I like roguelike elements and DoS graphics! +1 to would love to see more levels.
I got 2 garbage lines because I read a little bit of the instructions not all :D It's a good idea and very intuitive when you see the scan line and notice that lines don't wipe when you connect them the first time. Good wordplay on the name. For some reason it's impossible to change the mode for me so I could only play the Trusty mode. Ardour also looks good, so thanks for the info <3
Sad to see that immersion mode didn't work but great atmosphere!
It got pretty hard pretty fast :D Good concept and music. I couldn't keep up with the enemies so they gunned me down, well done!
All elements fit well and good overall concept. I tried going upgrade route and failed :D then read the comments. I think only missing thing is music.
Very nice, I could only score 18 and I guess original jam version has some game breaking bugs(I couldn't connect any plugs to the colored sockets). Good sound design, but I couldn't figure out how to do the 2 connection ones.
Overall good game, I couldn't manage to get the workers over the ledge but used the "cheese" method mentioned above :D Lagged pretty hard for me each time anything jumped after a while.
Great looking game, good animations, sfx and cute spider. I didn't notice "current" text so made a lot of mistakes at the beginning. I was good at making spoon and fork but I didn't want to learn 4 tap ones.
Vibe is nice, couldn't figure out why my stats were changing (ex: I pick up crit rate up, and I get lower attack speed). Maybe it's about animals? Also fall out of the map while running away from enemies :D Good roguelike concept, it can be applied to longer time frame.
I think the idea is avoid invisible platforms and reach answers within 10 sec, but I'm not sure. I thought I had 3 lives but died in first fail, I'm not sure if it's a bug.
I like the overall mood, everything looks like they belong together. I think UI quality was better than in-game quality so it felt a little off.
Very good concept. I think it'd be better to focus the camera more on where the teleporter is going (maybe even zooming out a bit to fit the player too) so you can go for pro plays
I didn't want to read any text because I only had 10 sec. So random clicks until I get what they want was my way of playing. Cute art, good tune but I think theme with genre didn't match well.
+1 to dollcoded's bug, I managed to mess up the first 3 boxes, then game just got broken for me until a restart. Overall nice atmosphere (I was a bit worried that this might be a horror theme, because of the light setup)
Laser sfx is a little bit too loud. I like all the weapons and particles . I wish I could see more of the map.
Game doesn't load for me! Make sure you read the embed settings under the upload thing and index.html is in the root of the zip! (I had the same problem)
Looks nice and original concept, but it seemed like there is no end-goal (like run for 1min to escape ) or no reason to try to run longer or closer to 10s.
Thank you all for the kind words! I agree with all the feedback about balance (sitting in middle, progression speed, lack of things to do in phases - reason of why they feel long). I thought I fixed the coin bug but apperantly it's still there.
For the graphics, it's the first time I've prepared a game for LD, sorry, I failed making things scale well. Playing in full screen fixes it if you can afford to play fullscreen.
Thank you for all the great comments. @honey-pony these are good ideas, I think I would do 2 quick phases and one calm phase if I updated the game, instead of 2 calm 1 action. Very good points for positioning too, but I don't think I could've finished that in time with my current skills. Hopefully better design nextt jam :)
Very good atmosphere + love the old look! Took a while for me to figure out I gotta go fast, and use melee more. I think only missing thing is some sort of music.
Pretty brutal, but when you get into flow also pretty fun! Well done!
Great visuals & music like others said. I wish there were more "game" elements to it. Very nice experience overall gg!
Oooh yeah baby, factorio in disguise with music produced from sfx :smile: 5x belts feels great hehehe! It took me a while to notice that I cannot put belt on belt, but otherwise pretty easy to understand without reading anything. Last comment is: name might be hard to remember. Very good entry!
Beautiful, I can see some fx from shotgun king! I like the little deck building mechanics, and the main loop. I'm also very sad that the girl dies if you fail :frowning2:
I love little cubes bouncing in and out of the buildings :smile: Got surprised by the day night cycle.It's sad that far people never got cookies from me.
Looks very crisp :smile: Nice sorting management game. I'd like to see more levels that requires you to sort of plan ahead. Maybe there could be a screen that shows the next batch of the items, then you can plan how to most efficiently deliver them etc. Otherwise I think it's pretty neat!
Amazing reminds me all the games cartridges I bought thinking I'd get 9999 games in 1. Superb music, loading screen transitions, mechanics, graphics! Well done!
