I wanted to play the game but sadly it seems the itch link was dead and I tried going to your username on itch but the game wasn't there
wow, so strangely the game isn't really fun per say, but it compelled me to save all the lives. I didn't want to let a single life die. I am not sure if it's b/c of our current situation but you pulled me in and made me care about these people. Really good job on achieving that.
The music was a bit repetitive but overall gave that sense of panick that things needed to be constantly checked.
Overall I liked this way more than I thought I would, and I actually played till the end
I kept thinking I was breaking the game and didn't realize the flower had a health bar that I had to keep watering lol. once I figured that out I was able to get to the next part but I died very shortly after.
I did like the 3d models for the flowers they looked pretty. bummer you weren't able to get some sound effects and music but I understand.
I loved the art style, but I felt the level was a little bit too zoomed in. I would of scaled it back a little bit and gave the player some platforms to help dodge the baddies.
Over all the idea is pretty fun even if I suck at the game haha. I had fun making burgers and feeding the blob. It looked really cute
man the main menu music is the jam. I was bopping my head and took me like a minute to start the game b/c I was just appreciating the tunes haha.
First level I didn't realize you hold with right mouse. Once I understood that I was having a blast. It's a simple game but I wanted to keep going till the end.
I also thought it was really cool that you can shoot the bullets. it doesn't destroy them, just pushes them out of the way
wow I love the art in this game, it's full of charm and the color pallete is amazing. I also love the mixing of a top down shooter with tower defense. I was curious can you actually beat this game or is it more of a try to beat your highest score?
I loved the different tower types and how you could use them together. I had a lot of fun with this one
I really wanna know how to beat this game. I was able to use scrolls to unlock doors, use the later to get the shovel, but the boulder would always hit the tree before I could do anything, so I must of been missing something.
Sadly I didn't have much fun, but I could see how there were lots of different ways the items work together and reminded me of old adventure games.
If you ever end up putting a playthrough video I'd love to see how to properly play the game.
wow I am so sad not many people have played this amazing game. Most games after I play I'm like ok I'm done, that was cool. But this game I actually played several times just b/c it was so fun.
I love the cute art style and the bouncyness when you hit the buildings and such. Also thought the gameplay mechanics were really good. You were frantically running around trying to put out fires, but then you gotta save the people and then take them to the helicopter, but also have to manage your water. It sounds like a lot of things to keep track of, but it all just flows together for a very nice gameplay loop.
I loved the little touches how when the people got ran over by a car a tombstone popped up. Also the beginning tutorial was simple and effective, I really liked how it was basically the intro screen. The music felt like it fit the game and the sound effects were cute too.
About the only thing I can think of was that while you hear the initial crashes you can assume there is a fire but if you miss that you might not realize there is a fire. I dunno if burning sounds would of helped this or some visual indicator (maybe an animating flame icon in the hud, or directional arrows to the fires). The map is somewhat small so it's not a huge deal b/c you just drive around the city and if you hear a crash find the fire.
The only real issue I had was not major, but I was trying to rescue some guys and they went into the bottom collision barrior so I couldn't get them, but eventually they left it and I was able to pick them up
lol the intro about him loving his cats but loving his goldfish more made me chuckle. That voice over work was really nice and funny, totally felt like it fit the theme of the game.
I tried using furniture as blockades and the cats flipped over the furniture which was pretty funny to see. I also appreciated how you use water to get the cats away from the goldfish and cat treats.
I had a few issues, for some reason the first time I played I couldn't seem to access the shop, I dunno if I was not positioned correctly, but it worked afterwards. Also the movement felt a little slidy, but I think it might of been my macbook struggling to run the web version . But for the most part I could control things well.
I had fun playing and enjoyed the charm and humor of the game
so this one was very short. I dunno why but it took forever to load the game, which is suprising since it was so short but once it loaded up I was able to get to playing. I felt like the camera was zoomed in way too close. you could barely see where you were going. I was compelled to keep playing till I beat the game which is always a good sign.
I also didn't realize at first that the boss you just have to dodge their attacs and you can't really attack the boss.
but you got a game with a start and finish so that's a major accomplishment.
I really liked the art style. At first I kept dying but then I figured out a decent strategy. I also thought it was cool the owls could pick up the fox. I was curious if the owls are the only enemy type or if others spawn as you get further. I didn't make it far enough to see any other enemy types if they exist. but I'd love to know what they are if they do exist.
