The Flubbies are so cute! Only thing I would complain is that everything is a bit slow, but for a 48 hour challange it's an awesome game!

dragonsbeardgames 2019-10-07 23:54

Super cute game, great graphics. I think it's a tiny bit slow, but it was still really fun to play.

yaen 2019-10-08 00:39

@lukvasando Thank you for the comment! I agree, Flubbies are very cute :3 The early game is intentionally paced a little more slowly so new players can consider their choices, read the cards and learn the mechanics without too much stress. I see your point though, we may have gone a little too far with the slow pace.

yaen 2019-10-08 00:41

@dragonsbeardgames Thank you for playing and commenting! I'm glad you liked it. We tried pacing it a little more slowly so decisions can be considered carefully and new players can read the card descriptions and make an informed choice what to place. May have made it a little too slow in the end though haha

Do any of y'all know where I can buy a pet flubby? Because I would pay about as much money as I make doing game development to have one.

Amazing game. Art is very beutiful, upgrades look awesome. Gameplay and sounds are fun, responsive and satisfying. The biggest issue is that there is no win condition, so after a while theres no point in playing it anymore. Also I wish I could see next wave spawn timer and how many waves I already killed.

mikeorma 2019-10-08 07:48

Agree with @lil-penguin . I liked it so much tho! It's super fun and intuitive to play. Awesome for a jam project to be honest, quite impressed.

monish-vyas 2019-10-08 08:53

Nice game mechanics. Loved playing it especially upgrades. Once I had to chose least terrible card, I really loved that part.

pythooonuser 2019-10-08 11:33

A very nice game! It is polished in every way, graphics, sounds and fish movement. The game starts out very slow though, I would have liked it a little more difficult. The amount of card variation is fine!

jason-lothamer 2019-10-08 15:47

Everything is so well done here! The design, art, sound, it's all good! I only wish I had more time to play!

yaen 2019-10-08 21:25

@flashviper maybe the creator of Flubbies @yazara can make one for you?

yaen 2019-10-08 21:27

@lil-penguin thank you for the comment! I generally prefer to have some win-state as well. I think there's some replay value in the simple card-based highscore we've got in the game though. Play as many cards as you can before the Gronkas eventually win.

yazara 2019-10-08 21:56

@flashviper Thank you! :) Once my pet flubby produces offspring I can send you one!

sheepdog123 2019-10-09 01:00

Amazing game. The art, music, and gameplay are OUTSTANDING for being made in such a short amount of time. Great work, guys! :slight_smile:

thevideogamester 2019-10-09 04:23

96 is currently my best score. Got to come back and beat it at some point! Lots of fun

nanocube75 2019-10-09 08:28

Amazing work! loved how cute the flubbys were :D

rebecca-harrison 2019-10-09 13:57

This game is so addictive :O Had a lot of fun trying to get as many Flubbies as I could inside the range of the spells. Spent 15 mins farming flubs before work and I wish I had more time top play!

ausstein 2019-10-09 14:02

Great game really awesome. I had to restrain myself to not watch the stream while I was working on my own submission. 102 Was my score :) My strategy: I gave the gronkas only Hp upgrades (got them offered every time) and hoped to get enough range damage on my Flubbies to negate that. At the peak I had like 20-30 nearly fully upfraged Flubbies :)

fabian-g 2019-10-09 17:38

wow, this game ist hot :yum:

fear-games 2019-10-09 21:33

Great fun game, wish there were more cards but a good selection given the time :D great job

arzi 2019-10-10 09:59

This is definitely one of my favourites so far. I love the idea and the gameplay was fun and entertaining. Also the fish we quite cute.

mad-brokli 2019-10-10 11:09

Played the game for a good 20 minutes. Great idea and the gameplay was fun. Cute fish sounds

bilalch213 2019-10-10 18:21

I played it for 15 minutes because the game is very engaging. This game is really well made. I wish there are more kind of cards and enemies. But it is fun anyway. :D

woody-builder 2019-10-10 21:36

This is super fun and really relaxing at the same time. I love the graphics and sound design is quite good.

