Well the graphics of your game are good and I liked the music too but I didn't understand what I had to do sadly and the lack of restart button is kinda annoying. Maybe add a button to return to the main menu ?

The art style is incredible I really enjoyed that part of it. Game play wise I was a tad confused about how I was doing and what I was doing, I assumed I was supposed to throw the wood in the fire and the people in the pot?The rounds went really fast with water flooding almost instantly. But that being said I thought it was really cool with the art and the uh interesting beginning cinematic. I think if things started slower and were explained a bit more this could be a really fun game.
The aesthetics sure is GLORIOUS! Well done :)
Loved the mood of this game ! It's hard to survive the flood though the coal goes down really fast and I can't really manage to overcome the flood with my mighty straw demon or big flying lizard. If I don't move the bear at all I can manage to survive with what I can see on screen for a little while but I eventually run out of soul and die within a minute or so of gameplay. Overall I had fun so thanks for the game :)
dont starve vibes
@bluecalx thanks for the review) Yeah, this game is totally unbalanced. Water spreading speed is determined by magic in custom cellular automata, changing something makes whole water drain( I tried to fix gameplay by increasing fat demon's living time, so the strategy is to collect souls and spawn as much monsters as you can, while collecting coal at the least priority
Impressive! Graphics and music are great and the gameplay was fun as well. Awesome entry!
The art style and Music Are One Of The Best. Maybe Having a Basic Tutorial Would have been a great addition.
Into the pot you go huehuehuehue ! The medieval art style is amazing, well done. Fighting a flood is a nice twist on the tower defence genre. The game is fun but it's so darn hard ! I wished the flood was comming slower, at least at the start, and perhaps towards the center rather than from left to right. The music is nice and made my head bang :smiley: . It put me just a bit off the game tough, i feel it wasn't exactly at it's place, but i loved it so i don't know what to think. Congrats you won the 2D graphics for me so far ! Keep making game !
I like the art style a lot! It was a quite chaotic game to say the least. I don't think I'm a very good bear in hell. I didn't really understand the building bit the first try so it could probably have needed some explaining. It would have been nice if the game started out a bit easier too so I got to orient myself with it instead of having water all the way up to the pot after the first second. I didn't quite understand the souls in the pot counter either, if something was meant to happen at 10 souls. I found myself with more than that quite a few times.
But again, very nice art-style!
Frickin awesome art style, I love the intro cut scene, and the gameplay is just as pretty! Like others have said, the gameplay is a bit confusing, but I eventually figured it out. It was a bit annoying how placing things didn't always work, and I'm not sure that the dragon was worth the money. The art though... That stuff was amazing, that art style will stick with me for a while, tho I don't have the skills to replicate it. I love all of the hands that added / removed things, and just the style of it all was perfect. Congrats on your game, you've nailed such a striking style! :heart:
Great music and gorgeous art! It took me a few tries to figure out what to do - but once I did I loved it!!! Really well done, it's hard but it's super cool.
nice art.I’m a programmer looking for a graphic designer to team up or a team to join and maybe work on new games, if you are interested contact me:

So gorgeous. Fantastic animation and sound work. The style reminds me of http://www.joerichardson.games/ who you should check out if you haven't. Your mood is of course much more arcade-y and intense! Is it odd I was also reminded of Midsommar?! Awesome game! Thank you so much!
