LD46 — Keep it alive

Burned by the Poi by Risist 2020-04-23T03:20:37Z

Gameplay felt pretty unique! It was entertaining to explore the control's possibilities: throwing the fireballs, doing "spin attacks", or even just running towards enemies holding the flames. Setting the 'oil' on fire was also satisfying. I didn't get so far in the overall goal as there were way too many enemies everywhere, and one thing I missed was some stronger feedback when I got hit, as many times I died not being sure of the cause.

That said, exploration and the fire mechanics are pretty entertaining, it could be interesting to explore a larger dungeon with these mechanics. Good job!

I have to admit I almost gave up on the Title Screen, but great thing I didn't! (First I had solved the word, but ba-by was on the wrong side so I thought it wasn't working for a second).

Guiding the baby through the different kinds of panels makes for great and flexible gameplay! This one is easily among my favourites as it develops from the theme into these unique mechanics.

This was great!! The artwork makes for a unique ambiance, and the water-dodging segment was good fun!! (Small detail: there may be an issue with the font, some of the text seems to get interrupted right now).

Drop the egg Jeff by Dextreon 2020-04-24T02:04:52Z

Fun take on the theme! The idea of doing all these moves to progress with the egg was something I found quite humorous. In terms of gameplay, the physics offer pretty fun interactions, just the first segment of jumping and sliding is enough proof of that. That said, it made me wish you could somehow 'rescue' the egg with the slide, I could keep it bouncing for a bit but could never recover it, it would make for eggciting (sorry) moments if you could actually make a last second save by sliding under it. Good job!

Pump It ! by JulienLussiez 2020-04-22T00:11:39Z

Pretty cool graphics! Simple but nicely executed, some clearer ingame instructions would have helped a bit. This has a nice 'mini-game' charm, maybe it could evolve into a mingame-fest featuring these neat robots!

Niice, this one was pretty satisfying! It took me a bit to get used to the steps mechanics (at first I fell off for a while) but once I got the hang of it, it was entertaining to fight in this focused 'one-dimensional-aiming' style of shooter.

Oblivious Olivia by daichifob 2020-04-21T14:50:21Z

This was a lot of fun! The sea/sky interactions are a simple yet pretty refreshing tweak to Endless Runners.

Niice this one was a pretty satisfying arcade-style experience! Graphics were simple and vibrant and gameplay was easy to get into.

The first thing I tried once I had about 10+ sprouts was to see if I was able to "cheat" by pushing to the wall and reduce the horizontal space I was using, and it was cool to see that it was something you considered as they just expand again once you move away!

Good job!

@wilko @danframe @blloret Thanks so much for the feedback! We hope to add a few more enemies and details in a post-jam build! :)

@it-farfetchd Thanks a lot for the feedback! We tried to put a lot of attention to detail in the character animations, and while some things could still be improved I'm glad to hear it still feels polished!. Also we'll be looking into the movement issue you mentioned.

@a-312 Oh no!, Hahah, yeah being able to hit the king is a bit cruel but we ended up liking the idea of having 'friendly fire' to make aiming more involved. Thanks for playing!

@01010111 Wow thanks for the comment! It's also fun to hear since shooting the king started as a little dumb gag but it ended up adding to the gameplay as well!

@simon-rahnasto Thanks a lot for the comments! We put a lot into the visual aspects, the comic-like intro was among the final details we could include so it's great to hear it rounds up the experience, glad you enjoyed it! :)
