Haha, that was fun! Nice job guys, great sprites too!
Love the mood! the audio added a lot. Took me some time to realize I can slide open the door XD
Great use of the lighting system (I'm assuming you used the new 2D lighting). Overall, great game jam! :)
The drawings are amazing! It took me a few times to understand how to play, and how I get points. But overall it's nice!
Waw! Great game for a game jam! Love the graphics and sounds!
It was a nice twist at the end :) Great graphics and mechanics!
Nice game with great graphics :) Stupid chicken kept eating all my seeds XD
At some point I found myself running around planting seeds everywhere. Still was fun! :)
Really nice concept, simple and fun :)
Nice game jam! When it said the weeds are coming, I thought they will be growing on the plant itself. I took the fork, saw nothing is happening, took the water can back and then saw them coming to attack my flower. Panicked and ran after the fork to kill those bastards XD
At some point though, I lost the flower. I picked it up, tried to put it back down. Instead, I put down the fork, and couldn't put down the flower again. Maybe I was doing something wrong?
also, I felt like the character speed was too slow for the size of the map.
Took me a bout 2 levels to understand what's going on :) I thought I was supposed to fix the link or something. Over all, nice concept, unique. It was intense XD
My only issue was the sound, it was too loud, had to alt+tab and change decrease the volume to about 10% of the original. After that, the ticking really added to the intensity.
Great job!
@julienlussiez I'm not sure which version. Yeah, a sound controller is something many jammers forget about unfortunately
took me some time to realize I can bring more than 1 of a thing haha. Couldn't keep up with the enemies and the health. Nice game for a jam! :)
Waw! Nice gamejam! the graphics are nice, sounds are good. Gameplay was fun :)
I had the same idea for my game, but you did it way better and much more fun :sweat_smile:
Loved the shooting sounds haha! Great game for a jam!
Waw, really nice game! The dragon is so cute :)
pretty cool, but really hard XD
The mood was nice. I really liked the idea of the masks. And the particles added a lot! Great job for a game jam!
Link doesn't work =/ @ me when you fix it, I'd like to play
@yiyongc @lurkerrip @tony-artz @eli-delventhal Thank you for the comments guys!
Unfortunately I didn't have time to create a fine tutorial, I hoped the texts in the main menu will help, but I guess not.
Tip for next time (both for you and me): Let someone play test the game sometime on the last day of a jam. I thought the a player will be able to figure out the controls, but that's probably because I was the developer and it wasn't as intuitive as I thought.
Edit: I changed the controls, now E and R can be used to use the tools (don't know why I didn't do that in the first place)
@jarithius Thank you very much :) yeah, everyone complain about the ambiguity of the game. Should have someone test the game before time ran out. It's a lesson for next time! :)
@reheated a sound when you chop a tree, that's so simple yet I didn't think of that :sweat_smile: That would have helped to clear up what's going on! Thanks for the idea, will try to remember for next time :) There was no way of winning. It's one of those games that go on as long as you survive. Edge of the map - yeah I forgot to extend the map and didn't have time really to work on it :( Seeing in the dark is not something you should have been able to do haha. Thanks for the review! :)
@sztrovacsek thakn you very much! :) Yeah tutorial was lacking. I will remember for next time :)
@likai thank you :) Yeah, everyone says that about the control. Should have been clearer with that. I'm glad you liked it after understanding the controls! Thank you! :)
@xart2012 didn't like the feeling of it
really nice and interesting game :) love the sound effects XD
Really nice sprites! and the music is so calming and matching the theme! Great job :)
Took me some time to understand the controls and what's going on. But it was fun! :)
"Stupid fish kept swimming away from the food I gave it!" _finds full screen button_ "ooooh" _reads help_ "aaah, I sea" (not sorry for the pun :smile:)
It got hard with so many fish around, and new popping everywhere. Nice game jam, it was fun :smiley:
As the comment above, I had a similar idea haha. Pyromaniacs think alike :) The fire sprite is really nice, and the background in the main menu is really cool! try next time to create a menu in the game scene, like a pause menu or something. Great job for a first game!
