Really great polish for the amount of time honestly!
I do think that you could've explored the theme better though. This year's hard because most games would adhere to it by virtue of getting harder as you go further in the game.
Holy cow this was so good. Everything checked out, I had a ton of fun playing... When I finished I was left wanting for more. One little thing is that it didn't feel like the game was that challenging, and when I made a mistake (say didn't increase the salary by enough to defeat the enemies) it was very punishing. I'm not entirely sure how you'd balance that, but something that would make the difficulty more apparent by allowing the user to make more mistakes while making each mistake less punishing. That might improve my enjoyment of the game, but barely, it was already great. I'm very impressed.
LOL this is great. I accidentally won the first time without really getting what I was doing. Then I purposely tried to fell and it made me laugh a lot. Thanks for making this <3
Super cool concept and well executed, honestly well done!
Wow this was such a great game in terms of level design. It felt really polished. I had a ton of fun.
The audio recordings were a blessing. Super funny and well put together. The puzzles were great too, though they didn't feel like they were going from least challenging to most challenging. I had a lot of trouble on the first 2-3 puzzles, then the rest felt much easier. Really good stuff!
Pretty fun game! I played it for a while and it definitely got crazy haha. It got to the point where the game wasn't smoothly anymore though :/
@6smith Oh noooo! We've had this random crash for a while, we have a hard time fixing it :/
I just submitted a fix! You should try it again, things get interesting beyond wave 4 :p
Really creative take on the theme! Brutally emotional.
Thanks y'all! I think there are 120 different pieces of dialogue in the game... We basically spent our weekend writing :)
Oh man I wished it was longer! The graphics and sound were awesome, but it didn't feel that connected to the theme. Maybe if there was a time constraint on taking care of the animal, it'd connected the gameplay with the theme.
Really awesome arcade game. I kinda wish this excited in real life. The boss was definitely much harder!
Wow that was a pretty surreal experience. A bit of an emotional moment when the one child I fed flew away as the two others that I purposely neglected died in the nest.
This was super fun and challenging. One of my favorite games so far :) It left me wanting for me, like upgrades!
I had a lot of fun playing the game! Loved the game mechanics, it was fun to discover how to use the rooms and people effectively. Kinda weird that they're small children that you're using in your whale... The camera was a bit hard to navigate at times.
Pretty cool game, reminded me of kitten cannon, a classic. The graphics were fun :)
Oh man, I really love the concept. I wish my hair was as cool as his. At first I was pretty stressed about the trees going beyond the points, but then I realized that the branch cutting tool could just always solve my problems. Then the game became much less of a rush between trees. I do wish it was easier to toggle between trees. Also the templates became hard to see because of the background and the trees all mixing together.
I thought the way you represent the HP was a cool idea. I wished I could use the arrow keys to shoot, since projectiles have a max range anyway.
Really love the art and the music. I was able to figure out the tired mechanic fairly quickly, it felt intuitive. I wished the game had more challenges, like maybe having one extra mechanic relating the dangers of dying with the flower. It'd be interesting to have things that can kill the flower but not you, making it more important to protect.
The graphics were awesome for an ldjam and the blood-spray animation was on point. The graphics really contributed to the mood! It was a bit unclear how I could avoid being hit by the attackers. It seemed like I'd accidentally cancel the attack by right clicking again too soon after.
Holy shit that was amazing. The idea is pure genius and the execution is masterful, I am in aw. I would _absolutely_ pay $20 for a game like this if it had a deeper story and character development. I'm amazed at the quality of the assets too. The gun is just so good. And the insanity of the corridors combined with the music... God I can't even
@viktor-dedek Oh no! You're supposed to take the flower to the grave and also hit the action button to "inspect"
@legavroche Thanks for kind words. The small chicks are pretty hilariously broken, we didn't get around to fixing their clipping through the barn.
@tg1397 Oh noo! Can you expand a little about not being able to continue? You shouldn't need the "cutscene" for the monster to be present.
@tg1397 Ooh that part, gotcha. Thanks for the feedback, will make a note :)
