Really looking forward to HTML version!
the artist did some great work!! The graphics look so pleasant, the creatures look so cute ^.^
A stylish and cute mini game has been released. If we disregard a few minor flaws, it's my favorite in this jam in terms of atmosphere. %)
Very cozy art stile! Really love the graphics
I like the style and idea of the game, the monsters are very nice they are like little seals and the game is beautiful in color, the village is very cozy
Sorry, I didn't have time to finish the final part of the game. We are going to drop new version with endgame statistics and small tutorial. Keep in touch!
UPD: So, finally we made an update. Check itch version. CHANGELOG: - added endgame screen with statistics - added tutorial screens in the beginning - added more fields in HUD - added target grab delay - increased impact force
@kwendey @cliva @kiv @lisart Thank you all for your kind words! I am very happy that you like my art
this style reminds me of Undertale, soo cool and cute
Very nice graphics with subtle details. Sliding around on the ice was also fun. Strong entry!
Amazing graphics, really impressive considering the time constraints!
A really nice looking and sounding game! The movement could be a bit unpredictable sometimes, and me and my partner never really understood the goal of the game exept try to get the seals to thier "goal". But overall a really good and cozy game! Well done :)
Stunning graphics, I really love that game! Cozy and interesting 😍
art style to die for. so charming
This game is so polished!! The gameplay and movement is incredibly smooth and the beautiful pixel art pulls it all together. Such a cool concept!
good
Graphic work is awesome, you guys should be proud! Nice Entry!
The art is beautiful! Loved to see the little personality of each character/animal. Visually stunning!
Absolutely stunning game. Reminds me of an old browser game I used to play :)
First of all, arstyle is charming indeed, when I saw a tumbnail and visuals it made me want to play it, great job on that! As for the game - I like idea of air-hockey but with multiple targets! :hockey: These dark seals who we hit instead of pucks are adorable, sometimes you even don't want to hit them, they're just chilling and doing no harm :smile: What really made me think is how these seals collide with each other and with me. Dragging the seal with me was the first thing that made me questioning my movement - it felt wrong, I didn't want to drag it, I wanted to hit it, but it decided to drag with me. Then when I saw how they collide with each other depending on their state (whether they're rolling or not), it felt unclear of how I should kick them to keep them out of reach to my camp. You know, I wanted it to feel more physical, if they collide and can be moved, then they move no matter the state. And the last thing that was unclear is why they bounce of my border - I get that if they wouldn't I would have to catch all of them and it would make the game way harder. But at the same time - that is the rule, right, so there wouldn't be anything wrong about it? It would feel like a challenge, because for now I played it for 10 or 15 minutes and haven't lost even though I played bad and a lot of these seals entered my base. In any case, very cute and pleasant game and great use of air-hockey idea!
Hi @faofid Thank you for your response. I think, the main problem is that we didn't add any delay before dragging. But we made it in first-day patch for itch version. Probably, better try that version. :smirk:
Cool game! The art style is beautiful and the concept is really interesting. Some feedback: - I think it would be more interesting to have to time swinging for it to work, and not hold for stronger attack, since now with so many monster on later waves, it is just beneficial to spam spacebar. - Of course it would be great to have more than one type of a monster :) - The lose condition is not clear, I see there is a bar on top that goes down, but sometimes it does sometimes it does not when monsters enter the village - A lot of the time monster slow down just at the village border and start immediately going into it, and player can't do anything about it. So I would suggest to make place from where monsters bounce off at bit further from the village, and allow player to go a bit further (closer) to the village, that way this situation would not happened.
Anyway, great job with the game!
The art style and music really spoke to me here. I had a hard time aiming the monsters and figuring out how to optimally juggle them to avoid them going into my side. Overall, I really enjoyed this entry, though I wish there was something implemented like an aiming line.
Great work!
Art and sound are both great, and a fun idea for a game. I found the hit detection a little inconsistent though, which made it hard to make some shots, also I think the goalkeeper may be cheating a big. They seem to hit it back when they are far away :p Great entry!
Game looks and sounds fantastic, I really like the style, nice job! The animations are really cute too.
I did find the controls a bit tricky, like the spinning ball creatures would stick to me then fly off in a direction I didn't intend, even when I wasn't holding space. I found it very difficult to aim them, so I found the best strategy was to just skate around as fast as possible whacking them and hoping for the best. I also felt like it was a bit too difficult to 'fail', like my health bar is huge, and so there isn't really much penalty for letting creatures raid your village.
Overall, nice entry though!
