Got really addicted to this game. Very fun. Things are a bit difficult to figure out, but I think that adds to the satisfaction once you do get it. You had a clever take on the theme. The art style is awesome, the music is cool, and controls feel nice. There were a few type-o's but that's forgivable. Awesome work guys!
I spent spent 45 minutes playing this, haha. The gameplay is amazing considering how little time there was to work on it. the graphics are quaint(in a good way) and really fit the overall mood of the game. The play on the theme is clever as well. The world is interesting to explore, even given how small it is. And I absolutely LOVE the ambient wind chimes in the background. 10/10 would farm again.
This one's definitely a time eater! I could see wasting hours in this, even at this state. Love the space invaders/rts mashup! the controls are a bit unresponsive considering the daunting task of the later levels. the pc and baddies have a neat old Tomy hand held feel. I might be coming back to this later for fun.
nice theme! some of them a little confusing, but has a wario ware feel. graphics are interesting, but I understand the aim. could do with some instructions though. pretty neat overall.
really cool idea. Really drops you you in at the beginning though, and the dance names threw me off at first. Once I got the hang of it though it was an enjoyable experience
excellent use of the theme! Game is HARD but that's not a bad thing.
clever take on the theme! The movements a little cumbersome, but I understand where you're coming from. It's a little unclear at first that you need to buy bait. Maybe some cheap freebee bait at the start would've helped. The clues that the fish is hooked isn't immediately intuitive but I got the hang of it quick. would play again, good job!
Fun stuff. Is that Punk-O-Matic music I hear? this is something I could see wasting an inordinate amount of hours playing. graphics are nice (considering the short time to work on them) and the game mechanics are pretty solid. Bonus points for snowman, haha.
fun little platformer. I love the way the controls feel, especially the jumping. The play on the theme is really clever as well. Good sound/music, good gameplay. Awesome job!
the axe/mouse mechanic is pretty nifty, but it's a tad awkward. Fun little game overall!
wowzers! this is one of the best entries I've seen this time round! art is awesome, sound is awesome, gameplay seems balanced. Are you sure you only did this over one weekend? Color me beyond impressed. My only complaint is it's not an overly clever play on the theme. Awesome work guys!
I love the feel of the controls. Meaty indeed!
this was fun. The voice acting was hilarious. little hard to tell how done the steaks are though. Other than that, good work!
fun little game. First Person Platformer (FPP). Jumping is a little Over Powered, but that's just a personal opinion. the move mechanic is clever as well.
Very clever design and use of the theme. Makes for some interesting puzzles. Very charming art style (even if it's a little bare). The walking animation is funny, looks like Igor or the Hunchback. Could use some sound. so it goes I guess. Good work!
@djk yeah that seems to be the common thread here. I toyed with changing it during production, but decided against it in the end. I should have submitted earlier, I would've had the chance to change it. Live and learn I guess. Either way, I appreciate your taking the time to check it out!.
@PlasterPhantom can you get a screenshot of that? I've never seen that except in the test world.
it's fun, but it could do with a little variety in materials. everything works great, it's just missing something. Good effort though!
This is a fun idea. Just a tad on the slow side. Graphics are really awesome and a nice play on the theme. Really enjoyed this one.
was a fun game. Bit frustrating, but that's how I like my platformers. art leaves a little to be desired and the music's a bit bland but nothing game breaking. also a nice subtle use of the theme. good stuff!
great fun here. Can't beat the classics, but a little bit of innovation would've been nice. Great controls, great sound, great effort overall. nice work
this is pretty awesome. Art and sound are top-notch. Gameplay feels nice. This game definitely deserves a dedicated session to play. great work!
super addictive for sure! Difficulty does escalate rather suddenly. It was nice and calm when suddenly I was surrounded by about 15 skeletons! Overall, I enjoyed it.
good fun. The attack collisions are a little weird, but overall a fun game.
I feel like this could've been a really fun game, but as you said real life got in the way. I don't fault you for that. It's a little hard to make out the snowman against the landscape. Controls felt nice. music is fun. Overall, just needs a little more work and polish but I think it could be fun.
Cool idea, but when you restart after dying, your sprite never goes back to "not-dead". so you become a moving, laying down corpse. Controls could use with a bit of tweaking but are usable. Overall, I can see this being fun with a few adjustments.
was a fun little game, a bit short but that's understandable. Art is very nice. Great work for such a short amount of work.
really hard. Sound would've been cool, but 24 hours isn't a lot of time to do things like sfx on top of building a functioning game. Would've liked to be able to move, but it definitely added to the challenge.
Pretty cool. The money thing was a little frustrating though, it might work a little better if the coins were attracted to the defender. Overall, a nice little time killer (and I mean that in the best way possible).
Wow! Very good effort here! Music, sound, graphics, all great! The tilt mechanic could use a bit of polish but overall a great experience. I could see this being on the appstore. Great work!
great mood with the music and the lightingt. the controls are extremely cumbersome though. and getting restarted all the way back to the beginning is a bit disheartening. The art could do with a bit more work, but that's understandable given the time limit. overall a solid effort. good stuff!