gamerplayer 2019-10-11 03:24

thanks i made it up to 44 cards played in both trys

kaeveris 2019-10-13 08:56

Played up to 68 cards only and was so sad when my last flubby died :( I love the sounds and design of flubbies and how each item changes them (those big lips were kinda creepy tho XD)

I felt like dealing damage card was showing not often enough but maybe that was the idea - armor your flubbies, give them weapon and you don't need dealing damage cards anymore, just watch them kill XD (but I was just bad at keepieng flubbies alive XD)

Overall awesome game!

roka-josh 2019-10-13 18:47

What an amazing game for such a small time period! The sound design is fantastic, and combined with the stunning visuals and captivating gameplay, truly spectacular. Amazing job!

majadroid 2019-10-13 19:02

Feels very polished, was fun to play. Nice game. What I missed is to make some progress. After a few minutes, there is nothing new to discover and it is very easy to stay alive. But anyway, very good game.

barkergames 2019-10-13 19:09

Nice job, I really liked how the Flubbies start out with no abilities and you had to upgrade them with cards. It took me a second to realize that you can upgrade a group of them based on the circle. Cool idea. Awesome entry!

mrstari 2019-10-13 19:34

This game is really amazing. I made it over 40 Cards it was really funny to play :slight_smile:

I've made great invincible killer flubby!!!!

yaen 2019-10-13 19:48

@asfdfdfd AWESOME!!!!

yaen 2019-10-13 19:48

@ninjacatz Congratulations on that score :) Not bad!

onury 2019-10-13 19:52

I realy like the game. yw.png

yaen 2019-10-13 19:58

@onury nice score! Thank you for playing :)

tjmcdonald 2019-10-14 01:59

Such a good game! Very fun, very creative. You should keep developing this and put it on the app store, I think people would love it.

purrseus 2019-10-15 11:31

I played up to 106 and then stopped because my economy was still strong yet the game seemed to offer nothing new. But, boy, was it a journey up to that point! I love, love, love what you did here! The presentation is super strong, obviously, but the gameplay is really addicting, too! I could totally see myself playing an enhanced version on my phone for quite a while :)

Amazingly well done!

kenster 2019-10-16 03:13

Amazing game! I got 83 cards played, would play again. Very innovative

recursor 2019-10-16 21:41

This was really fun, and I found myself playing much longer than I expected to. I think this could be made into a pretty cool game with the addition of more cards and enemies. It would make a great mobile game.

shubart 2019-10-16 22:53

Amazing game ! Lots of good idea. Really pleasing to play. Nice graphics and sfx. Thank you for your game

@ping78 Really good score! Well done :)

yaen 2019-10-17 22:42

@shubart well, thank YOU for playing. And for the kind words :)

yaen 2019-10-17 22:43

@recursor more cards and enemy modifiers would definitely make it more interesting in the long run. I'd love to extend the game with that sort of stuff at some point. Thank you for your kind words :)

yaen 2019-10-17 22:43

@kenster not bad at all! Thank you for playing and giving feedback. Glad you liked it :)

yaen 2019-10-17 22:45

@purrseus Thank you for playing and commenting. I'm glad you enjoyed it that far. It's balanced to be kind of a slow paced long game but I feel like in order to fully back up that balancing it should get some more content in terms of more different cards and perhaps also some boss waves. We might add stuff at some point :)

yaen 2019-10-17 22:47

@tjmcdonald Not sure if we'll have the time to keep developing it as most of us have full time jobs but I do definitely see the promise :) I'll keep it in mind and maybe we'll have the time at some point to make more out of this.

mashupgames 2019-10-23 19:59

Very fun game! Got distracted playing it for like half an hour so you've definitely done something good in my eyes

ryjcio 2019-10-26 23:05

Pretty neat concept, I wish it would be more predictable for me how my choices have impact on gameplay. Nice job!
