great game! The Death animations are so satisfying. One thing I noticed was I barely had to move my mouse to get the sword to go flying, maybe make the sword react differently to how much spin force you apply before throwing it?
Not exactly sure what I was supposed to be doing, but the atmosphere was really great and the controls where smooth, running felt really cool!
really good game! I loved the idea of having downsides for not picking something, the 3d curser felt a little strange though, and I don't know if it was just on my end but I could see my normal mouse curser as well
great game! very good graphics
great concept! It did feel like I was waiting around a lot for the radar to reveal my new location, maybe make the radar only reveal the harmful stuff?
nice game! Simple to learn but hard to master. If your trying to go for a speedrunning vibe, an auto reset button would be helpful
thanks! I'll work on some of the suggestions post ludum dare, I do aggree that the fov could be a little bigger
yeah, I didn't really have much time to balance it
yeah, I think I may have made it to hard in an effort to make sure it wasn't to easy...
yeah I do agree with the music needing some work, audio is not my strong suit and I kind of threw the soundtrack together in 15 minutes...
Great game! It did get a bit repetitive, maybe add more strategy by giving each employee stats, such as speed
great game! the art and levels are very nice, but there are a few bugs. Also pressing z to go to the next level is also the same button for jump, so it causes you to jump when you enter the next level.
great game! Good graphics, and everything feels very polished
great game! very easy to pick up, fairly challenging tp play. One thing I noticed is lots of the times I failed was due to something coming in from off the screen, maybe a warning symbol or something to alert the player so they are not caught off guard?
Thanks for the reviews! I haven't had the time to review any other games yet, but I'm going to start today
Thanks for the review @f1krazy ! I do agree that it could be overwhelming for first timers, and i think thats mainly do to the lack of a proper tutorial. One thing that may help (as you mentioned about wasting ingredients) is that holding right click will cause ingredients that are within your mouse area(that have not formed any type of burger yet) to come back to you and into your inventory, allowing you to shoot them out again.
I hope you give it another try!
great game! The simple mechanics make it easy to pick up, and its overall just good for a Jam game. One thing I would say is that the boxes dont seem to do much, as they cant be jumped on.
great game! the shifting color was a really nice touch. Maybe I'm just bad, but it seemed like the jump height was very inconsistent, other than that, pretty fun to play!
good game! Would be interesting if there where more action blocks to spice things up, maybe a jump or something
great art, but not much interesting gameplay, got boring fast.
easy controls, wonderful graphics, and fun gameplay!
Very simple and satisfying, great game! only complaint is it felt kind of repetitive after a while.
Thanks for all the feedback! To anyone whos finding the game pretty difficult, stick with it! Once you get into the flow it becomes easier.
Thanks for pointing out the bug @metagen I just updated the game files to include the fix
Thanks for playing @thelastslowpoke ! Scrap can only be obtained through breaking the barrels(one spawns on the starting platform) the higher up you go the more barrels you will find!
great game! easy to play and wonderful use on the theme.
great concept! The controls are nice and easy, but I wish there was more of an indicator when breaking asteroids, maybe some sort of particles or a screen shake? It kind of felt like I was just bopping them around. Other than that, good game!
Great concept! It felt super rewarding to complete the levels.
great game! The low jump height was probably intentional, but made movement feel kind of clunky, the game also completely froze up after I beat level 2, wouldnt even let me restart, just kept me in the level. From what I did play though, the game was good!
Great game! Easy to learn and play
very interesting take on the theme!
aiming and then firing felt a little tedious, but other than that it was good!
very neat idea and amazing art! It would be really nice if there was more info on what could be clicked, as I sometimes found myself clicking around the screen for something to interact with.
good game! dragon flying mechanics where nice but it was quite annoying whenever it disapeared because the walking felt quite slow
nice amount of gameplay, would be good if you could spawn things directly on yourself, I often found myself taking damage because I tried to spawn something on me while I was being attacked.
simple gameplay and good graphics, nice job!
nice and simple, would be better if you could continue shooting by holding down the mouse button
very interesting and fun use of the theme!
amazing art, good humor, simple concept. Overall great submission. only thing I can think to say would be a little more info on controls, it took me some time to figure out each new minigame.
thanks for playing @missingpixel ! the circle outline resets itself when you don't follow the dots, but maybe I made that too punishing. As for keeping items near the circle, That's kind of what the dash was intended for, the dash is unlimited so you can move around the house quickly and stack your items up.
Thanks for playing @thelastslowpoke ! I actually originally intended to not have a curser at all, your meant to focus on your hands more than the curser, its only really there so that you have a general idea of where your mouse is. I think i definitely should have made the painting point on the mouse, but picking up and dropping items was always meant to be based off hand positioning. Once you start focusing on your players hand positioning it becomes easier to place or do things in the correct spot (I wanted people to raise their hands to drop things) I do understand the issues though, maybe its something to change after the jam!
simple and easy to learn!
great art and interesting concept! It was fun trying out different combinations.
very nice art!
great art, didn't really understand it at first but I think I started to get it!
controls where nice and simple, easy concept to understand and start playing!
very nice use of the theme! simple and satisfying.
very simple and very fun!
good puzzles, good art, and simple to learn!
very simple, easy to learn. Nice!
nice art!
nice effects!
very simple and easy to learn! Using the summoning circle felt very cool
extremely polished and so fun to play, overall amazing submission!
interesting concept!
great art style, nice and simple gameplay!
amazing art and overall feels very polished! serious Cuphead vibes
I love the butter animations and the energy bar is a very nice addition!
mechanics are nice and simple, and the ending was great! The only thing I could suggest would maybe be adding another mode where you where put on a time limit or something when picking the right flower
concept is very simple to understand, overall quite polished!