I found myself forgetting what beats what :sweat_smile: Maybe having the rules on the side of the screen would be nice :)
Love the sprites :) nice idea of having to throw the pot to shoot the enemy. Great first game jam!
I agree with the other comments. Great game! It's amazing that you did that for a jam. The sounds were nice and matched the theme. A bit complicated to be honest.
It looked good on the cover pic, fix the link :)
That's crazy! Amazing game guys! great graphics and animations, good sounds and music, good gameplay. Amazing job guys!
Nice jam :)
Waw, great game and mechanics. Really beautiful, and cool sounds!
Nice jam, interesting mechanics.
Great compo, very trippy, love it XD Nice work!
Interesting mechanics. Very funny to bounce around XD Great jam!
Nice compo! Great audios and sounds. Interesting mechanics - can't move much without the thrust - took a bit to get used to it.
Cute game! The art is very nice, and the voice acting is great :smile:
Nice jam. A bit more visuals would be nice though.
Great jam guys. Love the art, animation and the sounds. Good job! I did play the post jam though.
Interesting concept. It takes a while to get the hang of it. Good job, nice jam! :)
Great compo! The graphics are astonishing, nicely done! It's hard, won't lie, couldn't make it all the way to the end.
Haha great XD love the sounds, animations and the humor. Nice jam :)
The visuals and graphics are nice! Feels a bit slow. Great jam though, good job!
It looked so cute. Please fix the link!
Amazing jam! Great graphics and sounds. Loved the mechanics. The way they light the room is beautiful.
One thing, there were places were it was hard to read the purple text.
Very cute game. Nice challenges. Love the story with the hamster pictures :)
Great art and audio. Cute and short story.
Not sure what happened, but after putting the minerals in the drill. It kept saying that it's time to turn it up. I alt+tabbed, came back to the game, and the end dialog wasn't visible. It would show for half a second and disappear. And then the Robot turned on, followed with the end popup =/
Great mood. Love the graphics and sounds :) nice jam!
Nice jam! Very cute graphics and animations, and music is great!
Really nice jam. The mechanics are interesting. Sounds are great. It just through me in, at first I thought it will move by itself and I only will have to shoot. Found myself just spamming and shooting XD Even made sure I can't hit myself, because I realized the shots bounce of the walls (which is a great touch, love it!).
Didn't really understand where I'm going and why though.
Nice jam! love the art style, the music and sounds complement very well. Great job!
Amazing quotes, 5/5 for humor :laughing:
Waw, what a nice jam. Interesting mechanics, didn't expect going on the Z axis as well.
Loved the mechanics. Nice jam! That fulfilling moment when you finally realize how to get the star XD
Nice jam, the art was cute. Sounds definitely missing.
Really cute compo, great job! Cheesy puns, I see XD
Very cute game, I think sounds was missing (or maybe it didn't work for me?).
Nice jam, great work guys!
Nice jam! The art style is good. Missing some audio. Good job on the story :)
Nice concept, great jam. Audio would add a lot. Also a reminder of what where would be a good idea. Nice work!
Nice compo! My best is 32 seconds :) Interesting gameplay.
Had a bug where one of the emotions flew out. It happened only once though. Capture.PNG
Nice graphics, great jam!
Very cute jam, great job guys. Koved the art and music as well :)
Interesting idea. Long search, died when decided to risk it XD
It's a nice touch, that everything is constantly moving.
Nice mechanics. The audio adds a lot to the game. Great jam :)
Great jam, cute graphics, nice mechanics!
Nice jam, a bit hard though.
Nice jam, great graphics and sounds :)
Nice jam!
(CTRL for jump is a bad design. Every time I wanted to jump and move right using D, Chrome asked me if I want to bookmark the tab)
Nice compo entry! The graphics are very nice. The music gets a bit annoying after a while. The controls are weird, need to get used to them. The mood is great, nice story.
It was more fun than expected! Great jam, love the graphics. Interesting mechanics.
Love the art, very cute :) My favorite part: "oh, that's a pearl! I probably need to collect it." Nope, it's a huge fish-moster that kills you XD
Really cute game! The visuals are cute, and sounds adds a lot. Great job!
The mood is amazing, nice jam!
