It looks cool, but how do I win / what is the goal?

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-08 08:34

Thanks for playing! Unfortunately, there is no win condition, it was supposed to be an endless roguelike-like.

The sound was awsome, i like it. Wasnt sure what to do at first.

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-08 09:10

Thanks @mad-brokli , appreciate the feedback!

I really liked the idea of using orthographic projection even though it made dodging projectiles harder. The start intro was awesome and I liked the sound effects a lot!

I think, if a few more mechanics and some polish is added to the game it can be a really unique fun experience.

Thank you for making this game!

its just cute and fun to play the only negative for me was that the perspective is a little confusing

kp-cftsz 2019-10-08 14:55

rotating the camera felt kinda jank but aside from that it's a neat lil entry

Nice game but I always don't know where I am if I'm in underground...I think you can add Axis to let us know our location more clearly.

The beginning is awesome

Nice game and awesome audio. The intro was cool. I also liked the black hole destroying animation when game was over. The game would have been better if it had a score system or something like that. But still it was good. Nice work.

The perspective is a little confusing, some explanation on how to play would also help.

The intro is really cute, and good job on the end animation!

The title may be little nothing but want to know what isn't nothing or little? My respect to you for joining this competition, fun game, 5 stars in all catagories

The game is gorgeous, thanks to the graphics design and the little cinematic at the beginning :) Too bad that we don't know what we have to do and what's our goal :(

If you can generate a mac or web build it would be very nice!

graphicedit 2019-10-09 14:19

Nice game

linzz 2019-10-09 14:27

So cute hahaha.If you can make a small black hole attack, so much the better

nisovin 2019-10-09 17:14

I loved the opening bit, it was quite adorable. I wasn't sure what to really do during the game, and it was hard to tell where the enemies were in relation to me.

I want so high that the screen had nothing. The game controls is a bit too complex. It was difficult to get used to. The gameover screen looks good.

rocktavious 2019-10-10 03:21

Could use a bit more hand holding for players and the perspective/camera was a bit jarring. Also highly recommend using a platform like itch.io or uploading the WebGL build if you can. Cheers!

sillyman987 2019-10-10 10:46

Nice game!

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-10 15:33

Hey @rocktavious appreciate the feedback. Unfortunately, it is not possible to play it with WebGL version, some features just won't work. What is the benefit of uploading it to itch.io? It seems like it just adds one more step in downloading a game?

ashashza 2019-10-10 20:06

Like others... I really liked the little intro.

The ortho projection is an interesting idea. It definitely made navigating and dodging projectiles tricky.

I was also hunting for a win condition :)

digitaldude555 2019-10-11 08:59

Its quite creative visually, gameplay its a sandbox type not so bad. I agree with the guy that said there needs to be a goal or some motivation of some kind. When you die it says strat again.

hyperscope 2019-10-12 16:07

It wasn't immediately clear what my objective was but eventually I figured it out. Although once I figured it out I didn't know what the win condition was previous to reading your comment. I really appreciate that you added that short little intro sequence!

masterkrepta 2019-10-14 13:20

Telling exactly where i was on the grid was slightly confusing. and it was not clear at first that i needed to collect parts of the ground to survive. There is a lot of charm and character in the introduction that would fit really well in the rest of the game.

sprotex 2019-10-14 17:25

As many people said, I too found it difficult to navigate and lacked an objective or at least a score counter somewhere.

Loved the intro. I can tell that significant amount of energy went into creating that.

Also I didn't find a way to close the application mercifully. If that isn't there, I'd like to see 'Esc' key to show exit menu or something similar. :slight_smile:

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-14 17:31

Thanks for the feedback @sprotex you say that "significant amount of energy went into creating that". Could you elaborate on what you meant by "that"? Did you mean the intro? I find it interesting that people like it as much as they do, because I literally spent about... well, no more than 10 minutes right before the deadline creating it... Did I understand you correct?

sprotex 2019-10-14 18:37

@siarhei-pilat Oh, I guess I was mistaken :laughing: Yes, I meant the intro. There are many audio tracks in the span of a few minutes, so I imagined that you iterated some prototype intros there.

siarhei-pilat 2019-10-14 19:18

looool thanks for your reply @sprotex it's super funny that the thing i spent least amount of time on - got most of attention haha or so it seems

hartvichio 2019-10-14 19:35

What an esoteric experience :D Avant-garde design i dont know why i like but I guess it feels very jammy

ahistyap 2019-10-14 20:26

I have a low end PC so the game lagged so hard when I played it :sweat_smile: But I can tell the concept is nice, I have to collect the ground and the trees to increase my score. But yeah I kept dying because when I switched view the game lagged so hard. The intro is nice too! Nice work!
