Fun little game, my best run was about 160 seconds. I would have liked to see count down timers for the timed upgrades and an ammo count down as you shoot. I also think I found a bug where I had only 1 bullet left and got a second 5 bullet upgrade but it didnt reload my ammo and I only had 1 shot left still. But overall good job, I had fun.
Was fun. Only thing I would change other than what you listed would be clicking the generators to add coal or even queue up coal to increase burn length. As the game went on I couldn't drag the coal as fast as it was burning out which started to hurt in the wrist a little but good management game. Lasted probably about 5 minutes with about €8000, all 8 generators and a ton of battery upgrades. Good job.
There's a good multiplayer fighter in there. Would need a little work in the main menu area, needed to load the game multiple times to read all of the text before loading into the game. And the controls for the other player not being WASD is tough to get used to but some fun to be had at this point still if you have someone to play with.
Tried to play but link was broken, I'm guessing you forgot to make the game public on itch.io?
I had the same idea as you, I decided to go in a different direction but when I was brainstorming a crazy cat lady game defiantly crossed my mind, fits the theme so well. Like others I had some trouble with the controls but it was fun none the less.
Game is very atmospheric, music and aesthetic are well done. The game play is minimal but it works. I agree allowing to skip the gold would help, I like the rock painting describing the more gold you have the quicker you fall but making all but the first gold required to pick up makes it almost a non-mechanic. Overall though good job.
@samboyer Thanks for playing :D glad you enjoyed it.
@tomer-cool Thanks for the feedback, I'm nowhere near the definition of an artist so graphics are always a hard point for my jam games lol. Thanks for playing!
Fun game. I could not for the life of me figure out how to beat the witchcat after collecting all the bones. Tried many times and still have no clue what to do. Overall I had fun though.
Not sure if the management of placing items back down was an intended mechanic, but I found the game to be almost a puzzle game of maneuvering around to place things where I wanted them while trying to manage watering and selling. Fun little game you made, over 3 runs my best was selling 9 plants, good job.
Nice game, the zip didn't unpack properly when I first downloaded so I ended up beating it with no sound and didn't realize there was supposed to be sound until I read the other comments lol. After re-extracting it, the sound makes the game much better. the little chimes and drums added to the music when things happen are a great touch. Very polished, nice work.
Very well made puzzle game. One thing I had an issue with is needing to put exactly the number of coins onto the pad instead of X or more onto the pad. Thought I was doing something wrong or something was broken and had to restart and try again a few times until I figured it out. Overall great job!
Beat it! Took me quite a few tries going from 3 to 4 but I found 4 to 5 easier. Those damn moving platforms though lol. Was a fun game overall, the aesthetic is great.
Interesting little puzzle game. I found all the combos and won but as the game went on it was getting harder and harder to click on the right tribesman I was trying to click on as more spawned in.
