yeah baby! this is such a complete little experience. I played it through to the end, it's a satisfying and atmospheric little puzzle. Kind of the perfect game jam game. I was really impressed by how easy it was to onboard and play this, and how you gave it just enough storytelling in the short playtime to let my brain fill in the gaps in a satisfying way. nothing was wasted. GORGE <3
this is like an object lesson in how to jam! like, you decided to use very few or no textures, but you totally made that work as an art style. really impressed by how far you pushed the concept, too. If I had one criticism it'd be that having all the enemies moving on diagonals, but the player on the arrow keys, made the difficulty pretty brutal (and you also had some intentionally brutal design choices in there....) It also felt weird to be casting spells with my WASD fingers. Loved it though!
Well, finding this as a person who also made a game about stuff falling off a boat, it's hard not to feel a little called out lol. you did yours in 3d, and that's, like, a whole extra D. :raised_hands: I didn't have a 2nd player but trying to play both 1P and 2P replicated coop chaos quite nicely. IDK if I really figured out how to control it but it was so characterful it was a fun experience. I thought the way you visualised the waves was LUXE!
you're getting five audio stars for the old-school beat with the frog croak sample alone. This is niiice! There was a bit of jank for me in the card interface but I love the concept and it all has lots of character. TBH I was sold as soon as I saw your loading lilypad. <3 Out of scope for a game jam, but I'd love to see the frogs living in the buildings like little amphibian Sims. serious froglok vibes 10/10
Thanks so much for all the positive comments peeps! :tada: It was fun to make and I may take a post-jam pass at it and see if I can put more fun in. but also more beauty as I would quite like to evolve it into a cosy game about sailing. Let's see! TY for jamming!
I trundled my spaceship into the sun! Cool jazz vibes tyvm keep up the interplanetary football
Nice quirky vibe on this. I loved the dramatic silhouette in the intro. The art style had a lot of character. It felt a little hard to make the fireballs connect & wondered if they needed more generous hitboxes. The sheep got a laugh. Well played :clap:
Liked that you had unisex toilets. Concerned about despawning diners, are they ok? Please let me know as soon as possible., TY.
What are you PUTTING in those PILLs? oMg
smooth little two stick shooter! I didn't really understand why I died, but I loved how smooth the gameplay was and I really liked the rage mechanic.
picking up loot boxes was a faff but I liked that you had a whole RPG in there, that came together fast lol. I can't decide whether I love or hate Core, in that stuff you build in there kinda comes out Core-flavoured, but then again it's good for players and creators to have a bunch of systems they can rely on across 'the multiverse' IDK. i remember when this was all fields
