The concept is interesting, but the game is really slow. When I already solved a level and I want to move directly to the end (like straight forward), I must click "Next turn" while my player hasn't arrived.
An option to speed up the time scale or the turn duration should be less frustating.
I really like PICO-8 games. That's a really cool engine. Your game is interesting and really hard. The rotation of shot trail preview is too long for me. Afterwards, nice work ;)
Your game is really nice. There is a great atmosphere with tensions. You should accentuate the difficulty when you progress on planets by punishing the player when he kills non-infected people (even if it's funny :smiling_imp: ).
I've also made a game when you must keep the humanity alive, check it out ;)
Graphics are nice, and a bit of humor through dialogues. Great job there.
Wow that's really impressive for a jam game :stuck_out_tongue: Nice work, I really like the gameplay ! Can't wait to see your next games.
Great work, it's really hard to create a management game within 72 hours (I know it...)
I was too bad to keep my dinosaur alive :cry: maybe because of the lack of Vitamin. All elements I got was 0 or less in Vitamin. Too hard to keep this datas up...
Also, make my mouse disappeared when I hover an element made me unconfortable.
The humor is here, and the idea is well executed. Nice job!
That's a funny game, but I'm always loosing whitout understanding the situation.
Well done in only 72 hours :sunglasses: Graphics are great, the gameplay idea is fun and the levels are interesting.
Only one problem for me is the camera. When I dash and my character hurt the screen border, it makes too long to recenter.
So cool and so cute. I really like the factory system. But I don't understand where the theme is x)
C'est ultra propre, il y a un vrai mood de confinement, ça se sent ^^ Beau taf
The rogue ascii style is great, but spamming arrows to move isn't a good gamefeel feature. I also have a bad visual representation of the environment, which I'm loosing myself.
So sad the game is too short :cry: I want to play more. Anyway, the concept is nice, you must tweak a bit the bounciness of the ball when it becomes a "water ball?". The level design is nice after the four pillars. The two first fan makes me loose my mind x)
Nice work for a jam, continue.
I don't understand how the game works. And the UI doesn't scale to the actual size of the game. I can't resize the game though.
bug-ld46.PNG
C'était vraiment cool comme jeu. J'ai eu du mal à comprendre quel élément protégeait mieux qu'un autre. Au final, j'ai passé pas mal de temps à l'étourdir avec le marteau :laughing:
C'est dommage que vous n'ayez pas pu implémenter des sons. Cela aurait énormément ajouter du cachet au jeu, en plus de servir le gameplay (genre le bruit d'un ressort de cartoon lors qu'on frappe sur la tête du personnage).
Je vous conseille aussi d'ajouter un petit signe visuel qui indique l'endroit où souhaite se rendre Boo. Cela permet de mieux préparer les protections sur le chemin.
Bon travail pour 72h, c'était fun à jouer :wink:
You need Blender installed to play the game. I needed a few minutes to launch the game.
The game is really hard. The controls are too much sensitive (and my Y-axis in inverted, don't know how to re-invert it). And why my vision seems to be zoomed ? It's hard to manage the character.
But the game is funny and doing that on Blender is well done.
I have nothing to said more than that was said before. You idea is funny and well executed. Perhaps, there are some cam/cursors bugs which making the game a bit harder.
I really like the paint effect. It's funny. The game become a bit harder for me but the feeling is nice. Only one problem: the shot SFX, when the big round enemy arrives and shot in every direction, there's too much sounds in game.
@rodi ahah, I hesitate to put this action into the game. I knew most people will use it :laughing:
@vibromatic Thank you very much. It was very important for me to land the player gently into the game.
@palsina I haven't enough time to tweak more the speed of the game and the notifications. That's the problem with this kind of game.
@moddingmachine At the beggining of the conception, I wanted politics and journalists to influence events in game. So, if "Romuald Grump" says something really nasty, this would trigger guerilla or something. But, you know, time in game jam...
@j-c-one-bit-studio yeah, that's the general feedback. I'm really sorry to hadn't tweak that.
@dvd Depends what you call "win" :wink:
@whismirk Merci, je suis content que ces quelques lignes de dialogues t'ont fait rire. Comme je l'ai dit précédemment, à la base, les news devaient être un élément de gameplay fondamental. Il fallait faire attention aux stupidités que pouvaient dire certaines célébrités et certains politiques. Je n'ai pas pu finir le système, mais j'ai essayé de les faire correspondre le plus à la réalité :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
@michael-horst Thank you and, yeah totally: the events appeared really too fast. I hadn't enough time to add more variety to actions, that's one of my regrets. As already said, politicians should have more importance in the game.
@bastian-bresson It's partially made to play with Pause mode, because of the –too much– number of events in a month.
@hollebecq-baptiste Merci, j'ai vraiment galéré. C'est un style très difficile le jeu de gestion.
@minusc Nuke doesn't meant to be used as humanity purifier :cry: but if that's funny for you, I'm ok. Thanks
@docgeraud Merci Doc :P ça me touche que tu aies pris le temps de tester mon jeu. J'ai essayé de tweaker un peu mieux la moralité, mais évidement, quand il y a marqué "Nuke" les gens cliquent :shrug:
@gamescodedogs yeah, some friends compared my game to Plague. But I promise that isn't my intention. Thank you, I see most of you like the introduction and the music. That makes me feel so happy!
The rocket feeling is good, but the game is really hard. The boxes drop quickly and when I shoot them, they sometimes just rotate before continue straight down.
