Alright, here we go. I think the DOS approach was really cool, albeit not super accessable. Within the first minute, and I'm sure this is DosBox fault and not your own, I was thrown into a dos environment and the game was gone. I have a basic understanding of dos so i was able to DIR my way back into the game, but this would have scared most people XD. The gameplay was cool, very early computer. I like it.
This was a pretty funny game, it should have more people playing it
Isn't this just regular chess?
I like the part where you go crazy
Nice, kinda funny, pretty cool overall
Space
This game hard XDD pretty COOL too
Ok, took me a couple of trys to understand this game fully, but I get it now. It is Inevitable that the stock market will crash. I think I like that more than the inevitability of death and other similar takes on the theme. The sound effect of the cards was good, although I would have liked some music as well. I understand this is a game jam though, so I can’t be too unreasonable XD. Not a huge fan of the card game video game genre, but this one was pretty fun actually. Also, the game was pretty funny. All around, good job!
This one was really fun! I liked how the police showed up when you commited crimes, like driving on the wrong side of the road(which i did for most of the run XD) The controls felt good, i liked how fast i moved. The gratuitous "delay the inevitable" felt a little shoehorned it right there at the end, but other than that i really don't have any compaints. Good Work!
This is a pretty good thing for only three days, i think mine is more rough around the edges
OK, so I have a couple of things to say. First off, the character movement felt pretty clean. I know it isn't finished, so I didn't know what to do, and I can't say it was fun BUT, I think it had a lot of potential. Also, I have to rate it, or it will get to the top of the list and it isn't finished :shrug: nice effort, i would like to see y'all again with a finished game!
I like the concept. The idea is cool, but I think that the ash doesn't move in fast enough, a run could be really long before you lose. The eating animation felt too long, from a gameplay perspective it doesn't make sense for it to last as long as it did. I like the art, the it was very cute. Stick with gamedev, i think you have a pretty good shot at making something cool! EDIT: Why can't i rate this game?
Had a monkey. Wat more could you ask for?
Hey this was pretty cool
This game was intense! It took me halfway through the market day to know how to sell Xd (On me BTW!) The art was good, the music was good, the actual gameplay left me very little time to analyze it because of how fast it was all moving! Something I have noticed over the course of this jam is that I like the games which do not go for the “Death is Inevitable” angle, but instead think of something more interesting, and I really like the number goes down. (totally not biased because I did something similar) Did I mention I liked the music? Good game!
This is a funny game, but i got soft-locked when i knocked the car over XDD
Bals. Oh, wow maybe my feedback sucks compared to these guys
Little laggy, but it's fun and challengeing. good work!
OK, couple of important ones to start off with. This game is complicated, but I am not sure that it was completely necessary to have THAT much tutorial. The game bugged out and I ended up seeing more tutorial than game! Something I see a whole lot is people putting the theme of the game into the text, which you did, but personally I don’t think that this is necessary. I know that death is inevitable, and that inevitability is the theme of this jam, so you don’t really have to say it. I don’t want to sound like I am complaining, but I think these are some important things. The sound design was pretty legit, didn’t want that to go unnoticed. The gameplay seemed pretty fun, although I didn’t see that much of it unfortunately. Very intense, easy to mess up because you are going to fast! I liked it, so don’t be discouraged by my comment, I never want to bring you down. I think your work is amazing, and the effort put in was far more than that of some I have seen! I really liked the menu btw.
I liked this game, pretty cool idea, but sometimes the buttons didn't work :( All around, I give it a good rating!
i liked it. Lasted for 164 seconds! In the end, the hose flipping is what got me. Good game!
The IRS is the main antagonist of the game, so 10/10 for realism
The graphics are pretty good :thumbsup:
A visual novel for a game jam game is pretty crazy, all the drawings are pretty good. Having music woulda been nice, other than that, pretty cool.
I quite liked this game. The art was good, The music was good. I think it would have been good if the music had not started over every time I died, because I died a lot. The gameplay was fun, but it took me a minute to figure out exactly what to do. At first I did not realize that you had to place the coal on the train exhaust pipe. The monsters attack went on for too long in my opinion, but I guess that the death of my player is the inevitable thing. I couldn’t beat the monster, (a) I am not good enough at games XD (b) I would like to go to sleep sometime (c) I want to play games that aren’t yours even though this one did keep my attention for longer than most have so far! Thanks for this one, I really liked it!
I think it should be fixed, but my internet is slow, so it is hard to check
Bookmarked, ill be back
I like the part where you are a paw. Not a cat, barbecue you are protect the cat.
Woo, all these comments have a lot of words. So, playing the game was hard because of my aspect ratio, but i see this a WHOlE lot right now. Unless you have a FHD moniter, there are a lot of games i cant play fully. I liked the concept for the game, and i would have played more if all the UI elements were not off screen XD Music was cool and relaxing, art was cute and funny. Good game
It get's pretty rough after the first area XD
Snail is dangerous!!!
