> All aesthetic and levels are created procedurally
Really ?! I applause the performance, it's very impressive :clap:.
You're right, the gameplay is simple to understand but very hard to master, and that's make your game amazing !
Sentences is good idea, but they should not appear all the time, only when an event occur (as player reward) or between levels (like a loading screen).
Overall, it's incredible work for only one person ! :clap:
I've loved to smash all the tinys birds. Fun to play !
Nice idea, the retro game style is perfect ! The difficulty increase well. You should add character animations when player success or fail to protect baloon in order to make the game more epic.
Good job.
The art style is very nice, the illustrations are beautiful and contribute to build an intense atmosphere. I like the music also. The only drawback is the font, it's nice but not really readable and there is lot of stuff to read.
I'm confused about the meters and how events influence them, a tutorial should help the player to better understant the mechanics.
I enjoyed play it, good work !
Great concept ! It remember me the game "moon type".
The way to start the game (typing "play") is very clever, and it help the player to get what it have to do. Make the words rotating increase the difficulty, so it's cool. The dictionnary fit well the theme.
You should add GUI to show the current score and also make word destructions more juicy, it will help the player to feel like a very powerful hacker.
Btw, the robots dialogs make me laught.
Good job.
I really enjoyed to play this game.
I imagine playing this game in VR mode. Maybe with asymetric gameplay like "Keep talking and nobody explode". One player control the ambulance with VR headset and another player is a copilot and have a map to give driving instructions.
Add a timer can make the game more fun.
Good job.
It's very cute and chill, perfect after a game jam. Music is cool but the loop is too short
This game is completely maaaaad, I want to destroy everything ! And I like it :D
Very original idea.
The tower defense system works well, it just missing a win/spend money system to equilibrate the game. Also add effects to make fire shot more juicy and more difference between towers.
Nice job.
Cool idea, you should continue to dev the game. Also the UI is nice.
There missing clues to explain to the player what to do. With a tutorial the game will be more understable.
Nice job.
Ambitious idea, this is very fun.
The tutorial is too long, an interactive tutorial or message on screen when playing will be better. It's too hard to find your way cause the map is big, you should add maker or map that will be updated when player explore. Add GUI to show wich machine is broken.
Good work.
Hahaha awesome job !
The introduction, the gameplay, the graphics art, everything is awesome (even the title). Maybe the music is too repetitive, anyway, I enjoyed playing your game !
Great job :clap:
WOOW! Awesome work, really good game, so polished, congratulations! Visual and sounds great :)
Very fun but too hard. A progressive difficulty should be better. The game become laggy on my computer after few games, maybe a memory leak issue ?
I like this cactus. Good job !
What an amazing game !
The introduction, the sound and dialog make the game very immersive. I also like the post process effect. The control with keyboard is little bit too tricky but whit the controller it works like a charm. Sometimes, the camera is misplaced and makes the game frustrating, maybe improve the placement or let the player control the camera ? I would realy like a couch coop mod !
Good job guys !
I like the idea to control the helicopter and give instruction (jump) to robot. Whatch two characters is little bit tricky but fun :thumbsup: With more sound design, and graphics (background and decorative elements), the game will be more intense.
Good work.
Very good entry, this nice art and nice particles effects. I also like the music.
I didn't realy get why the alien become red and die, so it's a bit frustrating. There is a hack, if you block the alien in corner you can get a high score in few seconds.
Overall, very good job.
Good idea to use cellphone battery as player life, I also like the twitter icon that charge the player :smile:.
The physics can be improve, the phone is too slow and sometimes it stuck on platforms. With better graphics and FX, you'll make a great game.
Nice job!
Your game looks so nice ! Controls work like a charm. Cute and fun. Good job !
This game is "hypnotic", the mood, visuals, animations, sounds, the few interactions and the fish behavior: all of this give an interesting feeling! I found myself waiting the fish during 1 minute without doing anything (that is very long for a game), I only thought about the fish at this moment. Well done!
Nice retro gaming style, with cool atmosphere. It was realy fun to play your game, the only drawback is soundtrack, a little bit annoying. The controls are perfect beceause there are smooth, in a good speed, so they make the game very pleasant to play.
Loved it !
Nice game! Art is very cool, good shot feelings but the is a little bit repetitive, some variations on pitch would be great. But I'm happy to be a dodo!
Impressive work, building a real time strategy during a jam is very hard, but you did it well :clap:
Visuals are very nice, I would like more animations for workers. There are lot of upgrades available for rooms, so it makes the game very addictive. Now you need more kind of enemies. One drawback : there is no restart button.
I like this game, amazing work !
> A really short game, but it’s got its charm.
Totaly agree with @sunnray . 2 minutes are enougth to like the alien and want to protect him. With more mechanics and complete levels, this game will be awesome.
The 3d modeling is clean, maybe you should add particles effect or post processing to get the player more in space atmosphere.
Also sound FX or voice on the alien should be very fun.
Overall, good job !
Very fun game !
The 3d is nice and create fun atmosphere. Zombie plants make me laugh. The difficulty should increase more quickly and zombie plant have to be more dificult kill. Adding more mechanics or items could be cool also.
Great job !
Hahaha the enemies suprise me, I was not expected to shoot guys but it make laugh.
The game play works well and it's very addictive. You should make the shooting phase more juicy by adding FX. And also, update the customer face to show which client is bored.
Overall, very fun game !
I realy like playing this king of game. Make it more epic like this old game and I will buy it ! https://megami.starcreator.com/nanaca-crash/
Very fun concept ! The art of the trees and flames are very nice. I also like the music.
The screen that explains the controls is too complicated, it confuse the player, but after all, the game is easy to learn.
I really enjoyed playing it. Good job !
Fun idea !
Nice retro gaming style. The music give a perfect party atmosphere.
It's difficult to know which tasks are more important to keep the party alive. I would appreciate indication like "Your guests are hungry" or "No one on the dancefloor". BTW, I love the dancefloor minigame.
Great job !
Very cool idea, I like the interpretation of the theme.
There is nice atmosphere, dialogs help player to get in the game. The gameplay is little bit tricky to understand, you should add more GUI and maybe a tutorial to help player understand what he have to do.
Good job.
Amazing ! I've loved playing your game, it make me laugh. The idea is really good and pixal art style is impressive. The only drawback is music too repetitive.
Nice work !
Nice work, the gameplay works well, the map is very useful.
With better graphics and fx you can make the game more juicy and create a great exploration atmosphere. Impressive works for one person.
Good job.
It's cute and the concept is interesting! good work :)
Nice game! Progression in story and the way that you appropriate the theme are interesting! More visual and sounds feedback would be great to see what happen sometimes but it's enough to play the game and understand story Also music are great and fit with different moods, great job :)
Nice game! I like the story and your universe with music which is very cool :) I would like some sounds for the immersion to illustrate the story or when you make a choice but it's a polished stuff, great job!
What a huge amount of work of one guy in 48 hours ! It was really fun to play. Could be a commercial game. The soundtrack is too repetitive but your game still awesome.
I enjoy this game, it remember me don't starve in winter :smile:.
The UI is clean and the atmosphere works weel. As @thomu, I didn't get the purpose to get wood and food, you should add a consumtion system with the wife. Also, I would enjoy a camera closer to the caracter and a game play little bit faster.
Really good job !
I liked to throw building to helicopters :smile:
The camera system can be improve, it's too complicated to aim helicopters. Add a aim cursor and all control the rotation of Parentzilla with the mouse (like a TPS).
Add different kinds of enemies, like tank for example. It could be fun if Parentzilla can jump over tanks.
Add variation to city and maybe make some special building can make more damage, ex : nuclear central.
If Kid Kaiju moves into the city, it will be more fun and it will allow the user to explore the city.
Very good game, keep continue to improve it :thumbsup:
Nice work! Music is very cool, I think I would like to have more feedback when I interact
This project is huuuge ! It's very hard to make a complete simulation game during 3 days. But it's really good start, with more work you can build an amazing game.
Keep going !
Nice graphics, I like the planet and the guardian.
You should add different kinds of enemies, and let the player collect different kinds of items, to improve shooter or abilities.
Good job.
