This one's hard, have to really get used to the controls. Have no idea who those blue guys supposed to be xD Still a funny little thing :) Good job!
Nice concept! I found the controls a bit cumbersome and would have preferred simply moving with WASD (or arrow keys). It is also quite easy to just stay at one end of the car when riding and then prepare to dodge the blue guys when arriving at a station.
The blue guys clearly are cops! But wow, what a creative game! Good job!
Good game
Great game, well done!
Good job! Getting used to controls was hard, but emulates the frustration of trying to not bump into people on subway pretty well :D
I like the concept but it's a little bit slow. Nicely done anyway and i cool entry, great job :wink:
Thank you everyone for providing feedback! I am still pretty early in the stages of learning all aspects of game creation as a hobby and have a lot of growth ahead of me so hearing all and any feedback helps a lot. Learned a lot of valuable lessons from this jam!
Nice game, I wasn't a fan of the tank controls, but I get why you chose that method. I think the cops (or whatever takes up the side) were a nice touch, as you can get away with hiding over there initially but eventually you need to mingle.
awesome game! The controls were limiting, but that really ties into the theme.
Haha, nice name! I definitely didn't think about a subway when I saw the title for the first time. :smiley: Would be nice to get extra pardons when you get to a new station. Welcome to Ludum ! Enjoyed the game, a complete experience. I tried to catch the fast moving person because of the colors, thought it was some extra pardons for some reason :slight_smile:
Awesome game, I like the voice and the idea, maybe need to make the game more faster between stations because at start really need not move lol
Well done! Take a candy :candy:
Very funny game, espacially the concept, i wasnt the biggest fan of the movement controls but i love the game anyway.
Well done! Big fan of the concept and the audio had me laughing. The controls are a little unintuitive, which may or may not been on purpose
Lot of fun, I liked how the controls made things a challenge made those last second dodges feel good. It kinda gave it a fun learning curve. Great job!
I found the controls awkward at first, but I got used to them surprisingly fast. It was a pretty fun game! I liked the voice-overs a lot. I did find though if you stand in the very corner next to the line of blue people, you can pretty much just hang out there without a problem. Unless that was intentional since standing in the corner like a creeper is a good way to avoid people on the subway in real life.
Good game! Enjoyed playing this!
The controls were tricky, but this was a cool idea, and a great application of the theme!
echoing the controls being a bit strange at first, but once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy.
Cool application of the theme, and interesting concept. I liked seeing the blue guys closing up space, but it seems like that stops at a certain point. Maybe I just died too early, but it'd be interesting to see things continue to escalate a bit faster; as the pacing felt a bit slow.
Nice work!
Got 8197m, I like this game, very funny. One small suggestion for improvement is that there could be more challenge after subway starts moving, now it feels a bit quiet. I think it would be great to have more dynamic or random elements. Like someone holding a pizza accidentally dropping it on the ground and blocking a tile, or someone on a skateboard zooming around. Overall, a very good game, great job!
@nilan The original pitch was having a lot of other types of riders and overscoping/inexperience caused me to have to cut a lot of features that would have added to the variety. I also feel like it’s missing something especially in the earlier sections. Lessons learned for next time! I still did manage to sneak in a rare spawn to have some fun with it. Thanks for the feedback it’s really valuable to me!
Also thanks to everyone else that has played the game and left comments. The feedback helps me a lot on the next project. I’ve been doing my best to try out all of your games as well. Really enjoying my first ever jam experience - its been a lot of fun.
I think the tank controls are quite fitting, regular wasd probably would have made the game too easy.
Simple design but I love it.
Avoiding the people was pretty easy until I just got caught by surprise when I had 1hp left from not knowing how to play at the start. I think your points should accumulate from the very beginning because I was so confused as to what I have to do. Decent game still
@verttixpertti I completely agree and the game should have started or at least quickly gotten to a movement phase early on. I ended up hearing this from a few playtesters and it always leads to confusion on if the game is even working properly when it sits at 0 for so long. Thank you for the feedback!
Very funny concept for a game, I enjoyed it. Agreed that it was pretty easy at first, and some of the passenger AI was a bit unpredictable, but I had fun with it. Curious to see what happens if the screen fills up with the blue guys
Nice and simple. However the movement controls was more annoying than it needed to be.
Nice take on the theme! I liked the voice acting as well. I think an absolute control scheme, rather than having to turn would have been nice. Overall, well done!
Pretty nice game, I like the gameplay and art style ,good job:)
This game is truly captivating. I liked it a lot, and the idea is fantastic. Stick to your current trajectory, and you'll undoubtedly become a professional
I really enjoyed the game; it's quite simple but has its unique twist. The gameplay is quite original, in my opinion. Keep it up. I won't mention all the shortcomings and bugs in the game as they have been described above