I love how everything is hand drawn!
simple mechanics and easy to understand, I really liked the general concept of shrinking down to the size of the tiny creatures, good way to interpret the theme!
was a bit hard at first but quite fun once you get the hang of it!
very simple and satisfying, and the art is amazing!
simple controls and nice concept!
Thanks for playing so early! The lack of full screen might be from my hasty Itch page setup, so that should be fixed later
thanks for playing @camcomduck ! yeah the shapes and colors being similar where kind of intentional, as its meant to make you start panicking, but I could totally see how that could get frustrating for some people. If I had more time I probably would have included better accommodations but unfortunately I was a lot more busy this weekend then I had anticipated.
I love the ascii art!
very creative idea!
cool concept, the mouse control felt a little wonky
the pixel art and animations where great, very funny!
great game! very simple and easy to get into
very fun concept!
very unique mechanics!
the concept is cool, but the controls felt rather clunky. I was getting stuck on a lot of stuff and sometimes being unable to jump
I love the art!
It seemed so easy but ended up being quite hard lol, very cool!
the shooting felt very satisfying, only thing I would suggest could be a little more variation on the enemies, or maybe make the heart slowly move around?
absolutely amazing graphics and effects
nice bug!
cool idea! Not being able to control yourself while midair was a nice touch
simple concept and easy controls!
interesting mechanics and great art! Overall really well made
very interesting mechanics! I found it quite difficult to avoid the lava without completely staying away from it, but maybe I have a skill issue
Thanks for playing so early @jester1454 ! But im pretty sure the W and A buttons have been working fine from all my testing? Do the buttons just not do anything at all? Theres a chance it might be something on your end
Id also like to mention that I had to make all of this on my laptop where I cant access itch.io, so I had to email myself the files to set everything up on my phone. Which means I personally have not actually tried the exported game version, so please tell me if things are very wrong!
surprisingly easy to use pogo mechanics!
really nice visuals!
really nice simple concept and mechanics! It was a little annoying not being able to fire upwards or downwards but maybe that was intentional.
I really like the art style! Everything feels very nice and smooth
cool scrabble mechanics!
Really easy controls but i actually found it pretty challenging! I really like how simple and satisfying everything feels
This is really fun! I like the fast movement, and its actually pretty hard!
cool and simple game, it feels like gambling and I love gambling! I laughed when the page went down and I had to refresh it
this was really fun! Super simple gameplay that was super satisfying when you start racking up guns. My only complaint is that maybe the bullet hitboxes should have been a little larger, because i seemed to be missing bullets that looked like they would hit but barely grazed past. Or maybe its just the angle thats throwing me off. either way, great game!
fun gameplay! I really like signing stuff with the quill lol
I really like the atmosphere! It kind of feels creepy, which is probably intended. Pretty cool!
really simple concept and fun to play! I actually found it pretty hard but maybe I have a skill issue
really interesting idea! The graphics where nice too, I think the movement felt a little too slippery but other than that it was good
super simple and easy to get into, nice!
this is a cool idea! I really like the rocks faces lol
cool and simple idea! I like the pixel art
neat idea!
The visuals are great! I really like the player running animation
This feels very polished, I really like the effect of blooming the flowers, very very satisfying!
this game is great! I played a lot longer than I thought i would, I love physical inventories like these and it was implemented amazingly, overall probably one of the best games ive played this jam so far
I really like the vibes and the art style! I'm sure this is a skill issue but I had a really hard time finding the right people lol
This is a really unique idea! Excavating is quite fun and the pixel art works really well
Cool idea! moving the cursor with you actual curser like that is neat, but it kind of felt a little clunky at times
this is a really simple and clever idea, very cool!
nice visuals! I really like all the tiny details with the peoples eyes following you and blinking
I really like the art!
Fun game! Not sure if it was intentional but i didn't really like having to click the letters to collect them, it might be kinda cool if you could press the corresponding key to collect them instead?
pretty fun!
It was fun controller two characters! I feel like something about controlling the directional arrow was somewhat clunky, but other than that it was really fun!
nice platformer! Collecting flags was a neat idea
Thank you all who have played so far! I'm seeing a few comments on the sound of the sniffing being quite loud, so from now on the collector should be more considerate and will try his best not to sniff so loud. Hopefully this should fix the loud noises for anyone who plays after!
@alexclay I just tried it for myself and it definitely does to that lol, I can't believe i never once tried that when testing it! Thanks for pointing it out, should be fixed in a couple minutes
pretty fun platformer! I like collecting cupcakes
I really like the retro graphics! Not sure if theres something im doing wrong or missing but i cant seem to move around or continue the text after starting
@roroto-sic haha I swear i was pressing every key on my keyboard, I must have missed them somehow
pretty cool! I kind of wished the player moved a little faster
nice and simple game, pretty fun!
Interesting idea! Not sure if it was just me but i found it a little difficult to rotate the towers using the slider
nice idea! I like the simple color designs of the ships, pretty satisfying!
this is really fun! Love the art and character designs
This is actually a really well executed idea! Super easy to understand and get into, very cool!
I really like the unique design! This had very cool vibes
nice and simple, very cool! This could just be personal preference but i feel like the gravity could have been tweaked a bit, other than that its great!
I really like the art, cool idea!
ahh the movement is very satisfying and the pixel art is great!
I love collecting bananas
cool simple game, i like the art!
I really really like the art style! Its got such a unique feeling to it
this is really fun! My only feedback would be making it so you can hold down left click to attack, having to click it over and over is kind of annoying
I really like the art style!
fun game that I was surprisingly bad at!
cool graphics and interesting concept!
pixel art is great! I really like the stretch when you jump
really cool idea! I like the old windows theme
