Nice little game! What really stood out to me is the voice acting, It was really cool. However, the game has a fairly slow start since you have to wait for the letter to be read out loud. I did understand what the game was about, so I guess it worked :). Anyways, good job for making the game! :D

Oh hello!

The voice acting on this game is awesome, though I found one bugg, if oyu hold a blobby during the tutorial the drop button will stay on the screen, whilst the blobby is already dropped, the only way to get rid of it is sacrficing it :P

This is one of the games I enjoyed the most so far. The voice acting fits really well and the Offerling mechanic is so much fun. Great Job!

@caspercaper17 Sacrifices must be made (good catch on the bug :)). Thanks about the voice acting, making stupid noises is my favourite bit.

arvejeitor 2018-12-04 18:06

I have to agree with them, the voice acting is really nice!

As others have said, loved the voice acting. I had trouble accurately picking the correct offerling despite knowing what I was looking for but I think I'd probably get a feel for it after a couple more plays.

Good job! Nice little game but it was pretty tough in the beginning but I got the hang of it. SFX and voice acting were an awesome addition too!

Funny game, and the offerlings are pretty cute/silly. I wish there was more levels.

kirke 2018-12-04 19:19

I want your offerlings! Or at least your shop nearby! It is so easy to solve problems, especially with your great sacripedia! Your game is pretty funny. And you did wonderful job with audio! I really like it! <3 Thank you for you submission! :D

Awesome prototype. The voices really make it alive. The offerlings are cute. I would love to play to a more complex version of this game. Good job !

krylos 2018-12-04 21:26

Very well made. The voice acting was really excellent. The offerlings are pretty cute and I liked the graphics overall.

flcx 2018-12-04 21:29

Great audio, and voice acting. Great graphics as well. Intro part was a bit long.

Camera felt a little sluggish and the environment was a bit lackluster.

Everyone's said it, it must be said, the voice acting was amazing. The sacrifice blobs were cute and I appreciated the butt jiggle trait. I love 2D pixels in 3D space so thank you for that as well.

Cheers!

I liked your game! Especially, that you had an intro. also the voice acting is very good, you have a nice voice! The artstyle works very well with 2D + 3D and the music was very pleasant and well made. Maybe the camera would have worked a little better in a fixed orientation, because there wasn't anything I could see behind me and changing the view was a bit unintuitive at the beginning. All in all a very nice game!

Weird!

crashmusashi 2018-12-04 23:06

He He Hey... :D

Clever idea! Liked the presentation very much!

christina-antoinette-neofotistou 2018-12-05 00:09

They are adorable :D Thematically it couldn't be more on point ^-^ Congrats sweeties

Wonderful voice acting!!! It REALLY adds tons of personality to your game! I liked how you made an intro and added the instructions inside the game itself as a Wikipedia page, lol. As a point of improvement, maybe the camera? It felt weird to control. Really good game, nonetheless! Keep it up!

swanijam 2018-12-05 04:26

Wonderful audio and art! super well done, and so polished. Only complaint - I didn't realize i had opened the game yet because i had so many LD tabs open, and i kept hearing the offerling go "woooOOOahh" every ten-ish seconds and i was SO SURE i had got funny virus from one of the games i downloaded.. so i was super mad at your game when i started it.

i warmed up to it though :D

driagonv 2018-12-05 16:03

Wonderful Game, I liked the gameplay, I lost at the blue guy wanting to arrive at a meeting though!

grena 2018-12-06 21:40

Didn't know what I was going to play, but was really surprised haha! The sound is really great, nice job on this part :)

I have a question, is the game composed of 3 sacrifices only? I see on your screenshots some instructions I didn't have in Game :( A yellow characters thanks me and a button "try again", if yes, it's a bit short, I would have loved to have more offerlings to inspect :eyeglasses:

eldogg 2018-12-06 21:45

@grena Thanks for playing. Well spotted, yes we removed some of them instructions as we didn't want people to be too confused. We only had enough time for three! I think what we've learnt for the future is to write a system that would allow us to generate levels from a template so the game would last a little longer.

ninnec 2018-12-06 22:10

Really cool game. Very unique. I liked it a lot

boyturnedrobot 2018-12-06 22:14

That was funny. I really enjoyed it, the only error I can point out is that in the encyclopedia it says "tache" instead of "stache". Good work. I really liked the music and added voice work.

edward-dassmesser 2018-12-07 00:14

Levels 1 and 2 were quite easy. I really could not figure out which offerling had a jiggling butt though. I thoroughly enjoyed the voice acting.

gerardb 2018-12-07 00:36

Guys! You've also come a long way! This is awesome. Really polished, good looking and funny! I had a great time. I love how you have expanded on the funny round looking creatures. I love them. Amazing stuff!

One question out of curiosity, is the voice of the beginning yours? It really fits (well all the audio fits great) but I really enjoyed the intro voiceover.

foxxy 2018-12-07 09:10

@gerardb Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed it. The voice over is ours. I don't sound like that normally - I've got a Stokie, UK accent.

silkworm-sweatshop 2018-12-08 00:03

Well, I didn't think I'd be intensely looking for a creature's jiggeling butt cheecks today but.. you know.. sacrifices had to be made. Voice over was great!

gamebuilder 2018-12-08 01:44

Great job with the sound — I agree that the voice acting really adds a lot to the game. It took me some time to find the last critter but I got the job done. An unusual experience.

devilqube 2018-12-08 23:15

Nice voice acting. I couldn't find the jiggly Butt though :(

garethiw 2018-12-10 20:27

Thanks Steven Dimble!

This was fun, loved the voice work and mood. The offerlings were very cute! I imagine you had plans for a lot more offering types and scenarios, but there was enough there to get a feel for the game :)

antoine-vion 2018-12-10 20:42

Hi !, Nice game, I like the concept and the mechanic, it was fun ;)

The mood is so cool!

very nice job ;p
