Very nice game. I had a lot of fun playing it. ๐
2 things you could improve IMO: 1/ The large enemies kill doesn't give a really positive feedback when killed I would have expected the game to end, the score to take 50 points or at least have a visual feedback. 2/ I think there is small bug with the cheese bonuses, when you take 2 in a row I think the second one doesn't "refresh" the timer during which you would have the bonus.
Fun game :)
Ok that **was very geeky** but loved it :D Very original concept and it works well I lost at the demon because I thing my deck was not good enough. With some better graphisms and a bit of juice this could be a very interesting game!
Hey nice work, I like the minigame and the old-school pixel style the game has. ๐
Small bug: the potions were not going not the potion tab, but I think you noticed.
I which there were some clue on how to brew different potions because once I did all the 2 items combinations I didn't know what to do and it seemed too much work to try every 3 items combinations
I've got the same love/hate feeling than "Getting over it" great job :D
Hahaha definitely made me smile ๐
Give this game cuteness award already.
The game idea is great and funny.
You should post that on https://www.reddit.com/r/ethtrader/ they will love it ๐
My score
Capture.PNG
Dude well done. I love the graphics, and the balance mechanism is pretty well done. I manage to finish the game after a few tries and definitely had fun.
Fun game, the graphics needs a bit polishing but the gameplay is here. ๐ I had some slowdown on the game unfortunately I don't know why.
One of the most innovative game of the JAM IMHO, Great Art and the music give it a very particular mood I love it.
Congratz.
Great work dude. Love the game graphics and sound effects. The game is pretty well balanced as well. I ended up mad clicking my mouse to reach the 100 before the iceberg sink.
Fun card game I'll try to try the online version with friends! Love the music by the way ๐
Fun game that reminds me of doodle jump.๐
I which there was another button for the bullet time tho' because it's not very useful right now I feel.
The trailer got me into playing this ahah.
The game is fun, and really enjoyed the dialogs. Great job ๐
Love the art and feel of it The music is amazing ๐
Great job!
I really liked the mood of it. The game is challenging but doable that's a great balance you found.
I have no idea what I just payed but I loved the mood of it :D
Fun concept man. I love the juice the game has the graphism and the sound effect, great job! (NB: I stopped at the boss level that was a bit too challenging for me ๐)
Great job with the game.
I really like the different ideas. Although I feel like the telekinesis is kinda overpowered.
I wish I would have been able to restart the level when I lost to see the end :)
Damned I could have read, my bad ๐
Hey I like how it looks and the idea seems interesting but like the others I had a hard time with the controls. I feel like most of them could have been simple clicks ?
Fun twist on the sokoban genre! The puzzles just hard enough and I loved that you could just rollback one turn it makes them much more enjoyable.
Very fun to play with the controller. Understanding the rules was part of the fun. It took me a long time to beat the first level with a dog because I did not realize you had to be "angry" to open doors
I loved it, when through the end and kill the boss. I remark: at first I knew I had to input these args somewhere but couldn't find the input box. Maybe it could be more obvious. Almost gave-up due to this. Also I love the graphics from the character did you do it yourself ?
Great job. I really enjoyed playing.
The buttons where a bit unclear at first but playing with them you quickly understand what they do. I still wonder what is the optimal strategy ๐ค
Good job with the game. The dialogs are great, that kept me going till the end.
Ahaha and I just got the "outro" scene while writing this. Definitely made me smile ๐
Cool art great mood, and I like the idea of the back story. I which there would have been another button to choose and to trigger the powers it was sometimes confusing when trying to choose a power standing on a mark. Also I got a crash after accidentally choosing level 1 after 3rd level and trying to change level with escape (which I think you can't ?)
Great concept, I'm awful at figuring our the direction on a map... I feel like this game could help ^^.
Thanks @3amsoda I'll try upgrading the Godot version before the end of the jam :)
@wafflecomposite Oops you're right: French AZERTY keyboard here! I'll fix it right away :D
Edit: And yes the mechanisms are completely inspired from "the Witness"!
@mechanizedit @zachary-shah @lenan @drtizzle @corbeng @z0rly @ratogodoy @maluskhan
**Thanks for the feedback** I tried adding some indications on the first rooms to help the player understand how to go forward! ๐
It's a difficult balance tho' because, like in the witness, part of the fun is about understanding the rules fo the puzzles. And it also backup the story about healing and trying to understand stuff again. So I cannot just give them away ๐
@stefanie-leitch Try finishing it that's not the end of the story ๐ (And there is save system so you won't restart from the beginning)
@zwodahs Yes there is a save system (auto save after each puzzle) Thanks a lot for your appreciation that's great to read ๐
Small question had you played "The Witness" before ? it seems that people that did are doing better at start.
@hartvichio Thanks dude! In fact I intentionally let people edit the puzzle so that they can "try again" on puzzle they already solved to understand the rule (sometimes there is several ways to solve the same puzzle and if you solve it a second time you have a visual feedback). But I agree that I should find a way to let the user go back to the "solved" position quickly
@david-bohan thanks! And yes they are. They "heal" bit by bit when you solve puzzles :)
@raykon Thanks and Bravo. Your are one of the 26 people who completed the game on a total of 186 players that completed the first zone so far ๐
@zettelkasten hey the white is the "default" color it doesn't follow the first rule of the game. Only the colored cells do! So they can be different. Congrats on getting here just a small effort left ๐
@rolly Thanks man it means a lot!
Question for you so I understand if there is a flaw in the game design.
When you say "I couldnโt figure out what the double-line connector means"
Did you complete the first island on the left and got stuck at the second island.
Or did you manage to solve the puzzle to go right and never went to the small islands on the left ?
@rolly Ok that's what I though, you were not supposed to be able to solve the "pink doy" puzzles before going on the small islands on the left of the map. ๐ That's where you'll discover the "double-line" rule.
You should try going back on your steps and explore the left of the map.
I think I should have made the 2 puzzles with pink dots harder some people manage to pass without their "tutorial" ๐
@farouchelark indeed the 3 dots rule might not be "progressive" enough (3 easy puzzle then a very hard one). I've worked on a patch of the game for after the jam :) A hint maybe: the number of dots might match a number of *something*. Try going back to the "easy puzzles" you brute forced and understand why they worked
@euler-moises try going left instead of going to the obvious puzzles on the right. You are not ready to solve those yet I think.
Fun game ๐ The twits with the dragon showing up was fun I didn't manage to kill it tho
Very relaxing game and the game mechanic is so unique. Bravo. I love the mix of pixel art 2d and low poly 3d for the environment! A win screen would be the only thing I would add :)
Just loved it, love the graphics with a mix of 2d pixel and 3d. Congratz dude
Fun game, enjoy the minimalist graphics like that. One thing that could be improved: the music loop is very small it gets annoying after a bit. ๐
Fun game,I love these text games.
But man I'm bad at typing. I wonder if there is something more after the shooting ?
Amazing game, I love the graphisms the idea feels like 2048 on steroid with a touch of cuteness. And the music ๐ Great job
Are the AI too good or am I missing something I can't manage to bring back more than 1 Or
I love the mood of the game, the 3d is simple but it works very well. Great job!
Great jump dude , log the 8x8 graphics But omg the game is so hard from the very beginning xD
I love how the game looks did you do them from scratch for the jam? If you did that's impressive ๐ฎ Great game
Done ๐
Lot of "potions games" for this jam but yours is by far my favorite. The idea is simple yet challenging. having to switch between the 2 screens to see customer commands or remove ingredient adds a lot to the gameplay.
Love the graphisms as well.
Well done.
I love how the game turn our to really not be an idle game but the story endup being the most important thing of it!
I was 20$ short to win the game at the end...
I guess I was not considerate enough of the forest. ๐
Hey nice idea. one thing that you could improve is that it's not possible to press jump when walking left at the same time. That makes the game quite hard. Also the jump physic could be improved to feel smoother I think.
Nice this time I managed to finish the game, much more enjoyable! I like the lemming look of the character ๐
Nice game man, an interesting twist on the "idle game" genre.
This was kind of wtf but overall a fun moment :D I liked the voxel art of the character I wish the rest would have been similar
Great game ! I love the music, sound effect and the retro feel it has. 2 things I think could be improved: 1/ Sometimes I feel like there is no way to past a wall of debris that's a bit frustrating. 2/ The same way you have a sound indicator when you go override I would add a sound indicator for when the fuel is very low and you need to stop using some.
Ahh I did not understand that you could blast through at all! @parker-nalch
Love the physics and the music! The yellow tint of the game looks great too. Good job! ๐
Coming and leaving a planet was the really challenging part and I it took me a while to understand that you needed to leave your ship and come back to sell stuff.
I would have liked to be able to use W and S to move forwad and backward, turning the ship was not very handy and I didn't feel it added much to the gameplay.
Love the 8 bits graphics, nice music :)
I love physics puzzle, It's always fun to see the things moving from their own and hope they go at the right place. I would have liked having a bit more impact on the game tho' I feel like the outcome was sometimes random and I didn't have much control hover it.
Hey the concept is really cool. It has some overcooked vibe that I love.
Very cool game, But I failed to understand the "king" bit I think. I got stuck at this level, without understanding if taking the "K" would do something or if it's just a collectible.
Bravo! Fun game man, I love games with such "computer handled" mechanisms. One annoying thing is when moving with the arrow it moves the browser window as well. Also the commands to dig, plant etc. are keys that are far from each others I had to look at my keyboard half of the time.
Fun concept and I love the graphics! Great job ๐
I bit confusing at first but the game is fun when you get it. ๐ Great job. Keep it up
Hey congratz really good looking game. I love the mood it has and the distortion effect you added on the corners of the screen. The music really works well with the game too! I think I saw a bug when you shoot too fat the 2 bullet isn't sent you have to really wait between 2 shoots. (I tested the 2nd version)
Nice game, the right balance of difficulty :)
Hey, congratz, the game is really fun. And I love the game feel around the game with the picture taken etc. But the gameplay itself I find it a bit frustrating I had a really hard time changing direction as soon as I had too much speed. I think its because the arrows actually are linked to the rotation speed between the wheel and the bar. I would have made this a "free rotation axis" and only balance with a small force on the top of the bar. I don't know if it makes sense. Anyway great job ๐
Very cool art. Very nice music. The gameplay is simple but you managed to create tension with it great job.
2 small things you can improve after the Jam: * When choosing a card at the very last second I ended up not being able to choose the next card (I think I choose AND got the "you fail to choose go to next cards" effect) * Nit-picking but on the web version you could reduce the "fullscreen" when the player click "Quit"
Very well done one of of the Top game of this Jam. Definitely scores in the Art category.
Nice work :thumbsup: I like the art-style and the sound effects. I think you should add a 2 players mode on the same keyboard. It would not be that much work and it would be pretty fun I think :smile:
Oh and if you manage to address the crackling sound effect on the web export of Godot I'm interested. For the moment ,for my game, the only workaround I found is reducing the Audio>Mix Rate before building for web. Or running advising to run the game on Firefox where it's a bit better. ๐
@devnugget I've been told to upgrade the version of Godot, I'll give it a try and let you know :)
So did I, working much better with Godot 3.3.4. I'll check the local multiplayer when I have someone to play with ๐
Nice game man. I love the juice you put in it. I would definitely have a look at the post jam version ๐
What the hell did I just play ๐
@blk-dg Agree, that was my intention but shader + pixel + 48h That was too much for me :D
@Pixelydian Good catch for Journey to Siliu that's the inspiration :D Thanks for the feedback I'll probably use all that at the end of the jam to push a new version !
Great game, it took me a bit to understand what I was doing wrong at first but when I got it, it was a pretty fun idle game. I can see this being a great "Airport tycoon" with more polish. :D
Capture.PNG
Very cool game, I love the minimalist style and the music is amazing! Congratz on achieving all that in such short time!
Favorite compo entry so far, well done !
Cool game! I like the minimalist graphism I bit frustrating to be stuck with the red color for several cycle when you can't progress tho :D
Great Job, I love the graphism with the minimalist color palette, it gives a nice mood to the game! The game feel is smooth and you really feel the heat when the train goes by with the screenshake and all, well done. Although was a bit frustrated not to have a win screen after I worked for my 1000 points ๐ Another comment: It felt like the "shout" bonus better use was to spam it which makes it not that funny to use.
Good job, I didn't manage to have positive score but it was fun :D
Fun to see that we made kinda similar games. Great job I love the mecanisms, and the variety of cards is impressive for 72 hour !
Great work, the quality of the game is amazing for just 72h. Multiplayer would be a great addition !
Man you are really good to give this factorio-addictive-twist to games. I spend way too much time playing this than I originally planned to. And the finish didn't disappoint either! Best entry so far for me congratulation
Only thing that could make the game better is the ability to remove stuff to rearrange the base (roads at least, walls if that's not too complicated) Edit: Oh yeah and friendly animals shouldn't stop bullets I feel, _even walls if you want to let us play tower defense :smirk:_
Cool concept and very nice music. At first I didn't understand that house and forest should be placed in a certain order for it to work even with the tutorial. Great job.
Cool game and cute graphisms (I love pixelart) congratz :)
Cool game, simple but addictive gameplay. I lov ethe art as well congratz :)
@fizzbark Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback! That's not explicit indeed, to upgrade a lvl 2 vegetable to lvl 3 you need to combine it with antoher lvl 2 vegetable etc.. (This makes the gestion of the space in your inventory important)
@kikiriki367 Thanks for the feedback I think you're right about the order, that bothered me at first as well, I'll change that for the post jam version. Super Auto Pets and Slay the spire were the two inspiration here indeed :D. My goal was to do a single player "Super Auto Pets" where you could really "break the game" (binding of isaac like) I'll pbbly try to push the game further in this direction after the jam.
@no-whone @bloodycoin Thanks a lot for taking the time the right this complete feedback, I've taken note and will take all that into account for a next version that'll push after the JAM!
@no-whone Thanks for sharing your build I didn't think the mushroom build would be powerful enough to kill the boss :D
@bloodycoin Sorry for the "unexpected crash" that's the first time I try using C# async this heavily in a Godot game and it comes with some serious drawbacks in term on error visiblity... I wanted to implement "objects" as you suggested that would bring modifications on vegetables but at that point my code was so crappy due to the last minute time rush that it just seemed impossible without a good amount of refactoring ^^ And yes I realize that there is absolutely no bag on the screen so that's just weird
@martta @lintfordpickle @daryaardo @fizzbark @yahel-dooley @donniedarko @kikiriki367 @mika314 @tweekstudios @iak @yamaisiukdranko @xparker @no-whone @bloodycoin
I took a few evenings to improve the game based on all your feedback!
The game is still quite short but it feels much better I think ๐
If you have time to give it a second look and tell me what you think I've uploaded it to itch.io **https://dekajoo.itch.io/the-onion-quest**
๐

Very nice! The art is great and the gameplay is fun :)
Wow love the art andfeeling of the game also it's so polish congratulation ! I got some goofy-heartstone vibes :D
Cool game, I love thee pixel art and the effects. I felt like I could reach sufficient damage pretty quickly tho' and then the only issue was to absorbe the corps with the enemies around. I also felt like the healing (both on hit and on absorption) didn't work but maybe they were just really low. Anyway this was fun to play congratulation :) game.PNG
Nice concept I love the style of the art as well good job :)
Great job, very impressive to have this quality for a JAM submission, the game is quite complete with a menu and a cool music + sound. I just wish I could stay press to fire with all the guns. Appart from that I love the feeling of the game! Congratulation :)
Good game congratz :)
The music it really nice and the attack of the player is quite unique. I felt the controls for the character were pretty slow at first but that's because of the bonuses you can have
Very nice game, congratz :)
I was stuck at day 6 with the first puzzle game, I couldn't figure out how to park 3 cars in such a small space
('-_-
I love the low poly art style and the fact that you have to switch between the character and car controls. I feel adding time pressure if it's well balanced would make it even more fun because you would have to choose between a risky drive or loosing some time.
That a nice way to use AI in dialogs, limiting the words to use was a great idea. Appart from that the art is really good and the general mood works pretty well, kudos :)
This is really nice, concept is original and fit the theme perfectly, the mood is really immersive as well. The combat were just challenging enough and well through with the dash mechanic. A great entry congratz :)
It's clever how to have level just to explain a new mechanic that you are going to add on next levels. I love the 8x8 pixel art style it works well with this turn based puzzle game.
Very nice game :)
Capture.PNG
Very chill I love the art with the tiny effect, it give a great feeling to the game. Congratulation for the game :)
Very funny idea, quite messed up ^^ I love the style of the character and the in between sceens, kudos.
Very cute and chill game. Love the art and music !
Great game! Really fun to play and the subtle twist to the genre works very well, I was surprised there was that much mob to fight but I wanted even more!! Congratz on this great entry.
Cute game, I like how the honey is aggregating together I'm sure there is something to do around this. congrats for making the game so fast ๐ฎ
Nice entry, simple yet fun. I think having just few sounds when eating something or getting eaten would have improved it. I really liked the minimal art as well. Congratz for your entry :)
Fantastic game! I absolutely love the art, especially the charming little cut-scenes! The level of polish is incredible, especially for a JAM game.
I might have missed something with the duck section, though. I saved 9 but ended up reuniting 0โdid I overlook something?
Also I would have loved more mechanics around the ducks like "you need X ducks to go through this block"
Trรจs sympa, j'aime bien l'idรฉe du jeu vertical assez chill, les graphismes sont super kiki et la musique est tout simplement banger ๐
Great game! I almost finished it but I got stuck at the LAST UPGRADE... I stuck my guys at the bottom of the huge pit I did and I didn't have anymore sand to build ladder nor anyway to dig my way up ๐ฟ
I loved the idea that you had the mining game, the colony building game and the "doing the war to the sea" game
I saw 2 bugs / weird things, * 1 I couldn't build sandblock below the sea (and I needed to build floor for my base) * 2 I kept placing blocks when clicking upgrades
Anyway great submission I never tried to build a colony builder game like that but it seems quite code intensive, very impressive for a 48 h game ๐
Capture dโรฉcran (101).png
Fun game! The controls made it a bit frustrating to finish the level in the advanced ones but I really loved the music and the hand drawn art. Great entry well done :)
Nice game! I liked the layout the map and the idea that you need to fetch new weapons on the map as you fight. At some point I had an issue with slugs getting stuck on the map.
Oh and I loved to hate the ballistic slug missiles :D
@woona Thanks a lot for playing and for the feedback ๐ Indeed I should do controller mapping I'll try to push a post jam version ๐
About the "too zoomed hard to react" thing, you played full screen right ? Can I ask your monitor resolution ?
*PS: What if I told you there are 9 coins* ๐
**EDIT**: I did unzoom it ^by 25% and added **controller support** ๐ฎ๐ in the post-jam version ๐
@docgeraud Thanks it means a lot from you, keep it up ! ๐
@rascarcapackdev @skyystorm @james-poole @sharky3188 Thanks a lot for playing an for the feedback, I tried to take it into account in a post jam version ๐
@firellon @kutase @ltostes Thanks you all for giving it a shot :)
@kutase May I ask where it got stuck while it's still fresh in your memory ?
Thanks @kumber :) You have to unlock the ability to hold coins in your hand.
@mal Wow that's fast for a first run well played and thanks a lot! :D
@pickens-inc Thanks for your detail feedback, it means a lot!
Triggering this "why is there more coins behind ?" though is what I wanted, so I'm glad you saw it (even if the game has some rough edges especially linked to the physics of the game)
I tried lovecraft (in english) and it didn't click but you motivated me to try again in my native language with "The Outsider"!
@kumber Yes good catch ! And congrats for the new world record hihi.
Quite a cute and fun game! It gave me a vibe of pokemon safari park, the music is chill and there are a LOT of features for a JAM game :o Congratz on your entry!
Funny little Game with quite more content than I expected ! Congratulation
Fun little idle game, I love the art style with these cute blobby cats. :smile:
Although I found either the pace too slow or the fact that you can loose an issue. It cannot really be "idle" or you risk of loosing and there are times where you have to wait a lot before being able to unlock something. So moving it one way or the other would improve the game I think !
Fun game, I loved the "Hello!!!" and "Booboobam" sound the cute creatures make when you summon them ๐ Bravo!
The mood of the game with its music, sound design and color is amazing. Very refreshing and fun to discover the systems by myself. As other person stated, this made me think of rainworld in that sense. Challenging yet doable in less than 15min and it's not even that frustrating to have impossible levels IMO since they are quite rare you don't feel cheated most of the time. Amazing entry congratulation. :D
(PS: the wording for loosing has the day wrong I think ?)
Capture.PNG
Love the aesthetics, the music plays well with the rest. The sound for success made me jump from a chair the first time tho' ^^ I think the idea of choosing different creature based on the next fight is good idea for a game. Congratz on your entry!
Very cute game, the voice acting is ๐ Et les dessins sont magnifiques, Bravo ร l'รฉquipe :)
Nice game. I really like the procedural walk of the little creatures, it works well with the pixel art! Inspiring :) The delivery is smooth and the idea original!
