Good game. Jump controls are a bit lousy tho, I kept falling down
@Eugenik, audio actually comes from incompetech.com , but I suppose this means we chose the right soundtrack! :)
@samdwester @pulni @sli @dongle Thank you! We are happy to hear you liked the game! :D
Really cool game! Love the concept. Sadly, I encountered the bug @duke mentioned as well, and couldn't continue, but I still had fun
Needs option button, restart button, and mute button. Otherwise nice game, a bit confusing at first but I think I got the hang of it
Some music would be nice - besides, most stores have background music, don't they? :) Rather classic game, I didn't gate far since my laptop doesn't want for me to click around AND press the arrow keys simultaneously, but I think I grasped the concept.
Nice game, but I got bored pretty quickly. I got some clues on what to do by reading the instructions, but I just kept wandering around and getting attacked by a demon every two moves, without any idea on how to actually complete the game.
Nice idea, needs a way to restart the music tho
Nice retro feel! Only problem, i can't attack with space because it scrolls the page down (playing on firefox, with the browser version), but i can still use enter
Really good graphics! Too bad I can't seem to aim well with the mous, it seem to fire way above where I'm aiming
Really fun! I didn't complete it - lost somewhere after the enemies appeared - but I had great fun
I got confused kinda quickly, maybe enlarging the perspective a bit could help.
Good graphics, the camera shift makes it a bit confusing tho, specially when you are next to a wall. Wasn't able to play much because of my motion sickness, but it looked fun! :)
Nice game! Shame it's not possible to collect all the lamps in a single circuit (or is it?...)
As others said, controls are quite buggy. I also liked the idea of "respawning" as a different character when you died. Encountered another weird bug, I somehow manage to get through a locked door by simply walking towards it.
Really good! It would have been perfect with some sounds, but it still transmitted the right mood
Very artistic! Everything fit to the dreamy mood, even the weird gigantic ball with the circus theme
Good game! Sadly, it was a bit too hard for me. Also, somewhere around the 4th level, I accidentally blew a box away and I couldn't put it back up on the button platform.
Really cool game! Maybe a bit easy, but really fun!
Didn't manage to kill the king yet. I'll try again in a while! Overall good concept, music feels annoying after a while but maybe it's just me
Not bad! More levels would be nice, along with a restart button
Really good for a first try! As others mentioned, some sounds would be nice, along with something the displays your current life
Good game, but a bit too hard for me, didn't survive much... ๐
Really nice game! The music and graphics fit the mood well. Wish it was longer, but I realize it's not easy to do more in just a weekend. As Vesper said, the fact that the game continues after "the end" is quite confusing, I kept wandering around for 2 or 3 reincarnations before giving up
Good game, finally got it to the end! :D
Nice game, really funny contest and nice humour! I must agree with @rein tho, some buttons were just too small
Nice game! Didn't manage to win, but I still had fun
Good and relaxing game. Well done!
Nice and funny, even though I keep losing!
Is Wizzard a reference to Terry Pratchett's Rincewind?
Resisted until night 21. I actually started losing at 16 and never stopped. Nice atmosphere!
The lack of context is what really makes the humor work: you are collecting random objects that fall from some weird machine and evidently cause clouds and meteors to fall down as well. I agree that on late stages it starts to get laggy, but otherwise it's really fun!
Nice little game! The graphics were really well made, although I would suggest a darker background for the prices. Music was also really calming, but didn't restart after it finished. Overall really enjoyable!
Not a bad game, but too hard for me. The graphics are really fitting tho!
Funny game, even if a bit too hard for me. Loved the graphics, the music and sounds also fit well
Love the graphics! Died at the first storm, sadly, but will definitely play again!
Died at level 3. Those little guys got smart! Good game, really liked the retro looks
Really cool graphics! The game itself was also fun although I still have to get the hang of it. But of course, what really won me over was the parrot mentor! ๐ฆ
Wonderful game! The puzzles really make you think. Also, nice story!
Everything was good, untill there came the moving platforms. Then everything started lagging and the game was not playable anymore. Sorry!
Wow! Really moody game, I can't believe you managed to make all this stuff in such a short period of time!
Wow! Good graphics and sounds, additctive gameplay... How did you make all this wonderful stuff in a weekend? Great job!
