Nice entry! I really like the way the player moves using the mouse, and the puzzles are quite interesting. I also think the tiny graphics are suited for this game. The sound effects are good, and i would have liked to see some music in there too! Overall, great game
Awesome Game! Easy to play, awesome and colorful graphics & animations and a lot of fun!
Not bad! Had fun playing, even tho it did take me some time to figure out how to play.
I think the isometric view really suited the game and the simplistic 3D models. The sound was OK, somewhat funny. I think it really boosted my overall enjoyment.
Only one problem:
***The power system***
At the beginning of the game, i didn't even realize that there was a power system and midway i just see how my towers stopped shooting at enemies. I was extremely frustrated, and that went on for a while. Also, the bigger enemies move extremely slow. After running out of power, i had to wait a lot for day time because of their slow movement which really annoyed me. And when i finally produced enough energy, GAME OVER. After a few more trials, i learnt that you can shut down towers to keep energy and started not to lose that much power. I had quite some fun c:
***GREAT JOB, THANKS FOR THE AWESOME GAME***
Hey @vegevan ! First of all, thanks for playing my game! I really spent a lot of time trying to do the animations and wanted to add more of them, and yes, it is possible to win. I kinda agree with you that the power theme wasn't implemented too well, i wanted to add more features to it such as if you have for example 5 seconds left , it will take the AI longer to act. Also the AI is beatable :)
@liquidbrain Thanks a lot :D I really like the animations myself and wanted to add more. I am really considering remaking the game post-jam to polish it and add some features i wasn't able to do during the jam. Thanks, and i will totally be there for the next jam!
@vkmicro Hey there! Thanks for playing my game. As i responded to others, the graphics and animation will be definitely improved post-jam as i wanted to add more. The AI is pretty simple and i find it quite easy to beat :) And yes, i don't think that's the best implementation of the power theme. I wanted the longer it takes you to win, the longer it takes for the AI to act. So for example you have 5 seconds left , it will take the AI 2 seconds to respond or something like that. Will totally improve the game, thanks for the feedback. And i will check your game too, don't worry :D EDIT: I can't play your game, i'm not on a windows machine :/ I do sometimes have access to one tho, so i might check yours in a few days
Awesome! Simplistic art style, innovative gameplay and outstanding music makes this a challenging but extremely fun experience. The power thing is a bit confusing, it would have been nice if you could have added a bar which shows exactly how many jumps you have left. Also jumping is a bit hard to control, but overall this is an extremely cool and innovative game!
Nice! First of all, the graphics and music are absolutely amazing, especially the music. The concept of the game is extremely interesting and fun, however unfortunately the controls would only half of the time work for me and collision detection is a bit buggy. Still, the game is overall fun!
