustrating that the fire decays when you're changing levels. I also had some trouble with the controls sometimes (playing in browser). But it was a nice experience overall :)

david-hunter 2018-12-03 14:09

Nice idea, needs a little work on difficulty and pacing.

almog 2018-12-03 15:03

simple and quiet addictive ! good job

slowpro 2018-12-03 16:21

cool! could have used some background music though

dreamlesshero 2018-12-03 17:45

The sound it makes when you place a human in front of a trapdoor, is a bit annoying and kind of makes me go insane. The overall gameplay and concept of the game was interesting, though i never understood if there was a way to increase the time.

keksa 2018-12-03 19:38

I liked it, needed a moment to understand the mechanics, but I was able to make it to level 5 or so. Nice little game. I think you should make the music play by default though, since you already have the sounds on by default.

avi 2018-12-04 04:16

It took me a couple to figure out the game mechanics, thought that the people would open the doors if I left them at the doors. Then realized I had to break the doors lol

I was able to make it to a level where there were two tunnels, all seemed to be going well but then the game got over, not sure why? There was an explanation but that went away too quickly

isaque-picao-sanches 2018-12-04 11:03

a bit rough arround the edges, but very cool

gebowunjo 2018-12-04 16:12

Nice work ! Clicker are always the best games =P

shp 2018-12-04 19:12

The naked men were a bit disturbing but waiting for the doors to break was nicely tense

der-finski 2018-12-04 22:58

Im exploding naked man...wired XD

moski 2018-12-05 02:02

While the game got somewhat skewed at times for terrible luck of the draw, I had a genuine fantastic time when things started going through levels like crazy. I mean, my best was 5, but still...

firefox_2018-12-04_19-56-57.png

Fantastic art, with a fun setting and a good mechanic of balancing number of people with time. The description was not very clear, but it's one of those games that it's better to just head into them, play a bit, and learn the mechanics as you play.

And man, didn't I have a blast with it. I got 2 people on a single level, and that gave me enough to sacrifice them and get further and further. But more often than not, I either died by not finding anyone at all, or randomly exploding people. I believe that the odds should be tweaked just a bit in the player's favor.

Regardless, fantastic entry. Loved the retro feeling of it. [My team](discord.whalesandgames.com) are looking forward to seeing more from you in the future. I'd sacrifice a few naked men to make that happen. Cheers! :whale:

kinuni 2018-12-05 16:11

coll but a bit repatativ

bradur 2018-12-06 09:08

I feel like this game could use some polish on the UI & controls side. It was hard to understand at first what was happening and how I could play to win. The art is very nice and the sounds work well with the art. Interesting idea!

gri-bel 2018-12-06 10:12

Amazing game with cool graphics!)