Nice game of strategy, but I always ran out of cards
The curse: "Invert black and white!" Me, a programmer: "Oh no, not the light mode!" Anyway great game! Love the theme
Nice game! Shift ended at 2739ยฐC, I hope somebody else will cool that reactor down...
Nice game! I found it hard sometimes to guess wether I could jump on something or not (ex. the tractor), but the game itself was pretty easy so this little difficulty doesn't bother me
This game is really really fun! I also love the graphics and sounds. Initially I thought it didn't fit the theme that much... Then I played the Entropy card and everything made sense ๐ Managed to get the 70% chicken achievement along with "chicken vs moozilla". Ironically, the chicken were also the first ones to disappear!
Really good game! Sadly, somewhere at level 3 my game crashed. I had just picked up a minigame but all I could see was an empty sign...
Nice game! May I suggest assigning a different color to the portal? Or at least making it black in the white world and vice versa, not always white
Really funny game! I'm not good at it, but I had much fun playing
@dennis-magnusson did a last minute upgrade about half an hour ago and added a timer counting down to 0. Now there's actually a victory screen!
@everyone thanks! The music is Metalmania, from Kevin Macleod
@parker-nalch You are right, the hitbox on the paper container needs to be shorted. I'll do it as soon as the jam ends!
@n00begon I'll consider removing the time limit (or creating an infinite mode)
@ljol3 I'm still not sure if that's a positive comment, but thanks anyway!
@everyone thanks, I'll think about all your suggestions!
@ache-games @frankiewhispers Thanks! ๐
@lucas-thomaz I used Godot. I didn't think about showing the different containers on the screen, good suggestion!
@elektroney Thanks! I couldn't translate your first message tho (tried with google, but the final result didn't make sense), could you formulate it with different words?
@chtimy yeah, I'm thinking about a post-jam update where the speed of the trash increases progressively, but i wasn't sure of how much to increase without making the game too hard.
@rubenwardy @dzejpi Thanks! I'll think about making the game harder in the future
I lost before even realizing what I had to do, so I suppose it fits the theme well!
Really entertaining! Those atomic pumpkins are probably the reason I got fired from my previous apprentice job...
Lovely graphics and sound!
Really good graphics and animations! The game is fine, but a bit too hard for my poor skills
Wonderful game! Really good job with the moods, I played it twice because on the first playthrough I couldn't raise the 100$ on time.
Nice retro style!
Fun! I would suggest holding the mouse button to keep shooting, but that may make the game too easy.
Really funny game with good humor!
Nice game, but too hard for me! Stuff kept not going where I planned, rage-quit at 2nd level
Died at level 2, evidently I'm not good at this, but I had great fun!
Man, curing those serial killer is hard! Loved the voice acting!
The game itself is really nice, but, for some reason, the controls are also affecting my screen, making it go up and down. I don't know what to suggest you to fix this, sorry!
Nice game, really innovative concept!
Nice game! I'm still not sure what resources do I need to build walls and fences though
Great game, fits well into the theme! Really hard to keep this forest from falling apart!
Graphics and sound are really good, they fit you in the right atmosphere! I keep dying every 5 seconds, so I guess the theme is on point as well
Maybe I shouldn't have played this so late at night. Good job with the atmosphere!
Definitely unstable, but fun!
Nice game! Could use some button to erase data and restart from 0
Really funny! I lost at 00:12, so close and yet so far...
Not bad, but too hard for me! Also, probably you already know, but for some reason in the web version the window is cut off at the bottom. Love the graphics in the tutorial!
@thementalsheep @mateu @mrdandro @mattfisher Thanks for your compliments! @mateu I put the performance issue in [the project's GitHub page](https://github.com/RYGhub/the-cold-night): we may improve it in a post-jam update ๐
@matt-rice @sampenland Don't worry, I'm not really good at the game as well - and I helped creating it!
@baconinvader I'll put an issue about obstacles in the GitHub repo. We actually wanted to make some, but we weren't sure how to prevent snowmen from getting trapped behind obstacles and creating huge clusters, and basically time ran out too soon.
@inappropriatename do you think we should add some more instructions?