Doesn’t matter how many times I play the game, I always jump at the tax collector! Seriously, I am very easily startled, and this definitely takes advantage of that! I liked the music, and I think It sort of blends into the background as I pretend that the game is a type speed test. I liked his voice, very scary. Gameplay is simple but fun, I like the take on the theme. This one will stick out in my mind when I think back on ludem dare 50 in a few years!
The game was pretty good, not sure how I feel about it's adherence to the theme because you do inevitably die, but it wasn't something you could attempt to stop. Not that it didn't follow the theme, just something to think about. The mini-games were pretty simple, I never didn't know what to do, so good job on that one. The timer at the beginning probably shouldn't have started until I started playing the game. I rushed the tutorial because of it XD. Nice Work though, way better than my first game jam game!
wow good game 10/10
I like it! The art is cute, the way the player moves feels OK, although like others have said diagonal movement would be nice. I don't know if it was just me, but I couldn't seem to aim up or down either? The power-up mechanic was pretty great, I really like games where your goal is to get a thing, but that same thing can make you more powerful. The music was great, gave me Zelda oracle of seasons/ages vibes (My fav entries in the zelda lineup).
Yeah, I like it a lot. The movement is a little counter-intuitive, but I think that adds some charm to the game :)
I did get soft-locked, between a wall and a car, so a reset button would be a good thing to add, not something I had thought of at any point beforehand, and I don't think anyone else would have either XD. (in the final version XD )
Me here pretending I didn't play test this game XDD
Can you add a way to play it that isn't in the browser? (Bad phrasing, but I use windows, so that would be awesome :pray:)Mine doesn't want to load it lol
This is a certified mushroom classic.
Anyway, couple of notes: I couldn't figure out if you can put the batteries down, so I just had to kill myself if I got the puzzles wrong Uhhm, the graphics are nice, music is nice, I like the execution of the game, I think literally my only note is there should either be a way to put the battery down, or a reset button :) OH! Also the battery charging was kinda goofy, nuff said
I don't really have anything to say that hasn't already been said, but I do want to voice it again, it's awesome you/y'all made a visual novel in three days. The art is beautiful, although I'm not sure how I feel about AI art still lol. I like the choice of music, but let's be honest, it's Tchaikovsky, how could I not XD
First off, beautiful game. I really love the music, and the game play is impeccable. This is basically what I tried to make last time I did a game jam. The reaper doing platforming is a really cool idea and getting to throw your scythe! Chef's kiss. I think a game with this level of difficultly was exactly what I needed in order to properly calm myself from my own stressful game XDD.
If you released more game, I would play more game.
let's see, negatives... pretty much none, all around 9/10 (not 10/10 because there was only one song)
@kepsert I formally apologize to your music guy, I thought it was all one song :)
@suchista My original goal was actually to add an interactive tutorial, but I ran out of time :( Maybe in a future version of this game...
Whoa, this is like farmeing simulator 19 but even better! The graphics are amazing! I've never seen such realistic graphics in a game that wasn't on a device like the PS5. But it still has enough cartoon-ish-ness to be approachable, kind of like nintendo games. And the gameplay, my goodness. I do have a couple of points though. Level 3 was totally unplayable, too many cows made the tractor turn over on its side. The music is incredibly repetitive, and doesn't differentiate too much from the static that plays in my head near constantly anyway. Subsidies are waaaay too difficult to obtain, I really felt like that one character who just thinks about them instead of actually getting any. Around half-way through the game, my character got sick from all the crop-dusting that was happening, and honestly I don't know why, because I only purchased one round of crop-dusting, but I guess some kind of glitch made it so that when you purchase it it just constantly goes instead. I cannot imagine why the character can get sick from crop-dusting, when you aren't even supposed to have the option of doing it more than a couple of times per month. The bad farming practices kicking in full-force around level 8 were pretty OK, but I thought it was weird how you went from normal farming to a feudal system and then back to terrible farming practices, but whatever, not my game. Uhh, I think there was one more thing... Oh, yeah, the vegetables tasted awful 0/10 on the vegetables.
All in all, I give the game a 4.3/10 for effort on part of whoever programmed the menu and settings, I can't imagine who would take the time out of their day, and possibly even own game jam, in order to program your game's stuff
(it was me, I programmed the menu and settings, this is just satire, mostly to keep this project from getting spotlight over actual projects XDD)
I suck, but it's a lot of fun! Coordinating the two machines at the same time was challenging, but very fun. The only thing I can say is that the direction that you enter on the arrow keys to make the wheat go from the combine to the truck felt backwards.
I like the puzzles, they had me thinking pretty good! The music was repetitive and a little annoying, but I'm sure you already knew that. The only thing I could say is that I NEED MORE PUZZLES
Yeah, this game is really cute. The balancing miiiiight be a bit off, but other than that there isn't much to say
It's cute, I like it. Would liked to see more, but I get it XD I think the sound effects for the arrows were kind of annoying, but the music was good