Nice one, I like squash & stretch when you pick up and drop stuff. Reminds me of blockudoku, great entry overall!
I like the art, I think the 4th game could be something more game-y instead of just math and/or could use horizontal mouse movement.
I like the song, graphics and game itself. I was lost a bit on why nothing is happening then I found out that boxes have a "front" side. I got to Amber potion which required 65% red, 25% green and was very confused, then figured it's 75 to 25 :smile: I didn't like that you have to destroy what you have and rebuild , I think seeing that everything "flows" is the best part of automation games.
Message to whomever made the sound track: You made me remember Sonic Adventure DX -> Emerald Coast track which I love. I think it's a very fun concept shooting a dude with cannon. Definitely not a game to play with trackpad (very hard to adjust the sliders) :smile: I'd like to have some skill that dropped me down in midair, or made me less bouncy! Very nice entry gj!
I really got excited when I saw the graphics, loading screen and the music was nice, super polished. Then I tried the first level like 10 times, and failed. Great game but the first comment applies to me as well :slight_frown:
@amolker Thanks! great work, re-adjusted my theme score :smile:
+1 to controls janky. Otherwise very cool idea, and "you don't know the contents of the package" is a very fitting way of making post office job more hell-like.
Nice graphics and unique idea. I think the mechanic is hard to explain and understand until you get it, then it's better. GJ!
Cool game with a nice twist. Very nice art & mood. Controls can be improved, I couldn't jump every time I pressed space.
I like retro graphics and unlocking new abilities as you go and how you present is very clever. I guess you can deliver the packages to any house? Unless I missed something. It'd also be nice if we could only deliver to the houses with a flag or indicator of some sort. Overall a nice retro entry, gj!
Nice game. You can hire more than you can pay and go bankrupt pretty fast (first playtrough). If you take it slowly it's easy. I'd like the game to have more juice. I think models look good for your first 3d game, I'd suggest tweaking colors if you want to improve visuals. I got surprised when it rained! GJ overall!
Pretty nice game, I couldn't figure out how to direct the carnivores I just baited them with meat, then picked the meat up :smile: Graphics and gameplay was nice, and it has quite a bit of levels. GJ!
Nice and short game, I think it's easier to play with trackpad. Very easy to understand too, so no feedback from me.
Super nice & juicy! The screen clipped out, so I believe I was supposed to see further? I like shooting & upgrades so I enjoyed this :D Well done!
Reminded me of Dredge so I was already spooked then I got scared with the shift, tried to enter the volcano, but it didn't work then I saw the ending! Nice one!
I got scared when I got red particles, brutal :smile: But good game, I think inputs could be on the bottom or had some margin they were kind of too close to top for me. But good twist on the theme and good game!
First two times I died without being able to rotate because I was expecting Tap = rotate. You should add HOLD A to rotate to the controls. I thought I found the correct person to give the package but she wasn't the right one. I'd start by having 1 target person, and an arrow showing where the person is with arrow matching the color of the box, so that players can find the person. Once you get to used to the controls it's pretty satisfying to move around. Maybe S = slow down, W Accelerate could be an option to add risk/reward and option for people having hard time to have a good time.
Very stressful for me :smile: I guess you can't deliver to the people that are not in the first place. Sometimes the text is too long and it gets cut, so you don't even know what it is anymore :smile: But that's how I imagine working in a post office, so good job!
Nice tune & graphics, overall feels good. I like the rules are randomized, so even if you retry a level you play a different one. One downside is, sometimes you don't get to apply all the rules (since wanted toys are also randomized)
Great! Remoinds me of old DoS games, also feels like a roguelike with the upgrades per level. I like it!
TD for this one is really good fit. Impressive amount of polish & levels, too bad I kinda suck at it :D
When I first saw the tutorial map I thought of TBOI but I didn't think that I'd see an "item room" and a boss room :D Well done, I don't have much new stuff to add. I'd say seeing that cards having rarity was also exciting for me :smile: GG!
Thank you so much!
@jdah @haselkern @kgurniak91 @nekowei Thank you all! I'd say music isn't my strong suit, but glad you all liked the game :D @tasakasama I thought about adding that, but I was out of time, sorry for that.
@sdelay Thanks so much! Glad you liked it hehe!