URGH! THAT CHECKPOINT!!! complaining aside, this was a neat little game. Definitely unforgiving though, but that's a matter of opinion I guess. Graphics pretty cool, controls nice and that death animation was pretty silly(in a good way). I could see this being a fun time killer at work.
pretty fun. Could use some control tweaking. Not being able to move backwards and shoot forward was a little off putting. Overall, a decent effort.
really fun, but I'm an RL junkie! The controls, while usable could do with some fine tuning. especially the attacks. Sound is well implemented, graphics are cool but not overly impressive. Overall, I love it but needs some polish (understandable given the time constraints).
that was a genuinely fun game. Great use of the theme too. the friction's a little low for my tastes, but it only slightly affected the experience. Great entry!
I really like the idea, and it seems like there's an interesting game here but the size made it almost impossible for me to play it. I like the play on the theme though.
instructions unclear, apple in ear. Seriously though, I wasn't super clear on what I was doing. and I think the deathnote/notebook screen is broken, but it could be my own incompetent. art is nice, very stylized. music is cool (did I hear some earslap in there?). solid effort, but could use with a little more work (such is the nature of the beast I suppose).
I liked the mood and feel of this one. The controls are a little weird (something I can relate to, ha) but it works out eventually. Music and sound are good, art is good. Can't tell if you guys decided to ignore the theme, or if it's just not super obvious. Either way, awesome game!
Clever play on the theme, fun game. movement is just a tad imprecise for getting into doors and wall jumps but nothing gamebreaking. Enjoyable tunes, enjoyable overall experience. Nice job!
very interesting idea. I could see this being very awesome as a multiplayer game. Awesome work!
This seems like it'd be a fun little party game, but unfortunately I don't have someone to play with. Controls are nice (but feel a teensy bit weird) and a clever play on the theme. made me think of marbles. Cool stuff!
Pretty cool. The click-to-move mechanic could use a little tightening up, but worked fairly well most of the time. This could be my unfamiliarity with the system though. The art is a little "programmer-y" but that's easy to look passed. Music's not terrible, but get's a little grating after a while, especially if you're flustered with a particularly difficult obstacle, but the death voice made me chuckle. overall, it's cool but needs a little more polish. Great effort either way.
I'm having trouble getting your game to run.
works now! (I hope the unity player wasn't on this page the whole time...I'll feel really dumb).
Wow...this is super fun. Really nice work!
doofy PC? catchy music? oh so simple yet unforgiving gameplay? Yup, I would've definitely been playing this in computer class in high school instead of doing homeework! I mean that in a good way, very nifty. Feels like an old flash game from somewhere like mathisfun or newgrounds. The bad coins are hard to distinguish from the good ones though, that was a little frustrating.
The art style is really awesome! reminds of me of old webcomics or Where's Waldo. Clever use of the theme. Game plays nice as well. It's a shame you couldn't get any sound or music though. Awesome entry!
cool play on the theme. The controls are a bit touchy for the precision required to navigate the mazes. And the red square guys all but disappear when you shine your light on them. I was never sure if my bullets were doing anything. Don't mistake my critizism for dislike though, I did enjoy the game overall. Very fun.
art style is awesome. Little weak on the theme, but it's still a fun game by itself. Sound would've been nice as well. Good effort.
this is an idea that deserves some post-dare development! it's too bad there's no sound, I think it could've benefited from it. Either way, good game!
Fun game. The movement could use a teensy bit of tweaking, but other than that solid effort all around.
I love the mood of this. It's like some kind of sailor-moon/galaxy express mash up. The art is totes kawaii ugu desu. music is catchy and fits well with the mood. The camera is slightly awkward to control with the mouse at first, but becomes second nature rather quickly. And that voice acting in the intro! Funniest thing I've encountered yet!
hey, I'm unable to get the web version to play. The unity player loading screen comes up but never does anything. Might be a problem on my end, but figured I'd let you know.
Good play on the theme!
I like the idea, but the controls on my end are a little wonky. I got stuck in an infinite walk loop more than once. It seems like a cool game, but I can't seem to play more than a few times without something going crazy. Might be my connection or something.
Good idea pulled off great! I couldn't even find any bugs! Really interesting take on the theme. Great work!
This was fun, but gets a little tedious after a few minutes. I absolutely LOVED the art style. Makes me think of a quirky animated short played on cartoon network circa 1998. the idea is pretty clever overall and good execution. Nice game.
Wow. This is a great entry! Music, art, controls, everything just feels great. Pacing was superb. Little weak on the theme, and the ending was a bit of a letdown but this is still some quality stuff. Great work!
neat little program. Boy does it give me a headache though.
I love the idea, but I had the damnedest time trying to get the computer to do anything. This might be my own failing though. And oh god dialing the phone D: I think this could be a really awesome game with a few minor tweaks (and more than 3 days to work on it, ha.) Very cool.
oh no D: the server's down.
Really great game! The instructions are a little unclear at first but once you pick them up it's smooth sailing (or launching as it were). Great art, great sound, I can't really think of anything bad to say (except the end, but that's understandable). Really Good work!
