Interesting idea! Maybe you could add a mechanic where you drill through the planets crust to reach rare resources. It would be awesome if you first scan the area, then mine the resources, and later buy new planets with upgrades that progression loop would feel really satisfying!
Cool visuals and mechanics. The moment when your drones are taken away and you have to dodge enemies made me nervous, but I liked it. Cood game!
Amazing! The horror atmosphere created through the visuals is truly excellent! How to create a horror atmosphere in a low-budget project is a challenge. This design is really cool!
I love the quirky atmosphere you built for this place it feels like the coziest record shop, even though itās floating amongst the stars. It really sells the experience of making music from pure starlight.
I love everything about this game. I already started typing a comment after finding he OK ending but then went back to find the other endings and did not regret it!
Interesting project I really enjoyed playing it! The games style and art are great. Maybe adding a crab as an enemy would make it even more fun, but overall, the concept and gameplay are solid.
Oh, one thing though you might want to simplify the shop animation a bit, because after a while it started making me feel a little motion-sick.
Good interpretation of the theme! Good art to. The onboarding is a bit clunky at first but only few try to understand is ok for a jam game.
Really enjoyed this one! Great use of the theme, beautiful graphics, and fun (challenging) platforming. Fantastic job all around!
I really liked the game and its style the idea is implemented in a very cool way. I enjoyed it!
The game is really cool I enjoyed it! The graphics are top-notch, hahaha, especially their facial expressions. Youve got a great art style; it reminded me of the *Oxygen Not Included* platformer where you have to build a base. Overall, it a solid concept. I think you should definitely finish it lots of people will love it!
I really enjoyed the game its action-packed, with an interesting concept and style. You should definitely make a VR port, that would be absolutely amazing! Please dont forget to finish the project and publish it on Steam so have something fun to play when Im bored. Great project!
Interesting concept! I think you should increase the activation range for the campfires I was surprised when I realized I had to climb mountains to trigger them. Still, I really enjoyed it!
The graphics are good, especially I liked the main monitors. But the gameplay feels a bit cluttered and too stressful. However, overall, itās very well done.
The game is really nice, but itās a bit dark.Other than that, the gameās visuals and models are pretty cool.
Seeing this art reminded me of GTA. Hmm, who knows maybe your game will grow into something big! But overall, it was fun. I think I saw something similar on Google Play, and I liked it.
I liked the idea and thought it was very funny and cute but didnāt really understand how to play
Nice atmosphere and soundscape! The running section was my favorite with the rhythmic approach and visual cues
Really cool effect and original idea! So fun to play, congratulations!
very fun idea and really creative. I got stuck at some point, but other than that i really enjoyed it!
very good and I like the style
I was digging throughout the whole session, very fun to work with the music in that way. Iām impressed by what you managed to make in such a short time, amazing work, especially on the sound department!
Interesting concept and presentation, with beautiful pixel art. If polished further, it could become a quite interesting, brutal game with a gritty narrative. I hope the game will be updated and completed.
It took me quite a while to figure out how to play the game. So I think a visual tutorial would be great to understand the light the light on the pad. The concept is really great !
I love the music and the atmosphere, itās super fresh, it makes you want to push the game to the limit, great job!
i love the atmosphere but the time between signals made it hard to find where it was coming from
The idea is cool I liked it! It looks interesting.
The idea is cool I liked it! It looks interesting.
I really liked your game itās a very interesting idea! I had fun watching the little cartoon character, but I think you might want to add some visual highlights for transitions and reduce the movement depth in certain areas, since I actually got stuck behind the generator, haha. Still, overall itās a great concept and I genuinely enjoyed playing your game!
Really cool idea! You should definitely expandtaken over before time runs out. Placing radio towers to boost your income for future upgrades would fit perfectly. Solid game!
Nice theme interpretation, which is also used for the gameplay. I like that. I also like that you put in a score system and that there are different difficulties implemented.
Realy fun game, the puzzle design was pleasant, enjoyed the variety of clients, i had fun creating self feedback loops but you should probably add some failsafe so people dont crash the game with thousands of signal entities like i did lol, great job!
Your art is amazing (as always) and for me personaly that could the one thing why I want to get back to it :) But I am also very curious in the rest of the game and I wanted to drop the comment already since I think you did amazing job!