@ahsoo Thank you! I'm sure nobody is hurt, or at least they have insurances, so no worries :smile:
@silkworm-sweatshop Thank you so much! I don't know how to make a music, but I value music and Sfx I believe they add a lot to the game. Anyone reading this comment should play your game :smile: Thanks for the kind words!
@lucas-taniolo Thanks you very much! Glad you liked it! I have a list of suggestions collected, so added trajectory and acceleration to it! Thanks for the ideas.
@brandon-campbell Thanks so much! For the real life gravitational fields, I think it makes sense, but I feel like it might be hard for player to tell when the force is strong enough to pull the boxes. But I'll definitely be experimenting with it! Thanks for kind comments!
@wahooney fair point for the scaled down graphics :smile: Never heard of Ur-Quan Masters before but after listening main ost, definitely resembles the vibe, I just found the "instrument" in beepbox and thought it sounded funny. Thanks for the comments, I'll try to polish this up and release on Steam!
@jimbly Glad you liked it! Thanks for playing :v:
@dishwand Thanks for the kind comments, glad you enjoyed the game! Glad that my difficulty curve matched yours too :smile:
@benjamin Didn't have time to add more, sorry for that. Nice catch! Will add to the list!
@darchankaen Thanks and good feedback. And sorry I cannot play your game since it's horror, I'm very easily spooked :frowning2:
@ditam Thank you for the review! I wouldn't have expected anything close to this comment when I first developed the idea. I'm very grateful to your comment! I am planning to add projectile prediction and level editor so hopefully its should solve all the issues you have! Also power levels on intervals sounds very nice!
@sebastian-m same cannon, very different stories! I'm glad you liked it! I'll try to make it into a Steam game so lets see!
@tygrak Thanks, now that you say it, it is very similar to 2d golf! I could never deliver the same package to myself, but it might be a level in itself I think :smile:
@tan90 Well thanks :smile: I tried something simple so it's easy to make variations: here is a link for you https://www.beepbox.co/
Quite fun, and you can really get ZOOMIN :smile: I wish it was more stable so I could control more of what I'm doing!
Nice one, music is especially good. Sad that you can't carry 2 ammos. I thought I had 2 inventory spaces that I can use for anything but it's 1 for repair, 1 for ammo.
Just great! It was kind of hard for me to see the markers, maybe an outline could help. Great fun! And yes Futurama!
Cool graphics, I believe Persona was an inspiration? I found a yellow ray on my second try but I couldn't deliver any package. I think 2d and 3d art didn' t match, maybe outlined cell shading could be a better match. Good implementation of car mechanics and 2d art!
Well done on UI! You can always try the things you want to try again in next jam, so no worries :smile:
I love the art and general vibe. I think "delivering the loot idea" is very interesting to expand upon. 1 little bug, when you throw a loot when you are close to wall it clips through the wall, and you lose it. Very well made!
Only sad part is there is only one level, nive and easy to understand game. Congrats on the first jam & not giving up!
Mood gfx and sounds are really good! Really well made, gj!
Cool idea, I wish there was more exploration on different mechanics.
I killed myself with a shell 10/10. Couldn't manage to collect "hidden" packages, maybe bugged?
Oh man my nightmare, sokoban + rolling puzzle :smile: I'm so bad at these... I like the graphics & general mood, I'd like to skip the texts if possible in any game, so that was a painful thing to wait. I love the extension & retraction sound, I just pressed space randomly to hear that. Nice one!
+1 to double jump bug. Great bird walk animation, I like how they skippy-walk IRL and I think you've captured it well :smile: Congrats on your first jam!
Great game, add upgrading ship and selecting a route then ship as full game :D One point it's kind of hard to lose anything, but still feels hard somehow. Good entry!
@wheffle Yes, especially hard in jams! Looking forward to your next game!
I won, but at what cost :D I've been annoyed by both the person in front and back, so I'd say game is a success making you feel like you are travelling on a bus.
@spacecadet Thanks for playing. I think I broke the game while trying to get the screenshots and that bug I didn't have time to fix. ps: I'll start playing entries next week since this week is quite busy, I'll definitely check your jam entry!
@quasilyte Thanks for playing. Red letter means you entered a wrong letter, so you can remove red ones by pressing backspace. It should work in all keyboard layouts but which keyboard layout are you using?
I like the graphics and general concept. It took me a while to get that dots represent the grid count, I thought it was unlimited range. Very cool puzzle game gj!
