This game is really well done and fun!
When the screen gets filled with projectiles it gets pretty hard to see the reticle, my advice would be to show a cone representing the spread of the current gun. It would make the aime more readable.
I am not sure why I would change my gun after picking one up and was kinda sad that this would be in my shop as it felt useless.
Great job, I really enjoyed your game.
Happy birthday (late) to your niece!
What you could do to make it easier for children (and since I have a short attention span) is for the first levels hide only some of the fruits. I feel like it will make it even faster to grasps what you have to do and add a nice progression feeling.
If I have the opportunity I will have my niece try it :)
Good job!
Nice entry. I have not much to say other than I suck at the star mini game too :)
This fake online mode is pretty fun.
It's really easy to tip over. Meaning you loose everything. Because you drive too fast.
It would be a good Idea to give free lvl 1 rocket just to defend yourself and just by upgrades with crops.
Other than that congrats, really cool game.
A blob shadow would help to better understand where we are in space. Other than that I found that if you get to the right side (on the edge) you can skip almost anything (sorry).
Loved the game, nice entry!
Hey there good job!
It took me waaaay to long to understand where "the table" mentioned in the description was x)
The key "1" at the table creates a bomb not bullets, but that may be a typo in your description (both itch and there).
I love the fact that I have to plan my expedition and spare my bullets. In addition to what is existing a less effective way to defend yourself that does not have ammunition would be cool or removing the movement slow when reloading.
Congratulations, I had a blast playing your game!
Clean entry ! It's kind of sad to see your superhuman, or what you thought was THE SUPERHUMAN, drop to 0 in the next generation.
Clever idea and well executed, congrats.
I thought I was stuck while placing the buildings, took me waaay too long to understand that I can switch the layer.
Gave me a hungry shark vibe.
Nice entry!
I felt like I was doing something wrong when I pushed the cake down, then I got smashed by a cat paw x)
Nice entry!
Neat entry!
I love the fact that you can pile up stuff to give it all in one go. An highlight of what goes where when a resource is selected would be nice.
Good job!
Love the concept.
I had some bugs in 2 games in a row, the timer at the bottom would stay empty and not fill up (google chrome).
Apart from the bugs the concept is insanely cool. It would have been reaaally cool to be able to select the option through keyboard shortcuts.
Congrats!
It could be fun to be able to drop the fruits from higher up and play with the rotation of each fruit.
Very clever idea, nice entry!
Hey fellow soul reaping game maker.
It is fun to make them comply, the idea is really cool.
I feel like this game would benefit tighter inputs (more responsive inputs).
Congrats, it's a really neat entry.
Hey, the web version on this page does not seem to work. It runs fine on itch tho, but you may want to adjust the canvas are on itch (when the fullscreen is not on the canvas is cropped).
I wished the flower would move in sync with the music x)
I would argue that the rythm of the game is kind of slow for me.
Oh and the amount of money under the clock, confused me. I expected to be able to spend it :)
Sound effects and audio in general is awesome. The story is fun. Congrats on your entry !
I love this kind of game! Feel like watching an ants colony.
I think that a way to speed the aircraft up with a dash or a button to move faster would make the decision making even more important.
Congrats on what you did, it's awesome!
Very cool game !
This is a really cool concept. As mentionned the game is pretty easy and becomes more of an idle game if you want to do the highest score.
I love the message the game sends: overfishing kills your fun as it destroys ecosystems. It reminds me of "Gibbon: Beyond the Trees" where when the forest is on fire you have less game giving a realistic feeling of what happens in nature.
Great entry !
First of, congratz.
I find the font kinda hard to read and the prices felt a bit high. Other than that I have not much to say.
Congratulations.
Cool entry. I am not sure that buying new spaces should be available as it makes the game easier and easier without any draw back.
Nice entry, even without much audio everything is coherent and clean. I was wondering if tighter/smaller levels could be beneficial, some levels felt large.
This could become a fun full scale game, congratulations.
Love the sounds ! Fun game to play.
Congratulations.
The art and the animations are well done. The sound design is pretty good too.
The movements of the player are kind of slow and the fact that only 1 direction is registred makes it even slower. The beginning of the game is well explained, and the backstory is pretty cool. But the end lacks clarity. What happens with that monster ? Is there something to do once it is spawned ? Going outside makes the monster disappear.
You made a very beautiful entry, congratulations !
It is indeed fun to climb on the giant!
It's a nice use of wheat. The climbing seemed less precise when the camera is looking straight up / straight down. Getting up is easier than getting down.
Anyway, congratulations for your entry !
Hey well done, the game is pretty fun. I like the fact that the timer starts only when you leave the "start zone". New mechanics are presented gradually which is cool ! Good job.
Hey awesome take on the theme, it is refreshing.
I might just be bad, but I have trouble identifying what should go where. I mean for some parts it is easy, but for others I have the feeling that i tried left / right and both are incorrect.
