Nice theme!

pe7e 2023-01-09 18:25

Nice game, once you harvested both organs are you still supposed to gain wrath?

chiranjiv 2023-01-09 18:49

@pe7e, no you should not.

pe7e 2023-01-09 18:53

@chiranjiv Okey, maybe I was to close to the chute.

chaos-1001 2023-01-09 20:37

Nice, The collisions are a bit rough, but I really like the Main Character sprite and the splash arts

chiranjiv 2023-01-09 21:24

@pe7e if you encounter that again let us know, it was known bug, but we fixed it before release. Thank you for playing, :D

chiranjiv 2023-01-09 21:25

@chaos-1001 Thank you for feedback. Will look into it.

jujus 2023-01-09 23:53

The assets looks really good :))))) but the backgrounds are kinda off :(

dicemeister 2023-01-10 00:07

interesting take on the theme. I had some trouble getting it to actually harvest the organs, but other than that it was a cute concept.

vipaka 2023-01-10 01:01

Mechanics were a little rough around the edges but nice concept.

geraldfingburke 2023-01-10 03:23

I had to face Dr. Shelley's Wrath and, ngl, I ain't scared.

darzu 2023-01-10 03:35

Love the color coding on organs and tools! Very clever interpretation of the theme haha

midorimelody 2023-01-10 05:22

I really liked the music. This game was cute.

ironhandmd 2023-01-10 07:42

great game! the controls are tight and responsive , the mechanics are easy to understand , it has good learning curve, specific tools are needed for specific organs, and must be harvested on time, the game is appropriate with the theme, overall I enjoyed playing! congratulations! keep it up!

jackypark9852 2023-01-10 07:44

Nice drawings, I especially like the cover. I hoped the tool sound effect would be more diverse, the organ sprites look cool, but it was hard to see because of the tint. The top conveyor belt has a weird hitbox where you can't walk near it from the bottom. Cool game!

efilheim 2023-01-10 11:59

Nice splash cover. The concept is cool, I'm a bit sad it don't go further more !

soonthespoon 2023-01-10 12:11

Organ harvesting - great idea! I wish the camera would be more zoomed in, so I could see all those nice pixel arts a bit better. Good story and music, good job!

riesyeti 2023-01-10 16:14

Fun game! Games like this one are really hard to balance properly and here I didn't find it too easy or too hard, so great job on that!

The title screen looks rad as heck! (The game over screen too!) the background in game is a bit lacking though. I ran into that issue while making my own game this jam, and my solution was just to add a repeating polka dot pattern. It's not a perfect solution, but it prevents the background from simply being a flat single color.

I think it's a bit interesting how the final score includes a lot of decimals. You might want to truncate it to just one or two. On the topic of small improvements, the quit button on the title screen also starts the game, ha!

I wish the controls were explained somewhere in game, with either a tutorial, or just off to the side of the screen until you've interacted with everything. (or at least on the itch page somewhere.) I know the controls are mentions here on the ludum dare page, but it's nice to have them mentioned in game.

I think the gameplay is a little too slow. I'm not sure if it ramps up in difficulty, and if it does it needs to happen sooner. The bodies on the conveyors move at an incredibly slow rate, and honestly, after a scoring a few points I lost interest in playing. I don't want to sound too negative, I just wish there was some more to do.

The artwork in game is cute, and I love the scooping sound effects. ha! Nice work.

The audio was bopping and the idea was quite good. It took me a while to recognize that the tools are color coded. The confusion wasn't helped that this page has the tools for lungs and kidneys swapped as far as I can tell. The biggest problem for me was that lines didn't seem to accelerate at all, so there were multiple times when I was just standing there with no organs to harvest. It's important in the kind of games you can't actually beat that the difficulty ends the run before the player's patience does.

ekaktusz 2023-01-10 23:35

Nice work on the graphics, especially on the title screen / splash image. I didn't expect to play that much, but it was quite entertaining. The controls / interacting on the edges were a little clunky sometimes but it could be related to my browser. Had fun with it, nice job! :)

offdutyextractors 2023-01-11 07:25

Its a little evident that the time spent on art wasn't distributed evenly. This had some of the best and worst art I've seen from this ludum dare which is quite impressive. The gameplay was enjoyable at first but it was way too easy. And the difficulty never scaled so most people probably don't see the game over screen unless they try to.

pndaa 2023-01-11 09:43

I don't know if there is an ending. I played until I had more than 20 points. It was fun at the begining, then a little repetitive, perhaps I played too long :D.

The game is a too easy. I never had to sprint, which I think tells something is wrong with the game balance.

The game is understandable without reading the instruction, good job on that. And the audio fits well. Good work!

nullval 2023-01-11 16:40

It's a really fun concept, while a bit janky with some collisions and button presses it turned out to be quite entertaining :) I have to agree with @pndaa that I didn't feel particularly challenged at any point during the game, but honestly rather too easy than too hard.

Also the art was a bit mixed, some of it was really good, but other felt more like a placeholder. The sound effects for the organs and the tools were really great btw! good job!

tinykidtoo 2023-01-11 17:53

Had some issues with the harvesting (can't harvest from the underside, not clear that the button needs to be held). Once I figured it out it became a fun frantic game of prioritization. Great Job! I love the sound and the art, they remind me a bit of tapper.

helen 2023-01-11 20:04

I liked the graphics and music and had fun to play :)

sean-tang 2023-01-13 02:09

The sfx fits the game perfectly and the theme is really cool

poboy 2023-01-13 09:01

I liked the music! Game concept is a nice base and can probably be adapted upon, but definitely asking for some sort of difficulty progression + mechanics that help you deal with that. For example maybe the organs start coming in faster, and instead of making your way to the chute you can throw the organs from across the room into the chute (saving you time if you can pull it off).

Quick tip for Unity; when you're doing pixel graphics, you'll likely want to draw it in the native resolution of the screen (so that there isn't scaling), and if you need scaling then in your image settings set Compression to None. That way you don't get that blurring.

Nice work!

moosey 2023-01-13 19:32

A fun little game! The music and graphics are really lovely- I'd love to see this expanded some more! Great work!

dorzhieva-yana 2023-01-14 09:59

Sad that i cant win, but game was tense! cool gameover art

witchgf 2023-01-20 12:31

The visuals look a little diverse in style, but player model is kinda cute doe

n0va 2023-01-21 12:36

Was a bit hard to figure out how to carry and deposit the organs as there was no indicator if one was holding it.

On the other hand I liked the bgm track and the art. The chara one plays as is cute.

robobarbie 2023-01-23 00:12

yessss another organ harvester! i liked the sprite details and the organ details especially.

fluburbio 2023-01-27 19:53

Great use of the theme! I would have liked to be able to harvest organ from the bottom of the conveyor belt, but besides that, it's a fun time :)