The visuals are stunning, the audio was great, and the game felt very polished. I felt unfairly failed when I saw blood on the walls but maybe I missed something.
Really cool entry! you managed to make a pretty complicated gameplay interaction managable by the thoughtful tutorial and hud elements. Really cool!
Really nice entry! Itās deceptively compelling I got completely hooked! š I learned the hard way that heading north too early brings a horde of enemies I wasnāt quite ready for. I probably should have explored the east first, but the artifact I found in the west was absolutely worth it! Great job!
The sound effects are really dynamic! I love it!
cool idea, cool graphics, cool music at the worst ending) i think this kind of communication system could really fit well into some kind of strategy games
This game really made me smile! It started out seeming like it was all about sound, but then itās ripping your fingers off. I loved the concept.
Wow, a new take on tower defense! I feel like this is exactly what was missing the ability to walk around and build structures, hahaha. Itās a really cool concept and mechanic. The only thing I didnāt quite understand was what the zones and signals do. But overall, great idea I really enjoyed it!
Fun game with a unique TD spin and nice aesthetics. Two main issues: the signal mechanics weren't clear from the tutorial. Otherwise, solid work and enjoyable gameplay!
very tasteful typography & aesthetics, just a really cool vibe all around
Great job on this one! Youāve got a unique style and some clever mechanics. Canāt wait to see where you take it next
Cool and atmospheric game! Itās impressive how much work you managed to do in just three days. The graphics are great, and the sound design is cool too. I couldnāt quite figure out how the inventory works through trial and error, though. I ended up collecting a bunch of junk, but I was happy about it. Special thanks for hanging up the posters with hints!
I absolutely love the vibe and mood of this game! The music creates a really cool 'midnight ambient' atmosphere itās strange and mysterious, but not scary, which I really enjoyed. I managed to find the battery and get the code, but I got a little stuck on how to insert the battery into the radio. Do I need to charge it somewhere first? Thanks for the great experience!
Art and music are fantastic. Input/movement was a bit sensitive and made it difficult to pick up ammo boxes.
If polished, it could become a quite interesting game, I love this kind of atmosphere!
Love the artwork ! The concept is pretty cool too!
Lovely game! I very much like the audio synch in jam games or in games is rare, and it was so good to see it was done. Nice tutorial too! And yes the game felt polished, even though graphics were simple.
If polished, it could become a quite interesting and fun game, similar to "Papers, Please" with monster checksāto be honest, the style is quite similar too. Cool game, definitely finish it and release it on Steam; I think it has every chance of success.
I wasnāt fully prepared for it, XD The artwork, sound design, and gameplay are all fantastic. Everything flowed smoothly!
Interesting concept! As I understand it, you were aiming for a PS1 style. I liked the aesthetic, but I think the effect is a bit too strong. Also, I noticed two mouse cursors on the screen. Overall, it looks cool, but it could use a bit more gloominess/darkness.
i like art style. you did a great job, a lot of content for a jam game good game!
Fun game! I really liked the wave mechanic on the microwave, hahaha. Iām curious though why didnāt we get to see a giant Cthulhu? It felt like it was made for this game! But overall, I enjoyed it. It looks cool and plays well too.
I had so much fun playing with the webcam! Itās such a unique experience Iāve never played anything quite like it before. The face tracking worked really well, though I occasionally wasnāt sure which expression to make (but thatās part of the charm!). I did get stuck after hitting 5/6 green lights; the game suggested trying again, but it seemed to end there. Despite that small hiccup, itās a wonderful game in terms of using facial expressions. Great job!
Cute art, i wasnāt able to finish the last level, maybe iām getting old :P Also should credit Vulfpeck hehe was very surprised to hear them here
I feel so stupid failing to guess the second word for 5 minutes
Cool concept. If you come up with a good story and levels, you could definitely launch it on Steam. I like the idea with waves and dots it looks pretty neat!
I love the art style! The font in the tutorial is a bit hard to read but I like its presentation and the game is not too difficult to understand so thatās not a big issue. Very cool stuff.
I really enjoyed playing on the gamepad. I didnāt immediately notice the health level, I was concentrating on the signals) Very active gameplay!!
The game is visually very cool! But the idea of graphs is cool. Itās so cool. Interesting enemies
Wow, made with Python? Thatās awesome! The game feels really good to play and looks pretty. I was a little lost on what the green buttons on the machines were supposed to do, though. Also, had a bug where the music stopped after the first day. But overall, solid job!
great visual , the 3d moddels are cute and sci-fi! and the 2d visual are well made too! Very atmospheric space mood. It was fun to help this lonely robot !