I DIDN'T KNOW STAKES WERE THAT HIGH :cry: He died. Very nice game! I guess it'd be nice to have some variety (like some ordering drinks) but overall very nice entry. Final score: 16900
Such great art and sounds. I think I cleared the whole dungeon. Minions attack sfx is just perfect :smiley:
Nice, feels like inspired by Inscryption. Also very innovative and fun! I hope my keyboard thinks the same :smile: Nailed the mood. Great entry! PS: What an ending :smile:
That's a very big scope but pleasantly surprised with the quality! Not sure if there is a difference between hammer and sword though? Will play more lator to see if I'll get more weapons :eyes:
I really like it, it's kinda hard to know if an enemy is within range. Graphics = top tier! Good sfx too. Kind of short but also a very solid entry! GJ!
Nice fishing game, took me a while to notice that moving takes mana. It's hard to not die. I guess you can camp the starting area for a while? I enjoyed the game regardless. Would be great if there was music in the game part too, main theme was very nice!
I couldn't find why my miners wouldn't work. Ofc portal was blocking the way. Then the game turned into dwarf fortress a bit which I quite like. Not sure if there is a bug, but I got 10g per request instead of the gold stated near the summon while sending them. Very nice entry regardless!
That might be the game that became full-game from this jam. Very good entry!
I don't know why but I really got stressed when my chads were stunned :smile: Got'em at the end. Very nice entry. I wished for more unit types but fun as is. Gj!
[Screenshot 2024-04-16 093655.png](///raw/673/94/z/637c5.png)
Nice gameplay! Couldn't like any of the gods though :smile: Leaderboard is nice touch, kept me playing for a while!
Get rekt volcano titan :smile: Very nice art, reminded me of Naruto with the hand signs :smile: I think I summoned with 2 days left :cool:
Such great art and music! Seeing the summon circles is nice to plan ahead. Only bad thing was the game was too short! Good entry!
Solid entry with good amount of polish! Sad that's it's only one level but I'm the new king!
Thanks all for playing! There is no win condition unfortunately, so you'll get fired or I guess "resign" by quitting the game :smile:
@vidim888 My idea was to have vegetarian, chicken and beef burgers, soda, diet coke and regular coke :smile: But ofc I was out of time. Gj with 44, the most I've heard is 71!
@liole Thanks for playing! That'd be my poor pixel art skills :smile: Glad you liked it!
@byazzle Thanks for playing! I was thinking each day you'd get 15-20 orders, and new words so it'd be harder to remember them all. But I was out of time :clock:
@mmayans Thanks for playing :smiley: Don't be sad, there is no other way to end the game :eyes:
@meepster Thanks for playing. You can keep summoning, but don't expect to get paid :eye: :nose: :eye:
@altaf-creator Thanks a lot for playing! Ofc I couldn't manage scope to have "type" words in game (like chicken, beef, vegetarian for burger). But glad you liked the game!
@burnedkirby Thank you very much and thanks for playing :smile:
@magnusfurcifer RIP that run! But very good score. It's a high-score kind of game so there is no win condition. Thanks for playing!
Lol what an ending :smile: I am an Isaac fan so I liked it, nice entry!
Nice entry, glad to see Well, first run I thought I was unlucky getting /2, and /3 in two turns and losing. Then I got *-2.9 :smile: Glad to see a non summon game tbh. GG!
I wish there were more types of units! Don't know why but felt like it'd be a great swords and sandals type of game, where you fight random groups for money,upgrade, repeat.
Nothing can beat team slappers :smile: slappers.png
Kinda hard to play because I am very impatient :smile: Audio is great, idea is also innovative. Very nice entry overall!
Nice juice on units! Also nice music, but maybe a little too short? I liked the concept but I am guessing there is no win state? So I need to keep track of the enemies? Overall very nice feeling game. GJ!
Nice concept, reminded me of Atomicrops. Not sure how many carrots I need to defeat the flame thrower guy. I just jumped over him at the end :smile: Good entry!
Got the star man 4 times, not sure if there is more to it. Drawing feels nice, curious if I'm missing something.
I wished for some music, or more sounds. Great concept for a puzzle game, get's hard pretty fast once you get the piggies. Bonus points for starting with the cats :smile:
Damn a cutscene at the beginning! Couldn't get back into the portal after killing all the goblins, and I don't think you have to write anything in first part (I just smashed random keys) Great mood overall! GJ!