The controls are difficult, a cause might be that it is pretty hard to have a feeling of speed and direction. Adding something that displays the current speed might help. Some kind of compass might also help.
Congrats, awesome idea !
Only thing missing is a multiplayer mode ;)
Great idea, good job.
This game is so cool !
Constructive feedback: This game would benefit from visual feedback on the cooldowns of your actions (I want to see when i can push and when I can dash) In the first level the audio does not really match the mood of the empty level :)
This is an original take on the theme and the game is FUN. Congratulation.
Hello fellow ship game makers !
Everything is clean and working so congrats :)
I agree with the fact that oranges add frustration. The mix between real time and turn base is very interesting.
The game in itself is pretty difficult given that the total amount of oranges you get is reduced every 10 seconds.
Congrats !
You have to keep the MonoBleedingEdge folder, if it was not created something went wrong building your game.
This game is fun!
If you can do webgl build, you should do it.
Easy to pick up and you nailed the feedbacks when an attack is incoming.
I should mention that your art is being stretch / the resolution is off.
Great entry!
Hey there, I downloaded Quest and gave your game a go!
Marvelous text writing skills, your ability to describe environment is really good. I spotted some spelling mistakes, but nothing critical. I am not really used to read stories, but I really enjoyed the experience.
I killed myself once and successfully saved the president the next time :)
Hey there,
If you can make a webgl build and host it (itch.io for example) it would probably make more people try your game out.
Pros:
- The idea of having an illness impact the gameplay is very clever and nicely implemented.
- Your game fits the theme very well. Your game art is consistent.
- Nice french touch
Cons:
- Some colliders are missing on buildings (bottom left for example)
- It is really hard to remember addresses while having the pressure of the clock. Something like a map (even an image on your ludum page) showing roughly where the streets are would make your game more engaging I think.
Congrats on your entry !
Your itch.io link contains only an .apk.
Your link does not work. You should probably upload a build on itch.io / update your drive link.
This game kept me hooked for a while xD
It is fun and engaging to discover the not so much bonuses spawning.
Good job.
The first time I launched the game, I had to mute and then unmute the game to have audio. I don't know if this is consistent tho.
Great game! It is very fun to play and it is a unique idea. If think that a fullscreen button would be great. As the page background is the same as the game background it is kind of confusing why clicks don't do anything.
Other than that, nice entry! Good job.
The music really creates a great mood. I love the movements of the squares, it is really smooth!
I would say that I expected to die faster. It takes quite some hits before dying. Great job!
This game feels like playing QWOP, great job! One of my fav for sure.
I really love your entry, only thing I could suggest is to make you lose when you cause a crash. I feel like trying to stress out the player to make "correct" decisions would improved the overall game feel. But hey, as mentioned this is a really solid entry!
Hey there, great job on your entry.
I think that you could make the clock disappear after some time, it would add more variety to the game. As @kurakurture mentionned the hitboxes and platform deserve a bit more attention. Also I noticed that if you collide with a demon some of its momentum sticks to your player until you jump on a tree. More snappy controls would greatly benefit the game.
Overall you nailed it, keep up the good work!
I had a blast, super fun! Great sounds ;)
It's a simple mechanic well executed. Love all the visual feedbacks and the persistance. It's pretty hard to keep track of your kill count, adding it to the death screen would be fantastic.
Well done!
Great little game.
If you plan to make the experience longer, I strongly suggest to stop time during dialogues.
Loved the art, the sound, the level design and the persistance in death ! Great job.
I don't know why, but I expected a much darker death animation and a lot more quacks. Really fun game!
I love the idea. You could improve on feedbacks, it is not always clear where your turrets are. You could write down the exact controls as they may not be obvious to everyone. Great job!
Really solid entry, calming mood, nice visuals, well done!
Really interesting concept and cute little pigs.
I feel like I have the most fun when my pig is eating apple, yet the game don't want me to eat all the apples.
Love this entry.
Really clean entry, clever puzzles :) Good job.
This game gets messy really fast xD. Nice arcady mood, loved this entry !
Really clever, great job!
Sloppy physic always get me. Nice entry.
Really great audio, love the mood !
I will not show your game to my girlfriend. Very nice job ! The only suggestion I have to add is to make the color of the particle you shoot match the kind of answer.
Love the sound design and the visual feedback when your patient is nearly dying / getting better. Simple, but effective. Nice entry !
Hey there fellow card game maker ✌️
Why did you make me lose after all this hard work xD Great concept!
Brilliant idea
I love the concept of the attack, drawing a triangle is very unique and it works really well with the design of the level. The weird little sounds that the enemy make are pretty fun. You made a really cool camera effect when sprinting.
This game has a very nice concept, the downsides I see are: The controls could be a bit more snappy Some people seems to spawn horizontally There are some z-fights between the triangle you draw and the floor