Nice game, simple and very cute! I like the "nom nom nom" sound
Very nice game, I love the look and feel.
Particles effects work well. The character design is awesome. The audio creates a cool atmosphere, the only drawback is the jump sound, it not fit very well with the sound design. The death animation is incredible, but it's not really visible in game, so sad.
Very polish game, good job.
Very polished game ! Good jobs guys !
I like the music, the gameplay works well. Control (with xbox controller) are not very intuitive, it would be awesome if player can change it.
Overall, this game is master piece !
I liked explode zombies !
Add more challenge, different kind of weapons and enemies. The background music is cool.
Nice job !
It was weird experience but... I think I really like it! The mood party, these kind of strange faces who stare at you in this closed room with this twisted perspective... Wow. I have no regrets :) Just maybe the sound kind of repetitive, more variation would be better!
Corgi is so cute :smile: !
The gameplay works well, the background animation is nice. It would be cool to add animation on corgi, specialy when the player hit walls. And also modify the corgi at bottom right of the screen to illustrate the health (ex: tired corgi when the health is low).
I enjoyed the game !
Very nice concept with huge potential.
Nice graphics and sound, the UI is very clean, the game is polish. The main issue is the game is too complicated, it needs a tutorial phase and add game mechanic progressively in order to let the player understand all concept and mechanics.
Hope you'll get 20 ratings !
Overwall : good job !
The entire game make me laugh ! As @noahnewline the reporter becomes a little off-track, but the game still very fun ! I loved the graphics of humans, the animation of the reporter is cool. The large crowds screaming is so fun. The switch on/off of the camera is too slow. The feature to playback the recording is smart, you should add a feature to export as video or gif.
Great game !
I saved the turtle !!!!! I really had fun to play this game.
The graphics are awesome, that's make me choose to test this game. Great idea the introduction dialog between man and the turtle, it help us to understand what we have to do. The effects are nice, and make the game feel very polish. The music works well with game, but it's too loud compare to sound effect.
Awesome :thumbsup:
Game is very hard but the concept is very cool! Simple and fun and mostly I love the art :)
Hey @motley Thanks for your feedback, we're glad that you laughed playing the game!
Thanks so much for your comments, so happy you enjoyed the game! :)
@blackgoku36 Thanks!
@thomas-bringer @nurk @ryan123rudder @head-tilt-games @sid-fish-games @brylamare Thank you so much for all positive feedback!! Your comments make us smile :) @noirdrive @saucygames Yes you're right, gameplay can make you mad in a way but we're so happy that you enjoyed it! @dreamcastgh0st Wow! Thank you for your comment and your analysis! When we released the game we didn't think people enjoy the game like this! But you're right, need some game feel on "key pressing". So happy that you have fun playing it, that's basically why we want to create games :) @peachtreeoath Yes the game is very hard definitely! That's right it's our first LD but we really want to make something juicy, we're glad that you feel it playing the game! Thanks :)
@arzi Haha I don't know, maybe because it's going to die! Thanks for playing by the way :smile: Thank you @naamed, really happy that you enjoy this experience haha @stanleygray It's just one solution turn it into a game, there are more solutions for sure! Thank you for your feedback, we'll check this to correct that issue :) @mrowka Thanks! No problem, you're not the only one who has some trouble to understand the game, we don't gave enough clues to understand quickly! Not your fault :) @littlemiky Thank you so much !
@harry-alissavakis Thanks ! Happy that you enjoy our work.
Thanks everyone for playing and all your good comments! :)
Thank you guys ! We're happy to read ALL your feedbacks :smile:
Woow Thanks! We were not ready for all these good comments! @ttyana Yes that would be terrible for you haha @pke1029 The animation was the tricky part and we spent lot of time to have something juicy! It's a mix between ragdoll (character joints in unity) with tiny physics explosions and blend shapes to have some mesh deformations. The challenge was to have a good result blending 3D skeleton, mesh deformations and physics but finally... It works :smiley:
@jlv you're right we had a lot of fun making this game. Thank your for your feedbacks, we're thinking how to improve the game to make a post jam version.
Thank you all of you, we have spend a long time to make nice graphics coupled with sound, so we're very happy to know that you love it.
@mika-la-grand, @thekingbarry thank you for your constructive feedback. We hesitated during a long time to make instructions more clear, but we have chosen to encourage players to click on fish, making the action very juicy. And so, players discover the right action by their-self. But still, the game deserves lot of improvements to make it more clear. That's why we want to spend more time on the game development.
Thank you everyone, you're making this community awesome !
@wischi @a333 thank you for reporting the issue. We'll try to figure out.
@griet Thanks for feedback, it's helpful for us to know what we have to improve in priority! Sorry for this problems, the game is not clear at some points and we'll solve it soon. @noamraz Thanks for reporting we'll figure it out! Really, thank you for all these positive vibes everyone, that encourages us to improve "Save the Fish" and work on new games :smiley:
@evert Really happy that the fish and sounds effects make you laugh like this! But yes, you're right, we can add some variations on the "game over" sound, that would be less repetitive. It could be but in the rules, if there isn't the "fish says" before action, you must not do it, because... The fish didn't ask you, right? :smile: @valisse21 don't worry, not your fault, we have to make this game more clear to be sure that people notice all essential informations like this. If you enjoyed the game, that's the essential! Anyway thanks everyone for playing and feedback :)
Happy to know that the game make you laugh !
@joh Maybe there is a bug that we don't know, no code is perfect, specially game jam code :smile:
@bobost2 maybe because the fish has a weird face :smiley: !
@sndr glad you like play with the UI, we think about adding more interesting actions.
Thank you everyone to say that's polished game. Keep sharing your feelings, all yours feedback matters.
@qfrct @a333 Quit button issue is now resolved for the webGL version! @gustavo-christino Thanks for your feedback and your analysis! You're right, we just wanted to create a game for playing. Our choices don't have any sense for the narrative aspect because this game is only about "having fun" and "laughing". 30 seconds or 10 minutes where you just forget everything and you listen to this fish :smile: For the monetization part, we'll see, maybe a free mobile game or something else, we don't know, it's too soon for now to decide. It's hard for us to answer to all comments but, THANK YOU everyone for supporting us!
Sad to says, but I think lot of fish are died because of our game :cry:
@molpe thank you for sharing your video :thumbsup:
@james-kusardi it could be the game, cause sometimes Unity colliders have strange behaviour and fail to detect click. I can't tell for sure. Hope that doesn't spoil the game.
Thanks again guys for playing at our game !
@x01f0 Level 9 is good performance ! :thumbsup: :muscle: And yeah, the fish is a troller :wink:
Thank you everyone ! There are so many of you that try our game and comment, it's crazy !
@simon-rahnasto Thanks for your comment! You're right this is very hard memory game but we're happy that you enjoyed the game! But if you want to sleep now... You have to save more fishes :smile:
@unimaginable-code-studios Thank you! So nice to read that you like the stupid interaction with the fish, we spent lot of time to make it juicy and you feel it, that's the best compliment!
@g-a-gamestudio we haven't made the connection with "I am toast" game and our game before... That's true there are similarities between both, that's interesting. Thanks for your feedback, so happy that you laughed saving the fish :)
Well thanks everyone for all your good comments! So happy that you enjoy playing the game and you share it :smiley:
@geckoo1337 Thanks for feedback! (Ouais "le Jacques a dit" on connait très bien :smile: ) You're right, "Jacques a dit" bring this rule where you have to do it only if "Jacques" ask you, that's basically the same for the fish. Thanks for helping and supporting everyone, all your comment really encourage us!
@add-an-a thank you for your constructive feedback, you're right, the down time can be frustrating.
Thank you all for your feedbacks, it's very helpful !
This game was made with love, so we are really happy to know that you love this game ! :revolving_hearts:
Thank you guys !
Thank you guys for playing ! We glad to know that you enjoy it.
Thank you all for your comments :smile: We're really happy that you enjoyed the game and you laughed playing it. @danilo-freire thanks for reporting, we'll figure it out! @jmad really happy that you had fun! Okay thanks for reporting this, we'll check this for the next update. @flynn Thanks for playing :) Actually we are team of two brothers working on this game!