Top tier graphics, and lots of upgrades to unlock. Unfortunately my fire elementals decided to go for the third tower instead of the first tower so tanks didn't do anything :smile: Such good polish though! GJ!
Nice entry, gameplay-wise very nice. UX wise very poor. I was confused most of the time, but art and music was very nice so I stuck around to figure out the game.
I like this one a lot! Nice graphics, polish and I think best part is the music. Reminded me of old games :100: A classic puzzle game, reminded me of Chip's challenge with the pacing of the puzzle difficulty (and introduction of new elements/new mechanics with existing elements) Very well done!
Such a nice idea. Too bad I could only hunt 2 animals (on my third run :smile:, first two were failures)because of my poor geography knowledge and Eng. names for countries :smile: I'll get back to geoguessr then come back to this. Looks great, catchy music and it's a complete game. Very well done!
Looks simple but got my butt kicked :smile: Very nice entry with depth behind it! Sad that there is no gfx in title screen but game had very nice graphics, well done!
I saw someone mentioned +1 would appreciate WASD controls. Very good resource management/sacrifice game. Couldn't cure the patient but once you start a run, keeps you busy and focused. Gfx seemed a little too small, would be nice if there was a full sc. option. Very nice entry overall :clap:
As always I've jumped in without reading anything and actually got pretty far, until my main bee was destroyed because I was out of scouts. Then I understood what the orange things for :smile: It's been a while since I played this kind of game where you send "troops". Feels like a complete game tbh, my only feedback is orange guys attacking blue isn't that visible (I know I should've read :D) Very good entry!
Pretty cool mechanic and overall very nice entry! Made it to level 8, but died a couple of times since I couldn't grasp birds will move asap it's morning :smile: But feels like a good start to a complex puzzle game. Well done!
Great graphics and music :100: Also very nice gameplay! I wish I could also pass stones vertically, so I could clump them up and strategize for high score! I though I could pass the stone to the guys in front, I was very sad when they get crushed :cry: Overall very good entry!
Nice idea, I think 1 sign would be enough since you can rotate your camera and that sign could point to where you're looking. Got the creatures to end but didn't get any win screen :(
Such a nice game and anything incremental gets extra points from me :smile: I wish there was some music/sound in the background. All other parts are very good. Didn't expect to have an intro and an ending for an incremental game. GJ!
Thanks all for playing the game! I know it was short, I felt very tired during jam, so I didn't add more levels. - Cut content: You could suck the poopers and carry them around, and they'd only poop on grass. But there is no level to do that, and inventory got buggy so I cut that :(
@kernon Thank you! I recently seen luigi's mantion on sale :smile: Didn't think that at the time but my subconscious thoughts must have influenced the game idea.
@diabolical-sloth Thanks! I had some content that's cut, so I thought it's better to have the "complete" game instead of 1 more half finished mechanic. Definitely agreed though!
@jo-bettaque Sorry! I felt very tired that day, so I couldn't make more levels. Thanks for playing!
@jhax Thank you! I wanted some animations with everything to practice a bit :smile: Glad you liked it!
@nikolas-van-rus Thank you! There is no challenge, just poopers and you :smile:
@dowman903 Thank you! I had some ideas ofc :smile: As always over-scoped the whole thing and all things related introducing stress got cut out.
@antti-haavikko Thanks for playing and feedback. I noticed that poop sfx is a little too much, reduced the volume a bit but I guess I couldn't manage to make it to a good level.
For next jam, I'll try making better sfx this time I wanted to focus on simple animations :smile:
For the mouse, I knew something was off but I couldn't find what. AND THE CORD IS AT THE BACK? :smile: Thanks for pointing out :smile: PS: Next time I'll use ref.
Thanks you for all the nice comments :blush:
@initialposition Sorry had to cut some content! My original idea was having poopers at the garden collecting coffee beans (poop) and serving coffee at the front to customers and balancing collection + serving. Never got the time ofc :smile: Now, it's a chill game with smol creatures :)
@dhim Thanks for playing! Then I hit my target for level 2 :) My aim was to make shooting satisfying!
Very nice, I like you can hold diagonal too :smile: I would ask for WASD support for since my keyboard is weird and arrow keys are separated :slight_frown: Very nice game, I got to -9.00 before I got how to play, it also took a while to see renew coins lever. Very good entry gj!