Thanks everyone for the compliments! ๐ @real-flamingicecubegames Yeah, performance issues are a problem, we will try to make it better but - as you said - since there are hundreds of snowmen on the screen, it can't really improve much @skleembof Wait, i did record a sound for picking up branches! Didn't we... *[checks the game]* No, we didn't insert it into the game! ๐จ It will be there in a post-jam update, i guess
Simple little game, love the doggie. My ballon went off screen somewhere around 1200 points
Not bad! Died at level 9
Nice twist in the theme! I atually just threw the icebergs to the ship to give it a push back, but I see there are better strategies. ๐ Still, the Inevitable is way more robust than the Titanic!
Nice game! Sadly my pause button got bugged at some point and wouldn't work anymore (played on Firefox 99), but the gameplay is really enjoyable. :)
The web version has a weird bug: when I touch the full-screen button, the game loses contact with the keyboard (pressing keys doesn't affect the game), and doesn't gain it back even after I make the screen small again, I can only reload the page.
Played the game on not-full screen. Great job with the mood! I like the graphics as well, I was about to suggest some background music but now I read there actually is one.
Weird bug: When starting the game on windows i got this message: > > Your video card does not support any of the supported Vulkan or OpenGL versions. Please update your drivers or if you have a very old or integrated GPU upgrade it.
Which is fine I guess, but when I closed the message... The game music started. I'm currently writing this message with the game music in my ears, since I can't stop it in any known way other than mute the pc sound. Gotta restart my computer now. (The music is nice, anyway ๐)
Alfonzo best bleeple! Good game overall, but found some bugs: 1- after poor Alfonzo's death, the "back to menu" button didn't work, and 2- when I adopted another bleeple, they sent me an invisible one. I could still hear the little sounds and see the camera move and interact with it, but i couldn't see the bleeple graphics
Nice simple game, easy to play but hard to master. Just got to 10086 points and I am really proud of myself
I absolutely loved the Undertale-y style of the dialogues! Great job! Gotta go have some Espresso now. โ
Nice graphics! Enjoyed the game, even though I don't think it fits the theme much
Loved the graphics and the audio. Good job!
Absolutely LOVE the graphics! Unfortunately, I made a bad decision and ran into a checkpoint some seconds before blowing up, so I more or less got blocked in that area. Also, I find it a bit confusing that you need to use the mouse to attack while everything else is keyboard-based, but maybe that's just me
I'm not good at this, but the graphics are perfect! Good job!
Really funny! Beat the game after many tries. Somehow, I either get shot near the very first reactor or live longafter the third.
As everyone already said, wonderful job with the art! I love running back and forth pushing down a massive pile of random stuff. Also, I didn't notice little Tommy for 2 or 3 runs, and seeing his name in the causalties I thought he was the dog. ๐
Wonderful job with the mood! Really nice short game.
This is exactly the first thing I thought of when I heard the theme "Delay the Inevitable", only prettier. Great job with the graphics and sounds!
Love the graphics and the folk atmosphere! Didn't get very far tho
Nice little game!
A short but fun game. Well done!
Nice idea! I'm not really good at this though, maybe because I play with a touchpad ๐
The game was fun, even though I'm not good at it. Loved the humor!
Nice text adventure!
The music is astounding! Overall a really good game, late sages were quite chaotic it was hylarious
Really fun!
Love the humor! I won on the 2nd try (first one I only chose 8 babies because I was still reading the descriptions)
Really cool and well executed entry! I particularly like how the music subtly changes in each world :)
Really good game! Lovely graphics
Great job with the graphics! Loved reading the news
Fun warioware type game. Some minigames were maybe a bit too easy, but they were useful to catch one's breath
Nice game! It's a bit problematic that the jump key is the same as the interaction key tho
Nice game! The graphics were really nice, but the difficulty grew rather quickly so I didn't manage to win the game.
The idea is really nice but, as others said, the web version is broken. Cute fox! ๐ฆ
@chevalbancal Thanks for telling me about the bug! I'll put an issue on Github right away, maybe I'll fix it in a post-jam update :)
@martysarc Adding more workers would actually make the game a bit easier, since a new job spawns every 10 seconds anyway, but workers getting angry are actually a very good idea. Thanks!
@pauly3d I'll see if auto-selecting the textbox is possible, thanks for the suggestion!