Cute game, very hard but it's a great job for a first game, well done! It's good base to make a good short game, some feedback to warn player when life is low or some "positive" sound/visuals effects to reward players when they make the right action would be great. Music is cool but some sounds in game would be better! Anyway, great job, keep going it's a good beginning :)
Art is lovely and the concept is simple and fun! But I'm sorry that was hard to be focus on the game with the music too high-pitched for me... But I think it's me don't worry, it's really good for a first game! Good job :)
Really funny even if my best score is only 14 :/ I really appreciate the "how to play". Missing some sound effects and the mouse cursor is too slow in my opinion.
Good job.
Nice little game, it's cute, I like the music and it's good to have some VFX when you take pollen
Snowball is dead, sorry.
Really fun game, the cat animation is very nice. I can't test the multiplayer mode but I applause the effort.
Good job.
I love the dinosaurs! It's very cute game and funny, I like the concept and the different changes when you pass a new age. Thanks for the meteor shadow that's helpful! To polish, maybe more sounds feedback when your stamina is low would be cool. Great job :)
Nice game! So satisfying to use physic to shot a rock with another one, love it! Just the sounds was kind of repetitive but it's enough to understand the concept and have fun playing this game
Yes I understand, sound design is very hard but you can start with trying to think about audio when you imagine your game, some ideas. Also random value on pitch or volume to make it less repetitive, not to much, just a little bit. And also add something in background, could be a sound discret like wind just to make a mood and fill the space :) But it's a really good work for game jam and it's hard to have everything in time, keep going!
Very cute game. The ideal is very original. I have got a texture issue, but I still enjoy the game. You should improve the GUI.
Good job.
Simple but clever idea, this game is surprisingly addictive.
Very nice grahipcs and sound. The main drawback is the game is missing a goal. There is an exit ? You should add indications to make the player know if he close to the exit.
Good job.
This game makes me laugh :laughing:. The idea is very fun. Make the game more juicy by adding effect. Create a better caracter with animations and the game will be perfect.
Good job :thumbsup:
Nice work.
This game has very good mood and is addictive. Nice graphics, missing fx when user do interaction (like add batery to the radio). The wheelbarrow is not realy maniable beacause the collision box is too big for the map.
Good job.
Good work, you should make it more juicy.
It's very impresssive !
The 3d is beautiful, the music create a perfect atmosphere. It's poetic but also hypnotic, you can't stop playing at this game until the end. The gameplay is simple but genious, it can be a commercial game. There just missing a button or menu to get back to last checkpoint, useful if you get stuck.
**Spoiler alert !** The end is too sad :cry:
Amazing !
I finished it ! So much fun, it remember me Monkey Island and Day of Tentacles !
The gameplay works well, even if is missing a dialog system and real usage of object, the game is fun to play, it's really a good start.
Well done !
Very good idea, the purchase system works very well.
I don't really understand why my slims dies, so add GUI or fx on slimes to indicate what slimes need (food...). Also that's not really clear what is the difference in a slime behaviour. Keep improve the game, polish it and it will be great.
Nice job.
Great atmosphere. 3D modeling is nice, and the fire fx is very cool.
With more content, and an increasing difficulty the game will be very fun. Maybe add more mechanics, ex : jump to avoid some obstacles ?
Good job.
It's a good job for a beginner. The base game play works, so you have to make the game more juicy.
Keep going !
The art is soooo cute! And the concept is very interesting :)
Nice game, I really like the feeling when you move, the jump, it's really satisfying! The music is also great and fit with the mood. The idea to use the main platform as health point is very good, and it works with the theme. My main regret is about the sounds feedback to give more impact on the attack or different actions but it works like this :) I enjoyed playing this game, well done!
This game have amazing graphics and the atmosphere is intense !
I could not kill the final boss, but anyway, I liked playing your game. This game is very polished ! The map is too repetitive so it's difficult to know where space has been explored. With more variation, the player will be able to recognize specific area and it will be easier to explore the map.
Overall amazing job !
Weird a experience, you have to try it :)
Nice game, concept is clear and sounds are helpful to understand :) Maybe more positive feedback when you succeed would be great to understand that you made the right action
I like the art of the cover, you should reuse it in the game.
The base gameplay works well, but the difficulty is too hard, you should make it more progressive. Particles effects are nice. Add more animations on enemies to make the game more juicy.
Good job.
Game play works well and also the light system. It's fun to play.
You should add a sound fx when banana explode on monster face, it would make the action more juicy.
Good job.
Good concept but it misses visual and sounds informations to understand what really happens in game. But we always forget feedback in game jam!
Lot of interesting ideas, need more work to make easily understantable !
I love the idea, you can make a very cool game with it (maybe a mobile game).
The design of the caracters is nice. The main issue is the control, it's too hard to manipulate the ladder. Also, add more effect to make the game more juicy.
Good job.
Nice game and polish with small animation and feedback! But it's quite repetitive
Cute little game! It's a good beginning, gameplay works, there are visual and sounds feedback, music, well done :) But now, to make this game really juicy and satisfying, I would like more feedback and feelings playing your game. For example the jump could be better maybe making it more "heavy" with more impact, just suppositions that's definitely not mandatory. But these kind of polish FX could be very long to implement, mostly during a jam. Good job and keep it up!
Interesting idea, nice GUI. The gameplay works well.
Add a background audio and images to illustrate text, it will make the atmosphere more intense.
Good job.
Very good idea, maybe a increasing difficulty will be better. Make it more juicy and it will be a very nice game.
Well done.
Very fun game.
The idea is very interesting and I enjoyed playing it.
The speed at the beginning of the party is too slow and bit frustrating. Add an indication to explain in game that the player can switch cell by pressing tab and a cursor to show witch cell is selected.
Also make the contamination more satisfactory for the player (ex: increase speed of virus, the size...).
Overall great job :thumbsup:
Nice game! I really love the art and all the characters, animations are also very good! It's easy to interact but some sounds would be great to make a better immersion in the universe :) Great job!
Cute game, it's a good beginning and concept has potential! But I would really like some sounds to get an experience more immersive, but it could be hard during a jam to focus on sounds. Nice work :)
Really good game! The mood, the concept, the puzzles, music, great job :) This game just blew my mind, mostly when you jump in infinite gap, that reminds me Portal mechanic
Haha this game make me laugh !
I really like the idea, the explosion effect is very cool. Let the car :race_car: to be faster, it will be more fun.
Overall, good job.
Nice game! I like the mood with music, lighting and decors, the concept is also interesting. Maybe the falling after a jump is too slow but it's personal. Great job :)
Lot of work for two peoples ! The dialog system works very well and secrets words is very good idea.
Good job :thumbsup:
Simple but very fun, I see a potential to be a hyper casual game on mobile devices. Agree with @fabula-rasa, the slime animation is very nice.
Great job :thumbsup:
Thanks everyone for your comments, we're really happy that you enjoyed the game :) @quinn-patrick you're right, we don't really know why, but the hit detection doesn't work sometimes... And we didn't have enough time to resolve this issue. Sorry about that, but thanks for playing, happy that you enjoyed the game anyway @matthewdavisgames Thanks for this comment, so glad that the Gif sold you the game! Yes, a button to quit would be great and mostly a cow boy sound! Thanks for feedback
Thank you guys for your feedbacks ! @vanea you're right, inputs are more reactive on standalone, hope you sill enjoyed it. @123seven3 our best score is approximately 16000, well done!
I love the idea. Explanations at the beginning of the game are very helpful. I think that enemis are too fast to be catch.
Good job.
Nice game! I love the sound, so relaxing and visual works too :) The concept is simple and fun, enough for a jam. It would be so cool to have more damping in mouvements and have the possibility to make a vertical loop, but it's just a detail to make it better, great work
Everything is awesome ! The idea is very smart and unique, I really enjoyed play your game. Great arts and sound.
4050 meters.
:clap: :clap:
Very nice retro gaming style ! The first two loops are little boring, but after that the game become more chalenging and stressfull. I really enjoyed play it ( I lost at 7nd loop :cry: ). Everything is polish, easy to understant the game mechanic, specially with the tutorial.
Amazing game :thumbsup:
PS : I love the music !