Nice katamari game :smile: For me the game lagged a bit and WASD not adjusting to where I am looking confused me a bit. Very personal opinion Goobers are scary looking!
Cool little game reminded me of the golden age of flash games. Graphics, sfx and idea are very good :100: I think if ally AI cared more about my input then their will it'd be more fun. Now the melee dudes just go berserk when they see an enemy, and die. Also smaller collision with allies would be nice, it's a lot of time loss when you have a crowded group. Very good entry overall :clap:
Very nice entry for jam! I think there should be some criteria for you to be able to press Next Floor button. Also probably good idea to have miners with gold ignore collisions with each other so they can drop the gold faster and not make me mad :smile: Very nice strategy entry!
PS: Max Zoom in, Press both mouse buttons to enter rave mode :D
I like the general idea I tried to play as intended but then spammed search towards the end. Such a nice idea, would have been even better with a deeper/darker water.
I thought the goal was to go as deep as possible, so I was saving my tools for any blockage :smile: Then I reached the end with 5 gold and understood that it's a puzzle game :D Then it reminded me of DoS era puzzle games, which I love. Green fluid (acid?) not killing me was a surprise. Very nice art, sfx and levels :clap:
There is really no need to use the sonar when you have the giga-light. Maybe it could had some battery that you could recharge with "level up" selections, and you could toggle-on/off. Regardless, feels very good. I think it might be faster to go down as soon as possible and die to get points for meta upgrades :smile:
I wanted to get all the upgrades, since it was the most important part to you. I think it might not be possible in current state (or it might be my bad luck) since I've never seen a blue node even if I got all green fuel upgrades and went in one direction using my whole fuel tank :cry: I think it'd be nice with some UI that shows total gems I had, and maybe little less drag for the ship so we could travel further. I'd also like camera to pan to where I'm going instead of lagging behind for more effective exploration :spy: Only bad part is it being unbalanced, otherwise very nice game implementation. Also impressive with the upgrade tree :clap:
Best part for me is the walking animation :smile: Very cute. Good ending too :smile:
I wasn't able to start the game unfortunately. Maybe play button is outside of my view (I have a 32:9 ratio monitor)?
Love it! I found 4 hidden bars :eyes: Was there more? Unfortunately, I got bankrupt and softlocked myself by purchasing wrong materials (and bad rng to get 3 magic sword requests at the same time on top of that). I had a lot of fun regardless. I'd say, would be nice to improve pick up system using a shape cast instead of raycast, so it has a radius of selection. Well done! :100: Also, dwarfs = best race
Such beautiful game! I only have minor feedbacks: I think music got a little too energetic for what's going on, and going below 100 reset the counter to 00 so I was super sad. I also want to ask if there is an ending screen :eyes:
I'm impressed that you got a procedural mine going :clap: Not an easy thing to do in a game jam. Others have already mentioned, but I also would like to have something to spend my money on. Then the game loop would be complete. I think higher gravity could also be good to have. Despite that I think it's a very well made game :o:
Most elaborate intro I've seen in a game jam, well done :clap: Also good idea to have moss at the bottom to fill up oxygen levels :100: I think upgrades didn't have much effect since you could still see without light, and you can't use the shelter for anything it seems like. I'd rather have useful upgrades for my efforts. I really like the fishes including the shark, all were super cute :heart:
I'd like to say that's a lot more that what I did for my first game, so congratulations :clap: I think it'd be very interesting to see how it'd feel with a a natural underwater cave-like structure instead of the pool. I hope you get better soon. Props to you for continuing to work after :100:
Anything ore/mining related :100: Like the general idea and floaty controls I think that's what made it a struggle for me :smile: My record is 9800, sadly not enough to get into the leaderboard. Small issue in ultrawide screens: if you enter settings, you're stuck there. If UI could scale or resolution was set to a certain value that would prevent that. Nicely done!
Such a great feeling game, also very nice audio filter for underwater! I'd love to have more control and deeper water. Regardless looks and feels :100:
Very nicely made! I like how the upgrades are stories you remember, very nice way of making me care about a little story. I think there is not much to feedback on. If I'd choose one thing I'd really like a small walking animation of some sort. Also shame that music bug is not fixed in time. Very well done :100:
Fully destructible environment :clap::clap::clap: Also very nice game mechanic that feels fun to use. I wonder if it can be expanded upon for a full game. Super cool entry (also made me feel like playing a flash game, so extra points for that :smile: )
PS: Also thanks for sharing the godot lag fix :smile: Seems like a lot of people had issue there.