A few things I noticed - the tutorial just seems to be a black screen (guessing it had to be cut) - when you feed I didn't realize it worked at first, maybe some better visual representation - some of the jumping didn't always work to get to higher platforms. maybe coyote time would help
@
either I'm very good or the game isn't that challenging haha, but the good thing was that I was having fun playing the game. I played like 5 games in a row and won them all. Funny enough in the beginning I didn't even realize how the numbers worked, then I realized they are for the positions up, down, left, and right. once I started to understand that, it was more fun b/c at least I knew what I was doing. I think the first game might of been pure luck.
It would be cool if you convert every single card to ice that something special happens. If something did happen, it wasn't impactful enough b/c I didn't notice it.
was playing with a touchpad so that's probably my first mistake haha, but overall it was pretty fun. I really enjoyed the lighting of the bullets and how they bounced so you could do some cool trick shots to take out the enemy turrets. I believe I only found one powerup that gave me more plant life. I wasn't able to find the teleporter after a few tries, but I still had fun with the game.
my main feedback was the jetpack or double jump seemed like it was very touchy, sometimes I would jump high enough sometimes not. I was probably just missing something. I realize the level is dark to show off the lighting and b/c of the environment. but it was a little bit difficult to naviagate at first. after awhile I got used to it
pretty fun little game. I wish it had some sound effects but hey it's a gamejam game and sound is always the last thing to consider usually. But overall felt pretty smooth. I didn't beat it, but at least made it to the 2nd level. My main feedback are that I didn't realize how much health I had and the screenshake when defeating enemies seemed way too strong
prett fun little game. It kinda reminded me of flappy bird, but wayyyyy less frustrating haha. I like the cute art of the game. It looked really nice and the controls were fluid
I got to the score of 1085 I dunno if I was playing correctly I was mostly just circling the tree and occasionaly setting off the bombs. I see what you mean about the web version being slower. There was so many enemies on the screen that the game could barely handle it. but I am on a mac so it was the only way I could play, but I kept in mind the game would slow down so I don't count that against you.
Over it was pretty fun but I'm not sure about the proper strategy.
hardest game I played so far. I was convinced level 13 and 14 were impossible aat first. Took me so many tries. But I was determined to go through to the end. Everything was solid but I felt some levels as I mentioned 13 and 14 were a little too tight, but I guess they are some of the last levels of the game so it makes sense they are harder. Funny enough I passed level 15 on my first try which was honestly a relief after 13 and 14 haha.
thanks for the fun/challenging game
ok so I don't think the way I beat scenario 1 is how you properly do it, basically my entire forrest burnt down but I protected the buildings. I would love to see a dev playthrough of the proper way to play. It felt hectic which is how I imagine a firefighting game would go. I really liked the concept. I had watched this forrest fire fighting movie called Only the Brave and after watching it, I was really fascinated with all that goes into taking out a fire. they litereally had like war planning to try and figure out how to tackle it, and I had no clue one way to fight the fire was burning areas so the fire wouldn't cross. It's a really good movie.
Here is my way I won, but I feel this shoulnd't be th eolution, but maybe I'm wrong. I just couldn't seem to stop the fire from spreading Screen Shot 2020-04-28 at 10.50.24 AM.png
I think this is the first narrative style game I've played for Ludum Dare so far. I liked the story it was cute and sad at the same time. In the ending when he fell down I'm guessing he died, since he talked about dying there.
my main feedback
- The text could of been a little bit bigger so it would be easier to read. especially since the text is one of the main focuses of the game - knowing which parts of the room lead somewhere else was mostly by trial and error. It would of been nice to have some visual representation of a door or passage so you'd know you could go that way.
Reading the comments I feel I'm not alone. I didn't exactly know what I was doing, but it didn't matter I was having fun and getting new cards. I was increasing my population and hull. I started figuring out what the cards meant the more I played.
However when I got to the final level I just got ultimately destroyed where the levels before I thought I was doing well, but maybe I wasn't doing well and that's why I got killed so quickly in the end.
either way it was a fun game and the last level music is totally jamming. I started bopping my head listening to it hahha.