Nice character animation. The jump is too slow, make it fast it will be more fun. Also add a gameover screen with a restart button.
Good job !
Very entertaining tower defense. It's a good idea to have multiple map level, it's make the game more complexe and more intesting. It's weird but... it's fun to kill tourists :knife: :laughing: I would like tourist characters to be more animated. Add sound fx to make the game more juicy. Some traps are easy to understand but other are not obvious, specialy the bow with the detector.
@c4scar yes the cooldown is long, but you can reduice it by clicking on it, so it's ok.
Tutorial at the beginning is very helpful, you can improve it by adding illustration (not just text).
Sometimes the game become laggy.
Overall, I had a good time. Nice game !
Very innovative idea ! The game is well finished, the turoial is perfect, the player can learn quickly how to play. The first level is easy so it let the player understand the rules. The difficulty increase step by step, it's well balanced ! I would like more animations and effects, specially on the victory screen. Reward the player with a more juicy animation. The grid lines are too dark, maybe replace the black by light grey.
Overall, it's a fun game.
The cat is very cute, the sand and water shader is also nice.
The line is a little bit difficult to control. The game could be more fun if you add interaction to catch fish. You could add FX to make the game more juicy and a score system could be fun.
Overall it's good job.
Nice game ! I like the art of the character. The controls are very smooth. Some platform are little bit too high to jump easy on it.
Overall, it's very fun.
This a good base for racing game and good entry for a jam, with physic, driving feeling, music, sounds feedback! Adding layers of game feel, visual effects, sounds and tweaking you can create a really good racing game. Anyway, good job and keep going!
Arts are awesome, and this game is very polished. I enjoyed the game. The music is great but I'm not sure it fits well with the game. As @gaming-night , This game remind me "Don't Starve".
I think there is too much popup, you should show popup at the beginning and after just add FX and informations at the left or right side of the screen. Also, the button "set a camp" is not very visible, maybe change his position or make it more visible.
Overall, it's very fun game :thumbsup:
I didn't expect this kind of story for plate-former but it's really great haha Nice feeling on jump and falling even if there are some bug: sometimes when you fall on an enemy but you technically didn't jump you received damages. But for me the most confusing point is UI, I was not really sure what I was supposed to do but it didn't spoil my experience at all. I enjoyed my 10 minutes on this game, great job! :smiley:
The concept is very original and fit well with the theme. It's easy to manipulate objects to find words and it's very fun (I would like more secrets :smiley: ).
The environment is nice, I like the light. Maybe add more environements, items and animals. The music fit well with the game mood.
Good job :thumbsup:
Wow clever idea ! It's very challenging puzzle game. By adding animations and effects you can make the game more juicy and more addictive. Rules are not easy to understand but the introduction help to learn. An interactive tutorial would be more efficient to help the player to understand the mechanics. Maybe the first level is little bit to hard, decrease the difficulty of first level and increase it step by step. The background music is too repetitive.
Congrats !
Really ambitious, zelda mood, online, different items and mechanics, well done! I really appreciate that the game is balanced between sounds, visuals, gameplay, level design even if it could be better with more feedback on enemies specifically. But it's a really impressive job for a jam!
Amazing job ! Gameplay is fun, the goal make the game very intense. Graphics are beautiful, the UI is clean and well integrated. Animations are smooth and nice to look at. The background music perfectly fit with the game.
I would like a more juicy win animation, also the "easy" level is little bit to hard. Maybe increase the timer to let the player discover mechanics.
Awesome game :thumbsup: !
Simple design but clean and efficient. The worm movement are very smooth so it's very pleasant to move around the screen.
It would be great to add loop between edge of the screen or limit, it will avoid the player to loose the worm. Also, make the worm edge smoother to have a better render.
Overall, nice experience :thumbsup:
OMG what a surprise, the idea is very original :clap: ! This game make me laught (I should not, I was arrested :laughing: :moneybag: ), it's hard but also very fun ! This game remember me "Democraty 3".
I would like a mini tutorial and maybe more effect to make the game more juicy. Maybe add more dilema like : "Invite you girlfriend to restaurant and get more debt or keep your money and loose your girlfriend :smile_cat: "
Good job :thumbsup:
Oh my god, I think the game is really hard and also... I'm really bad haha Seriously, I like the vibe "Binding of Isaac" and graphics that remind me ps1 game but in good way. For me it's not an issue if the game is really hard but maybe the trap (that looks like big teeth) has a trigger too big or maybe the damage area is not clear enough, it was really frustrating. Maybe sometimes being more permissive in your gameplay, enemies AI, you can create a really hard game but also fair play, because as player we know the reason why we loose. But I appreciate the effort on sound and with more layers of game feel, visuals, sounds, it could be a really good game! Great job :)
Very polished game !
The gameplay is fun, the shop system works well, the characters animations are nice. I think there is two drawbacks : 1. It's not very obvious how much damage you take. The first minutes of the play I didn't see the health bar. Maybe add an fx to show taken damage. 2. It's not obvious what is the weakness of the fish. I would like an fx or animation to show me if the weapon is working or not.
I'm totally agree with @elendow , this game remember me (in a good way) "Lovers in dangerous spacetime".
One of my favorite game :clap:
Very original idea, it's surprising hard :smile: Graphics are awesome, animations are very nice.
Maybe add a "fast" mode for pro players :muscle: The background is music fit well.
Great work !
A cute short game! I played and I didn't notice first but my progression in the game was really smooth: I knew my goal and where I should go, there are the necessary feedback to finish the game. The core loop is quite repetitive, maybe you can add some element in your design to create surprise and encourage players to adapt their strategy. But I spend 5 good minutes, thanks for that :smile:
That was a strange experience but interesting concept. I didn't know what I was playing but why not! The sound is also interesting, maybe adding a background sound layer your sound design would be better. It's also quite repetitive, it need something to create surprising situation in your gameplay and encourage players to discover your game and what you want to tell through this text. Keep going!
Ahaha I choosed the wrong side, I guess... this is the life :smile:
Fun idea, it's very cool to race against a billion. You should increase the resolution of the background to have a better render.
@the-neon-shark is right, the progress is a bit slow.
Good job.
Nice game, plate-former game with procedural world in game jam is very ambitious, well done! Graphics and musics create a nice mood and improve your experience. I like the climbing feature even if sometimes you're stuck in wall mostly at corners but that's a detail. Bomb spawning on your head is quite frustrating sometimes. Maybe that's me, I didn't get it, I really struggled to find energy, I always died before finding it :laughing: Anyway, good entry people, it's impressive, keep going!
Arts are amazing and dialogs are very fun. The UI is clean and well finished.
There is too many doors with password, it's make the game repetitive and annoye the player. Also, there is console where the player have to write the password, it's very complicated for people using azerty keyboards : add a support of azerty keyboard or at least make the text input visible.
The amount of work to make a game like this is huge, so congrats ! :clap:
Very addictive, I think it could be a commercial game. Voices are fun (and also helpul to understand controls). The music fit well with gameplay, it give a good vibe. Maybe add more effect when a fish is wet, it will be more juicy and the player will fell more rewarded.
Great game, keep going to create more levels :muscle:
I loke the mole design, animations are nice.
The showell range is small and attack speed is too slow, it's a bit annoying. The dig controls works well, I would like dig anywhere to create my own way. The background music is nice. The tutorial in first level is very helpful. You should add effect and animation between level to show scores and congrats player (like spelunky)
Overall, it's a good job.
Very fun idea with perfect mood :thumbsup: The gameplay is smooth and addictive. Controls (gamepad) work well. Graphism, UI and sound perfectly fit the gore atmosphere.
With a better death animation the game would be more juicy. Also create a walk animation, the character is little bit to rigid. The level design is welldone, each levels are different and fun to play (as said @cameron-paxton "fun and varied puzzles and obstacles").
Overall, good job :clap: !
It's an intense experience ! This game remember me "her story". The UI is very simple but it creates a deep atmosphere. The audio fit well with this kind of games, but it's too repetitive. I would like more variation, specially during revelation phase. The phone is little bit too small, it's not easy to click on digits.
The story is great and I enjoyed the investigation.
Welldone !
