VERY nice music, very atmospheric, also the art looks polished and fits with the atmosphere that the music gives. I had a bit of a hard time understanding how the game works, and I couldn't get to the feeding part though. Good job @sunnray , very impressive for 1 person! :smile_cat:
I swear I tried, but I could not get this thing working. I downloaded, opened, tried, failed, read the description, tried some connection and nothing worked :cry: It's beautiful and with a nice bgm. But I found very hard to understand. (Lazy King - https://leonmff.itch.io/lazy-king)
nice graphics and mood! i would provide more tutorialzation on how to avoid the red food
Sorry, but I don't understand what to do. I connect two monsters and enter does not start food transportation. Can't get why it is so. However, graphics are nice and music is atmospheric.
I think there's the base for an interesting logic puzzle here, but I couldn't figure out in which order the food is sent. Or is it just random? That said, I really like the music and art style!
I couldn't figure it out, but I loved the graphics and music.
The dark theme fits well!
Interesting game ^^, the music is really cool :D
Like many others here I liked the atmosphere of the game and how the music added to it. I also had trouble playing the game itself, though. It took me a very long time to realize that I was supposed to make a connection FROM the source of the food itself to actually be able to send food down the links. From a user experience standpoint, I'd recommend making this particular connection two-way. It also seemed to be random which pieces of food went which ways, which made it seem impossible to control what food goes to the fireflies and what food goes to the end of the level.
Overall, with these fixes accounted for, you would have a pretty good game. Good job!
Fun game. Really liked the music.
Great work on the music and visuals but I couldn't seem to get the hang of this game.
I really like the sprite work on this as well as the concept. Nice entry!
I think this is a puzzler I'd love, but it kept confusing me that the level moved on when I didn't figure it out. I like the look and sound.
The logic of this game is really hard to grasp. I actually doubt whether it was implemented correctly, but if it was then it's lacking any sort of coherent explanation. Moreover, it doesn't seem like the game really cares about the amount of red dots you feed the monster, thus not giving you any fail states for you to stumble against which would force you to understand the game... it just goes on to the next "Stage" no matter what. Even if explaining it through text is too much, you should've added "tutorial" levels and introduced the mechanics gradually. There should've been prebuilt networks with fixed nodes/connections which you had to complete, so you could observe how an erroneous network fails, then just had to add your own little tweaks to make it work. Only THEN, after you've grasped those mechanics, should it let you start with an empty field. Anyways, I sort of get what you were going for, and it might work if only it were properly conveyed, slowly enough, and without rushing through levels which the player hasn't solved through their understanding of the game but out of sheer luck.
I really struggled to understand this but gave it a good try! I think less text explanation and more diagrammatic information may help. Nice mood and visuals though :)
Hello, nice idea with combining the fireflies and spiders! I had trouble figuring out the order the food comes in, though. Very atmospheric and pretty.
Music and art are awesome and atmospheric! But adding a small screenshot with explanation of an end result would be nice. It's really hard to figure out what to do without visual tutorial.
