@prora: Right! I'll need to add a bit of an explanation to the description, sorry!
The things that are still there - which have "0 / X" above them - can be carried by that many units. You are supposed to put them where it says "Weight: 0 / 10". Send however many units are required there, once it is filled up, left-click the thing. Now it should be selected and you can move it around like a normal unit.
I should have made a visual distinction between the gates and the carryable things...
I liked the very idea of a puzzle in which you need to gradually gather friends. The only type I would rather do in 2D. This is due to the fact that sometimes the elements overlap. It was like that with pencils and an eraser. I was poking at the pencils, thinking they needed to be moved. Overall, a good game.
简单而有趣的游戏，其实一开始我没看出来一大团白色的东西和需要重力开启的开关分别是什么，直到我集齐了小精灵搬运了足够的东西开启了开关，我才意识到那是一个垃圾桶，而一开始的东西是代表垃圾的纸团，总之很有想法A simple and interesting game. Actually, at first, I didn't realize what the big white thing and the switch that required gravity to activate were. It wasn't until I gathered enough fairies to carry items and activate the switch that I realized the big white thing was a trash can, and the initial white stuff represented crumpled paper representing trash. Overall, it was quite imaginative.
Absolutely loved how this was presented, the camera zooms were a great touch. Enjoyed the gameplay, although perhaps another route or two to throw away the rubbish could have added to the experience.
Really enjoyed it! Not 100% sure what to do after opening the trash can, but I loved the feeling of escalation as I got more mites and the diorama presentation, which is really cute
Good game! It hits the theme in an inspiring way. BTW, I also have a jam work. If you can have a try and leave some suggestions, we will be very grateful! THX! :smiley: )
Love it! The animations/cutscenes are much more than you usually see in 3d submissions. Besides an in-game explanation of the controls, it would have been nice to have some sound/music. Even some low-effort sound effects generated with online tools tend to improve the gameplay experience quite a bit.
In the beginning of the Jam I saw a few comments about how everyone would make a Pikmin clone. But this is the first game I've come across that is inspired by that game. Such a lovely entry! Beautifully crafted with the cute level design, creatures and the cinematics! Just the right amount of problem solving. I justed wish there were more levels. Amazing work, one of my favorites!
Managed to throw away some trash!
Anyway, this was awesome! I loved all the little cutscenes whenever you did something important, they really added to the experience! The premise here was great, and I liked the little dust mote, especially how they had different speeds (one of them kept getting left behind when carrying the crumpled paper, which was a bit annoying but also endearing). I didn't understand how carrying things worked until I re-read your description - I kept trying to just right click again after picking something up, only for the motes to drop it right back - but I can more than understand the lack of a proper tutorial due to the time limitation :) Overall, I really enjoyed it, amazing entry!