Super fun game ! I didn't success to destroy the earth but I enjoy to play the game. The music is awesome and fit well with the gameplay and arts are great :clap:
Maybe make the bonus more powerfull (give more speed) and add fx to make it more juicy. I think, with little improvement it could be a nice mobile game.
Amazing !
Agree with @dzejpi it's very polished entry for compo :clap: The gameplay is simple but addictive. It's fun to catch gold, but it miss a purpose to catch gold : maybe a shop or bonus weapons...
The background music is cool, a little bit repetitive, but it's fine. Controls are pleasant.
Good job !
This game is very pleasant to play, it's become quickly addictive. I like the possibility to continue the game with another root branch when the player it something. More effects and audio could improve the juicyness of the game. The draw of the root is very fluid and nice to look at.
Good entry :thumbsup:

I'm the biggest fish of the sea!!! Nice game, the kind of game that don't have an original gameplay but I still enjoyed it. I like the mood, good effort on music. But I miss this feeling of power, like in Katamari Damacy, it's necessary to show you that you're getting bigger and bigger with environment, camera, etc. But it's a great game for a jam!
I love the art ! This is game is beautiful, the character design is so cute !
It's very pleasant to walk into the map, the light and the blur effect works well. The background music fit perfectly with the gameplay, it make the experience more immersive.
Great relaxing game :pray:
Characters animations and the map are very nice. Movements are smooth and pleasant. The camera is a bit akward, I played with my gamepad, I need to move the camera manually to often. The feeling of speed works well, it's very enjoyable. The background music doesn't fit with the game.
Agree with @jacobrutter , it's hard to stay on moving platform.
Overall, it's a good game, very polished :thumbsup:
Ahaha this idea make me laugh :smile: What awful boss to forget coffee ! Characters pixel art is nice. The music create a badass experience. I appreciate the support of azerty keyboard.
You should speed up the left and righ movement of the character. The font is not easily readable, but the GUI is clean.
Good job.
PS : the run animation is cool.
Nice, your core loop is an interesting base that could become a really good game! Easy to learn, the mechanics are clear but for now all the result is still rough. Feedbacks, graphics, audio could be better with more layers and create an enjoyable experience. But for a jam, it's great work!
The ASCII art is good idea, you should distribute a version for servers with no GUI :smile:
I would like a faster gameplay, but I still enjoy it. Highscore : 106 (I need more practice).
Good job :thumbsup:
Thank you @jeremia, I will try it !
Good concept, with polished UI and good sound effects, great job! Maybe more game feel when you succeed in aligning many rock blocks and exploding them, to create a really satisfying effect. Nice idea with bonus that you have to buy, is good way to improve replayability and engage player in your experience. Anyway, good job people and keep going!
The gameplay is simple but addictive.
You should add a background music to create an ambiance. The sound of the jump is cool but too loud and too repetitive.
An FX to indicate the power of the jump could help the player.
I enjoyed playing the game. Great compo :thumbsup:
Very beautiful relaxing puzzle game !
The idea is original (I don't know if it fit with the theme, but I don't care it's fun). Arts, sound effect and music make the game pleasant, chill and very polished. I like the wind effect and the water. The controls works well, the UI is well intregrated.
What to improve ? Not much... As @japes said "a shadow showing how much land a windmill would create"
Awesome game :clap: :clap: !
Very interesting puzzle game, the idea is clever. The sound fx works well, maybe add a background music. The design is simple but nice. It's easy to control and pleasant. I would like that elevators doors open on demand on not randomly. It could be a nice mobile game.
Overall, fun puzzle game :thumbsup:
Ahaha this game make me laught :laughing: The idea is so clever and fun !
Graphics are amazing. You should improve text recognition, sometimes I choose stupid words and my uncle is still happy :smile_cat: I would like to angry my uncle when I spam radio or air conditioning control. Some blank lapsetime are too long, maybe add a tiny game on mobile to distract the player when Uncle says nothing. Nice background music.
Overall awesome game, very polished :clap:
I really like this game! The neon retro vibe like tron, music, elements that moves at pace of music, great jobs! Maybe some tweaking to improve the spaceship control would be great and also some improvements on camera to help player to see the proximity with obstacles. A suggestion: sometimes change the speed of spaceship could create a surprise and make this game less repetitive but well done! Great game for a jam
Thanks everyone for playing and your comments, that's really encouraging! :smile:
@tombuston thanks for feedback, we're glad that you enjoyed the "retro vibe cat". That's good point you're right, game still needs some tweaking on the "distract feature" to make a better game progression.
@evogengames Cats deserve 5 stars, right? Just kidding, thanks for supporting us!
@jeremia Oh my cat! This is a really impressive score, hard core on "cat games" I guess :thinking:
@wesxdz Sure you right, more gameplay complexity would bring more challenge and maybe increase the game lifetime. But we choose to focus on game feel to make the game really enjoyable to play. Thanks for your feedback.
@energizedblast Really happy to read that you enjoyed the game and mostly smashed the feline army! Thanks for your comment.
@theapplecake Thank you, we spend a lot of time to make smooth and good animation in unity, really happy that you enjoyed it! Don't worry 25000 is not so bad :wink: "Not sure how it really fits the theme in my opinion but who cares, this game is fun and it’s all that matters." This sentence is a good recap of our game haha
@jfroggg YES! So glad that you had this experience with sound design: people who have cats know this feeling and we got you. Thanks for this feedback that really supports us :smile:
And don't worry: no cats were harmed in the making of this game.
@kr4ft3r Thanks for your comment! That's true, when you just look over the game, it could be hard to understand the link between the game and the theme. But we're very happy that you enjoyed the game, graphics and sound design. Thanks for reporting this issue, it's probably not a bug but just a lack of feedback (our fault). When you smash a cat's head after the "dizzy animation" it's angry and its "food bar" decreases quickly. But there is not enough feedback when the cat is angry so it could be surprising to loose like that.
@maniulo we had exactly the same problem when we tested our game with the sounds the first time :laughing: We didn't think about mobile/tablet support designing this game but you're right it also works on this platform! 45K is great score by the way, thanks for playing!
@villanelle " I’ll definitely play it again later." That's a really good compliment, thank you so much! Also thanks for reporting that issue we'll try to figure it out.
@tucan If you laughed playing our game, we probably succeed in making our game intentions :smile: Thanks you, we really focused on game feel and animations on this game, we're glad that you enjoyed it!
@saltysa Yes sometimes there are too many cats to handle for one human. Wow! Level 25 it is really impressive we didn't expect that people would go so far, thanks for playing!
@wdebowicz Thank you! We were so happy when the "cat following cursor" feature worked. Happy that you enjoyed it too :smile:
Thanks everyone for all these wonderful comments and for supporting us! :heart:
I enjoy the game !
@boxedmeatrevolution I think it's more the child of "Spelunky" and "Bomberman" :laughing:
The world desctruction work well. I think explosion are too slow, and flame missing animation. The shop is a good idea, but it's too long to get money (or I'm bad at this game :smile: ). Maybe change the character animation when is near to walls to show that he using an axe instead of bomb. Sometimes is not obvious what action the character will do. Add more sounds to create a deep atmosphere.
Overall, it's a good idea and a nice work.
Classic mechanic but well implemented. The physics works well so it's very enjoyable to control the spaceship. The spaceship animations are nice, the background music create a cool vibe.
Different kind of enemies should arrive quickly, it will make the game more intense.
Overall it's a good job :thumbsup:
I don't exactly know what I played but I think I like it! Good job on music that brings a great mood in your game, nice visuals: it looks like a weird dream so if it's your intention, it's pretty good job. Maybe some feedbacks would be nice to understand what we have to do or juste understand where we are in the game progression.
What HUUUGE work ! I'm so impressed by the result, it's so difficult to make this kind of game during a jam :muscle:
I think, there is all required features to make the game interesting. Voxel design is cute (specialy peeguins). With more animations and Fx the game could be very juicy and become a commercial game.
There is an issue, sometimes, I can't drop the building and it stuck on the mouse cursor.
Great game !
@lucavazz sadly no, I haven't noticed any pattern (seems like something hard to debug) :worried:
It's fine to have some bugs in jam game. The work is still impressive and the game is well finished :thumbsup:
Cute little worm, very enjoyable to move. The shop mechanic is a good idea.
