Took me a long time to find the food label :) And I still don't understand why I lose. Human overpopulation? When does that happen? What are the colored boxes? :)

And in the beginning you are killed like in less than a second when you have not yet figured out what to do.

I played your game this is good but first you need to fix out the sound and the buttons bg

kuviman you either get eaten by the aliens or ran out of food

Overall a nice attempt for under 48 hours of work, keep it up! I like the concept of aliens chasing you, and you needing to sacrifice cows to stay alive, unfortunately the game feels broken in its current state. It took me way too long to figure out that my character was the white box. You should apply a texture to the ground so the player has a sense of movement. Maybe give the player some time to move around at beginning of game before being swarmed by the aliens. Also I saw some aliens flying over the edge, extending the ground plane to be bigger, and putting invisible barriers on the edges should solve this. Overall I would aim for a smaller scope next game jam so you have more time for polish and bug fixing, maybe something like this concept but in 2D instead of 3D.

Got killed instantly after starting every time. bug? Strange as I see other could play it.

I could not even play it. I think I was killed instantly when I started the game every time.

Good audio and the concept was cool, but game bugged out every time I started (Windows).

I died the minute it loaded, tried clicking the buttons but died, couldn't move or anything.

David Markham I am only a 11 years old kid that just made his 3 game I had a ot of problems like my dad being realy angry at me becouse I didn't sleep. The game wasn't originaly for windows thats why there are the bugs and the flying aliens are just a function of my AI.

@soda Very impressive entry for an 11 year old. Sorry if any of my critique came across harsh, I try to aim for constructive criticism. Keep up the good work!

furtive-pygmy 2019-05-02 05:48

Nice entry, amazing for an 11 year old! As @david-markham stated, there are a couple of bugs but you're definitely going in the right direction. Hope to see you in the next Ludum Dare and keep on making games.

@furtive-pygmy @david-markham thankyou for your feed back

furtive-pygmy 2019-05-03 16:02

Played this game for ages, me and my work mate were trying to get to 1000 coins but found it incredibly hard. Is there any way to finish with 100%? The food timer seems to tick down very rapidly after a few clicks and could only get to about 500 coins.

sode 2019-05-04 16:18

It is possunkylkeä of u spam the right buttons

sode 2019-05-13 19:29

furtive-pygmy 2019-05-23 04:54