Great game jam! the mood is great, the graphics are awesome. Mechanics are good, love the stress ball and getting the investigator mad XD
Cool jam! Loved the graphics and audio. Beautiful background!
Nice work guys. Great jam. Music is nice, as well as the visuals. Nice effect when dying. Would be nice to have different animations (sprites) for different digging (Down and up).
Hahaha really fun game! smacking the penguin and hoping for a fast recovery XD
Nice jam guys. Great work on the graphics!
A few things: The rooms were very dark. And as mentioned above, the sword Capture.PNG
Great jam! The art is very nice, and the sounds add a lot. Good job!
Nice compo game! I think I was very lucky with the treasures, I got 2 in a row almost in the same place, and then a third one not far from it XD
The music was a bit annoying, it had this broken (static maybe) sound. The main melody was nice, and the sound effects did add to the game.
Great jam! The controls are smooth. Graphics and audio are nice. I love that the scraps follow the player for a bit, it's a nice touch :)
Great jam! The art is fantastic. The voice acting and sounds are great! Really nice jam!
Great jam. Nice mechanics. The control choice is weird, why X and Z?
nice visuals. Got betrayed by trying to get that coffee cup XD
Very cute jam. Nice mechanics, took some time to get used to them (especially with the bombs, I killed so many of them XD). Art and sounds are good. Nice job!
Fun game! it's really nice, would be a cute mobile game as well!
Nice compo game. Cute mechanics. As others said, it felt slow. It took me me sometime to use the ladder to dig down instead of using the _dig_ to go down. I think a bit of sounds would add a lot. Overall nice work!
Nice jam! Interesting mechanics, It took me a few times to understand how they work though. And the audio is good. Great job! :)
Really cool game. Nice jam! The graphics and sound are good.
I love the voice acting!!! XD Great jam! The visuals are very nice!
(I couldn't place a wind turbine in the closest right corners =/ )
Nice jam! Cute art!
Waw, nice puzzles! The mechanics are cool! Nice graphs and music as well :)
Cute clicker game! Like the pixel art and music. Great jam guys!
Very touching story. Nice art. Great jam overall!
(found a visual bug, when typing, the N didn't fade away when I typed 'STOP')
Nice compo! The graphics are very interesting. Good job!
Really nice jam! Nice art, and audios. Voice acting was great as well.
Had an issue with the mouse. You should've locked the mouse in the middle of the screen. My cursor kept sliding to the second monitor.
Great compo! Interesting idea, love the ragdoll and the pings :)
Hahaha great and funny game. Loved the art, the music and the mood. Soooooo many cats
Nice art! great sound! Good jam! :)
Nice work guys! The game is challenging and fun. Great work on the graphics and audio!
First of all, the art and music, is AMAZING! Well done! I like that you don't use any text to tell the story. It's well visualized, nice job on that. Great jam guys!
Great jam! Loved the humor in the beginning :) Nice mechanics, cool fish eye effect. It was a bit unusual in at first, but it's not bad after you get used to it.
Good mood and art. I was stuck on the found photograph, not sure what I missed.
Cute jam guys, great art, very suiting music. Good job!
Cute game. The graphics and audios are nice. The gliding mechanics is nice!

Great jam! The graphics and audio is very nice. For some reason I kept having hard time controlling the drill though XD
Great game. Cute mechanics, just the mouse control was a bit weird. The visuals are amazing, and the animations are nice.
nice jam! cute art :)
Spamming ctrl to dig fast, trying to shift the right coffin and jump out. Great jam XD It's nice and funny. The sounds and music add a lot. Great job! :)
Nice jam! Cute graphics and sounds.
Same happened to me as the comment above =/

Very nice jam! As everyone said, a tutorial would be very helpful. Overall amazing game, good job!
Fun game, throwing gandalf down the stairs and collect coins XD
Nice take on the theme. It took me a few times to realize that I don't necessarily have to time my jumps in the beginning (I died a few times). Nice jam!
Very cute game, love the art, the music. Amazing jam guys!!
Nice jam. Felt a bit slow though.
Nice work. The sounds is nice and adds to the game.