Moles are cool but there missing animations to feel more dangerous. You should not allow mouse or keyboard in same time because there is conflict between this two controllers.
Good job !
Really good surprise, to be honest I didn't think I was going to play like 20 minutes haha It's simple but really interesting game loop and I didn't anticipate the earthquake fact so it was a really good surprise too. Maybe some tweaking on basic moves could improve game feel and make your game more enjoyable. Also add some layers of sounds and effect when you're going deeper and deeper in the cave could improve the experience, but the truth is I enjoyed my twenty minutes on this game, so... Well done!
Very cute game with a very good mood. The art is so cute, I enjoyed playing it.
The light transition works well. I think it's a bit too long to get new kind of enemies. Maybe add a controls to speed up the down. @cary-stanley, agree, the air bubbles slow the character, it's a bit annoying.
Nice job !
Capture d’écran 2021-05-02 123703.jpg
Nice game! Gameplay and controls are clear, sounds help a lot to create an interesting submarine mood, good visuals. Maybe I would like to see some visual/sound feedback to feel my progression in the depth (darker, more pressure, etc) but maybe I didn't play enough? Also, use the 3D sound to know, as player, where are the enemies. But it's great and I enjoyed playing it!
The character movements are very smooth and pleasant to control. I like the design of the shop, as @gimmers I enjoy to buy some stuffs :smile:
I would like more bonus items : invisibility, speed up, collect more gems ... Different stratum is good because it helps the player to see his progress and it make the game more addictive. Maybe add an fx to rewards the player when he reach an another stratum, the game will be more juicy.
Overall it's a good job.
Ok, I think I lost my integrity :smile_cat:, poor fish :cry:
I like the idea, it's very fun to play. Agree @gno-evenimente , leaderboard integration is very impressive in LD game.
Good work :thumbsup:
Very nice pixel art, it's very addictive game. I really enjoyed to dig deeper and deeper.
Maybe it's a little bit too long to get more items.
Overall, it's a good game !
Nice character design. The audio is immersive, the mood is intense. Agree with @ismael-rodriguez it may be better to let the player start walking before having the monster appear. Maybe the character is little bit too slow, it's a bit frustrating. I would like the ability to choose to run or walk.
Overall, great experience.
Nice idea, audio fx are cool and make the game immersive. I like the fact that the player can change his point of view. It's good idea to have added controls tips on GUI, it helps the player to remind how to control the submarine.
The submarine simulation is not obvious, maybe an interactive tutorial can help the player to understand all mechanics. I would like more "life" is the sea : add fish swiming around the submarine.
Overall, good work :thumbsup:
Very cute game ! Well finished, all screens are here and the transitions are smooth. I like the idea to add wind. As say @remusnomos, It will be nice to dodge up and down or control the drop speed.
Good job.
Good idea,
The root generation work very well and the UI is very clear. You should increase the game speed to make it more challenging. Also you can add bonus weapons like dynamite or jackhammer.
Nice work !
Very original idea ! Characters art is cool. This game has a nice atmosphere.
There is some issue with characters superposition. The goal is not very obvious, maybe add a tutorial.
The cover is very nice and attractive !
Good job.
Good idea with nice mechanic. You can improve the blood effect by adding gravity and speed up particles move. It's a good idea to add voices but sometimes it's little bit disturbing. The background music fit well with the game mood. The narrated intro is a good idea. Maybe add a gamepad support.
Good job.
Short and nice game! Interesting game loop with balancing between life and mental, I didn't get it first but game over text helped a lot mostly in french :wink: It's a good base but it could be improved adding more game feel: jump could be more juicy, maybe it's too slow we don't have the good feeling of jumps like in plate-former. But I really appreciate the work on your animation and sounds that's a really good point and make your experience more immersive. Great job and keep going!
The main character design is very nice. I like his swim animation.
I found the some issues : * The character can swim in the air. * The controls are inverted when the character is on the boat.
Cool idea, keep working on it :muscle:
Awesome game mechanic, the idea is very original and entertaining ! The art is beautiful. I like the background music, I think it's fit well with the game design.
A minor drawback : the window size is big and cannot be resize, maybe change to full screen or support window resize.
I would like more fx, make the win more juicy.
Great work :clap: !
That's really impressive to make a RTS during Jam, well done! I like the 8bit music, that fits with your graphics and your "retro game" mood. Maybe adding a small tutorial and visual/sound feedback in your game could really improve it and help/encourage players to understand all your mechanics. Anyway, great job!
It's a great job for a first game jam! You have the base for your gameplay with different levels, menu, game over, etc. I think now, it's all about adding layer on all your stuff: more game feel layer on your control to make it enjoyable, more visual effects or background sounds effects to create the dream mood that you really want. Anyway, nice game and keep going :smile:
Nice short game, like it! Great art style (hand drawing effect and paper cut) with chill soundtrack, that create a really cute game. Your game reminds me Pinkmin, I don't know why, maybe the mood and this miniature universe. Maybe some footstep sounds would be great and also using "faux-fixe" for some objects like character, I don't know the name in English sorry. Maybe you know it: in 2D animation, when you create 3 frames loop, you basically drew the same thing but the tiny difference in your sketch give nice "rough sketchy" animation. Anyway great job for a jam! :smiley:
This game have deep mood :smiley: The pixel art is very good and I enjoy to throw dynamites (I would like more).
This game remember me "spelunky" in a good way.
The sound of bats is too annoying, maybe you should add a tutorial.
Great job :thumbsup:
It's a good endless catacomb and I appreciate the effort on modeling with blender! But I would be really nice to have sounds that could really improve your experience and maybe add a new layer of gameplay on this walk sim. Also some tweaking on jump would be nice to make navigation better, keep going!
Very entertaining game ! The first round I was a little bit confuse about what to do, but the second round was more clear and I enjoyed it.
The gameplay is very complete for a jam game and the idea is original. I would like more feedback when I upgrade factory or when there is too much litter.
Overall, great job :clap:
Here my score :smiley_cat:
score-sleep.png
Ghost animation is nice, sound fx make me laugth (but they also uneasy me, I don't know what to think about it :no_mouth: ).
As says @binroot , I,O,P is little bit confusing at the beginning but after few minutes it's ok. Maybe just add control information at screen bottom can help.
The gameplay is smooth, maybe the speed should increase faster.
I enjoyed the game :thumbsup:
Good idea to have include control help at the beginning of the level, it's usefull and it's allow the player to enter quickly in the game. I like the laser animation, it's very nice.
Maybe the main character is a bit too small, and it missing a support for azerty keyboard.
@fractal, you're right, character should move with the platform.
Overall, a good job.
@atinybean don't worry, I still enjoy the game :smiley_cat:
Orignal idea, agree with @cheesepencil, fishing is more fun in this game.
You have to add more feedbacks, it's very hard to understand where is the hook. Also add more effects to make the game juicy.
Overall good job (specialy for a first jam :thumbsup: )
I have to admit, this game really surprise me (in a good way) ! Before start playing I said myself "a game in water, again...", BUT the mechanic of the jetpack and the transition between ground phase and water phase it's very original and entertaining.
Retro art and sound fx are very polished. The character animation is perfect, controls are smooth and the level design is pleasant. I would like a background music to create a more immersive gameplay. I like the idea of making the character speaking at the beginning to help the player understand what he have to do.
The game is hard sometimes, that's good, it's remember my old games. Hopefully, the player don't have to to restart the game from the beginnig :smile:
One of my favorite game ! :clap:
Very polish game, the 3d is great and fx are very nice !
Agree with @greenblacksky controls on keyboard are not very obvious. I think a gamepad will be better. I enjoy the game speed and the mood.
It's very impressive to have make an AI in jam game. But there is an issue in gameplay, if you spam the fire button you can win every time against the AI.
Amazing job :muscle:
Here my Highscore :
high-score.png
I like the effect transition between levels. Also, the fx when the player get 100% power is pretty nice and useful.
I would like a more animated character (make the fins moving) and different kinds of enemies.
Agree with @edmar-filho, levels are bit long.
Overall, it's a good job.
