Nice game, I love the premise and seeing people request pentagram rooms and stuff absolutely killed me lmao. Some of the objectives are kind of unclear, like I put down everything I think but then I still only got partial money. Still, funny game tho!
I quite like this game, love the types of rooms! Game play is fun and I like the music! Good game!
Good follow-through on the concept. Your interface design feels pretty polished, and the aliens with names are a nice touch. There were a few times I thought I had definitely satisfied the requirements, but lost points. Maybe check off requests live as the player completes them, so they know for sure. Otherwise, good job.
Very fun concept, and works well!
Nice game, it's hard to not loose money when you roll a little map set ! I liked the art and little creatures on the bottom left they are cute !
Interesting concept and presentation. Music was pleasant and the characters and their requests are charming.
As others mentioned, some more feedback when fulfilling requirements would be welcome. And balancing the maps with the requirements would be nice since I kept getting either impossible requests or trivial requests.
This was really good! For a compo game it was absolutely fantastic. My only gripe is how some orders were straight up impossible (like, # of torture chambers > 3, and # of bloody rooms = 2) Other than that, I can really see this becoming a full game if you are willing to go through with it. Great job!
A good idea, but it was difficult to understand the rules initially, there wasn’t enough tutorial.
Great, great concept. Amazing stuff. I had some times where I'm sure I fulfilled the request but still lost (or got a partial). Not sure what I'm doing wrong or whether it's bugged. GJ!
I love the idea and the Concept. Also nice music and funny Monsters! Like everyone already Said: it is Hard Not to loose Money. It seems to me that there is no Game Over. I ended the Game with -3200. :)
Very nice concept & game, although it seems like some task are impossible, like I need > 4 blood rooms, exactly 5 household tiles, but there are only 5 tiles in total. Also the list of restrictions can get so long that it overflows to the bottom.
Neat concept. The game seems fun but it's a bit too hard. The timer runs out and you can barely fulfill a couple of requests. I think one thing that can improve the gameplay a lot is to not have the adding walls mechanic at all and make it so that you just need to place room blocks, and connected blocks count as one room. Other than that, the game is interesting and the art is really nice. Well done!
Good game, interesting concept, and graphically nice, it's just frustrating sometimes to be blocked by randomness and not be able to fulfill certain conditions. I don't know if it's by choice or by lack of time, but both cases are understandable. And that doesn't stop your game from being very nice, well done ;)
I really love the concept. The graphics are nice, sound effects are a little too high, music is cool. The interface is easy to understand, and works well. I had a bug, I regulary have a correctly filled request counted as not validated, I did't get why. Congrats for your entry, it's very good !
This is awesome! The UI is very intuitive, it felt to me like a cooking game and house planning game combined, so cool! The graphics are wonderful, the vibe is immaculate, I think the time pressure might be a little too much, and I'm not sure if some impossible requests were impossible on purpose (or maybe I am misinterpreting them), but I kind of liked having to judge a request first to determine if it's even worth my time to try and help the customer out, that kind of thinking shows how invested I got into the world of the game after playing through a few days, overall such a good job!!
This is a very interesting game. I really enjoyed the concept and the Alien requests. I did get a request that seemed impossible (4 bloody rooms, <3 bloody rooms), but other than that I really enjoyed the game.
The game was cool ! It was original, once the game is understood (it took me a few minutes, but it's ok, even without an unboxing) it all flows really well.. It could be nice to make the timer a bit longer, it really took me out of the game a few times as I was getting hyped. Still a solid project. GG !
Nice unique concept. Took me a few minutes to figure out what I was supposed to be doing, but it all made sense when I realized there were different tabs with room types.
I love the concept here, but it's frustrating how a lot of the requests you're given seem to be flat-out impossible (like being asked to put in 6 of a room type on a floor plan that has only five tiles). Building walls also feels just a little finicky - maybe the hotspots for drawing rooms should be larger, or highlight on hover? (Or both?)
Very originally and very impressed with the fact something like this was coded. Has a lot of potential but to be honest, it was a bit confusing or felt a bit unfair. I understand it probably couldn't fit into the jam but a few precoded guided levels baked in to start would have been easier for the player to understand. Other than that, I love the fact the little characters change, the different personality and room choices, and the nicely done UI and usability of the actual features.
Great entry!
Also I recognize some of these from kenney assets. If you're not using your own assets, please opt out of the category that is not of your own creation! I don't know if the UI and other features are your own assets either
Was confusing at the start but eventually learnt the controls and the objective.
Personally, I didn't really like the gameplay, especially when a lot of the requests are just physically impossible to fully fulfil. However the characters, graphics and music were really good and nice and I found the unusual assortment of rooms, especially the bloody rooms funny.
I just don't get it. There are no rooms named _Bloody_ and _Household_. The UI looks overwelming. And there is no way to tell where those 750 points came from. Until which hour can I still play? A lot of unclarities. One time I had to fill 8 tiles, while having only 5 (what?). However, the music fits the game for sure and I think there is some potential.
I also felt a little confused at the beginning, but I think I got the hang of it? I liked the cute characters in the corner, and they gave it the most polish. I thought the little book of rooms was a nice UI touch as well. I wish I didn't also have to draw the rooms - I just didn't understand how that fit into the rest of the gameplay. I liked the little diddy playing in the background. A little more of a tutorial perhaps? Regardless, solid entry for a weekend of coding! Well done :)
