It was fun to create different worlds, because every single one is unique. Nice idea, even when loading took some time.

bionicsonic 2019-10-07 23:24

I have never though I was going to be able to rule a leopard print land with lakes and beaches of Will Smith, but this helped fulfill a dream I didn't know I had. I plan to rule it in piece for there is no war.

bredera 2019-10-08 09:15

nice little world generator, love all the will smith faces I got! Great work!

ausstein 2019-10-08 09:27

@helen @bionicsonic @bredera Thank you for all the kind words Please share some screenshots I'd love to see all your worlds :D

glowt 2019-10-08 09:30

It's a fun concept that really nails the theme. I had a fun time creating weird fun stuff, would have loved to be able to do more with the world I created but don't you always want more of the good stuff?

ausstein 2019-10-08 09:32

@glowt I worked solo this time, so what I could do was limited. Therefore, generating the world was the priority. If I had more time I would have added some interactions with the world :)

hydrate 2019-10-08 09:38

Interesting concept! However it runs a bit slow on my computer when I click generate. Great work!

huskitch 2019-10-08 16:39

Is that will smith?

ausstein 2019-10-08 16:43

@huskitch of course it is

shaurya-juneja 2019-10-08 16:44

I really liked the game! Btw check my game - https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/prison-escape

2019-10-08 16:44

haa thats hot

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-08 16:53

Looool I had fun because of how silly it is :D However, there is no gameplay per se, so it is more of an 'interactive experience', which fits the theme nevertheless. Not much can be said here.

ausstein 2019-10-08 17:03

@siarhei-pilat Isn't every game an 'interactive experience’ :D But I know what you mean. Going for high points in humor and theme this time ;)

ausstein 2019-10-08 17:04

@zunye you know it ;)

tommyflower 2019-10-08 17:37

A forest of Ice golems with Will Smith mushrooms is all we need. I had some performance issue dued to the amount of will smiths but I like the interface and the way you choose to configure your creation.

appoxgames 2019-10-08 23:12

Goodjob on the game, fun to try out different combinations. But some of the combinations had my computer go through the roof :D

birdybirdkirby 2019-10-08 23:47

i love this game, please make more like this

jake-marks 2019-10-08 23:53

Will Smith

addnone 2019-10-09 18:39

Will Smith will give me nightmares thanks to you lol :D

ausstein 2019-10-09 18:43

@addnone Well no one forced you to pick the will smith options ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ausstein 2019-10-09 18:44

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

manomeu 2019-10-09 20:01

Nice game, but crash my pc when i'll create the animals. My pc is not good.

ausstein 2019-10-09 20:10

@manomeu It might get unresponsive, in that case you just have to wait a bit longer, but it should work eventually

ancient-pixel 2019-10-09 20:23

Ahaha that was fun, i would like to upload some own textures to make it more replayable.

manomeu 2019-10-09 20:31

@ausstein, its works, Will mountains with walking houses. lol

ausstein 2019-10-09 20:36

@manomeu good to hear. Glad that you enjoyed my little game :D

asterisk 2019-10-09 21:33

This might be the weirdest game I've ever played, congratulations! The concept is really fun. The only thing I would change is the text font, It's quite difficult to understand it (being non native speaker).

ausstein 2019-10-09 21:39

@asterisk That was actually my main concern. I asked some people for feedback before the deadline and they said that actually having a biblical font fits the game so well that its worth the tradeoff in readability. So I left it in, but thank you for the feedback :)

ashashza 2019-10-09 22:50

If somebody told me this morning that I would end up giggling because "my Will Smith's were blowing in the wind"... I would never have believed them.... until Genesis 1.

How you ever seen a House roam free? I have. Have you ever seen Jaguar beach? I have.

This was a cool little concept that really took me by surprise when I was able to click "Explore" and go venturing around my creation (read: abomination).