PS : a WebGL version would be nice.
Very nice retro game style. Controls are smooth and pleasant. Environement is nice and create a great atmosphere ! Main character animation is pretty.
It's a hard game but addictive.
Great work :clap:
Nice game! For a first a game jam it is really good and I really appreciate the tutorial in game and the effort with sounds and music. The submarine and the boxes remind me my childhood with crash bandicoot on PS1! I think you can tweak the speed progression to manage the challenge and encourage player to take a risk and to be rewarded. Also adding some layers of visuals effect and sounds effects you can improve your game feel when you're going deeper and deeper in the oceans. Great job and keep going :smile:
Nice game, the idea is very original.
Lighting effects are very pretty, the character animation is simple but works well. The result is very polished, and it's very impressive to do that as solo developper.
Maybe the left and right moves are bit too slow, and the cage is balancing too fast sometimes.
Amazing job :clap:
The retro art is very nice. It's pretty immersive for a text based game. It's seems difficult to create complexe scenarios during a game jam.
Good job.
Surprisingly addictive ! It's very satisfactory to see robots dig deeper for you, I always want to buy more robots.
You should allow the player to let mouse button press to keep digging.
Good entry.
Ok I have enought money to bought every items :smile:
deeper-idle.png
I'm little disapointed by the last pickaxe, it's so expensive I hoped it was very powerful like a nuclear bomb :laughing: :bomb: Anyway, I let the game running during a long time, it was very fun to see an army of robots working for me !
This game has a good vibe ! It's very colorful and the music fit well the cute arts. It's a good mood game for sure.
Sharks are so funny, their animation make me laught :smile:
Maybe you should add mechanics to make the gameplay more addictive (like weapons and booster).
Overall good job !
Nice plate-former game with a really great effort on character (modeling, animation, etc) and also music. It's a base but yes, it needs some feedbacks and polish to make this experience more enjoyable. For me the priority is the camera: sometimes it's very hard to see where you're gonna land during a jump with this point of view. But it's great job for game jam :smile:
Clever idea, I really enjoy erosing the ground.
The water effect is beautiful and the physics works well. At the beginning, the game is too slow but after 100 metters the speed increase too fast. You should add more steps. More bonus (like the dynamite) should be fun.
Overall, very fun game !
PS : I reached 155 meters.
Good game! I think it's a good base, the way that you use the shoot also to float is interesting challenge. Good effort on sound and music, it helps to improve the experience. Some feedbacks and effect when you shoot could make this game juicy and make this interaction really enjoyable. Great job!
Very impressive work. Fx are very nice, main menu and camera cinematic is cool. The combat system is fun, but sometimes a little bit repetitive. Sometimes, I feel like the character slide on the ground more than walk, maybe it's an issue between speed movement and animation. The jump action is not usefull, and the jump is not enough high and not controlable. I would like a jump action usefull to dodge.
The audio fit well, fx make the game very enjoyable !
I enjoyed the game, welldone !
Very addictive, the controls are very smooth and pleasant.
The funniest part it's to jump into the bubbles, the animation is very juicy. The character have a good speed. The game become hard quickly.
Great platformer.
Great game! Interesting mechanic that fits with the theme. The music, visuals, animations create a good mood in this creepy and deadly world, your universe reminds me "Medievil 2" on PS1 by th way :wink: I did understand first for the hiding place (add feedback could be better), but your level design leads player and encourage them to focus on one challenge so it works and I finally get it. I also like how your design encourage you to be curious, with some surprises or visible choices. I think the final result is pretty balanced, you didn't focus on just gameplay, and that's another reason why you made an enjoyable experience! I think control could be better with some tweaking, adding game feel layer (more juicy) specifically on jump, that's really important for a plate-former but for a game jam, it's great job, well done!
Very original idea and nice to play !
Graphics are nice and fit well with the gameplay. The audio is little bit too repetitive. It could be a nice mobile game.
Great entry !
Beautiful game, well finished !
Controls are pleasant, expect the fact that it's the same button to jump and hold the rope, I would prefer an alternative button. Audio is great, post process are nice. The tutorial is simple but works well !
Amazing !
I like the idea even if I've already seen another game (in this LD) with the same idea.
The map is pleasant to ride around. The truck is little bit to slow but funny to control. You should add support of gamepad controllers. It seems to complicated to control the throw power, maybe a hold and release could be easier. The map look great, but the light is little bit to shinny (some part looks white).
Overall, great job :clap:
Nice graphics and character animation.
At the beggining, I found quickly what to do (thanks to the light beam coming from the walls). I've enjoyed to explore the map, and the music help me to keep engaged. But after a while, the game becomme repeatitive and I lost interest. Controls are smooth and pleasant, maybe the character is little bit too slow. The destruction mechanism works well.
Overall, it's a good game!
What a crazy idea to use real world data ! :smiley: It's very original.
Bike controls are very pleasant, the weak gravity allow the player to simply control the bike in the air, and it's nice :thumbsup: I would like more challenge, like time attack or score from jump length... It's not interesting to collect items because there is no rewards. You should give something when player collect enough items : speed bonus, bonus life, better bike...
Old tv screen effect is very nice, I also like background music.
Good job :smiley_cat:
Haha very fun and addictive game !
I didn't understand the goal at the first place, BUT when I got it, the game becomes very addictive !
Controls are smooth and pleasant, the speed is well equilibrate. The music feet well if the gameplay.
Welldone !
The color system make a classic mechanic original and fun to play.
The game seems too hard, I would like a progressive difficulty (like in the game "chicken invaders").
Nice work !
The idea is very original and pleasant to play.
With more polish, the game could be very addictive. You should add in game tips, to help the player at the beginning. Also explain the purpose of gadgets.
The music fit well with the game and create a nice atmosphere.
Good job :smiley:
I like the art, colors are well chosen.
Controls are smooth and pleasant, as said @papercypress the game is well balanced. The bee animation is little bit too static, but the bear animation is impressive :clap:
Overall, good game !
Nice game, really challenging! I think your visuals combined with your sound design are interesting, reminds me some techno music video aesthetic. The concept is simple but it works, and I enjoyed playing this game to find a balance between spamming and dodging: it fits with the theme. That was unstable, well done! :smile:
Very original art style ! Using a paper to make the game UI is great idea :thumbsup:
In the option screen, the checkbox is not very clear because the shape doesn't change. A red cross to mark the option disabled will be better. The drag and drop is too slow in my opinion.
The music works well, it creates a very stressful atmosphere.
Good job :clap:
Brilliant ! The mechanic is simple but elegant !
I had very good time to play this game. Fx are nice, animations and controls are smooth. The difficulty increase gradualy, so it let time to the player to learn mechanics.
Drawbacks : no sound (this is a bug ?) and the fullscreen doesn't work. With a great audio, it could be an amazing game.
Overall, great entry :clap:
@xschaumix thank you for playing. You're totally right, we would like to add more levels with more difficulty.
@r3l0ad1 Thanks for your feedback, you're right, we still have some issues with loop feature but though that was enough for the jam, I mean not an urgent bug that stop players progression :smile:
@classicdillster Yes that's true: we didn't have the time to make all levels that we wanted, create harder level was also harder for us and longer, so we decided to polish easier level. Thanks for playing!
@wuppos Thank you so much for comment! Really interesting ideas, I like the idea that the ball could be in the air. We also thought about big map where you can't see all obstacles. You're right it would be great to have all the features and levels that we planned, but you know, jam are really short. Really happy that you enjoyed the game atmosphere! We spent so much time to polish it, thank you
@escapade Thanks for your feedback! Yes Momnument Valley was the prefect reference for us :wink:
@lauranto Thank you! We would have loved to have more content too :smile:
@mvasko2 Thank you! Yes, maybe " would like to see some challenging levels in this game" would be a better name than "an oddly satisfying game
@wamien Thank you for playing. You're right, jams are too short.
@gamepopper Thank you. In fact, there is no gif recorded, the game just replay player's actions in real-time (the physics do the rest of the job :wink:). Agree, a gif export could be a nice feature.