I had some weird issues with the web version being small , but it didn't effect the gameplay really b/c the art was very clean and easy to read. I loved how you made the boxes stretch out when jumping, it gave them a lot of personality and then the sound effects helped with that too. Sometimes it's amazing how much that stuff can make a difference even though it's just a box.
I didn't last that long b/c I had an ai partner haha, Kinda impressed you had that as option for solo players. Most co-op multiplayer jam games I see don't have that option.
this was really fun. I didn't beat it, but I appreciated all the different things the fish could go in. Like the fish tank and toilet and such. I also liked how the fish swam when in the water. I also liked how the camera zoomed out when you did a big jump , and that you could do bigger jumps when in the water
The only bug I think that happened was the music stops for a period of time, but then it starts over. I guess it's not totally looping.
fun little game it really remindsd me of the hunting segments in the oregon trail. I'm not sure if much changed as each day passed but would of been cool to see it get more challenging as the days go by. maybe it does and I just didn't notice.
Also the web version would of been nice if it had a fullscreen option, but I was still able to play, some text was hard to read at the smaller size but nothing made the game unplayable.
I liked the concept that you slow down if you are carrying more things. would be cool if there was some kind of wild boars, wolves, or bears that would try and attack you so if you were moving slow you'd be at risk
so I first tried this game on my macbook pro and it just was really bad preformance. I don't know why. But I tried on my desktop pc and it worked just fine. I was determined to play this game b/c the initial guiding your root to the dungeon mechanic felt and looked so cool.
I also loved the animation of our main character. They reminded me of a mix of earthworm jim and clayfighters.
The dungeon gameplay was limited but understandable b/c of a jam game. Might of been cool if there some obstacles to avoid on the way to the dungeon that moved or something.
Overall this was one of the coolest games I played so far
I love the art style and the birb animations are pretty fun to watch. I did appreciate the little tutorial signs to teach you about the double jump. I do wish there were more sound effects in the game. but overall it was pretty fun. I liked how you get different items and such.
It was very short but it had you doing platforming and solving puzzles which is pretty cool to see in a jam game. I had fun with this one.
so playing game on a laptop with a touchpad is probably not the best idea lol. at first I didn't realize the concept of not losing your ammo and I was like why do I keep dying, but then I got a grasp of it and I was able to last 2 minutes and 18 seconds before dying.
I actually felt like the enemies were going after me more than today, which I'm not sure if that was just b/c I was trying to shoot them so maybe I agro them.
Either way this game is pretty silly and provided some fun.
The main complaint I have is that it was to know I was actually losing HP without keeping a constant eye on my hp. It would of been nice to have some kind of visual feedback. If there was I didn't notice it.
so I am horrible at clue haha, but wow you had all these rooms and guests moving around and searching. A lot of stuff to fit into a jam game. My only problem and maybe I missed something was that I wasn't sure which rooms were which. I had found a murder weapon in a room but couldn't figure out which room it was to accuse. The graphics 3D and 2D were really quite polished for a jam game. I loved the bio cards for all the suspects
The music was a bit repetitive, I think that song could of worked with a little more variation. and I would of loved to have heard sound effects like walking around hearing guests chit chat. I think there was a noise when I got the murder weapon. but I imagine sound was the last thing put in the game which happens a lot with me too haha.
this was a fun little platformer. All though I didn't learn how to use the barriers right away but then when I did it was really cool to defeat an enemy with one.
It was short and sweet, my main complaint is that I wanted to play some more levels b/c I just figured out how to use the barrier and thought it was a cool mechanic.
Either way really great jam gam. Feels like it could totally be expanded upon
I'm very bad at this game. Took me a while to figure out that pressing the letter made it continue to rise. I also wasn't sure if the color of the balloons mattered or the order? I think I just need to get them to safety
the little kittens were so cute. Loved the art style. I played the web version but maybe I'll try out the gamepad. I do enjoy gamepad controls but I'm on my laptop atm which is mac so that's why I did the web version.
I dunno if you get other weapons or not, b/c I accidently did the touchpad gesture to hit the back button after I saved a few kitties. but I feel like a shotgun would be awesome in this game if one doesn't already exist
probably one of the best games I played. the only issue I had was for some reason when I first played I couldn't even make it to the fire you shoot so I kept dying over and over and I was like I do not get this game. I restarted the game and then bam I had enough flame to walk to it. I dunno how to reproduce the glitch.
