The link to your game seems to be broken

andreas-roschal 2018-12-04 02:39

@infinityforger9 Thank you, it's fixed now.

I loved the pig noise! It's a bit of "try to find out how the game works", and I'm bad so I didn't manage to bring anything back to the circle :( Great potential though!

Game is pretty hard. Would use a minimap because one can get lost :P

Absolutely love the movement of the main character, I giggled so much while playing. The proximity of detection for the enemy characters has a wide breadth, which was slightly frustrating but enjoyable all at the same time. Such good art too. :)

nice game, i like the run animation its very funny

woergbi 2018-12-04 02:55

@pawciu Thank you for your feedback. After some playtesting we also figured, that it would have been nice to have a minimap, but unfortunately there was not enough time left to add that feature. We hope the game has been enjoyable nevertheless!

it's fun!, it's a little difficult to go back to the sacrifice circle tho. but i liked it!

wowa 2018-12-04 11:10

Nice entry! But i wish the character could move a bit faster ;)

gebowunjo 2018-12-04 13:00

ниче в круг не смог принести(но неплохо

Nice Game!!!! But hard xD

sempiternal 2018-12-04 18:58

Very challenging but fun! Props for sounds design!

Nice hard game. I love the movement of the main character

The idea of stealing all these animals in the night is funny. But it is really hard to do so. Some of the crazy people can't see the difference between a goat and a chicken. How about a map so you can find your way back?

bananabobbert 2018-12-05 03:14

@helen haha, thanks for the feedback! :) Yeah the difficulty is a bit overtuned, 3 animals would have sufficed and the minimap would have been great but sadly we ran out of time :(

I like stealth games, and this was pretty neat and fun. I actually enjoy the lack of any map because it makes learning the layout part of the game, and stealth games are supposed to be sorta kinda puzzle/maze games.

madrededios 2018-12-05 19:00

The game concept is very interesting. However, this noisy chicken will give me nightmares

bananabobbert 2018-12-05 19:13

@madrededios haha sorry, especially for the missing sound mute :D

eddie-li 2018-12-06 01:59

An amazing game! It was a lot of fun to play and the graphics are nice. I don't have much to complain about. Good job!

arvejeitor 2018-12-06 13:06

Game is kinda hard, but graphics are nice!

haharo 2018-12-07 00:14

The pig sound is amazing, the farmer is really scary! The graphics are very nice, good job here.

afroant 2018-12-07 03:46

Very cool game. The audio was on point. NPC interactions made the villagers come alive. I tried a few times, but the villagers loved their Betsy too much :( Never managed to beat the game. Good job overall, though!

rjhelms 2018-12-07 04:49

Great premise, the animations are great, and the sound design is on point - like others have said, the difficulty is a pretty harsh, especially at the start. Maybe a checkpoint system, where when you were caught you kept any animals you had brought back or sacrificed already, would make thing easier.

I also ran into a bug with my Xbox 360 controllers in the web version, where pressing a button was treated like repeated presses for as long as it was held down. The Win64 version doesn't have that problem, so maybe it's more a quirk of Unity's web builds or my browser than your game. (EDIT: I just learned my game is doing the same thing, as is my game from the last LD which certainly didn't back in August - I'm leaning towards "browser bug")

almax 2018-12-12 13:25

Omg that walk animation had me in stitches, made the game for me :smile: Loved the ambience, music and SFX were great. Wish there was more to the game though, perhaps being able to distract the NPCs or an option to fight instead of run. Also as @rjhelms said a check point after you get each animal into the circle would help keep people quitting after their first failure. Otherwise great entry!!

I love stealth games
