I like the intro, the music and the graphics. I am not totally sure what I am suppose to do, but I still had fun trying the game.

So, there is now a game with Shadoks and Gibis in 3D, my life is complete ! :)
That Shadok in the introduction looked really great, i'm a bit sad we don't them more during gameplay.
Maybe it can be hard to figure out what to do for people that are not familiar with Shadok science and physics.
Game works nice and fit the theme, nice work !
Your planet looks like a pizza crust :) Sliced square pizza. It's funny for me.
As I understand, need to balance the height of the pieces using weight of Gibis? Perhaps it would be better if Shadoks were visible.
The intro was amazing, camera movements and music. The fact that you added a backstory instead of just saying these rise, these fall like what lazy me would do :P But you inspired me, I will now try to make a backstory for my future games hehe
Apart from that, the gameplay is fun, but sometimes I think the map just balances it all and nothing happens. And hardness in game is never stable. Sometimes its so easy that you just wait, just some minor movements every 3 seconds etc. Gibi Committee for Shadok Preservation 20.04.2020 14_50_01.png
LES SHADOKS :D
@alexey-akulovich @jk5000 @khopa Thanks for the feedback! I admit I should have included some precise instructions or/and a tutorial! Yes, the goal is to set the gibis on the ascending pieces to prevent them from flying away. As the shadoks on the other side move, you have to move the gibis accordingly and fast enough so that they don't fall into darkness. I'll try to give more information next time! Also I'm kinda glad the planet looks like pizza.
@ytaha Thank you for these details and the screenshot! Yes, I noticed a strong lack of balance too but sadly I wasn't able to correct it before the end of the jam. I may get back on it later and try to make it more fun!
Cheers to all the Shadok enthusiasts, and thank you for all the kind and useful feedback!
The game is interesting, but somehow on my screen, it looks very dark, not like in your video. Anyway, it's a great entry for the newcomer.
@bereg Oh! I'm sorry to hear that and have no idea of what happened. I'll try the game on other devices and see if the problem shows up. Thank you for notifying me!
Great work! It was a fun game and it looks great! :D
Really original game. It's fun, introduction is great ! I like your Gibis and your music too Great Job
I also had the same problem as bereg. I can only see the front few blocks and the rest are too dark. The music was nice, though.
@splicedev is it still dark after restarting the level or choosing another one? I might have an idea to fix it but I guess I can't modify the game before the play+rate ends. Thank you greatly for pointing it out and sorry for the inconvenience!
Wasn't too sure what I was doing. It seemed interesting though.
@ramo It's still dark after restarting. The game started out zoomed in and the lighting was fine. After the game started, the camera zoomed out a little and half the map darkened. The fog settings are probably just too strong.
@splicedev Thank you again! I was thinking it might be the fog too. Your description will help me a lot!
Having a demo video is a brilliant idea, allows everyone regardless of OS to see what your game is like :smiley: I really enjoyed the intro and the slow realisation that the Shadoks won't sit still. Good cartoony style characters and space physics :thumbsup:
I like it, good game, and its simple to understand how to play, the graphics are good and Gibi is the best
Nice idea! I hadn't heard of Shadok before, but now I am tempted to find out...
I sadly was unable to play it because there is no mac or HTML5 version. But, I did watch your video. Good graphics, nice music, good sfx. I love this concept. It's simple yet probably hard to master. A good short play. Good work.
High absurdity is one of my accoutrements or whatever. I have played and enjoyed your game, and rated it as such. Reciprocation would result in appreciation.