Anyways the sound effects and music and graphics and mechanics just all shined very much in this game. I feel like this has the potential to be a full game.
lol the art reminded me of rick and morty especially the boy. Which is one of my favorite shows so I was already won over. The teacher is crazy shah, ties up the students for cheating.
I felt that when the teacher was tying up a student I should be able to swap notes without getting caught, but it seemed like that idea didn't work.
Either way really cute and funny game. I didn't beat it, but losing was fun b/c of the funny story telling.
the game was pretty fun. At first I didn't read the part about the meter haha. Also love the visuals. this game looks very pretty. I would love to play a game like this with a gamepad. I was on my laptop so I didn't have one if it did support gamepad.
also the music was really fitting as well and I appreciated that you had checkpoints and didn't have to start all the way over if you failed.
lol this game made me laugh. And I think by playing it on a laptop with a touchpad made it even funier b/c it was not easy to get very far, but I did enjoy juggling dangerous things to save junior. I'm sure it would be way easier with a real mouse. I can't even really think of much to really add. The only thing I can think of is if you were some how able to get a bomb that cleared all the items every increment of a time you survived so if you were barely hanging in there you knew after 20-30 seconds a bomb would clear it, but then different items would spawn and maybe even random different items
lol so this game made me laugh. I felt like I playing ape escape mixed with metal gear solid. However I couldn't figure out how to beat the second room and ended up walking outside the level haha. But overall it was fun and definitely had the PS1 aesthetic going on
the game had a lot of charm and super cute. I am a horrible farmer though haha. I did successfully grow the apples which was really satisfying to see a big old apple tree.
it was a little hard to keep up with everything. I felt like the timers were a bit too fast but maybe it's just me
I liked the concept but I couldn't figure out how to use the axe. I picked it up with spacebar tried to use it on wood but it didn't do anything. I was able to drink water successfully after pressing space several times.
I can see the potential but since I couldn't figure it out , I didn't have as much fun.
oh wow I didn't realize you could use your own music when I first saw this gmae. I totally jammed to some A day to remember and that was awesome that I could use my own music. I tried the different difficulties and did easy then decided to try hard and I lost so badly haha.
I would of loved to see blue blocks that you needed to right click or something. I'm curious if that was an idea that you all had but didn't get it implemented in time.
Also the video/voice tutorial in the beginning was pretty cool. I don't think I've seen a tutorial like that yet in this ludum dare.
I really enjoyed the exploration part of this game and collecting things. I wasn't sure what the use of the stone-axe was for. I assume the campfire is just for light.
I also love climbing up higher, it reminded me of climbing things in breath of the wild. I am sad you didn't get around to the sound effects, I would of loved hearing the birds and water.
overall impressive for a compo game indeed.
so I wanna say , gamepad is the way to go. The game feels so much better with a gamepad, but maybe that's just me. I like racing games playing with a gamepad versus keyboard.
I loved the sound effects they were funny and cute. and one really simple feature that made the game really cool was that your last checkpoint is represented by your broken egg so I could easily tell if I made it farther than last time. I thought this was such a great visual feedback for the player.
Over all I never got to 2 laps but it's mostly b/c I'm not patient
that was fun. I think a lot more could be done with this concept. The last level took me a while to figure out but when I did it felt great.
would be cool if there special blocks/items that allowed you to flame jump from one to the other, of course only a one time usage. then you could have things where you jump gaps or jump over previously scorched areas.
just wanted to let you know that I loved the voice of the monster you were feeding the minions haha. I kept laughing. Cool concept, however once they start moving around it starts getting difficult really quick, but having good progression/difficulty is hard in a game jam b/c you usually are just finishing up all the other stuff before you can nail that down. or maybe I just suck haha. But I had fun.
I also wanted to note that your itch page doesn't have the link to view the submission. I think you had to tag it with Ludum dare 46 or something to get that to work.
I love the art style , the cuteness. I love the slime effects. the controls felt really fun just to move and jump. Also I love food so naturally I love this game haha. But I am not that great haha. I couldn't save slime mama and I was so sad.
wow this is a really cool idea for tower defense. It adds a totally different kind of strategy. sometimes you wanna sell towers to stop them from damaging so you can get money but not loose health. I love tower defense games. This was a solid game. for sure
this game was funny and I had to use my brain. the only struggle was the darkness made it somewhat difficult to see what I could interact with. The highlight helped out but sometimes I didn't realize a wall was there. I also have no idea how I finally passed the second to last level haha. But the game had a lot of charm and I am glad I actually got to the end. I wasn't going to give up haha.
I can see why this is one of the popular games. The concept is clear and concise as well as the execution. You definitely get that satisfying AHAH moments in some of the levels which is the best feeling for a puzzle style game. I can understand why you only did 10 levels, but wow I wanted to play more.
lol haha I love the concept, keeping the SNES alive. the game is pretty fun even if I stink at it. I was actually surprised when I failed b/c I didn't line up the cartridge haha. I was like well that makes sense I probably broke the cartridge.
One thing that was a little hard is trying to figure out which one is the lowest. might of been helpful to have something to indicate the lowest one, or possible when any gets below 40% they are red or something like that.
but for 10 hours this is a pretty solid game.
it would be helpful to give some descriptions of the controls on the page here and what the different towers do. Like I didn't realize what the first tower you have when you press 2 actually does? it had some kind of energy coming out of it.
also the teleport option is very necearry b/c in the beginning I went exploring and couldn't remember how to get to the tree and my tree died lol. But once I got the teleport with f it was so much better.
also this is just a personal preference, but I always find games where you can only see a little bit b/c of the darkness to be somewhat difficult. But I understand it's night time so that made sense thematically.
overall pretty cool take on tower defense. I love hybrid tower defense games. I'm making one myself so this really caught my interest.
funny enough my team made a game about a mage protecting a tree as well but it's an action platformer.
Wow I was like I'll play this game during my lunch break. But the game is actually pretty big for a game jam game so I didn't get to finish the game, but I got the idea and wow the music, art, and sfx really shine together. There was one song by a castle that kind of reminded me of stranger things theme song and it was awesome.
I almost got stuck at first until I realized there was a hole in a fence haha. Being able to craft the different ammo is pretty nice too.
The one thing I'm not totally sure of with the theme is what were you trying to keep alive. I assume the main character, but I wasn't sure if there was something I missed in the interpretation of the theme
I love the look and atmosphere of the game. Getting the runes and having dozens of deer following me felt pretty good. I saw that something shot out when I pressed x but I wasn't sure if it was doing anything. I couldn't seem to defeat the creatures near the bottom, they would pretty much drain all the darkness. so I liked everything about the game just I couldn't figure out how to beat it. haha
I really love the aesthetic and it seems like you had a lot more planned with all the items and such. I will say the sword was the only weapon I was really able to have any chance of killing a good amount of spiders. The music was really peaceful considering I was killing a ton of spiders haha, that made me chuckle. I imagined myself as this peaceful person who just felt very relaxed while taking out nasty spiders all day
if I understand correctly the game was just the one area , but hey it's a game jam so time runs out.
I had fun playing it. I used a gamepad and it felt like it controlled pretty well
I am honestly surprised how much fun I had making pottery. It actually reminded me of highschool art class doing the same thing basically. Loved the charm and look of the game. Really relaxing cozy game
oh boy this was a hard one. I could barely see anything so it made it even harder but I guess that's just the theme of the game. I loved the grappling mechanic the most it was fun to shoot and grapple but the difficulty made it harder to enjoy.
I think it's b/c I'm a bit more of a casual game player so I'm not as skilled especially with mouse. But over all it was a pretty nice jam gam. Everything felt consistent and looked good and controls were easy to use
The game was short but polished. I had fun playing a wario ware style game. I honestly not sure how it related to the theme but I didn't care
LOL I hate this game. Just kidding I don't hate it, but Originally I tried to play it in the html 5 version and for some reason it was so laggy I couldn't even play. I loaded up the windows version and it was silky smooth ran perfect. I dunno if it's my computer or if the html5 version just isn't that smooth.
The controls were hard but I guess that's what makes the game unique. If it was just like a normal platformer than it wouldn't of been as interesting.
I feel like this game would of been awesome to watch a streamer play and hear them yelling out curse words haha.
The graphics were consistent and the music and sound effects fit the game. I thought it was pretty good overall
So I don't even really know what I just played haha. I loved the beautiful pixel art. I am amazed how much detail and quality there was in a jam game. This could pass for final art in a full retail game.