Ahah really funny game. I love hurting everyone in front of me :smiling_imp: Nice work for a jam
The graphics are good and the "Long Dark" ambiance is a success.
There are gamefeel elements that would be great, like the character speed which is a bit to slow and the camera smooth follow is slow too. I think that was you intention, but when you really to reach other isle to collect wood for the fire, and haven't crafted enough power-ups, it's really hard.
Oh and "weeeeeeeeeeee" weeeeeee.PNG
The story is interesting. I like that multi-choice dialogue game style. Some english errors but still good. You're questionning about who are the real monsters in our lifes, with open question so. Great choice, nice mood.
That's totally "Jonh Wick The Game"? :laughing:
That's a cute game. I enjoyed smashing some enemies, like One Finger Death Punch style. Continue that way :wink:
A really nice work. The concept fit perfectly with the theme.
Some improvements I recommand:
- Slow a bit the game. - Put informations about the boss life's. - Don't close the game each time you die, it's frustrating. - If the introduction had already seen, skip it at the game launch (or put a Skip button) - Make a UI information for the supply mobs you can get in the dungeon. I was like "I had an ally, why is he respawning only after 3 turns ?" :shrug: - When you display the power-up selection screen, make the game darker, or let them appear in a modal window. That will be more visible and understandable.
The graphics are specials, but I like the idea ^^ Also, is this normal that, at the end, the number of enemies augment exponentially in three seconds ?
Can't launch the game :cry:
Very nice gameplay, this is nervous and strategic. There are choices, you need to go fast. Well done!
Nice work. The game is interesting but the more I play and the less framerate become. I decided to kill myself after ~7 minutes because the game falls under 10 FPS :cry:
test_extinguished.PNG
The idea is funny, but the random collisions are so frustrating... Sometimes, I'm just walking straight forward and get stopped suddenly :cry:
Your game has a great idea, but I can't pass the first level because of lack of feedback.
I play very carefully because when I kill or shot an enemy, there is no feedback (even just the destruction of the enemy itself). I was progressing, I suppose I killed every enemies (there were all down on the ground, not targeting) and my techno-oink has been killed without reason.
A shot sound would be great to add a nice FPS gamefeel. Talking about music, why is it spatialized :laughing: ?
Afterwards, it's a nice concept. You must work a bit more on gamefeel features.
For a first game, you've done a awesome work.
There are some gameplay and level design problems. First, you must explain the control when you acquire the capacity to do that. I'm asking why I can't shot with my bow whereas it was said in the controls at the begining.
Also, checkpoints or, at least, hearts will be a great help. Because of the shot rate of the plants, that doesn't let a chance to errors, I died too much. And a direction preview for the shot would be easier to kill enemies with the bow.
Continue to make games, that's a really good start ;)
The gameplay made me laugh, it remembers me "Swiss army man" movie. Nice work ;)
Well, I think it's too complicated for a jam game x) I was there, asking myself "ok, and what now?" while click on all buttons.
The second level is too much hard! I'm hurting my head each jump.
Good job for the level one though.
The idea is funny. I like to leg-hook all humans on my way. But the actions bar fill up too low. It's hard :cry:
This game is really intersting. You have made a good story based on friends around a campfire, with dark elements in the wood that made the story creepy.
The graphics are good, I love the "hand paint" style, the parallax forest, the details in the woods (that I will not spoil here). With the musics and audio mix, you made an incredible game.
But it's really hard to follow the story and collect wood at the same time. I tried to follow the story but died because the fire stopped. Maybe the solution was to collect wood between dialogues?
Nevermind, really nice work with Godot, I really like the game.
Oups I broke the game :grimacing:
magic_mirror_bug.PNG
I really like the concept. Just a thing, don't make the music reset after deaths and when you move into another level, it's frustrating.
The game keeps crashing when I send the beast eating people. That seems to be a great idea, but it's too buggy. A tutorial in your page should be better to understand the game.
The idea was so cool but, gosh, the controls :cry:
Your game is really made for arcade style. So, I think that the best solution to achieve your controls was a fixed following camera (like RTS style, or Diablo). With the fixed camera direction, you could level design your world as you want.
And the character is hard to control. I think he's drunk. That's funny but impossible to control.
I hope you will continue to make games and, maybe, update this game (with sounds, there are lots of free sounds on [Kenney website](https://kenney.nl/assets?q=audio)).
Nice work for a first game. Next time you play with gravity, let the player more space to pass doors and place more props to play with physics.
Continue to make games, that will be great to see your next games.
Nice work. A bit too hard, needs some tweak and progressive difficulty.
I like this game so much. I was try harding since 15 minutes, and then I pressed space to use my special and the game crashed with the same message than @ponypen :cry:
Ok, I really like the PSX style you made. How did you achieve this ? Anyway, the game is a bit short and I think the "run" action could slow the decreasing warm bar. The idea is great by the way, so nice work ^^
Ok, this is really good. The idea, the gameplay, the feedbacks, that's an excellent performance for a jam game. Nice work !
I recommend you to follow [this excellent thread from the creator of Celeste](https://twitter.com/MattThorson/status/1238338574220546049) to tweak the gamefeel features (like the coyot jump effect). The wall jump also need few pixels more to achieve perfectly.
Last things, maybe some indications in the levels design, to understand where you are in the level and which platforms you can reach. Like the following "And what now?" :smile:
heart-kicker_platform.PNG
I think I broke the game :grimacing:
i_think_i_broke_the_game.PNG
Nice game, so bad I'm french...
