@nachtwitch thank you for your time :) I'll defenitively do that in the next days ;)

nachtwitch 2019-10-07 20:23

no problem, the game looks cool though

buoygames 2019-10-07 21:19

good job!

simxple 2019-10-07 21:31

Nice game, i really like the apperance of the engines and the soundtrack is nice aswell.c:

yohsk13 2019-10-07 21:44

@simxple thanks :) I'm glad you like the soundtrack as it's the first time I use one in a game ^^.

Exposing to heavy metal garbages makes the charater hairless.

Great gameplay and here are minute details in this game that we could easily ignore. It requires a dedicated player to enjoy this game. But it starts really slow and right click would be nice.

yohsk13 2019-10-08 18:37

@darkcmd :v: thanks for playing :p :metal:

@alphaden Thank you for your time, sorry if you find it to slow. Drops of metal are through a random dice role with each metal having about the same % of chance to appear so yeah, it probably means that I need to think a bit more about the game progression and pricing ^^.

plepletier 2019-10-08 22:53

I really like this one. Im dont know if understand the build mechanics but i love run around and ghether garbagen and grow my skills and build more structures ehehhehehe

yohsk13 2019-10-09 11:05

@plepletier thanks :)

Oh, man... there's something I really liked about that game. Is it the weird graphics ? The purity of the concept ? These salad fingers vibes ? Dunno, but nice job. It's better than most of games for sure.

chaosround 2019-10-10 13:00

Nice, good job... I need a tutorial to advance more heheheh.. but its good idea..

yohsk13 2019-10-10 13:08

@thomas-olsson thank you (^^_) (I didn't know what Salad finger was. Thank you for the ref, that definitively special :p)

@chaosround I understand the need for tuto ^^. As I am pretty lazy, I tend to try to hide that lack of tutorial by triyng to be as intuitive as possible, but I know that's a weak excuse :p (especially that that 'intuition' really depends of what kind of game you played before)

pedro-miranda 2019-10-10 13:22

Nice game. congratulations for your entry

yohsk13 2019-10-10 13:24

@pedro-miranda Thank you :v: And Long live undead bacons :v:

goupixm 2019-10-10 16:44

I spent so much time on your game ! Haha ! It's really fun and we don't stop playing. The music is nice too, discreet but present! Good job :Dscore.png

jakemchugh1 2019-10-10 17:00

I feel productive now

yohsk13 2019-10-10 17:27

@goupixm :D glad you like it and thank you for sharing that screenshot :)) (I don't think I went higher than 10k while testing myself o_o. Well, I kept spending too. But I can also see 0/46 in inventory space, wich is a lot ^^). I'm honestly very happy that there are people enjoying playing my game :)

@jakemchugh1 thanks for playing :)

yomissmar 2019-10-10 17:50

It's so funny! It's one of those dangerous games you can expend too much time playing without noticing haha. I also kind of like the art style, just feel like the background is a bit too simple, I think that the aesthetic could improve a lot with some little details, maybe grass instead of the green color? Good job and nice entry! :)

ljfmx 2019-10-10 18:04

I think you did a good job with the progression of things. I would add less trash spawning as the screen can get covered quite quickly. Good job :)

yohsk13 2019-10-10 19:19

@yomissmar hey :cat: ! Thank you :) I admit that the backgound is just a plain uniform green screen. Adding variation (like patch of grass or dirt) would help a lot indeed :thinking: .

@ljfmx Thanks :) I initially had some plans about adding events (as taxes for littering or trash tempest) but for some reasons (mostly time) I had to cut them out. Thanks again for playing ;)

coffeedrinkers 2019-10-10 21:47

Great entry! Got me thinking about all the environmental problems we have (here in my country and the world at whole). :sob:

twinghosts 2019-10-13 12:50

A fun time waster, which is good in my opinion :D It'd be nice to have a bit less trash, but it's fun either way. Spent more time on it than I thought I would

yohsk13 2019-10-13 16:40

@twinghosts Thanks :p. And yeah, it's more or less designed as a time waster \(^^|. (I think at some point I wanted it to be something like a clicker game but I think those are too passive :thinking: ).

@coffeedrinkers Thank you for playing :) (:cry: but yup, too much problems around.)

xotsu 2019-10-14 06:45

Fun but graphics werent my type enjoyable nonetheless

yohsk13 2019-10-14 11:07

@xotsu Sorry to hear that :( . Thank you for trying it despite not liking the art type.

enzo-b 2019-10-14 20:17

funny game, great job ! :D

avon 2019-10-20 14:15

A bit confused about what some of the buildings did, but had fun playing it, it was surprisingly addictive. The art is uneven, but some of it really good.

yohsk13 2019-10-20 16:20

@enzo-b thanks :)

@avon thank you for playing