Inhaled the universe 10/10
This is my favorite entry. I felt like I just purchased a floppy from the store and got this game :smile: Weird but cool puzzle game!! Only sad thing was sometimes collisions not working properly and my plans going to waste. I'd also suggest swapping level 2 and 3 so you have many and can make errors first, then you have to be more careful. Hats off to you :100: :100: ss.png
I think you applied lessons learned from the previous game jam are very well applied. I wish there was music in the background, I wonder how it'd feel if you added it since SFX are pretty well made. Aside from balance issues, which is expected from a game jam game, super well done :100:
I think it's a very nice concept to farm under water. I'd expect underwater with no light to a little more scary. I went off to see if there is anything hidden in the sea :eyes: Surprised to find out there is a Terrain of some sorts, not sure if there is anything that you can find tho since I drowned :slight_frown: . I think font choice didn't fit with the vibe you're going for. Otherwise, very nice entry and good execution!

Headline: "Madlads make corekeeper in a game jam" I enjoy mining games, so I played until the end. Maybe the aim was to have the core of the game and it's ok. I always love to see some personal touch to the game ideas, which this game was missing. Enemies, huge map, and an upgrade system is super impressive to do within jam times. Very well done :clap:
PS: smol bug, I think if player damages a wall you scale the collider too so it's possible to squeeze between walls which I used plenty :smile:

Beautiful game! Only feedback I can think of: Using a more cartoony font would improved the completeness. Very well done :clap: :clap:
Nice, game overall! I think you could've let deceleration a little bit slower to meke it feel more space-y. I noticed there is light around the ship and it gives a nice effect when you get near the rocks, I think it would have been better if the overall look was a little bit darker so we could see the light. I also think time crystal is not a good mechanic, since you have to waste fuel to get it everytime and it doesn't add any fun elements. Well made regardless :o:
"Inspired by real events" I felt that one. Such a nice execution, nice graphics and sfx. Good mechanic to spread footprints on the ground when you step on goop. Also nice to be able to carry the buckets. Small useful bug, if you're carrying a bucket and press 3 then you spawn a bucket under you then you can press 1 to get a free bucket :smile: Very nice entry :100:
That's a pretty good puzzle game! I think trying out letters one by one should have some kind of limit. I think having DEPTH highlighted at start would make the game more easy to understand and give a starting point (since it's a good starting point in every level) Well made :clap:
This could be a flash game that had 100 levels back in the days. Such polish and super nice game idea with great execution :clap: I've also failed to figure out the cart, thankfully I saw the NOTE. Well made :100:
@badpinkchicken Thanks a lot for playing enough to get two endings :heart:
@scott-r-howell Thank you very much! I haven't played the first Dark Souls yet, but encouraging to hear it has FromSoft related vibe :bow:
@kukatoo Thanks a lot for playing. I didn't have time at the end to make it a better experience, sorry for that :bow:
@thomas-bringer Dialog not going away must be a bug :slight_frown: I balanced it by how I played, that's probably the problem. I should've tested some more with my friends to balance better.
Thank youuuu :heart: @dzejpi Nice! I wonder what you did with the tutorial now :) There are check points, but maybe a little too far apart, also you need to carry the totem to the next checkpoint to be able to continue from there. Didn't have time to implement skip story unfortunately. I also thought I fixed that bug :slight_frown: Thanks for the kind words :bow: I think it'd be a good horror game in a bowl alley maybe? :thinking:
@atsh Thank you very much for trying. I was going for kind of dark souls vibe, so I'm glad to hear it had the same vibe. Sorry to hear that the game is hard. I was planning to have it gradually get harder, due to time limitations I couldn't balance the level much. Thanks again for playing :bow:
@conradoclark I hope it's good kind of interesting. If you have the crystal and you can go up and out you get an ending. I probably didn't cover all the possible states, so you got no ending, sorry for that.
Thank you very much for comments and feedback. I liked the idea a lot, so I'll implement your feedback on the difficulty on the next version.
