This really had a great feel to it, and despite all the dodging is quite relaxing. I usually get to around ~50k before losing everyone in one go. Interesting take on the theme.

@kr4ft3r Thank you! That is a pretty decent score actually.
Had a lot of fun. I like to the sound part. Especially, the one that is related to the hit of the unit.
Awesome game! I had a lot of fun playing it! :)
Nice game! Don't have much feedback other than it gets too hard for me real quick.

I had so much fun! It just works so well! The only thing I have to say is that I thought the bottom part was an obstacle until I had no choice but to go there, but maybe I'm just dumb lol
@lastuck alot of people though that was ground, which means that I telegraphed that poorly :/ .
Holy shit that was fun.

Concept is funny, the execution is great. Movement is smooth - you always feel in control. The rising panic as your tower of tiny people grows and the rocks get more numerous is perfectly balanced.
LD54's best use of Brahms - I absolutely guarantee it!
@teddyreid thank you so so much. And yes, I do enjoy classical music and I simply had to use Hungarian Dance No. 5 :)
This game was really good, I do think the shield was more OP than the reset. Very fun and a great score system.
Fun game, I feel like it would be better if you had to "catch" the passengers, so you could position them better.
@ogelgames that was originally planned but the physics kept bugging out, so I had to scrap it, also I think it would be rather hard to sharpshoot your people onto the platform with all of the stuff flying around. thanks for playing!
Pretty fun, like the audio especially. I would have liked if you could move the passengers before they spawn, they tended to spawn in the same place. It didn't seem random. Over all pretty good.
very fun stressful game. Also the soundtrack was very fitting.

Yippee!!
@fusionnist Incredible score. I don't ever reach 100k sometimes.
I was first looking at it- Oh well, its a game... To then very quickly become like 'this is actually pretty fun!' Which was very nice, since I be tired. It kept me entertained, and the music definitely added a ton to it. Simple and quick to learn with a little trial and error. I definitely started getting more worried as the tower rose! Gonna keep it open to see when I feel more awake if I can better my scorescore gaming thingy.png
A bit slow to start but it quickly become hard ! nice game I enjoyed it
A fun game with lots of humor! To be honest, I kind of enjoyed deliberately making the passengers crashing on the obstacles and seeing the effects when they dropped :see_no_evil: Is there any other cruel guy like me? :eyes: Overall it's a great game and I had lots of fun playing it!
Good game, I especially like your choice of music! Add the freesound link maybe.
@dining-philosopher thanks for playing! Forgot to post a credit for the ost. I downloaded the audio from this video, and I slightly pitched it down in the engine. https://youtu.be/O192eo9zbT4?si=z19BMY_3ATdZ2MkK
Ahah, it's a very fun game :) music fits ideally
Day 12 of rating :) - It’s me! **59150** - good game with a strange, but fun gameplay. I really like the music background because it is sometimes fun - sometimes crazy - sometimes quiet. Who is the compositor? I forgot about him. The controls work well as expected - and the difficulty curve is well made. I think that this game could be better if the passengers fall from the sky aleatory, and not directly on the platform (like Parachute Rescue). And what about a highscore online? You made a solid entry. Really addictive. Thank you. I wish you the best ++
@geckoo1337 That is a pretty damn good score! The song name is "Hungarian Dance No. 5" by Johanes Brahms, probably my favorite classical piece :) .Yes passengers were supposed to fall from the sky and you catch them, however the physics kept bugging out and I figured that trying to catch them mid air with all of the stuff flying around would be too difficult. And as for the online highscore, I'm just learning godot so I don't know how to implement that, and it's probably too late to implement it now. Thank you! Wish you luck on your own game dev journey, hope we meet again :)
@skvader-418 You cannot understand if you are not french :)

@geckoo1337 .... Well.... that was something, still doesn't change the fact that this is the best classical song in all of history.
opera_2023-10-15_18-20-08.png Pretty fun game, it was interesting as a "bullet-hell" type of game trying to keep your dudes alive but I do have a few notes. The spawning of the dudes was a little bit too random imho, I quickly ended up in this scenario where it was hard to stay alive because I had these unwieldy towers built from the first 10 guys or so. I would have probably checked for how high a particular part of the stack is and to choose another location if it's too high above the lowest segment. ApplicationFrameHost_2023-10-15_18-20-38.png
Also I think I would have liked a small grace period after getting hit, the increased lives count powerup effectively wasn't useful at all since by the time I died I think I had something like 22 guys I could lose before getting a gameover, and I lost all of those 22 lives in about 0.5 seconds because of how dense my platform was at the time. Take or leave that point of advice since it does mess with the game's balance but it would have been nice as an alternative if I only lost one life whenever any number of dudes get killed, have 1 second of invincibility, and have the final score include a bonus for the number of guys you had on your platform at the end for an example.
All in all I had a really fun couple of minutes playing the game, with a few small tweaks I could imagine it being pretty solid especially for a game jam project
