@m11 Thanks for the review. Greatly appreciated :)
Pregnant monkey with big lips collecting onions - crazy and nice)))
Well then. This was seriously something. I don't really know what to make of the premise. I loved it, and was scared by it. Once the game got going, I enjoyed the stealth mechanics and tension of trying to abduct those sweet onion babies without being flattened by their leggy parents. There's a lot I could say about UX and design, but really, I feel like this entry made up for it with its beautifully diverse OST.
Thanks for the game, I'll be dreaming about it tonight.
@adamcyounis Thanks for playing! I'm a big fan of your work. I didn't put much attention into the UI, definitely still something for me to do later. Was certainly quite a learning experience :)
Really interesting premise lolll I loved the gordon ramsey chimp in the beginning. The intensity of being chased is also quite an experience XD I think thats because a good use of ost and effects to make the moment more scary. Overall funky experience! I really wonder where the idea came from loll
@sofimei Thanks for playing! Happy that you enjoyed it :) Yeah, the funky ideas came up when I thought of a game idea where a chef needs onions so he travels to his backyard to find them, and it would have been a simple collecting game. When I showed the idea to the Modeler for this project, he had an idea to make the characters chimpanzees and to also make the onions sentient with nests and a family. We decided to carry out the idea and we've definitely got an interesting outcome! Haha
