This game is really cool, i love the concept! I'm perfectionist, i will be annoying sorry but it's to help you ^^

I think you can add some juicy, maybe when ant spawn don't let them shoot directly, let for the player one or two seconds given that you can't dodge. The break it's too sudden! Great job

It's fun to play this game but there is just a bunch of nothing between waves where you just sit and listen to music (pretty good sounds btw :smile: ). Maybe ants should spawn constantly or raft building could start between waves with collected pieces. Also I always wanted to shoot by pressing button once but unfortunately you have to hold it. Oh, and voiced tutorial is a neat part :)

Very interesting concept, good music, i had fun to play your game =)

I like the voice! Very nice and clever. Did not manage to play again without rebooting the game.

Wow! This game has a voiceover, which is impressive. The gameplay has a clever concept and is challenging, which makes it enjoyable to play. You could definitely make a full game out of this idea.

Music is great, I think it's so cool that you made this game for two jams but I don't see how it fits with the theme for this one. I tried to shoot by clicking but I didn't realize you had to hold the mouse. Fun game :) The voiced tutorial and the wavy background are both awesome!

I'm a be lazy and just copy my post.

Nice, I like this game, I like that it freezes when you have to put a tile, I'm bad at action games so it would be a nightmare otherwise.

The first time I played it it turned dark all the sudden and was really hard to see I thought it was because I took too much damage but the second time it never did. not sure what that was. Had fun and I think this has potential. I like that you end up being your own demise as it's your fault that the board is clunky.

voiced tutorial! 10/10

gameplay is great. although, as game progresses, it becomes easier, because the raft is bigger, which is weird in this case. also it would be much exciting to have more bullets coming, like constantly coming.

The music is a good vibe. Liked that the game pauses and gives you time to think about which direction to build your platform. Cool that the tutorial was also voiced!

First: voice over for the tutorial is cool but still very abstract when not seing screeshots of the game ^^'

Next: I liked the game, really got caught in. The music really made me think of Bomberman Hero's soundtrack (maybe with less unplayable drum parts haha) and that's really cool!

Not bad at all, it's nice with a voiceover for the tutorial. The waves of enemies are too intense for my slow reaction speed.

juzdepeche 2023-01-10 16:05

Yo this game is hard loool

Really cool game mechanic where you can upgrade and change your terrain

I love the soundtrack.

I like how a spider is my anti-virus:

I like the mechanics of growing your platform, but the bullets of antcats were too hard to dodge at times. Anyway nice entry :)

schmalex 2023-01-10 16:21

Really nice game and wow you set up a voiced-over tutorial. Only thing I would maybe tweak a bit is the difficulty. It feels like after you play for a bit it becomes easier rather than harder. Nevertheless, very neat game! My little pet jumping spider now wants to become an antivirus when she grows up haha.

noskro 2023-01-10 19:23

Cool game. extending your platform with special powers works great. But the constant firing from the ants is very stressfull (in a positiveway). Only criticism is that sometime sthe shooting didn't work for me

adamsmccall 2023-01-10 21:57

I love having Tails explaining stuff to me. The tutorial is not really clear sadly, even after reading I was a bit lost as to how I am supposed to play exactly. It was fun when I started understanding though, great work !

harlow 2023-01-11 12:05

Really love the idea of expanding the platform! Had a bunch of fun with this. Had a bit of trouble reading the score sometimes, the combination of the color and the orange tile aesthetic made it a bit hard for me.

senso 2023-01-11 14:56

Play and you are in no time to think react ! I like this but can imagine some want some time to react to what there. Real nice music and fun mechanics do think its al little to hard for a jam player :)

tetrapteryx 2023-01-12 13:01

It might be nice to start out the game with a little time to get oriented and move around a tile or two before enemies spawn, I felt overwhelmed at first with all the projectiles coming at me before I understood what to do. Once I got going, though, it was interesting to experiment with the effects of the different tiles! I also like the voice acted tutorial, that's a nice bit of polish to see in a jam game!

pauljs 2023-01-12 17:52

63 high score! Congrats on create a simple idea that totally fit the theme! Very good entry!

jitspoe 2023-01-13 01:37

Made it 128! Had fun playing on stream. Pretty challenging. One thing that would be nice is if the ants that just spawned in didn't all spawn in firing. It's a bit overwhelming and sometimes unfair, but other than that, the concept seemed solid.

papabirb 2023-01-13 23:48

I kind of wish the tutorial was more in-depth and maybe let me read at my own pace instead of reading it out to me, though I appreciate the effort in voice acting, had kind of a 90s radical vibe. I didn't really understand what my goal was other than build a raft and don't die. Or if build a raft and don't die is the goal, that would be good to make clear. I thought I was supposed to save the day as the anti-virus so I kept trying to build a raft to the ants to attack them before I realized I could just shoot them with my web too haha. Not sure what this has to do with the theme "harvest," but maybe you chose to prioritize Mini Jam 123's theme over LD52's theme, which is fine since LD52 theme is optional anyway.

mangoworks 2023-01-14 15:20

@papabirb Thanks from the the feedback. we interested the theme harvesting in the way of gathering because you harvest the tiles
