it's frozen at the first screen
should not have let me draw the symbol. i was dying laughing at all the pee pees on the paper.
i feel like a jerk for not liking this because you put a lot of passion into it but if you are willing to have some critique: i think all problem come from how fast this game had to be made. a lot of the issues are related to show don't tell but you had no time to show. i think if you did this game or another game with alot more time you could have the recourses the flesh out the characters and story and show me her grief not tell me it. also all of the mini games where pointless and hurt the pacing. if it was just a walking sim the game would have been a lot better.
a enemy got stuck in the hall on flour 11. can not continue
straight up wont work
you do a great job of making the player want to kill the player over and over
this jam has a theme so people don't work on their game before the jam starts. the fact this won gold in two category's despite the fact we cannot prove it was made in within 72 hours is insane. the theme is there to provide evidence you did what you were supposed to do and not start development before hand. with this we have no clue if they did or not as the game has nothing to do with the theme!
@auxc the only reason I singled you out is that you won two gold medals. I am not saying you have cheated I'm saying you have no way to prove you made it in the time given. if this was just a creative outlet why not just make games during the jam and not enter it into the competition while still interacting in the community?
this is the very game jam we added "casual" for people who didn't want to participate but yet you entered the "jam" and didn't even follow the theme of the jam. now two gold medals have gone to people who didn't even care about the competition or follow the theme of the competition instead of people who actively participated in it and followed the theme, the theme we only have to make sure nobody cheats in the competition. you failed to meet the theme and thus should have been disqualified. though you did make a game. I give you that.
as for the cussing. I am sorry, I'm just rather vulgar and didn't mean it personally. but if you take out the profanity I still stand by what I said. though I will change my rating on itch.io from a 1 star to a 2. as I only give one stars to game I feel didn't even try, and clearly you did atleast that.
@auxc you keep assuming I am saying you are cheating. I have not. all I've said is that there's no way to prove you didn't. also I never entered the competition. the fake game on my account I have been honest about, i never tried to "make it" in ludum dare, nor have i tried to decisive or lie. I just made an account and was messing around with the website settings as im sure you have. that and if I was a hypocrite it would not matter as my pervious history is not the topic of discussion and if a murderer said murder was wrong his point wouldn't hold less weight just because of hypocrisy.
also how happy you are about your win isn't of debate either. it holds no water to my issue.
my point is this: i suggest you look into how almost every film and short story competition does there events. if you don't follow the theme, they disqualify you. all jam and compo devs should have to follow the theme. if the rules state otherwise then we need a rule change. other wise this entire site is meaningless. obviously it isn't as casual is an option now. but yet without people forcing themes to be followed every category is casual. as of now the medals, praise, and acylation's are meaningless as i could just upload the entirety of lets say: Disco Elysium, say i worked on it in 72 hours, win gold in every category, and not follow the theme and you couldn't prove i didn't work before the jam because you can just ignore the theme. its unfair to contestants who actually do the game jam.
again im NOT saying you have. the main issue here is that there is a clear issue with the jam and it needs to be fixed.
what other jams do is relevant when it come to having anyrules at all. our medals might as well be chocolate at this point
first boss: 2 gusto cards
me: three pistol cards and two cards that let me attack with my shield. it being the first round I don't have shield.