The gameplay wasn't really that fun to me, probably b/c I didn't really understand what I was doing. But the music and the art kept me going to see more of the pretty beautiful art.
I made it a shrine and started levitating and then the game just closed out. I'm not sure if that's the intended ending. Anyways this is truly amazing.
I am not an artist so It blows me away to see such beautiful art.
pretty good. once I got to level 5 I just started doing random things to to try and disconnect a piece. I think I didn't fully get the hang of it but I'm sure I could of eventually figured it out.
I liked the aesthetic as well. I dunno why but I've been seeing a lot of snake games lately. I am loving all these cool interesting ways to expand the game.
25 levels seems like a lot of content for a game jam game. Really cool that you were able to pack in that many levels in such a short time.
very lovely pixel art. I basically just grinded to get super powerful so I easily killed the big knight. But that was actually satisfying. I was expecting maybe something more but this is a gamejam game so this was just right. Had fun playing
when I read the description I was really expecting so much less. I ended up building such a giant city that I think I caused the game to crash haha. I had so many towers and there were raider bodies everywhere. I think for a game being unfinished as you stated this was in a very playable state and gave me lots of options. I didn't realize I could consume the trees at first but once I knew I could do that I was realizing how all the systems worked together.
I can see how music and sfx would of added to the experience but everything in the game worked together well even without those things.
I was curious what you are using to lock the mouse to the window that was a pretty cool feature. I noticed there was a .dll file, but wasn't sure if this was something you implemented or something anyone can get to use in their gamemaker games.
LOL so all the guys are naked haha. I was like wait are my guys naked. I dunno why but that made me laugh. The game itself was a bit hard I got the concept but it seemed pretty difficult. Maybe I'm just not patient enough to make it by. I did make it off the edge of the table once and due to the difficulty it was very satisfying to save my one little dude. I would say the game wasn't the most fun game but b/c it was so silly and funny, I did have fun playing it. I am pretty sure you had fun making the game.
I was feeling so confident then I made it to the boss and I died haha. Cool game especially considering you just learned unreal4. I would of loved to have the knockback effect that the boss had on all the smaller enemies.
The controls felt smooth. I did have to do a circle pattern to attack and avoid enemies all at once it was kinda fun though.
The story parts were interesting too. I didn't think I'd be seeing a ton of story in games but it's a nice touch
My favorite part was when I got an upgrade that killed me. I dunno why but I find it funny that with this theme a lot of games you can literally kill yourself by buying things.
I thought the game was fun. It was pretty simple and kinda reminded me of a rhythm game at first. I liked the music and I really liked the little shop the power ups UI looked really cool.
I see you want to add more enemies. I think that will really spice up the game b/c the 2 enemies by wave 10 I was ready for another new type of enemy. But for this jam it's pretty good.
I think maybe the parallax speeds could of been adjusted, something felt a tiny bit off but I couldn't place it. But the background looked really cool
This game made me laugh and gave me a serious sam vibe. I dunno if there are rounds but I never passed the first round. I was really wanting to get uber powerful ahha but either way my favorite was the shotgun. Blasting the bananas was really hard though haha.
One other strange issue When I played non fullscreen the shop didn't fit. So I made it full screen I could see all the items in the shop. But running fullscreen made the game run choppy. It ran well non fullscreen though. You probably already knew haha it's a game jam game everything isn't going to be perfect.
The game is probably not what I would wanna play but with the music the art and the charm it somehow made doing math fun. That's a big accomplishment in my book. I got a score of 154.1 and 19 purrfects (love the pun).
I think the one thing I wasn't sure on was when I'd get some cats who had the exact change already and they turned into an angel. I wasn't sure if that was supposed to happen lol
But either way this was a very well presented and fun little game. Great job!!!
I tried using an xbox one controler at first but I think maybe the game is designed for mouse and keyboard so once I switched to that I knew what I was doing.
I didn't really notice what abilities I was losing but I did have fun with all the different weapon types and was especially cool that you could interact with the grenades and kick them around. I had fun blowing up the enemies and killing them haha. The guns felt powerful.
Oh my gosh I love the theme music in this game. I found my self humming it along. Seriously there is so much charm packed into this cute little game. And the intro animation and title screen are superb quality. Looks like that of a full title release.
I totally failed with my first customer and I think there was a slight bug where when I picked choices for dialogue I could accidentally break the window haha, but it was easy to work around.