You all created an amazing atmosphere and story.
The game looks great! The Morse code implementation is really cool.
The illustrations definitely elevated the experience. The mechanic is a great interpretation of the theme, and being able to scan your surroundings is really cool. The balancing is a little hard, especially since shooting the laser takes your HP points, and it can be hard to see the boxes that you can pick up sometimes. Regardless, this is a great submission, very cool!
Great concept and idea! This could make for a cool incremental game. I really enjoyed your game and the art style. I hope youāll polish it based on feedback and release it on Steam, as it has the potential to be an engaging experience for streamers.
I think you should consider adding more expressive emotions for the animals and some kind of visual feedback when they are sold. But overall, the idea is very interesting Iād definitely play a game like this on Steam.
The graphics look interesting I really like the incremental part, and the overall art style too. The only thing that might need some tweaking is the global lighting. Right now, it has a yellowish tint that blends in too much with the art colors. I think it would look great if you used a more contrasting or opposite color for the light then you could confidently release your project on Steam!
Youāve got a really cool concept here! The next step would be to add a city and a deadline for capturing it with radio towers, so you can broadcast propaganda across the whole city and earn more coins, especially considering future upgrades. Great game!
Nice graphics :) The journey was too long for me though.
I like how the gameplay evolves over time, and the visuals and audio complement it really well
I really like how you drew the icon it looks cool! Nice game. š
Cool game, waiting for steam)
The idea is cool I liked it! It looks interesting.
Cool game, but Im kinda confused about theme implementation
Good job with this game, itās simple and well-polished, moving and using the dash is very satisfying.
Interesting concept and presentation. If polished, it could become a quite fun and entertaining game where you can wipe out bacteria, haha. It would make for a great incremental game.
Interesting concept and presentation. If polished, it could become a quite interesting game.
Really cool game, beautiful graphics and mechanics, great job!
Interesting concept. If polished, it could become a quite interesting game. Nice visual
I wasnāt fully prepared for it, but I definitely had a moment where I felt like I truly belonged there I just knew. XD The artwork, sound design, and gameplay are all fantastic. Everything flowed smoothly!
Amazing atmosphere and vibe, congrats on a great first entry!
My friend, this is a brilliant concept! It has the potential to become an amazing incremental game. Please donāt abandon the project finish balancing it and refine the incremental progression. Wow, itās truly a cool idea!
visual style remember me old games, so nostalgicā¦ by the way game is really cool
I really love the mood of this game, very creative! And the dialogs are top notch! Very good entry
loved the game, classic art style and overall great experience.
A very cool idea for a game, I loved the graphics and gameplay! The only thing I could complain about is the lack of explanation at the start but other than that good job :)
This game is really cute! It took a minute to figure out what Iām doing but it becomes more fun as I figure it out :D Great use of the theme!
Pretty cool idea to extend classic laser reflection mechanics with rhythm limitations. I like this concept. Wish there were more levels.
I absolutely love the voice acting and the BGM. The whole gameās color palette is so harmonious, and I really enjoy the gameplay too!!
I really liked the progression system where you move along a path after winning encounters it kept me curious about what was coming next. I didnāt manage to reach the end myself (though I did watch the ending video), mostly because rhythm games arenāt my strong suit. I found that I performed better when I just listened to the beat rather than focusing on the visual icons. My strategy was pretty simple: I just spammed the two highest damage spells available at any moment and ignored the elemental mechanics. Still, congrats on the game! The 'icy rave party' theme is super cool.
Great decision on the visual style, it gives a unique feel to the game. Poor little cat was sitting alone in the house full of zombies fearful
Love the gameplay and unique art style! This plays like a polished game
When I was playing the game I found it really annoying how you had to hide inside a log every 5 seconds. I get thatās the whole integration with the theme, but Iād honestly rather play without it.
I did really like the art though well done.
Very good puzzle platformer game, It was very challenging, I donāt say no to more levels post LD and nice graphics and ambiance sounds
Awesome game, I enjoyed everything about it! Difficulty felt just right, controls behaved exactly like you expect and the mechanics really fit with the tone set by the narrative, graphics
