itchio doesnt work :v:

Excellent graphics, it's a good clicker game. Maybe invoking satan is a bit expensive, 500 souls would be more reasonable, but great work!

Nice!

The page doesn't seem to be working

The screenshots look very interesting, but unfortunately, the itch.io page isn't set up. :/

Hi, your link doesn't work for itch.io

Nice concept, and great artwork. Would have been nice to have maybe some animals require couple more clicks or enemies that were stronger. My tower seemed invulnerable though 😂 Keep up the great work

Our game is now available on Itchio! Indeed, we left it on draft .. (Fatigue) ^^

I played the game because the graphics looked nice. I was surprised that there was no rating for the graphics. I had trouble clicking on some of the villagers. It seemed like their colliders might have been a bit too small or something. The music was blaring loud. It forced me to quit the game much sooner than I really wanted to. I couldn't find a way to turn it down or off, so I just left.

As a clicker, started off good. However I found eventually that the tower seemed to be invinsible, as well as that eventually there was no challenge at all as the demons were just dominating. So a good start however the game needs some balancing. I did enjoy the graphics and the music however and you have a solid base of a game i believe!

Beautiful game - you can tell that a lot of artists put a lot of time into this. Also the music is great! For some constructive criticism: * The hitboxes could be more generous - its very hard to git some of the creatures * all demons of one type move together - not sure if intentional.. i thought my demons would spread out but in the end 5 small demons did the same the very first one did. the always moved together * one small sound effect to indicate damage to the tower would be helpful - also the tower doesnt seem to take damage? There is no healthbar and just letting a bunch of farmers poke the tower for a few minutes doesnt do anything to it.

Awesome game! Good job!

frog5tar 2018-12-04 08:47

Nice game and concept only found a few things I didn't like 1. the difficulty doesn't seem to increase as you get more demons or more animals to spawn and 2. after a while the music stopped guessing you haven't looped it :) other than that very interesting game

Nice short game. Played it till the end (Don't worry won't spoil it). Only thing that bothered me was that the demons would always target the same objects, which made making more than 1 of each demons unnecessary. Otherwise a solid entry!

zinarch 2018-12-04 09:11

Well done, it is a nice concept! Would have liked some variation in creature "HP" though.

marin0104 2018-12-04 09:20

Hey there, that is a nice clicker game! It seems to be that the difficulty does not increase over time. That is critical for the overall gameplay feeling, because why spend more souls if you do not need the additional demons?

dkallan 2018-12-04 09:34

Great visuals and fun to play! Is it intentional that the demons move in a group? It looks like each type shares its target with demons of the same type and as a result, buying more demons does not really feel rewarding. Buying the different tiers however, does feel rewarding, since they will all target their own animal / farmer.

Also, does the tower have infinite health? I was trying to get to Satan while writing this comment, and I noticed that my demons got stuck in eachother. When large demons want to go left and small demons want to go right (in a group of 4+) they will keep running into eachother :yum:

I will not spoil what Satan does :wink: but I liked it.

gebowunjo 2018-12-04 10:23

Nice work ! Really good game ! some fix needs to be done but it's a nice proto ! The music and the graphics are awesome !

ragnta 2018-12-04 10:34

Nice game, but I don't have to summon as many demons as I can, because 3 demons are more than enough for me. I enjoyed your game, and I enjoy my apocalypse, too ;)

corbak 2018-12-04 12:53

The game is not bad at all and the graphics are nice. However there is a bit of some little glitch that cannot make a good progression. By playing it I saw that all minions use to go to the same direction, therefore blocking each others path. So it is really not worth taking many minions. one of each is enough. But the style and the idea behind it are nice :) It would be better without the bugs. Nice work

joqlepecheur 2018-12-04 13:09

Nice graphics and respect of the theme. 1000 points for satan is a bit much, I stuck around to check the ending ;)

0x01f0 2018-12-04 13:27

I found it very satisfying to synchronize the beats of the song with the clicking. I wish the track would loop! :)

I'm still saving up for the last unlock as we speak and it keeps me curious to what it will be like. :)

Nice work!!

Update: OK I unlocked it :D Great ending, suits the theme.

smuhlaci 2018-12-04 13:37

Great work! I love the art and animations! Also the game design works very well as clicker game. This is Innovation!

camcam-s5 2018-12-04 13:47

@0x01f0 @joqlepecheur @smuhlaci @corbak @ragnta & @gebowunjo Thank you all for your feedback. We're keeping your advices and your comments in minds to make an update that will improve our game.

Thank again, have a nice day ! :chicken:

zessirb 2018-12-04 21:19

The music is nice, and it is quite satisfying to increase souls ; if you plan to improve your game in the future, you might want to increase the difficulty (maybe depending on time) and add some more features ! Well done :)

It sure felt great to see nice graphics after all my text based misery. Characters are so amusing it took me half a minute to figure out they are not X-flipping when changing direction. Demons look lovely in particular. Gameplay starts as addictive, the only problem is the game doesn't scale difficulty up (tho I'm sure you know this yet ran out of time), so after raising the first three demons and becoming invincible, I realized getting 1000 souls to summon Satan will be pure OCD and no challenge, tbh by the time I reached 800 I was thinking "I'm really not enjoying this" but I just had to see the guy. Good exercise in how to make a fool click over a thousand times. Literally the only mistake you made was not adding at least simplest form of difficulty scaling (like spawn 5 additional farmers per 100 souls owned) that is all you lack for a great game. Oh, now that I think of it, I did made a sacrifice that I had to do (tedious clicking with no challenge) in order to see Satan, so I guess you will get higher score in theme category than what I was thinking at first. Good job.

g12345 2018-12-05 02:20

I like the look of it. It's good that you really only need to click 100 times to get the demon and then you can idle until the game ends. Any more and I'd probably have stopped playing. :smile:

I also like that every group of monsters are only going after the same target, that means I don't have to buy another one.

A nice short good looking clicker game.

xphere 2018-12-05 13:46

Got me some satan to help me. You won't believe what happened next...

Nice twist in the idle/clicker genre, liked the art, although demons of the same kind tend to group and bother each other, so there's no point to get more than one of each type. As others said, difficult scaling should be the next for the game to be a challenge. Good job overall!

markusfisch 2018-12-08 22:56

Finished! :v: But with a few demons to help me, the game played itself from a certain point on :wink: Really nice graphics and cool music!

Pros: - Your entry nicely fit into theme - Interesting mechanics in the tower defense style - Grafics design of your game is not bad, I like it :)

Cons: - Base building asset is more pixel art then other game assets. So it's looks wierd in my opinion - Game dificullity is not changing and is static. So after few minutes game is very repettive and not challanding. - In game is missing some kind of scoring, like count of killed souls of somethink like that

Overall: Game idea and game overall is good, I like it. Graphics part of the game is also not bad. But after few minuts game is very repetitive and not challanging because lack of incresing diffuculity.

Yes I summoned satan :)