Nice job !
The concept is refreshing and the soundtrack is great. You should write down the controls on your page. The game begins kind of slow, something to fast forward the time would be a great addition. I don't think that I fully understood how messenger should be used.
I really enjoyed your game, your take on the theme is quite unique. You managed to picture the daily routine quite well.
Game wise I have some feedbacks for you: For the train scene, the main element (the one that the user will look at the most) is located on the top right of the screen. I expect the action to be easily readable, putting in the center (somehow) would improve the comprehension. Otherwise I really like the way you implemented QTEs.
For the second scene (working), since you need the keyboard it would be nice to have the input to be automatically focused.
For the third scene (room), I am not quite sure what the purpose of this scene is. From what I understand you simple pass a message, that you are too tired from your routine to do anything. Yet I feel like having to do the dishes or clean your room / appartement would enhance your point / message.
Overall you could add feedbacks when the user does a QTE right/wrong or when the user enters the correct/incorrect word at work. Even if it is just a sound I am not always sure if I did the task right :)
Really nice entry, I played for a while !
Loved the idea, loved the chaos and the mood. Great voice acting.
Very relaxing game, I don't know why, but I constantly get the feeling that I am cheating the game. I would love to see a visual feedback on the player when i can I jump again.
A tutorial would be welcome, I am not quite sure how to progress.
I tried a bunch of times, but I always run out of time pretty quickly. Otherwise the game looks good, congrats on your entry !
If you keep moving against the long block while spamming jump you the game becomes very easy ✌️
It got me busy for a while, nice entry !
This is one of the best entry I have played so far, congrats !
You did a pretty good job for the audio, it suits the gameplay really well. Visually speaking it is stunning. And you created so many things in such short notice.
I don't think that it is a good idea to be able to dodge / escape fights. The best aspect of your game is the fighting, you should encourage the players to fight. If you think about your goal in the game then you don't really want to fight if you have a choice.
I would suggest to make the fight mandatory and change the type of the tile once you character leaves it.
I did not quite understood what the different stats meant for the characters: WISDOM and LUCK. It does not seem to have any impact.
There are some bugs here and there and you could add some visual / audio feedbacks (when you don't have any action point for instance), but hey ! It is an awesome entry !
It is a nice entry, I would say that I would have enjoyed the game a lot more if the collisions were tighter. I feel like you can get stuck without having your circle visually colliding with the environment. The music is pretty good ! You could add some audio effects for the ennemies and the projectiles, it would increase the mood in your game !
Other than that, good job !
I expected more games like this given the theme.
The fact that we can't press a button to place a robot (skip the iteration) makes the game kind of slow. Oh and the controls, it would have been more intuitive to make the controls move according to the grid instead of the camera.
Anyway I really like your entry, awesome job !
I really enjoyed this game!
It took me a moment to understand, but it feels very polished. Nice entry !
Awesome ! Thanks for letting us choose how the camera behaves ! I love the fact that you can shoot in all sorts of directions. The sound design is incredibly good. I don't really understand why the audio shouts "too slow" when you jump into monsters, but anyway awesome game!
I really like what you did ! Your movement mechanic is awesome, I really liked your game !
I would consider adding lives or an indicator to point enemy out of the screen, just to be able to plan a little bit what you will do. Amazing job !
Awesome take on the theme ! Really good game !
Been there, done that. Really like the game !
Very nice ! The movement feels great !
I had a blast ! Great game !
This would be a great mobile game ! Controls are a bit jerky when you spam the inputs.

Your game is awesome, I had fun all along. You are spot on with the theme, art is good and you have got a nice moody music.
Gameplay wise I wished to be able to upgrade the damage and healing I deal.
You did really good, congratulations !

I think that the reticle does not scale with the resolution of the game. It might just be a visual thing.
The audio is really good x)

Congratulations your entry is awesome ! The only constructive feedback I can think of is the clic to move feels unresponsive at times. Your game is really good on every metrics.
Tic Tac Trillion by Levi 2024-10-08T07:37:12Z ♥ 1
Since each player can put a square anywhere it feels hard to have strategies. As the number of squares increases and less spaces are available it feels more intersting to me. Congrats on your entry.

I expected enemies to attack, it seems like they don't. It feels like an idle where you collect exp and coins. Can you use them in some way ?

The embedded version on the ludum page does not work, use the itch.io link.
Using 'E' and 'R' crashes the game.
I managed to kill the ladybug and reach the swamp. I was not sure how to fight, but mashing clics and t got me through.

A grid system to snap the towers might make precise placement easier. And I wish there was a fast forward feature. I like the fact that you put an end instead of having an infinite amount of waves.