Glad you liked it and thanks again for playing :bow:
@mikeliosus Thanks a lot for playing and the detailed feedback. I think where you got stuck is one of the unhandled cases, my intention was either you can go out after getting the stone, or be stuck in dungeon forever. I should've added some text to say that when you use the stone.
Yes, I didn't have time to texture the platforms and triggers for traps, so they now blend into each other a bit too much. Very good feedbacks, I'll try to improve in later iteration. Thanks a lot :bow:
@urosh Thanks for playing and feedback. I didn't have time to texture the platforms, so the buttons that trigger the traps are super hard to see in current version :bow: Death animation spawning 3 times is just a bug, I didn't encounter. Thanks again for playing :heart:
@ellaris Thanks for playing :heart: The game is harder than I intended. Also playing in a dark room helps a little.

@3deimos Thanks for playing. It might be worth playing in a darker room or picking up torches with both hands :smile: Thank you very much :bow:
@muriel Thanks a lot :heart: Glad you liked it :slight_smile:
@beebster-games That's very encouraging to hear! Thanks a lot :heart: I've heard from a couple of people too, item pickup system is not stable unfortunately. Will fix when I return to the idea :100:
@torte478 Thank you very much! Yes, exactly like that! Thank you for the kind words :bow: :bow:
@oeuegha Thanks for trying out! If you played web version it might be related to the lag, I suggest trying windows build if you can :pray:
@oeuegha Thanks for the information :bow: I should rewrite the pick up system next time I visit the game :o:
@someone Thank you very much for playing! I think I broke the book at some point tweaking the dialog box animation :slight_frown: First iteration had non-renewable torches, then I play tested and it was a disaster. I must have forgot to make that one renewable! At ground level, there is a hole that leads to the vault where you can find the Amberstone. And depending on what you did you can get 1 out of 4 endings! Thanks for such detailed comment :bow:
@whateverdat Thanks for playing! Yes, sorry for that. I introduced a bug while polishing the dialog-box I think :slight_frown:
@commanderstitch Thanks for trying the game out! It's pretty punishing if you don't know the layout :smile:
@vangrail Yeah, sorry for that. I should've tested with more people and balance the times a lil more :o: Thank you very much for playing :bow:
@koalabear Thanks for playing :bow:
Very cute anglerfish, and now I've learned they also need to work hard to stay alive :smile: I think it'd be nice to have some more "landmarks" to make it easier to remember zones of the maps. It's now hard to remember which part you're in since only "landmark" is the bushes. Otherwise I think it's a well made game :o:
Very nice game :smile: I like to spam grappling hook a little in these type of games, so I found out you can yeet yourself pretty far if you time it just right :D I had fun! I wish there was some explanation in-game what each collectible does. (Played version 1.0 for accurate scoring). Super well made game :100:
Love the movement of swords and whole game in general :100: I think it'd be better if powerful skills had more cooldown, and more polish to characters. Impressive how many enemy and attack types you got in :o: Well made!
Nice one, found 3 different ways to die :D Nice models, and I think I broke some fingers for some reason?
I also had the Godot lag issues this jam, may I ask which version of the engine you used?
I think game could've used some gameplay polish. Coyote time and input buffering would be nice to have. I'd also say having more animations for the character would be nice, environment was so nice it felt like character was out of place. Very good looking entry :clap:
Impressive amount of things that are put in game, also fun to dig around and optimize dig direction/slot usage :100: Props to momo for putting up with my incompetence. I think it'd be nice to have some music, and auto-use miner's potion if you have one instead of game over. Great entry :100:

I was very scared after 1k depth, so I played the rest without audio and never left the down button :D Great mood, also nice visuals. I think you could've used a taller aspect ratio to fit better with the game, since important movement is mostly vertical. Well done :clap:
Feels like a webtoon :smile: Maybe due to my weird monitor (ultrawide) half of the game was covered with the "minimap". Still got to too spicy, so it worked out at the end. I wish there was more to this funny and charming idea. Well done regardless :100:
10/10 entry for first jam game :clap: Fun, looks nice and a nice mechanic. Well done!
Just like real life, it didn't go to the moon :frowning2: Good idle concept, I think it'd be nice with in-game explanations on what options do and if they unlocked after certain amount of coins. Nice one :o:
Pretty nice game, I assume it'd be hard if I didn't cheese it :smile: Having a "boss" per screen is super cool idea. Also minecraft crouch made me smile :smile: Such a shame sfx didn't make it in. Well done regardless!
