Hey, neat little game! Reminds me a bit of the game with the red and blue fighters where you try to extend the opponents head, and of the Megaman Battle Networks game a bit.
wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin
I quite liked the look of this game! In one of the levels, the game passed me even though I had touched a border before touching the castle. Otherwise, the game was solidly implemented. Overall a good job.
Nice work! I enjoyed your game, the puzzles were interesting, and the premise was funny. Admittedly after a while, the music started to wear on me, but it definitely kept me engaged until the puzzles started looping.
Oh jeez, that kinda creeped me out, but in a good way. Very nice!
I laughed...
The controls began as difficult to handle at first, but I really dig this game. This game is also really relatable for people who have to cook in cramped conditions ;)
Thank you all for playing!
Input glitches up in chrome: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/16262
There's a workaround, but I didn't find it before the compo end, so I am leaving the game in its broken state, as I think it would be against the rules to work on it now (maybe? This is my first LD).
EDIT: Just saw the rules clause that allows small bugfixes, so expect that to land some time after work for me.
Thank you everybody!
@whismirk Yes, I did use Godot.
Cute variety of dogs! I definitely appreciate that the game was instantly accessible. It was unclear what the goal was and what the mechanics of the game were, so I ended up just building a stack of bricks (I survived, but could not interpret the stats). Tide of dogs pretty funny. Overall, a decent entry.
Graphics are a highlight, but figuring out more of the game took going to the comments, and at times the game felt unfair because the radar didn't lead me to oxygen quickly enough. Playing with the theme like that did produce a nice result here though. Would really dig some matching audio work.
Yes, I really liked this game and wanted to keep playing more than I have.
I enjoyed the different weapons and wanting to see what came next. At first I thought the shooting was wonky, but when I got used to it, I came to realize it was because I was unskilled. Wasn't too keen on the use of the theme though. Still, overall a fun experience.
Hey, nice work! The space eater is foreboding. Eventually, I figured out a strategy which seemed pretty on-the-nose. Got 5B through the wormhole in the time I played.
BTW for Linux people, you may have to chmod +x the binary before running it.
Hahaha, I'm on Linux, so all I could really do was read the source, but that was pretty funny.
Sound is mixed pretty high, so I was startled at first. Great concept! I agree that the horizontal movement is on the sensitive side, which makes some of the levels more frustrating than they should. It was compelling though, in the sense that I did want to execute on some level strategies.
I had the most fun with this game in multiplayer watching player two run into black holes and spiraling out of control.
