Love the whole spin/wash system, brilliant work and well implemented! Game was simple, fun and funny!

Character controls felt a bit sticky at times, mostly the jump, but other than that, was great!

lovely work, he main character is super cool

alarathehuman 2020-10-05 23:27

the idea of game is so cool, i loved the character design

Love the graphics, the theme, and the enemy! It was snappy and fun to play. Really glad the little enemies dropped HP or else I never would have won. Fun stuff!

Playthru on Web version.

"Good, clean, humorous play with a cohesive concept for the theme."

The player character is easy to keep track with the color choice and size. The machine ridges braking up the loop were a good level design decision!

The two things that hurt the play most were:

-Tracking player bullets. The clear bubbles, their size relative to the arena and the obstacles, and their velocity weakened the experience, mainly during the spin cycle. I felt like I was blowing, well, bubbles, and not bullets of bleachy justice.

-The Camera choice. Overall it isn't bad, but for the majority of the play, the main obstacle/enemy isn't present onscreen, even running up to the top and all around the arena it was difficult to keep in-focus. This lack of presence acts against the player's main goal/focus. The henchmen help bring a bit of focus back, so overall not a huge problem.

It wasn't clear if the player had health or not at first. I went back and intentionally had the grime hit me and watched the screen until I died. Got the proper endscreen!

Good job balancing health replenishment and the pacing is great. switching between the two modes is a great idea, I would love to see a forecasting system for that.

Bonus Points for Jorgen Von Pink Mr. Clean and cats in a washing machine.

I had no idea there was so much bullethell in a washing machine! A lot of impressive variety here for a gamejam, I really liked the second phase of smaller enemies homing in

Cool concept! The audio effects fit so well to the character.

robowarrior1982 2020-10-07 20:17

Graphics, sound and effect are very nice. The movement of the camera/character is too fast i think and maybe disturbing but otherway this is a solid game with lot of polish ! propre-pubH.jpg

Nice idea, I was a little bit confused with naviagting the washing machine.

mateusboga 2020-10-07 21:28

Very nice implementation of the theme, and I thought the concept was pretty funny xD Of course my ocd does not like rotated pixels but maybe that's a me problem. It also felt a bit hard to control with the speed at which it was rotating. Overall, nice entry!

Nice idea! Liked all the pixel art and the music was cool too! I felt the pretty music clashed with the sound effects and the game moved a bit too fast to follow, but I still had fun trying this out!

pink-shard-games 2020-10-07 23:39

The game was a bit fast for me but I love the idea and how you implemented the theme. Really fun and awesome art!

celuloide 2020-10-08 07:39

Nice game! I like how you implemented the theme of the jam in the game, well done! also I really the different things that can be seen inside the "degrimer machine" (a cat! lol). It was a bit confussing at the begining because I did not know what to do (the enemy was not on sight) but overall I had a good time!! good job!

jin9310 2020-10-08 12:11

How could I forget about the washing machine when it comes to the loops! Great job you did here and fun take on the theme. Ever since my youth I wanted to try to be mr. Proper at least for a moment. Thank you for making my child dream come true.

mhm32167 2020-10-08 16:21

This is really cool! And nice to see you using Godot :)

Just a few minor things, like I didn't notice a shooting animation and the character doesn't face the way he is shooting, and there's not that much visual feedback when you hit the boss. I also had no idea I was supposed to kill the big monster initially. I think maybe a health bar would be nicer than the red number. I also didn't know what the blue things were for.

That all said, I really like this entry - unique concept, and I like to see jam games with voice-acting (although I didn't understand anything the character said!). I found it quite fun, and it definitely has potential. Nice end-screen :)

whos that handsome fellow

patchy 2020-10-09 10:01

Really cool game, love the design! I agree with @greebs , the bubbles you shoot are not very noticeable, and the small field of view makes the game a bit too clumsy

mandarad 2020-10-11 15:28

This was a cool take on the theme, nice job. I liked the aesthetic a lot, especially the transparent part so that you can see the rest of the laundry room. For me, it would've been nicer if the play area was a bit smaller. It was sometimes difficult to see what was going on.

dak001 2020-10-12 21:36

Love game idea. Really cool animations👍

emily-pitcher 2020-10-13 19:25

This is a super cute idea! I absolutely loved your interpretation of the theme. The controls felt a bit off at times but it wasn't a huge deal. Great job!

100th-coin 2020-10-14 05:04

Ha! I love the character design. Great work.

vodzik 2020-10-15 19:11

Fun game with good concept, matching theme. Only thing that bothers me is that when washing mashine was spinning, aiming did not work as I expected, but maybe it's supossed to be like that. Also I don't know what blue collectables are.

ddrkirbyisq 2020-10-18 21:04

So that's why my washing machine is always so noisy when it's running an extra heavy load....

killerkun 2020-10-19 08:23

I like the character! I had a bit of a hard time following what was actually happening and I didn't even see the boss for what felt like a couple of minutes. Really interesting concept :)

trexxak 2020-10-20 01:32

Haha, funny concept and even FUNNIER execution! Loved the clothing wobbling around and somewhat hindering your way a lot :D

tamail 2020-10-23 14:48

Such a fun concept! I love the idea, it's extremely entertaining! The controls were a bit wild and unpredictable at times but I enjoyed it a lot!