@mp-raxxius just after placing my first word and validate. I drag'n'droped the letters already placed
tension.PNG
Nice bug when you finish the game and want to respawn from the menu ^^ You have the ending screen but can continue to play :laughing:
Without that, I found the game too much longer. You could've shorten it a bit. For a compo, you made a great job. Well done!
Hello I tried your game yesterday during my stream! What a weird experience ^^ I really enjoyed to play it. I think it could be a really good "idle game" like "cookie clicker" where you just let it play in background, collect your coins, move on a deeper floor, etc... I was funny too! Only one point to fix: the screen shake is really too disturbing. I think you could make it with less amplitude.
Great job! And thanks for sharing me your work ^^
Here is the link to the video : https://youtu.be/mYqBFQerlCI?t=1350
J'ai déjà fait tous mes commentaires pendant le live, vous avez fait un excellent boulot et c'est très propre pour un jeu fait en seulement 72h. Quelques légers bugs à droite à gauche mais c'est totalement oublié face à la qualité du jeu.
Je vais suivre assidument vos prochaines productions ! :smiley:
can_you_dig_it.PNG
Ahah I've been stucked in the wall :rofl:
your_game_is_good_but_it_can_be_better.png
Yes! I think you must tweak the gamefeel of the drill. Spamming the button is a bit exhausting. It's totally ok to let the button down during all the game. It think you core is the movement, and it must be juicy to destroy blocks. And maybe set the spacebar to drill too.
The music and the art are nice, so I hope you will improve the gamefeel in a post-jam!
Good job :thumbsup:
J'ai trouvé le jeu plutôt cool mais trop court. On en parlait lors de mon live, mais j'aurai vraiment aimer aller plus profond (deeper and deeper lol) dans l'esprit et le passé des personnes pour vraiment avoir un vrai mind-puzzle. C'est très cool cela dit et j'espère que tu arriveras à en faire une version longue.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pYtTUKawtI
:rofl: That's really funny! I like the medieval art style, that reminds me [Simon de Thuillières](https://twitter.com/thuillieres) arts. The music is a bit aggressive on a complete run and the difficulty is to exponential, but the humour is present! Good job on that game :thumbsup:
Is it a good score? Is it my best score? I don't know ^^ It lacks of the storage of a high score, maybe in the local storage.
The game is fun but requires super sayan reflexes to dodge or eat carrots :laughing: The graphics are good ^^
The SFX of the rabbit which vomits makes me a bit sick 🤮
dig_deeper_and_digger.PNG
The game is really too hard for me (and I played Celeste). I think the colliders are bigger than they graphics.
Also, I recommand you to ajust your platformer mechanics to be more "permissive" for newbies (including me). Take a look at [this thread of the creator of Celeste](https://twitter.com/MattThorson/status/1238338574220546049), really helpfull ^^
The concept of the game is excellent. Some king of level-inception ^^ That's brillant, congrats! I will try hard this game if you made some corrections for stupids players like me XD
J'ai déjà fait tous mes retours en live donc encore une fois bien joué pour tout le travail fourni. C'est très propre, c'est fun et c'est assez innovant (au moins c'pas un enième jeu où il faut creuser ^^) Essayez de régler l'équilibrage et ce sera vraiment parfait pour un post-jam :thumbsup:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pYtTUKawtI
I tried your game yesterday during my live ^^ So, here are my feedbacks: - I like the gameplay, I was cool and fun - Your pixel art fits fine into your game - The controls are a bit chaotic. Putting the jump on the Z in a platformer is never a good idea. Actually, setting the Jump button on a other key than the Spacebar is an heresy. And, on a gamepad, the B and the A are inverted (B to Jump and A to Attack isn't a good binding) - The enemies aren't a real problem in the game. I think you can set them aggressive after 4-5 minutes of game.
Good job in this jam!
Edit: here is the link to the video [https://youtu.be/mYqBFQerlCI?t=274](https://youtu.be/mYqBFQerlCI?t=274)
fall_miner.PNG
Nice copycat of NinJump ^^ It reminds me my high school years :smile:
I think you should just tweak the inputs. Letting the spacebar down when landing on other wall makes the player auto-jump. But it's hard to get the perfect timing to stop pressing the spacebar while we are ajusting our position.
Good job with the tools, making music Sonic Pi x) Nice work!
Je vais me répéter mais au moins tu auras une trace écrite :smile: (et j'écris en français parce que flemme hein)
J'ai beaucoup aimé ton jeu mais surtout j'y vois un potentiel futur jeu complet. Là où, effectivement tu as une majorité de jeux de gamejam qui ne mènent à rien ou qui ne peuvent pas aller plus loin que la jam, je vois pleins d'améliorations que tu pourras rajouter dans ton jeu.
Déjà, tes mécaniques de gameplay peuvent s'adapter à bien des gens, mais surtout au rogue-lite. Ton concept est taillé pour ça. Entre les améliorations de l'ascenseur (pour qu'il ait une foreuse), du personnage, l'optimisation du minage, etc... Tu as de quoi faire. Tu as aussi l'aspect aléatoire de la run qui apportera de la rejouabilité.
Pour ce qui est du jeu de jam, je te préconise de fluidifier le mouvement du personnage. Il faut vraiment que ce soit un plaisir de se balader et de miner. Fais tester le déplacement à différentes personnes à chaque itération et tu pourras affiner le gamefeel. Une fois que ton mouvement convient à la majorité, et que même toi tu prends du plaisir à te déplacer, t'as fait 50% du boulot et t'as tout gagné.