Thank you for making me laugh and have a really enjoyable play through.
The opening intro and sfx made me laugh out loud. Probably one of the more funny games I have played so far. So definitely a great job making the game fun and funny.
at first I didn't realize the strategy but once I learned how to use the vet and the mail man along with the others I was really zooming along and I was doing good for awhile. I don't think I've seen any games so far have cut-scenes. I was really impressed by the presentation in this game.
The only issue I had at first was just kinda remembering which number key represented which thing but after getting a hang of that it was pretty cool. I couldn't tell if the enemies had different speeds or health mostly b/c I was just trying to get the heck away haha.
I'll admit I didn't understand the game at first probably b/c I never played a gacha game before. But then it just started clicking. I really really wish there was some music to match the tone of the game especially the sad moments but the art is beautiful I really love it and love the cozy nature of the game. And the replay-ability to catch all the toys was a fun touch.
I just hope I don't get addicted to gacha games now lol
oh gosh. I feel like a monster. I couldn't resist running into all the people in the one level with a park. I just had to do it. The change of the music is simply great. But it was like I had a split personality after seeing the failure message. I was like no I must save the people I must be a good citizen and do my job. I have people counting on me. I dunno why but I might have a sick sense of humor but I was laughing the entire time. I Had a great time playing the game. Does it actually loop through to the beginning
this game was very lovely. I really appreciated the color coding for things and how you could tab to see information about all the numbers. That alone was really slick and smooth. Because of the color coding it was really easy to understand the game and progress.
I tried to imagine coin sounds while I was playing the game haha. Really cool stuff though.
the intro part to the game made me think I was about to jump into a gameboy battle royale that was actually really cool. I did like the concept of building and breaking bricks. It seemed like the level was pretty pretty good tutorial level to teach the concepts, of course game jams you always run out of time to do more so it was nice to see something pretty fleshed out. It was a little difficult to do the brick laying but I got the hang of it
The main thing I would of loved to see would of been some sweet music to match with the aesthetic and sfx but It's understandable that music is not easy to make.
Either way I enjoyed the game and how you went full into the gameboy look and feel
this was probably the funniest game I've played yet. Whoever did the sound effects for the crew is amazing. I love the concept of how different crew members do different things so you become worse b/c you have less crew. I made it to level 9 and couldn't really get past that level I'm sure if I tried more I would beat it. Overall the game looks and feels very polished. I love the look of the different levels with the space theme
the music is really charmful and relaxing which really fits with the theme of farming. I thought most of the games in this jam would be very intense due to your life being a currency but I just felt charmed moving my snek around planting some delicious strawberries. My only feedback and maybe it's just b/c I'm old b/c I was told the sounds in my game were way too loud. But I can barely hear the sound effects over the music (but I love the music)
for a game with such a dark theme I found myself laughing a whole lot. Wait do I have dark humor....
I really loved the animations of the blood clot and how each level was pretty much it's own self contained mechanic that built upon each other to finally beat the last level. Also the music was totally jamming

that was a fun concept to to play. I enjoy the dialogue and use of the different color palettes to show the different time periods. I had fun making it to the end.

I kept dying but I had to help poor little umbrella make it to the end. only thing I'd probably change would be a little bit faster respawn, b/c I died so many times haha

I could immediately recognize the music was done by @disomikron . This was a fun game. At first I didn't realize I could use the mouse scroll to cycle through different cards. I feel like with some more work this could be a fun full game. It would be interesting if you had objectives you had to expand the garden to reach maybe. Solid entry and great job everyone!
Weirdo Words by SimplePotential 2022-10-05T22:57:49Z ♥ 1
this was a really fun game. I got anxious trying to do the words faster and faster but that was also the fun part. I could see myself playing something like this more often just to do the daily words

I was just moving at first but then added aiming. Unfortunately my team was mostly down but I encouraged suzy to take down the enemies and she was a champ. I actually felt bad for my troops falling down. Good job!

I see both our games have some dome keeper inspirations. The game is really fast paced. I felt like the beginning wave was a bit hectic but once you get the turrets you can start taking on the enemies. Also the fact you have to be careful about your mining since you can fall makes your mining choices strategic. I liked the game. I would love to see this game in a more relaxed pace where I could enjoy the mining phase. Great work!