Thank you so much people for all your comments, for us, when you said that you would have loved more challenging levels, it's the best compliment that we can have, because that means you enjoyed the game and the concept! Thanks for supporting us :heart:
@mikoziq Thank you so much for this comment, really clear and useful for us! You and @turtle-games @verygenuinecraze @mathemagician and anonymous person are right about the theme. Totally agreed, it's hard to find the link between our game and the theme. Our point was, we didn't want to create a game where everything is unstable. Because for us, instability comes from stability. So we thought about something else... What if everything is stable, everything is perfect? Every mistake, weird thing would be unstable or really frustrating? Our references are satisfying video and also this video about unsatisfying stuff : https://vimeo.com/189919038
This video is an example of: how the perfection is unstable. Following this idea, we thought about the loop feature, to create satisfying stuff but we think we forgot the theme, and now, the game looks like a game for ludum dare 47 (stuck in loop as you said). Unstable was the starting point of our reflexion, sorry if it was not clear, we will pay more attention with this next time!
@supergamersgames Yes true, some bugs are still there, thanks for the feedback!
@kukurammus @mostel yes that's right: we wanted to make more puzzle where you have to click on ball to progress in puzzle with timing, but as you see, we didn't have enough time to it, thanks for playing!
@mrchip Thanks for reporting this issue, we will post a hotfix soon!
Thanks for your honesty people and for supporting us, it helps so much! We're really happy that you enjoy the atmosphere of the game even if it would be better with more puzzles, thanks :heart:
Very interesting idea, the GUI is very nice.
It seems that the difficulty is too hard at the beggining. You should increase the speed of game step by step, to let the player understant the mechanic.
The background music is very pleasant.
Funny game!
Hahah :smile: very funny game !
Graphics are very nice. Characters animations are well done and nice to look at. The control panel in front of the player is nice, but a little bit confusing : I want to click on buttons :laughing:
Overall, amazing work !
Nice game, you probably succeed to implement your intentions because... Kevin really gets me, he's a really annoying kid! Good effort with sound design, it's pretty functional but it works and it helps to understand when something is broken even if you're not looking at, good feedback. Some spatial footsteps sounds would be great for kevin to know where he is. But I enjoyed this game, it was fun to see kevin destroy everything :smile:
As say @fabernull, this game is surprisingly tense for a text adventure game ! And the idea is very original.
I think, it's little bit to fast at the beggining, I died too quickly to explore possibilities.
@doc-kaos You've survive longer time than me :smile:
Overall, nice text based game !
I like the idea and the graphics.
I got some bugs : sometimes, containers are stuck and can't release it. I would like fastest controls. Maybe add feedbacks to let the player know the mass of container.
Overall, great entry !
Very scary mood, I liked it !
It's very scary from the beggining, I would like a more progressive difficulty.
Agree with @sologk, "It would be awesome to see this concept fleshed out into more levels."
Overall, this game remember me Don't Starve and Silent Hill (in a good way).
Good job !
Wow ! Very original and clever game mechanic !
It could be a nice mobile game. Maybe add more effects when there many reaction in row to reward the player.
My highscore is 21.
Nice game !
This game is really fun and fit perfectly with the theme !
Pixel art is nice and effects are cool. The game is bit hard, but very addictive. It's a brillant idea to help the player by showing the orbit trajectory and a warning message when the orbit is unstable (great feature, keep it).
Controls are simple to learn but hard to master, that's make the game very elegante.
Great job !
I like the animation to introduce the background story.
You should use another font, more readable. Also add space bar to jump, it makes the character easier to control. The walk animation is too slow compare to the speed of the character, it looks like the character is sliding on ice.
Well done !
Very fun and original idea, fit perfectly with the theme :clap:
As said @jk5000 is very hard to find the right balance, maybe you could add information to help the player : show the gravity center after adding a block, show blocks' mass... Or increase the difficulty only if player find the right balance.
When blocks are merged, the physics explode and some blocks fall, that can be annoying. You should disallowed the player to merge blocks.
The render is very nice, the light is beautiful and the music fit well with the gameplay. The falling guy sound doesn't fit with the rest of the game, try to use another fx or something more musical.
Overall, great entry.
Nice platformer !
The game is fun to play, I really like the idea of creating blocks. I don't like controls because I can't jump using space bar and controls are bit sensitive. Maybe add some checkpoints.
@liam, agree, the music fit very well with the game.
Good job !
Hahaha :laughing: the market is very unstable !
Very original and funny to play. Controls are easy to learn. Character animation is nice, and it's funny to move around to buy stuff. It's not obvious when you have to pay taxe, maybe improve effect to make it more clear. You can improve FX when the player earn money, the game will be more juicy. Music fit well with the gameplay.
Great job :thumbsup:
Great shoot them all game ! It remember me nuclear throne.
The background music is very nice, and fit well with the dynamic mood of the game. Also fx are very nice. I would like more items with differents effects and levels less repetitive.
Overall, very good game (specialy for a compo :clap:)
Interesting idea, but hard to master.
I would like a tutorial or difficulty that increase step by step. Character design is very nice.
Overall, nice work.
Nice game, good entry :) I like the retro style, it reminds me megaman with visuals and universe. I really appreciate the effort with sound design and music that make your game more immersive! Maybe some situations in level design are too hard but it's a jam, so it's hard to have a balanced result quickly. Also more different type of challenges to surprise players would be great but it's a great job! :smile:
It's an very interesting puzzle game. The difficulty is quite balanced.
With more animations, sound and FX the game will be very funny. The gameplay fit perfectly the theme.
Good job, keep coding :muscle:
First PICO-8 I tested in this jam, and I liked it ! The idea is simple but clever, very funny !
The design and the effects are very polished, it's an amazing result for a game made in 48hours. :clap:
As many people said, I find the game very difficult, BUT I think it's what it make interesting. I would like a mobile version of this game.
Overall, amazing work !
The music and post process are cool, they create a deep atmosphere. The character speed increase too much, so it becomes uncontrolable. Bubble effects are nice too.
Overall, good work (specialy with not many hours of work :clap: )
So funny game !
Simple gameplay but very addictive ! It's well polished (specially for a compo game) :clap: The sound effect make me laugh :laughing: Art is nice, I would like more animation on main character. The shopping page UI could be improve with icons. The tutorial/introduction is very nice.
Great work :clap:
Amazing idea !
It's simple but quite addictive :thumbsup: The character animation is very nice. (As say @jk5000) with more levels and more mechanics it could be a great casual game.
Great job !
Awesome work !
The like the art style ! Animation are very clean.
I would like more kind of cards. Also, it's not very clear how the score impact the end of the game.
Very cool concept :thumbsup:
Zombies are not supposed to be already dead ? ;)
Nice looking game, the mood is perfect and fx (post processing) are really good. The gameplay remember me the old crash bandicoot :smiley: I think the jump is too slow compare to the run speed, it's make the game a bit difficult.
It could be a nice mobile game. Good job.
I loved to help this dinosaurs :)
Nice art, game mechanics are simple but elegant. Fx and audio fit well with the game mood but they are quite repetitive. I would like bonus item to boost dinosaurs power :)
Great job !
Very funny experience.
The audio and voice acting is amazing :clap: ! I've not seen how it fit the theme at the beginning, but after a while I got it : it's a genius idea. Subtitles could be nice for better accessibility.
@zombiebust3r agree, I would love to see statistics :)
Good job!
Thanks everyone for testing our game ! :smiley:
@daniel-foutz @quill18 @itooh Thank you for your feedbacks, we have fixed some mouse issue, the game should be easier to master.
@itooh Agree, we should have added more feedbacks, it's hard to understand why the shot is not perfect. But you know, jam is really fast
@conradoclark Thank you for notice us our mistake, you're right, it's "Mood" not "Humor". I guess I have miss click :sweat_smile: . Rate options are now fixed.
Thanks for playing and supporting us! :heart:
Very good tetris remake !
I'm not a big fan of tetris, but I have to admit, I really enjoyed playing this game :wink: ! The game is very well polished, effects are nice, art is great and the music feat perfectly with the game mood.
Fantastic game !
This game really surprising me, there is a complete background story ! I would like more secrets to discover and more action. Controls are very fast but very pleasant. I enjoyed moving my ship across the univers :)
Good job :thumbsup:
