Really enjoyed the mechanic!
Anyone planning on playing, feel free to skip this one.
Awh, yeah. Blue man group member finally lets his rage out with an axe haha
Another windows 7 professional 64-bit user that cannot play the game. I was paying attention to your updates and was looking forward to playing your game! Hope you can resolve the issue so we can better appreciate your efforts!
nom om om nom
funny, and enjoyed the intro. could use some patriotic music! lol
I enjoyed the game! Although, I found that 'Q' was what actually got me moving left, so that was kinda tough to get used to
Thanks for the responses @OccamsRazor, @Iekochen, @fluidvolt!
It is intentional to allow infinite jumping, it just uses your 'robot power' points that are used for jumping / shooting. So jumping can lead to prolonged survival, but no more of those sweet points!
Great entry! Beautiful, simple and creative.
Fun and challenging game, very nice!
Very "completed" feeling. Nice artwork and gameplay mechanics! Polished jam entry, good job!
Update embed code please :) looking forward to playing!
Update: Nice entry! The Spanish attackers kept flashing around on screen though.
Nice entry! The rotations can get a bit dizzying, but overall good game.
Excellent polish and scope for a competition game. Nice job!
Great idea, game and execution!
Very nice game! Intense and goes well with the music.
This is fantastic! I loved the game, and can't wait to check out the code.
Great game! I love the art, and music!
I had an idea roughly similar, except you would have been playing as a cat, but I didn't have the skills to get that concept together in the Ludum Dare timescale.
This was fun! The controls were a bit tough to use with a keyboard only, but I liked the power-up system. I used the invincibility each time and spammed attacks to win.
Very interesting game indeed! I like this kind of puzzle. Very creative!
Nice game! I hid out on the left platform and left a small window for the enemies to try to get me and lasted a while.
Interesting game. As mentioned above, the title screen stays there the whole time. Otherwise, good job!
Nice! I really like the graphics, and this was fun to play. As others mentioned, there is something not quite working with reloading when you spam the button really fast. Good job!
The graphics were great! I had a hard time controlling the ship, though. Good work!
Good job! I loved the sound effects, and the little mini games that change over time are fun.
Nice submission! I wish there were some people on the screen at the beginning to eat/hide around once the game starts.
What a stunning game to play and look at! I enjoyed this game very much, and am impressed with your work.
Nice game! I was able to get pretty far up the tower, but there was some issues with mouse sensitivity, which made some of the last platforms really challenging.
What has a head and tail, but no legs? - a penny
It was fun roleplaying around as a penny. Nice game!
Nice game! I like the upgrade system. The art and animations are spot-on!
I was able to get the game running, and play! It took me a little bit to figure out how to score against the first guy, but once I got my strategy down, it was fast paced and fun. Good job!
Nice game! I explanations are clear for the various mechanics, and I like the inspiration from nature. Good work!
Congrats on your first submission! That was fun to play.
Excellent game! I had a good laugh when I would crash into my previously crashing plane bits.
Fun game with nice graphics and fits the theme very well.
Great game! I agree that it could always use more minigames, but the speed-ups seemed to make up for it. Very polished, and I like the overall style.
I love the music in this game! Also the graphics and gameplay loop are spot-on, and very impressive for compo.
Great graphics and card game! I ended up playing this for quite a few rounds.
Nice game! I almost made it to the second delivery but kept getting killed by other ships
Fun game with excellent graphics! Very polished game for compo.
Fun little game! I also really enjoy the song that comes together with all the plants combined. Well done!
Very funny and fun little game! The game window is just so tiny though.
Fun and polished game!
33.83! Fun game, and I really liked the meta snail effect.
Very polished and fun game, perfectly suited for LD!
This game has great graphics that perfectly fit the mood. The music is also a good fit. Nice job!
This is a very fun and creative game! I enjoyed playing and I think this is a great idea.
@beavergames I had the same problem with my game. Let's just call it a feature that adds to the mood, right?
I enjoyed playing your game! I think the tiles and background look great as well.
@voidsay @lichead-studio I checked on windows and it does not work. Says UnityPlayer.dll was not found. I think you need to rebuild and upload again.
Well executed puzzle game!
Fun platformer, made it almost to the end of level 2. Agree with @indiequest that the jump time could use a little improvement, but overall good job!
Very cool game! I love the menu/intro graphics. The gameplay is pretty neat as well, works pretty smoothly.
Nice game! I like the art and especially the player character's animations. I found rolling with space bar to be much easier than using the mouse for that move.
Cool game! I like the overall style, and the bhopping is a classic move.
@publicidadeba thanks! so when you collect souls you gain player xp, which when you level up will increase your damage and "soul" damage over time. When you kill mobs it increases enemy xp (enemy anger) which when that levels up it increases their health and spawn rates over time.
@fromage wow grats! Thanks for playing. Any suggestions for more options? I'm going to keep working on this over the next few weeks.
@animatrix1490 glad you liked it! Yeah all the sounds were from an analog synth, except for the drums. Also, yeah the idea is to try to avoid getting hit as much as possible with the dash and using the gravestones to block. Very low cooldown on getting hit.
@jeremy-scott-olsen yeah, everything stops for a brief moment when you hit it. The score is only obtained from harvesting souls (by holding left-shift until the blue bar goes all the way down on certain enemy types) - the soul count is displayed at the top of the screen.
@fromage thanks for the input! We were thinking of something similar to Vampire Survivors where you can choose from one of X number of things each level up. Makes the leaderboard thing a bit more difficult if you add RNG like that I feel, though.
The soul sucking actually does increase speed when you level up, just not by too much. Since you were playing on hard, you probably didn't get to notice it as much, as the enemies "soul health" was also increasing since you basically have to kill the bats and spiders to survive.
@bartalomew thanks for the compliment! yeah they do kinda blend in to the background a bit, needs some overall color updates / sprite definition
@enad96 thanks :sunglasses:
@papaya thanks! yeah wanted to add a few more soul only, and health only types or a boss to mix it up, but ran out of time
@tomtomgome thanks, glad you enjoyed playing!
@chanjohann thanks! yeah the sounds effects were all made on one synth and the melody on one other in like 1hr - have a whole page of notes on ideas for different sound effects and voices that didn't make it in
@nikolaj haha yes these are souls of the cursed, so zombified but still pure enough to harvest for some points
Fun game! I like all the descriptions on what you dig up.
Nice game! I really like the combos and graphics. Some of the platforms are a bit hard to reach though.
I think the art and writing are great. I like the take on the theme as well, very nice.
Wow! Very impressive! I had a bunch of fun playing this. Probably my favorite jam entry I've played across all LDs!
Funny and cute game, well done!
Wow this was very cool. I was able to make a thriving population! I think the balance was pretty good overall. I wish you could move the camera around, since the land was getting quite large and I could only place new tiles on the left side after placing something somewhere else to move the camera back that way temporarily. I like the music as well, very relaxing.
I liked the game, the graphics were very smooth. I could not get the web player to work, but the windows build was working.
The art and animations were great! I had a bit of trouble with the attacking and tower placement, but otherwise very fun.
Fun game! Very clear system that requires clever planning with a little RNG.
Very nice! I loved the PSX graphics as well. Also the pause/inventory menu was nice even though I didn't really need it, it looked good. Also the dancing animation at the end was dope.
Funny game, dig the music and planet graphics. Felt like a drunken aussie with these controls lol.
Wow! What a great atmosphere and experience. I got the nostalgia hit from the wonderful graphics and animations, and enjoyed the festival :)
That was a lot of fun! Well done.
The art and animations are great! The overall view is a bit small, so hard to keep moving at a steady pace.
Wow great game! Am super curious about how this was put together.
@offdutyextractors thanks for the details! That's really cool. I wonder if something like this could be used to create a training tool, maybe to teach people about being "safe" online? Either way, had a lot of fun.
I like the art in game a lot! The menu text is a bit hard to read, but the gameplay was fun.
Nice puzzle game! Was able to get to lvl 18. Fun puzzles and mechanics.
Interesting game, I liked the platforming, but the controls were a bit difficult.
Loved the graphics! The mood fit the ideas from the movie quite well.
The effects were very cool, pretty trippy with the motion aspect to them. Very nice!
The controls didnt seem to work very well on the webplayer embedded in LD page - cant use mouse or look around? otherwise cool idea!
Great artwork! Loved the humor
Nice little racing game! The corn harvest and regrow effect works very well. Can't wait to see the mode with more vehicles on the track.
Nice, I like the movement and the artwork. Similar map and game to my entry!
Nice game! I really like the character models and animations.
Pretty cool game! sorry I feel like I can't give a proper review though since I'm pretty colorblind and was not able to make it very far, but I really like the concept and execution of the idea. Will give ratings in categories I can judge :)
Nice entry! I like the animations for the enemies.
Nice, simple game!
Nice game, I like the art and map design.
Very fun! Love the overall look and feel. Agree with others that the starting weapon should do a bit more damage. Well done!
Nice entry! I liked the game, but the little "kernels" kept getting stuck in places that I couldn't reach.
Interesting game! I could not figure out how to beat it, but made it across some sweet jumps. The first time I opened it (on windows) the sounds did not load, so I tried again and it worked. I liked the instructor, helped add to the mood. I wish it would lock the camera when moving, use mouse to look around when you want to (on a different key maybe). I also liked the graphics!
Overall nice entry :thumbsup:
Thanks for the feedback everyone!
@kamtar @piscythe haha yes definitely could use a health bar!
@juju we used Phaser JS (http://phaser.io)
Fun game! The sounds for clicking on the cats were a little over-bearing, but overall fun entry!
Fantastic graphics and good music/sound effects! Great entry :thumbsup:
Nice idea! Makes for an interesting challenge :thumbsup:
Haha this was a very fun rage game! Great concept, and very challenging.
Very well done entry! Graphics, music and sound effects were on point. :thumbsup:
Would love some additional keybindings for PC.
Good idea! It was very hard to control my hat on a cloud, but overall fun game.
Very unique game! I really enjoyed the experience. I was able to match up a few of the puzzles after a while.
Great job :thumbsup:
Great game! I agree with @Jacoder23 as a fellow color-blind person, those two were impossible to distinguish.
Really fun submission! Enjoyed knocking the ball around and blasting opposing team members :thumbsup:
I agree with @Lyje that having some kind of goal detection, or maybe resetting the ball after a score would improve gameplay.
Fun game! I would have preferred for the mouse movement to turn the player, and click to attack, but it was still an enjoyable entry :thumbsup:
Fun little shooting game! Animations were great, and the gun mechanics worked smoothly.
What a fun game! Well done all around. Loved the sounds and graphics :thumbsup:
