Foody the Robot

(Same feedback from twitter, but I also wanted to leave it here) I wish this was a compo entry so I could see how you handled the dice. The mood was really consistent and fun. I love how simple this was. I played it like 4 times and couldn't get past 7 yet. I really like how you handled the lighting in the 2D environment. The only thing really lacking is the quality of the 3D scene, but that is only because of how hard you went in the 2D scene. There weren't any major bugs or issues I had with the game. Overall, this was a really solid entry!Capture.PNG

Thanks for playing and the review, @trabasura! Yeah the 3D was scene very rushed... the dice took a lot of time, especially DICE <-> Foods to click system. And all in all, it was somehow very janky and non-dynamic process and code this time.

But at least I got to publish it in time for the Jam!

A clever game of memory! At one point a dice rolled off-screen so I couldn't see what it landed on, that was unfortunate. The robot seemed to move around between the products in an inefficient way, and sometimes lingered at a spot for a while, which didn't affect the game but it struck me as odd. I ultimately completed to 5 products after about three tries, and then messed up on the 6.

Cute art, though I am not usually a fan of mixed-resolution styles, it doesn't bother me here so much. I liked the lighting effects and the music was simple but soothing. Nice effort!

That was really fun! I only managed 6 items at once, but I think that's enough to properly compliment the game (>:D)! I loved that you used rigidbodies for the dice, cause I think it'd be a ton harder to have gotten the same effect with pixel art! Really great, I liked the generic narrator voice! XD

I love narrator's speeches. Simple idea of memory game is implemented in cool and unexpected way. I played several times and always faced with the same issue - when there are 3+ cube - one of cubes is falling almost out of screen and you need to guess what is actually on this cube.

But it general i would say it looks amazing. Especially 2d screen. Lights and visual work good.

I like the "atmosphere" of the game, the setting and the character reminded me about robot character from Undertale.

What a nice little memory game. It is not always easy to see some of the rolled products correctly on the dice (since the icon under another angle can be somewhat unrecognisable at times), but otherwise liked the narrator voice and the atmosphere

Great concept, well-executed! Are the dice actual physics objects?

madr 2022-10-04 19:07

@ccollider Thank You! The dice are physics objects with RiggidBodies, when they are being thrown up force and torque is being added. Each side has a collider that gives back an int with an opposite sides result.

Really nice entry, pretty fun as well.

Graphics were very cute.

The only thing that i thought was kind of annoying was the size of the dice, it was kinda small and depending on which food it landed on i couldn't identify exactly which one was it since some were very similar. Would be nice to show a larger version of the image after the dice rolled.

Nice drawing and interesting idea! I think the music is a bit loud. And it turned out so cool!

jejkobb 2022-10-05 08:26

Love the graphics, love the little witty comments the computer makes haha. Fun game and well done!!!

deltamain 2022-10-05 12:15

Pretty fun tbh! However I failed on level 4 because one of the dice got offscreen.

The robot and its speech is so good and funny. Better graphic (at least on the dice) should improve the experience from game. The music helps the atmosphere. Nice work.

mbrezu 2022-10-05 16:01

Loved the sound and mood! The food textures should be a little more detailed, I was struggling to identify the items - or is that intentional?

Well done!

Very fun! The narrator reminded me of GLaDOS from Portal. The pixel artwork was really good. The switch to 3d was a little odd to me, but the dice rolling looked nice. I really enjoyed this game!

madr 2022-10-05 20:08

@mbrezu It was not, but that's where we are at :D

@shimmerscale I agree about the odd switch to 3D - mistakes ware made...

I really like your new type of memory game.

The voice actor of your game played a big role in the mood of the game. That voice made me feel like I was a lab mouse throughout the game.

The only minor drawback to this game is that it's a bit tedious to wait for the resulting verdict after I've made my selections for items.

ggross 2022-10-08 01:56

The voice(of the robot woman) is really cool! And I like the concept of memory game. Well done!

I met a bug that dices could run out of the screen, then I will never know what is the correct product list XD

akkara 2022-10-08 18:41

Really funny and quite a struggle. 6 products was what doomed me, even though I had 2 pairs ^^". I love the idea and the narration was perfect. Well done!

vimmagic 2022-10-09 01:43

Very cute! The rolling of the dice looks quite nice, and most of the gameplay is smooth. I got up to 7 products. Great job!

la-bread 2022-10-09 02:50

Nice use of 3D objects alongside the 2D gameplay, my only issue is that some sprites accidentally look the same (Im sure that's a part of the challenge) I do think the memory game is pretty cool tho.

jonathang 2022-10-17 20:49

This game looks nice, and the narration really sets the mood. I did encounter one of the bugs though, it made me lose as soon as I selected the correct products.