Wow, great rhythm game! loved the graphics and the sounds. Great jam!!
Cute jam! What amazed me that you used pure java for this, why?! XD
Nice jam! Interesting take on the theme :) Loved that the character got wider over time XD Nice music.
I like that when they bit off of me, it took them a few seconds until they started chasing me again. But it was a bit too easy to ran away from them.
Nice jam! The mood is great, loved the art and audios. That lighting added a lot to the mood, good job! Feedback on when I get hit was missing though.
Nice jam! reminds me of an old mobile game I used to play, I miss it now XD
The submarine is really cool. Should've made the collection of fuel automatic, and going up the ladder with jump or W. Overall nice idea and jam! Audio would definitely add.
Nice jam! For a first jam with only a few hours of work this is good! Indeed some sounds and music are missing.
Nice compo. Cute graphics and sounds. The control of the sub is something you need to get used to first.
Interesting idea. Great compo! really! The graphics are great, audio is good. And nice touch of humor. Good job!
Nice jam. A bit feedback from my actions would be nice. The music is relaxing and the graphics are nice. Challenges are great!
Nice compo! Interesting mechanics
Cool jam! Interesting mechanics, great visuals, good sound.
Nice jam! had hard time doing the jump walls in the beginning, but then I got the hang of it :)
Great sounds and mechanics. I see you used the Wilhelm scream XD
Didn't work for me. Couldn't press any of the options in the main menu :(
Great job for your first jam! You should be proud of yourself.
Nice jam! These bubble enemies are cute haha.
Waw, great work guys. Cool building system, great graphics. Not sure if audio is missing or just didn't work for me.
Nice jam! My highest score is 57.
Waw, what an original idea :smiley: great music and visuals. It's hard but fun!
Nice art work, and effects :)
(Got stuck in a cube I placed XD)
Nice jam! loved the mechanics of bouncing back up :)
Nice game guys. Nice graphics and audios. It took me a few tries to realize I need to avoid EVERYTHING. It also gets hard pretty quickly. The controls are fine, as expected, nicely done. It's funny to see a boat underground XD
Overall, good jam!
Great jam! The graphics style is very interesting. Great mood and atmosphere
Nice jam, great work guys. Nice visuals, animations and audio :)
Nice jam! I, also, now want pizza.. XD
Nice compo! Sounds would a lot, great job though!
Great jam! The graphics style is very interesting. Great mood and atmosphere. Nice story!
Waw, great game for a compo! Nice job. I'm not sure if you didn't make audio, or it didn't work for me. But it would definitely add a lot.
Great jam! Very cute idea. Good execution, the art and sounds are well done. Had very hard time getting to the cage controllers in the beginning.
Nice jam. The jumping feels a bit weird though.
The writing is really good! You added a lot of features that a usual jam wouldn't have, like saving/loading, blind color support. Great job!!
Nice art and music work! A bit hard but great jam!
Great jam! Love the puzzles. The graphics and sounds are well done. The ending though XD
Nice compo game. Cute graphics. Sound is missing though.
The mood and graphics are great. Really missing sounds! Took me a while to get used to the controllers. Still didn't understand how the fighting worked (Did I have to do anything?).
Great jam overall.
Nice stocks game. I wish real stocks were the same XD
Very cute style and sounds, they match perfectly. During the game though, it's a bit hard on the eyes, all the moving small white pixels. Other than that, great jam!
Great sound work. I love the art style, fits well. Great jam!
Great and fun game! Took me a few tries to understand how to use the attack to avoid blocks as well. The parallax effect in the background is awesome!!
Nice jam! Interesting that I couldn't dig up, only deeper and deeper XD nice graphics and audios!
I liked the monsters XD Didn't understand how to shoot, so ended up jumping above them.
Nice jam. Interesting mechanics. The background is nice, but a bit heavy on the eyes. Also some dots on the minimap are dark, and are barely seen. Nice graphics and audio!
It took me a while to understand the mechanics XD Nice art, great jam!
Hahahaha what? XD
Amazing, absolutely amazing jam. The graphics are beautiful, the sounds are great. 4.5/5. My only issue was the control was a bit weird.
This would be a great mobile game!