En l'état, je trouve encore des imprécisions sur le minage ou sur les collisions lors des déplacements. Les inputs ne sont pas problématiques, donc il faut vraiment être peut-être plus permissifs sur les erreurs que peut faire le joueur dans son minage ? Ce sera à toi d'ajuster.
En tout cas, je suis très curieux de voir la suite du projet si tu le continues. Je pense que ce pourrait être un bon petit rogue-lite (en terme de scope, aussi petit que Heavy Bullets) auquel je jouerai volontier :smiley:
Bonne continuation ! Et bravo pour ton jeu de compo !
Bravo les gars, j'ai adoré votre jeu et en plus, comme je vous l'expliquais en live, je le vois vraiment speerunnable dans une version plus complète ! Donc bonne continuation et j'espère que vous le porterez assez loin pour qu'il soit complet :thumbsup:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pYtTUKawtI
Hello! I tried your game yesterday during my stream ^^
It really was a hard game for me. I tried some strategies to finish the game and none of them worked. I think you must level the difficulty like a linear curve. Here, it's too hard, too fast. Though, I like the mechanics and it reminds me FTL because of the management of the different parts of the ship. It's weird ^^
Great job on this game :thumbsup:
EDIT: here is the link to the video https://youtu.be/mYqBFQerlCI?t=1986
YEAAAH that was hard ^^ I liked the game, it's simple and adictive :thumbsup: I think you should have been more permissive with enemies (maybe, the explosion has a "coyote effect" and the collision of the explosion stays more frames for the enemies only?) And hope there will be a leaderboard version. You could totally make a free mobile version with adds :smile:
Nice job :ok_hand:
beneath.PNG
Hello! I played your game yesterday during my stream. And it was insane!
I think that if I wasn't streaming, I would have played hours. The only feedback I got is that it would have been great to get a little animation when you move from a floor to another. But that's all!
All the game is incredible. It was fun, addictive, interesting, strategic, beautiful and I will download it to play again and again and again and again for sure! Sad that you made it in jam. In compo you would have won the first price. I hope you will get a good place in the jam ladder.
Congrats! Instant follow on twitter though.
Here is the link to the video https://youtu.be/mYqBFQerlCI?t=4281
Really like the mood like 2001/Observation. I really feel oppressed by going deeper and deeper. This is a good narrative game! It would love a much longer story! :smiley:
Some "bad" points: the music loop is a bit too repetitive and is present to early in the game. It would has been nice to let some ambient noises during the travel and fade in the music when the black hole appeared. Also, the speed text is really too fast.
Really great job! :thumbsup:
lost-contact.png
Yeah! :sunglasses: Your game was really good and moody. I really enjoyed discovering the seabed, collect treasures and upgrade my submarine (which looks like a fish :laughing: ) Only one thing to fix: when the submarine comes to surface, its speed is too much reduced.
Great job on this jam!
Good narrative game. There is a nice work on the sound design and the mood!
The gameplay reminds me the old PS1 Harry Potter game :laughing:
I don't really something to say about. Maybe it lacks of a music when approaching the storm ?
Congrats on your first ludum :thumbsup: I hope you will make other games in the future ^^ I like the graphics of your game and the simplicity of your gameplay. The story of going deeper and deeper in the dream would be more interesting if the enemies became weirder. One point to correct: the music transition is too abrupt between scene. A fade in/fade out in the music + black screen fade would be great :wink:
@pandaderzwote Thank you! Yeah we didn't got the time to design more complex puzzles. Game jam things... :shrug:
@morg I made a patch to add the QWERTY input. I'm sorry about that, we are french team, and we have AZERTY keyboard so. I added the spacebar and left shift input if you don't want to use the mouse. But it's better (like any other platformer) to play with a gamepad ^^ I also fixed the fire SFX in the first level (it was very bad spatialized). The third level has a puzzle a bit tricky if you didn't pay attention in previous levels (the eyes puzzle's). The speed of the player is fixed because of the story (old -> slow, adult -> normal, child -> faster). I understand that some people would love to play "faster", but it would broke the mood of the game. Sorry :/
Thank you everybody! You seems to like the combination of art and music, and I'm glad to hear that because I composed the differents musical themes in a really short time. :heart:
@doot Yeah, I've made the music during the jam, when my game designer was designing all the mechanics. So I got a short time to create ~5 tracks (one isn't in the game because it was too incomplete). So thank you for your feedback :smiley:
J'ai pas trop eu de chance sur le placement des soleils lors de ma run, mais en tout cas j'ai plutôt apprécié y jouer. Je t'ai déjà fait mes retours lors du live, encore une fois bravo pour le travail fourni, et j'applaudis ton ambition avec ton moteur de jeu ! :smile:
Congrats on your game, it was really cool! A lot of work in this jam, that's nice. The music and the art are good. I have something to say about the controls. It's really hard, even with the two canvases on top-right of the screen, to understand which action I want to make. Like, I was at the final level to gather the big crystal with my ~20 soldiers, and it was a pain to click on each dwarve to send to attack an enemy. The enemy which dies something when the dwarve was going to attack it, and stopped his walk. Would be great, like SC2 or strategy game, to select multiple dwarves and send them once.
I really liked the game, and so sad to not fight the balrog at the end :sob: I wanted to send my army in his face😈!
The mining feature is kinda bugged I think? It seems random or something x) Like click 20 times on block, no desctruction. Moving one meter, clicking once and the block disapear :shrug:
The ambiance of the game should be more moody with a more relaxing music and ambient SFX.
I think you should fix the mining bug (you can do that even after publishing, if you write that in a changelog (see the [Rules](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/rules) of LDJAM) because it's barely hard to play.
Hope you will be aware of that! :thumbsup:
I laught so hard at those pink enemies :rofl: :rofl: Thank you for that!
Some points to modify: - On a certain rotation, the camera speed up too fast horizontally - It lacks of feedbacks SFX and background musics - A little information somewhere to tell the player if he got the card of the level - Remove the "ctrl left" binding on the Fire
Congrats for you first 3D though :)
It was fun. Maybe some hit SFX would be more juicy when the I'm on my murderous madness 😈
I find the black "entities" really chilly :O
I'm stuck in front of the door. None key are currently working :sob: I tried keyboard and gamepad, none worked
That's a good moody game. I love the graphics and the music. But the farming is really slow. I played like 20 minutes to get the silver pickaxe. Maybe I'm bad, or the random is not by my side, but I found the "leveling" really long. Maybe a more exponential curve would be great?
The battles are a bit rigid, but it's ok for a jam game.
Good job for this game :thumbsup:
That was 15 minutes of excellence! I have nothing to say that wasn't already said previously. I played your game during my stream, that was an very nice moment. I hope you will make a definitive version sold it to steam/itch/gamejolt/other. I want to buy this game :heart:
Congrats to the team, really good job!
EDIT: here is the link to the video https://youtu.be/mYqBFQerlCI?t=7234
The concept is interesting but you should improve the gamefeel by reducing the mining time and increasing the spawn rate of enemies.
Even if the player move really fast, I found the gameplay a bit slow because of the waiting time to gather the minerals.
By the way, the art is really nice. God job!
Nice gameplay. There is a great work on the level design and I think that, in a further version, some levels should add new mecanics (like push buttons, doors, water, etc...). More diversity in the mechanics would be a game changer for your concept :thumbsup:
I found the graphics simple and funny. I don't like that your score drop down by seconds while all the game is turn by turn. I would prefer a score that decrease on each move.
Nice job for this jam :smile:
Not that bad :sunglasses: Need me time to understand that the hammer can fix the walls and keep them breaking apart. The only problem I got.
It was really funny and hard to dig really deeper ^^ Good work on the assets, on the gamefeel and on the art, it was good :smile:
overkilled.PNG
This is so stressful, and I think that was your intention. So well played :joy: The nightmare cards were hard to dodge! The big problem is to read really fast the blocks to understand which choices I could make, and I'm french... So, near the end, I just drag'n'dropped card fastly without reading x)
Great job here :thumbsup:
One of the best game I've seen so far in this jam ! The art, the kinda sokoban gameplay, the music. It's cute and excellent for only 72h! And puzzles are brillant!
pqauerette.PNG
That's a good Downwell copycat ^^ It's a bit sad that there are no audio at all :cry: But, I understand that you haven't got the time to implement that.
One thing you should fix: the player is higher than one cell. So, I can't move out on some platforms without getting hit by enemies (like on the screenshot). You should code a security condition on that part.
qfterlife.PNG
Oh guys, it would be really great with more feedbacks! Like a glowing material with a "woosh" SFX on the orbs. The puzzles weren't understandable enough. Like, I finished the game and I really don't know how x) I just aligned myself to the final door and the orb in front of it and I don't know why she opened.
P.S.: the SFX of the door opening is perfect :ok_hand:
Wow je ne suis pas sûr que la mutilation soit acceptée sur certaines plateformes :rofl: en tout cas c'était bien cool. Je suis un peu triste qu'il n'y ait pas de contrôle manette, ça s'y prêtait.
J'aime bien le concept du jeu, à mi-chemin entre Savant Ascent et Hidan de Naruto. J'ai eu du mal à bien comprendre la mécanique de mutilation, ainsi que l'épée qui se remplissait. Je spammais juste le B dès que je pouvais et j'ai réussi à survivre comme ça. Il aurait fallu une difficulté plus linéaire et peut-être pousser le délire plus loin en ayant plusieurs méthodes de scarification (se planter la main, le pied, se couper un doigt, etc...) 😈
En tout cas vous avez bien du vous marrer pendant la jam et bon travail :thumbsup:
Bon, j'adore les histoires à choix multiples. C'est vraiment ultra audacieux de proposer un jeu de ce style, en français. Pour une jam internationale, c'est culotté et franchement j'applaudis.
Votre histoire est vraiment drôle. J'ai bien ri par moment et j'aimerai bien que ça aille plus loin, avec des ambiances différentes selon les pièces, des SFX (notamment quand on meurt comme une 💩)
Maintenant: - Le jeu se soft-lock si on prend la chevalière avec le génie-chevalier puis qu'on retourne voir le troll immédiatement après (écran noir, pas de texte, pas de retour arrière) - C'est vraiment laborieux de se retaper l'intégralité du parcours quand on crève. Un système de "checkpoint" aurait été pratique. Même en restant sur un chapitre. J'espère qu'il sera présent dans une version finale si vous continuez le jeu ^^ - Certains textes ne sont pas alignés, ce qui est perturbant dans la lecture. - Certains options sont clairement mal placées par rapport au visuel. Genre le choix de la porte "petite/mur/grande" ne correspond pas à l'artwork. - L'introduction est vraiment longue à lire. Alors, je sais que c'est une jeu textuel, ne me frappez pas. Mais, j'aurai vu un truc encore plus concis pour rendre la situation encore plus ridicule. Et vous pourriez distiller les informations sur la vie passée du joueur pendant l'aventure ; pendant la description d'une pièce, vous rajoutez un reveal absurde de sa vie passée. Exemple: le personnage trouve un cadavre décapité, vous décrivez la scène et vous rajoutez "ça me rappelle mémé -cette blagueuse-, un jour elle nous avait dit qu'elle allait perdre la tête en vieillissant, et elle a fini. Ahah, elle nous a bien eu". Votre personnage fait déjà des réflexions comme ça, donc ca serait trop bien d'approfondir le concept ^^
En tout cas, j'ai beaucoup aimé et j'aimerai vraiment voir une suite. Bien joué :thumbsup:
Nice game! I will try hard for the "best life ending" :eyes:
I like gameplay and it's really fun. The art is nice. The mine explosion range is not enough visible or understandable. Good job on this jam! I hope you will get a good rating.
KISS! Keep. It. Simple. Studip.
And you done that very well! Easy to learn, fun to play. The controls are very good and I only have two feedbacks to give: - More visuals juicy feedbacks. Your game could be playable fastly with more juicy effect (SFX, VFX, more screen shake maybe?) to encourage the player to replay instantly a new run - Make a better difference between elements that the player can touch or not. I was thinking I couldn't touch flowers (or mushrooms? I don't know...) even when I "finished" the game. I think I could move through some other elements like the metal frames.
Really great job for a jam :thumbsup:
falling_bot.PNG
I like the concept and mechanics, but the game is really really short! I have played like 2 minutes before finishing it! I hope you will make a longer version with more puzzles.
The music and audio is cool. I want to know more about that "sexy" story you're telling :smiley:
Nice work :thumbsup:
It lacks an background music but the mechanics are here. It would be great to get more levels ^^ Also, I noticed a lil bug: when I die, I can continue to move like 2 or 3 seconds. So, at the final stage, I died in front of the ending but still moved to the final platform.
The mouth-made SFX are hilarious :rofl: Well done!
That's a cool usage of the physics engine. The graphics are not that great but they're funny ^^ The game is not too short nor too long. Perfect timing :ok_hand: Great work! You must have had a good laugh during the jam :smile:
wheres_my_dynomite.PNG
Je t'ai déjà fait mon retour lors du live ^^ Donc bravo pour ton travail et bonne continuation pour tes autres projets :thumbsup:
Sorry, I can't finish the game. It's really to hard for me :sob: Auto-scroll platforms are not the type of platforms I'm good at ^^
But the art and gamefeel are well done!
Congrats! That's a really great first game! What a psychedelic experience x) The art is really moody and funny
The music was jolting on the webgl version, I don't know why :/
Yeah! Almost 1km! lost_shrimp.png
Nice work on the art, I love the fact that you made a shoot'em'up with a shrimp :rofl: It's sad there is no audio :cry: but within 48h, I understand that you can't do everything.
The big problem of the game are the controls. I think it should be better to not move the shrimp to the direction you place your mouse on, but simply on the horizontal/vertical axis. Because it's tricky to dodge enemies when your controls are inverted (you look down).
Great job on the destruction/mining mechanic! Impressive! I found the game punitiv and a bit unbalanced (items in shop are too much expensive) :sob: It lacks of a little ambient music.
It could be a good rogue-lite game (some kind of Spelunky maybe?) Congrats of the final result!
I have some troubles by playing the game: the time is slowing down when I'm not moving. So, I was waiting on the coin directly, without moving and it took me ~30 seconds to switch to the other world.
I get a 403 Forbidden error why trying to download the game :(
Jeu très cool. Vous avez fait un jeu simple et intuitif avec une difficulté très bien dosée. J'aime bien le mélange avec la dactylo, j'ai bien galéré. Les graphismes sont simples. Chose que je n'avais pas vu, vous avez fait le jeu avec Bevy, donc bravo pour l'approche :clap:
J'ai testé votre jeu en live hier donc vous pouvez avoir mon retour complet ici : https://youtu.be/WNONTMTjXsA?t=5393
You can totally broke the game by stopping only one pedestrian and wait as long as you want ^^ I decided to stop after a few minutes.
test_hit_by_a_car.PNG
Well done to make this within 72 hours alone :thumbsup:
P.S. hello Synty Polygon Assets :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Thank you @ussendayoo @aripize :pray:
Thanks @legolula I made the VFX and there were a lot more that I wanted to create. It lacks some VFX feedbacks (like the "oompf" when punching an enemy) and also a funny death animation. All those features would be put in a further version, for post-jam.
Thanks @cuc I made the child voice within ~6 minutes in the last run of the jam x)
Thanks @cheville during our playtests post-jam, we found that upgrades and drops aren't even. We will make a quickfix update to tweak some values.
Thanks @blue-pin-studio actually, we found a bug on the sword and the pistol. It will be fix in a later update. And yes, some weapons lacks of feedbacks to really understand what it's doing on enemy (e.g. the water gun is slowing enemies but it's not enough explicit).
Technically, the game is really good. I love the mood and graphics. Controls are a bit rough sometimes and I got some FPS drops while playing. The idea is cool and reminds me of Scanner Sombre.
Although the theme is respected, I found that 10 seconds is too much time to wait between to scans, and let the player wait until the next one. Maybe the fade out of points should be delayed, this way the player can follow already scans paths without hurting every walls.
Great jobs though :clap:
220 secondes pour battre le monstre, je ne sais pas si c'est un bon score :thinking:
Le concept est très intéressant. Mettre en place un système de puzzle-game au sein d'un RPG, ça me rappelle pas mal Undertale, ce qui n'est pas déplaisant. Pour le temps imparti le scope de votre équipe, franchement c'est très bien.
J'ai quelques remarques: - c'est dommage de ne pas avoir faire un menu pour baisser le son et/ou les SFX, l'audio n'est pas mixé de manière homogène ; - la difficulté des puzzles n'est pas assez équilibrée, le heal est trop simple par rapport au bouclier (qui peut être fait en spammant, mais ça casse le principe du puzzle) ; - ça aurait été bien d'enchaîner plusieurs ennemis plutôt qu'un seul gros (mais je suis bien conscient qu'en jam, c'est compliqué).
Quoiqu'il en soit, j'aime concept et je serai curieux de le voir pousser plus loin que le cadre d'un gamejam :thumbsup:
Little bug when finishing the game/last level, when you press "Next Level", it loads the main menu without the cursor. Only when to quit is ALT+F4.
I found the game fun to play, walking around, checking beds. But I think the minimap is really too much. I only played with this feature and I only looked my FPS view to interact with objects.
The sound design is great, mainly the monsters SFX. Congrats!
Vous avez déjà eu mon retour en live donc je vais faire court : j'ai adoré le jeu, avec des graphismes mignons et très travaillés. C'est un jeu simple mais efficace, équilibré sans tomber dans la facilité et le tout marche parfaitement bien.
Pour un jeu fait en 72h, c'est très propre alors bravo :clap:
"han c'est raté" :rage:
Bravo c'était très cool à jouer. J'ai beaucoup galéré à trouver l'astuce pour passer tous les étages, mais finalement c'était le coup de quelques légers décalages ^^
L'humour est très présent, que ce soit dans les textes, le design et les VFX, vous avez dosé ça correctement. Le jeu est un peu court, ça aurait été vraiment cool d'avoir plus de niveaux (ce qui est une bonne chose). Il y a de quoi faire un bon jeu de casse-tête.
Bon jeu de jam :clap:
Vous avez déjà eu mon commentaire en live, je vais faire court : le jeu est bien fait, la prise en main est immédiate, c'est fun, c'est juicy, c'est nerveux et il y a un vrai challenge. Graphiquement c'est plutôt cool et le mélange 2D/3D fonctionne bien (étant fan de pokémon platine, le mélange ne peut que fonctionner chez moi).
Les seuls points que j'aurai à aborder sont des problèmes de tweak: manque de visibilité du le signe du dash (les points en dessous du personnage ne se voient pas assez et se cachent derrière le décors parfois), le dash n'est pas auto-target ce qui est frustant quand on n'est pas **exactement** dans le bon axe, le screenshake est beaucoup trop puissant (il faudrait juste baisser la magnitude je pense). Que des petits détails.
En tout cas, pour un jeu fait en 72h, c'est de la qualité donc bravo ! :smile:
Aw I suck at this game :joy: Here are my personal best:
stalwart_planet_guard.PNG
Though, the game is pretty fun and you sure may have difficulties with planet, gravity and stuffs. I really like your hand-drawned (Paint.exe?) style. It is really cool to see how far you can go within 48 hours.
I think you can put a sign/feedback to planets you can go. It's a bit hard, when there is no other planets on the screen, to jump to another one. Maybe a little arrow to point the nearest planet? That's my feedback.
The platformer gamefeel is pretty nice. The theme is well executed, but the game lacks of explanations about its gameplay. Don't moving is killing me. Moving along a platform too much time is killing me too. The only way to survive is to be always jumping, that's a bit frustrating.
And, hum... How is this not spikes? This should totally killing me :joy: croissant_quandry.PNG
This is cool, I like the idea and the theme application. The game is hard but not impossible, it has a well balanced progression. The graphics are a bit simple, but readable. Controls are easy to understand and apply. Well done :thumbsup:
I really like survivors games. The game is fun but it lacks of feedbacks and juicyness (SFX when enemy dies, UI animations when you ugprade).
I'm getting real fun playing it, gj
I adore. I was looking for a wordle-like game to play. Nice entry!
@pipima thank you! Like that was said in the description, it is possible to rotate items while dragging them by pressing the spacebar. But every of your suggestions was planned in our scope... but we didn't had enough time to implement them :cry: It totally would have been a great improvement of the UX flow and the game loop, but we were too late.
The game is really too hard :sob: but it is funny! I found myself insulting other car like a I was in a REAL traffic jam :rofl: nice entry!
Controls are hard but the game feels good :v:
It reminds me the Unity shooter tuto, but the game is fun though :thumbsup:
I had some problems with the mouse control (it seems to rotate the view based on my acceleration rather than position?)
The game is cool and funny with a Portal mood ^^ good job
Haha really cool game, design & SFX. I think I found a way to resist more easily by spamming left/right and getting pretty invincible :rofl: Nice entry!
Really cool plateformer. Hard to control with the 45° angle mapping, but it's ok for a jam game!
Pretty much fun to play, and good job for the "mortal combat" visual
Cute game, but too short. I would like to play more levels. Also, gravity change is to long ; you should increase the gravity speed when switching it.
Congrats for you entry!
Ahah we had the same idea for our game entry ^^ so... it is a good one :eyes:
Really cool, but too short. I wish there was more levels.
Also, I got stuck because clicking on objects sometimes make them go out of the grid.

Like @danial-jumagaliyev said, I was stuck on this level. The wall jump timing is really tight for this one ; maybe because the spikes hitbox is too big?
Though, great entry with a Celeste/SMB mood. Really cool
Concept is interesting, but using only one button to manage the gameplay seems to be a timing game rather than a "puzzle" game.
Still, for a jam it is really cool :thumbsup:
Cool game, the idea and the theme are well done ; you should update your "randomness" to avoid getting middle too much time... like 10 times in a row :sweat_smile:
Great first jam game. It was fun to play, SFX and music are cool :thumbsup: Maybe it would have been fun to get more "puzzle" to play with
If think you should change the tag from "Source Code" to "Windows", because most people will think it isn't playable and won't download the source code (even if its .exe).
Omg I suck at this game :sob: Anyway, this was brillant, I loved the gameplay :thumbsup: nothing to say, I was fun overall and one of the best entries this jam, bravo Capture d'écran 2024-10-16 135655.png
Excellent jam entry! The game feel is perfect, the art direction is beautiful. It was a bit frustrating when approaching then game, resources placement is really unbalanced and and found gold really late in the game. Also, there wasn't enough flint/axe available and so the game tend to bit artificially longer that it should be.
Anyway, the best jam entry I played this year :thumbsup:
C'est vraiment cool ! L'idée d'utiliser New York en tant que petite ville où les "tiny creatures" sont les humains ça marche bien. Le travail sur les détails et le sound design est clean :thumbsup:
En revanche, t'as un entre-deux un peu particulier où t'es à la fois dans l'idle game et le clicker (surtout en fin de partie) où si t'es pas très actif, tu gagnes vraiment plus rien en IDLE. Je pense qu'il y a un juste milieu à trouver.
En tout cas bravo pour un projet solo :clap: Capture d'écran 2024-10-08 113111.png
ahah really nice entry, good job to handle the creature creation pixel by pixel :clap: I had fun playing it! Nothing much to say, I played the compo version without patches, and it already was fun to play :thumbsup:
Capture d'écran 2024-10-14 212308.png
The theme interpretation is funny but there is too much "liquid" for me ^^' I got a bug where shooting with two AKs at the same time (and holding the shoot) simply stops the SFX. Also, AK is totally unbalanced x) playing "Lucky" upgrade makes everything easier
Capture d'écran 2024-10-15 175551.png
Capture d'écran 2024-10-14 215409.png
I find the game pretty much hard to read (because of the low opacity of popup overlapping the rest). I think I see a Disco Elysium inspiration for DA and RPG-based, is that so? The game would have been greater to play with much more seperate parts of the UI/game (adding logs to journal dynamically, making the popup modal more important and text display much faster, etc...)
I hope I could retry a version with some quality of life improvements! It would be very interesting to play this kind of RPG-based game. The DA and concept are cool though!
Yeah, got the good ending! Cute game and nice to play. I would like to get more challenge, but it is a chill entry one :thumbsup:
Capture d'écran 2024-10-14 213808.png
Good job for the climbing mechanic. It is hard to control and something I fall by just climbing straight upward. My maximum is 11, and I tried to run as fast as I could ^^
Capture d'écran 2024-10-14 222421.png
Hooray! The portal has been.jpg
It was really fun and relaxing! Gravity is a bit hard to control but attaching multiple rocks and hang them to the planet is working well! Nice entry :thumbsup:
@mr-kliff Thank you for playing. If it's "a bit" difficult, that's the point ^^
@georgeburg Thank you! :pray: I updated the page with a spoiler section of every collectable, in case you are really stuck. Hope it'll help!
@chikendeath @absolushzero Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :smiley:
@gorglomux Totally, our first intention was to put many puzzles and hidden interactions in the game. But we finally lack of time... A sieve and a fishing games were planned, but we have prioritized the hammer interaction one.
Nice entry, with relaxing puzzle game (a bit of monument valley inspiration?)
But I'm stuck at level 5, the button doesn't seem to work :(
Capture d’écran 2025-10-07 à 11.29.31.png
Hard game, but I really liked it! Would love to see the same concept using alphabet :D
Really cute game! Give Conrad a kiss and a lot of food 🥰
Type2.jpg
Great entry, hard to understand clearly. And I don't know if I made a good score or not? Maybe a goal would be pertinent? Nice job though :clap:
Great work! I can only go to Day 4, it becomes really hard, really soon ahah! The gameplay is fun and easy to learn. It requires to choose quickly and wisely to progress. Well balanced too. This is an excellent entry, congratulations!
> Je ne fais que mon travail !
J'ai bien ri sur votre jeu. Pleins de petites refs bien françaises qui régalent. C'est une bonne interprétation du thème, gg :thumbsup:
Juste un bug à corriger: la direction du mouvement à tendance à se désaxer, ce qui est très perturbant.
Nice game with lot of humor (dialogues and art)! But I'm really to bad playing it. It requires some precision to drag people (playing on trackpad) and some gods has too much constraints too soon.
The art direction is great and well applied. Good jam entry, well done!
Cute little game to relax :sunglasses:
I got a bug where the last plane wasn't in the book (the 16th)
