As a game it is a bit boring, but the animals are very cute.
"Roly-poly farm animals" is a very cute aesthetic!
I think is simple and fun!
Very simple game mechanics but effective. It's funny and light hearted and made me smile as soon as I saw the title screen. The cute graphics and catchy music support this nicely and the sound effects do their job. The main default for me is that it's not very clear at time as to why you get points and why you're losing them. Also it doesn't feel like the difficulty progression could be smoothed out, like it could start slow then progressively get more hectic. Right now it just instantly gets harder past ~4 animals in. Some more variety would be nice like maybe more types of animals and different characteristics for each of them. A few ideas there: - Weight could be a factor in rotation speed or how grounded they are when they land - Once they stand different animals could move differently - You get more points when an animal is harder to balance.
Otherwise a fun and uplifting game :).
The looks, feel and mood of the game are superb! I'm a sucker for this kind of art style. I think the difficulty progression could be smoothed out but overall interesting game
Very adorable art style and the music was quite fun to listen to. A couple notes I had. The pigs I could easily tell which way was down but the cows feet blended in to them too much making them a bit more difficult to orient correctly. Also the ability to move animals would be nice rather than just pick up and rotate them. Often I would put them down and instantly be knocked over again by one directly next to it. I'm also not sure what the bells did? I won the first time without using them and then went back again but they seem to just slow everything for a split second? Didn't really seem useful to me. Anyway, good job!
Would love a macOS build if you can make one! :^)
Really love the idea of the game and had a fun time with it! It's very solid premise that tied in well with the theme, and the rotation mechanics were solid, I always felt like I had control over them! The music was a very solid fit, though I found the sound effects a bit too loud and I wasn't in love with the bell effect. I also felt it was a bit short, but it would make a wonderful idea to expand upon for a post-jam version! Awesome work!
