Dude, you should warn that its vr game. It almost crash my laptop

pixelsplash 2019-05-01 21:53

Im sorry for that @team-on, it is not for VR, what happened with your laptop?

1samuel411 2019-05-02 14:35

That art style did amazing!!!!

aterlamia 2019-05-02 16:16

I do love the art style very much but i am not really sure how to play (i just played the ld one) nothing seems to happen and i can just walk around. One small thing i noticed is that your character "slides" a bit before he walks which is not a big issue but something you want to keep in mind for future games

Thanks @1samuel411!!! @aterlamia :D, yeah the Jam build was not finished, the Jam + 2 version is the playable one, oh thanks for the feedback, I will keep that in mind for my next game.

Cool stuff here with some great sound and art. I would suggest some more in game tutorialisation though, as it took me a few minutes to understand what was really happening.

tony-redmer 2019-05-02 19:19

This game is beautiful! A little confusing at first, but I enjoyed playing it :)

kcourtois 2019-05-02 19:20

Really loved the art, well done on that ! The gameplay has potential but is not very clear overall. With a bit more time i'm sure it can be a pretty cool game :)

The graphics is definitely 5, nice models and textures, Good sound effects. the rest of the game could use tutorial, it took me some time to figure out, you need to bring the dudes close to the weapons, the same thing is true for the pulling of the dudes, some visual or sound feedback when you pulling them would be nice. Also it would be nice if you could sacrifice your own life for money in some way not just dudes.

pixelsplash 2019-05-02 22:26

Thanks!!! Yeah if I keep working on the game the first thing I will do is polish the gameplay a looot.

I'm pretty sure working on your game for 5 days instead of 3 is against the spirit and the rules of Ludum Dare. The rules clearly state you are only supposed to fix major bugs in the game after submission. If you do such significant changes, you should at least leave the link to the original submission, so people can judge the ld version of the game.

pixelsplash 2019-05-03 11:50

I understand that @flying-dog-fish, just added the other build, I had the first build here before, the problem was that it is not playable and people were downloading that one, I understand that the idea is to show what we got in 3 days, but for me there is no point to receiving feedback in something that is "not finished", I only have one "completed" playable build and is it the 5 day one. Thanks!

The cool thing about the game in my opinion is the art and aesthetics that made it very cute.

pixelsplash 2019-05-03 16:01

Thanks man! @miltonsilva, the art part of the game was my main focus this time, I am used to be the programmer only.

dev-for-pizza 2019-05-03 17:25

I love that kind of graphics! Just a little problem, it's not intuitive enough in my opinion. Keep going dude, this could be a very good game !

gassi-games 2019-05-03 17:59

The visuals really got my attention.

The Gameplay could need some more work I think. Some explanations could helpt the game, too!

sol-roo 2019-05-03 18:15

hey, as everybody is saying the art is completely amazing! The controls are very confusing, i guess you designed for a controller. You could just use right-click for camera, or otherwise use a 2 handed keyboard design (not great given keyboards multikey limitation) Anyway, it is very promising! good work

korteh 2019-05-03 20:51

i love this game. gameplay needs some work, player need to have more time to prepare, now you get overwhelmen by enemy in minutes. and game just not ends, i kept laying on the floor while my health continued to lower in negative numbers.

joror 2019-05-04 12:13

Love the shader and artstyle! Comes together nicely. The gameplay was a bit hard to get a hold of - holding mouse to keep them following me instead of clicking was not obvious. The sacrifice part is interesting, but did not need to use it with the mushrooms for health?

hydrogenium 2019-05-04 12:44

Art is amazing and style comes together really well

jestemstefan 2019-05-04 13:27

I don't know what happened but my PC was at 100% CPU and 100% GPU all the time. Even Witcher 3 wasn't that punishing for him.

I like the game, but it was hard to understand what to do. I have read gamepage but still. Enemies are much more powerful then our sodiers

pixelsplash 2019-05-04 15:24

Thank you guys for the nice comments!!! I will keep working on the gameplay to have something more enjoyable. @jestemstefan yeahhh this is my first time with unreal and there is a lot going on in the level, I still have to learn a lot of optimization in unreal. Thanks for the feedback

hijomo 2019-05-04 16:57

The style and look are great. I thought it was such a wholesome keep all my people safe game then I found "IT". so much sorrow.

copper-aardvark-games 2019-05-04 18:06

The graphics are great. The gameplay was sort of relaxing for me and kept me captivated. Great work!

acactus 2019-05-04 20:20

I dont feel comfortable rating this based on the features it didn't have on release, but I love the art. and it's really goofy to watch my soldiers crumple into flesh blobs after being attacked by other soldiers.

pixelsplash 2019-05-04 21:20

@hijomo hahahahahaha, yeah!

Thanks @copper-aardvark-games @acactus I understand completely, thank you so much for the comment, really! next time I will try harder to finish the whole game!

cursedembassy 2019-05-04 21:51

Wow nice entry! :D had fun playing this

mario-marinelli 2019-05-05 09:06

Great Game

ivan-garcia-filho 2019-05-05 13:56

Awesome graphics, i just had a bit of stuttering on my machine, but the overall look is awesome, the build size is REALLLY HUGE for that small amount of assets. The shading you did is awesomee, you could try to improve the "handdraw style" by making the shadowing use a "hatching" texture and maybe add some "grainy" texture to the large and bold contours like "pencil graphite"...

The UI is neat and clear, but the art isn't following the same direction as the characters and evironment, maybe just add some hatching to the lighting and shadowing of the elements (fonts and icons) would fix that.

pixelsplash 2019-05-05 15:41

Thanks @mario-marinelli, Wow @ivan-garcia-filho Thanks for the shader advice!!!!! Yeahhh thats true, I will work in the UI style, I wish I have my wacom here :( haha

hwaet 2019-05-08 01:17

Really fun art! This game has a nice visual feel to it. It's a bummer about the extra time that you needed, but it's great that you were upfront about that. Keep at it! Next time you'll be faster :)

erikkire 2019-05-09 17:47

Amazing art and 3D model animation, nice!