Cool idea.

nachtwitch 2019-10-10 01:17

The lighting looks almost like tripple a games, absolutely stunning!

josh-aaron-miller 2019-10-10 01:20

10/10 mountains of will smith

I was waiting to be able to explore my world, that was good. The font, though hard to read, really brought it together as a cohesive narrative.

ausstein 2019-10-10 01:21

@nachtwitch Had to make sure will smith looks as great as possible;)

adam-konig 2019-10-10 01:51

I didn't know I needed plains of will smith and wolves and roaming houses. 6/5 stars for humor. From an actual gameplay perspective also very cool though if you could have this kind of choice when generating like a minecraft world, it could be very very cool. Great entry, had me laughing very hard

stuckne1 2019-10-10 02:51

The graphics are really awesome. I had fun watching everything come into existence.

hiroboto 2019-10-10 03:40

hhhhhh it HAS to be 5 in humor lol

mikeality 2019-10-10 06:23

Needs more Will Smith.

alphapolygon 2019-10-10 06:38

lol Will smith. Nice graphics and solid humor

kr0s 2019-10-10 08:18

Awesome take on a creation game. Apparently, I am a meth god. Untitled.jpg

zimennik 2019-10-10 11:23

10 Will Smith out of 10. Nice entry =)

iak 2019-10-10 12:49

Have you considered posting this game on a meme site?

ausstein 2019-10-10 13:02

@iak I'm not really active on meme sites. But I give you the permission to do so if you want. Just link the post here :)

purpledartfrog 2019-10-10 14:03

Too old for this :rofl:

roka-josh 2019-10-10 18:09

An interesting simulation, it would have been good if you could do more and some music would certainly not go a miss but certainly an interesting concept, and one which fits well with the theme. Good job!

goupixm 2019-10-10 22:03

Haha ! This game is so funny, really ! It's 5/5 for humor and fun. Poor Will Smith! Good work, it is really enjoyable. I don't regret coming here :D

geoff-nagy 2019-10-11 07:02

Funny game! I created trees of swords. This is a fun game. I like how there's lots of different ways you can combine environmental features.Grab 20191011000023 w1920h1080 x113y36z63r65.jpg

graphicedit 2019-10-11 11:14

Really cool game!

enzo-b 2019-10-11 17:06

niiiiiiiiiiiiiice game guyyys !

xenoxygene 2019-10-11 19:52

Humor 10/5, this was hilarious. Kinda wish there was more to do in the beautiful world I created. I wanted to feed my houses and cyclops. Pick Will Smiths up so that I could make a bouquet or get lost in the ice trolls forest. Really nice job with this game :D

morilia 2019-10-11 19:57

Yeah, better not add humans they're not worth the trouble for the world I created, with plenty of lava and Will Smiths XD.

ausstein 2019-10-11 20:01

@xenoxygene @morilia haha you let me win humor, I let you win all other categories, deal? :D

xenoxygene 2019-10-11 20:09

@ausstein Deal :')

balance686 2019-10-11 21:11

What did I just play? lol definitely the most unique game I've seen so far this jam. Lots of points for humor and theme. The Will Smith heads killed me 😂 It'd be nice if you could interact with the world you create but this is definitely a creative submission. Good job!

local-minimum 2019-10-11 22:05

genesis.png

A very nice genesis!

Lovely experimental game.

The dropdowns were a bit glitchy but nothing really that bugged me greatly.

Good work. I couldn't figure out where the screenshot ended up so I took my own.

flying-dog-fish 2019-10-12 10:59

This is fun and it fits the theme. Plus points for the ents.

ausstein 2019-10-12 12:26

@flying-dog-fish I feel as a physicist I should have come up with the matter anti matter idea instead of god 😂😂

pedro-rosa 2019-10-12 16:00

Overall I like the game. The concept is really different from what I saw in the jam. It fits very well with the theme, congrats.

hcursino 2019-10-13 06:50

At first I was disappointed "Ugh, another god creating stuff simulator". But then you allowed me to create a world where the mountains where will smith, the trees were swords and the living creatures were houses! My mind was blown! I could not stop laughing, I had to replay the game at least another five times to mix all those weird options! So much creativity, amazing work!

f1krazy 2019-10-13 13:17

Highly amusing and entertaining. There's not much to do other than experiment with different wacky combinations, and the generated worlds feel surprisingly small, though I'm guessing if they were any bigger, they'd take even longer to generate than they already do.

My sister is a massive Will Smith fan so I *have* to show her this game and see what she thinks :joy:

aevek 2019-10-13 21:25

My first world was kind of weird, my second world was absolutely insane, and then just like how in GTA sometimes its nice to drive like a sensible person, for my third world I tried to calm down. Except then I noticed that 'houses' were a creature option. So I had a sensible world with houses roaming free. 5/7.

fear-games 2019-10-16 23:02

Good game. fits the theme really well