@satacat i tried adding some progression to the minigames, but it was only possible on the Password level (the number of character in the password increases slightly) and the Vending Machine (the number of times you need to press space gets more and more). On both the files minigames, there just wasn't enough space to add any more files ๐
@amorykiet Thanks for signaling, I'll put an issue on github right away!
Loved the rather creepy mood, the music is really well chosen for the atmosphere. A bit too hard for my touchpad, can't get more than 4. Still fun!
Wonderful graphics!
Really nice graphics! I'm not good at this though, I lost really early because I couldn't find the peperoni ๐
Thiss will be a really good post-jam! As you said yourself, the countdown doesn't let you enjoy the game, but you still need to get shot by your doppleganger somehow... Anyway, you surely need to let the current action finish before your doppelganger appears. This way, at least people will be able to finish reading the outcome.
A fun take on the theme! Didn't get very far, but it was fun
Great job on the atmosphere! My game started spinning into oblivion too, and I also was playing it on Firefox. Seems like a Firefox issue...
I think I ran on a redcap just after leveling up... Nice retro feel!
A nice easy game, maybe kinda slow but sill enjoyable. :)
Controls were a bit clunky: Nice graphics tho!
A nice puzzle game! Good job
Really fun game! Loved playing it
Nice game with cool graphics. Sadly, somehow at level 4 my character disappeare. I still had fun tho! :)
First playthrough, I got a score of... 9 ๐ Nice game!
Really fun! I got 101 once, but around 40 all the other times ๐ Edit: This time I got to the rotating buddy, it was a really useful boost and now my high score is 517! :D
Really good graphics! The game was fun, but the main character felt a bit slow. If you want to continue it in a post-jam update, I would suggest some potions that do stuff (for example, they let you go through magic walls) ๐
Like every good demos, It made me want to play the full game. Keep up the good work! I have the eerie feeling I shouldn't have chosen to forget about the neighbor...
Simple little game, bonus points for Scratch!
Nice retro entry!
After some trying, I completed it! Nice game, it's a bit hard but that's what makes it fun. Would love to see more levels in a post-jam update! :)
Nice game! Found a bug where changing the music started the new track without stopping the previous. Oh, and this is "Storm on the Desert". masterpiece(1).png
Weird, the itch.io link leads to an error 404. Maybe you inadvertitely changed it?
Simple but engaging. Nice job!
Simple but fun! I particularly appreciate the control customization
Nice little game! I'm not good at it, but it's sure fun!
Took some trial and error, but in the end I beat it in 6:49 minutes! I agree some in-game instructions would have been really helpful
Really good graphics, and has a lot of potential as a demo. Still haven't found the right team, but I'll try again!
First of all, thanks everyone for your compliments! :D
@flying-dog-fish the tutorial **is** longer than the actual game, because i quickly ran out of ideas for new levels. The "harder" part was bot intended, tho!
@madbarron this is actually a good idea, I'll think about it. Space Ltd surely has a lot of ramifications!
@chaoli oops, I was sure i corrected that one! Maybe I didn't save? :thinking:
@croze yeah, I kinda wanted ti make an undo button myself, bit I'm not sure how to actually implement it. Do I have to memorize the whole grid every move? The drag-and-drop seems easier, tho
Really solid entry! Good graphics, good music and entertaining puzzles. Acolyte Biscuit was the most good-looking in the whole inner circle, no doubt!
2160 here, a simple but fun little game! I eventually ran out of food and walls and was killed by the red ball. Maybe different textures for daltonics would be a quick thing to add (I'm not daltonic myself, just thought it would be a rather feasible change for a wider audience)
Nice art!
Not bad for a first jam!
Really nice game! Only thing, my laptop is too small, so I could only see the card writings in full screen, otherwise they got too thin and pixelated and whole parts disappeared, becoming unreadable.
Cute little game, but it's rather buggy. I'm in front of a sign that looks important and I can't read it, my character only charges at it. Also, Shift key is not really a good choice for attack, since it triggers the Sticky Keys banner (Seriously, has Sticky Keys ever been used by anyone? I only remember its existance in this sort of situations...)
Really funny game and great take on the theme! Even if he has LIMITED SPACE, those pocket can hold a good amount of groceries!
