The game is quite addictive xD It's very funny to play a game where we make a game after 72 hours of game development xDD I loved it!
Altought the draw minigame it's hard (colliders?) the others are very fun (We were practically programming all the virtual jams xD)
This game is great! I didn't expect that monster who ate the walls. The arts are simple but it fits perfectly with the game.
I really enjoy it!
I really liked the game! It's quite challenging being ready for a day in the withc academy! Nice art and funny. Perhaps the colliders of the interactables are hard to get sometimes,but the overall is very cool! Good job!
@Red_Fan games
Sorry! It was too late and we were sooo tired xDDD
Our poor programmer are now crying in a corner singing softly "colliders, colliders, colliders everywhere".
@n00basaurus
Well it's true our mechanic are buggy, we are trying to focus on it. Different speed between animations are intentionally different (because we thought that a horizontal jump from a mouse is larger than running). Perhaps it makes "obsolete" the running mechanic but if it is obsolete, why we have a jump/walk mechanic in platforms games? xD
Anyway, programming need more work and less levels probably.
Thanks for the feedback.
I love sound efects, they are really cute. The game is easy to understand and easy to play. Good job :)
It was very funny but my arm hurts!!xDDD Nice work!
I love the idea! I want to play in my mobile! (I get stuck in the level 25 ~~)
The concept of the game is awesome. I'll play it for hours. Love the arts and the music. I wish there was more levels!
Good work
Uau, this is one of the top game of this Jam. Love the music, art, gameplay and all!
You should go and publish this game for mobile platform,it is amazing.
Good job! It's so funny! Maybe it would be better if you zoom out a little because it's hard to know where are the enemies. Another solution would be to point them in the limits of the screen with arrows or other sings. Good job anyway.
I really love it! It's really funny. The only thing I miss are subtitles XD I'm not native english and I guess I miss some of the machine's monologue. Good job!
It doesn't work :(
It was very funny and addictive with all the shoppings you can do. Deffinetly is a great gameplay and a cool polished game to be made in the compo version. Great work!
Nice work. I like the mechanic. I tried to play without water and I get 54s! (and with water 85s xD)
I love the idea! The concept is very cool, and the animation of UI seems very nice. The problem was the movement mechanic feels a little uncomfortable (i dont know when can i double jump and in some levels was difficult to me to jump over the boxes).
Instead of the movement, the idea and the game is pretty cool!
I like the idea of being "puzzleded" in the same room changing the challenges every room. It would be amazing if there would be more levels and challenges. The art is nice and the music fits very well. At least I noticed a little bug wih the "change sprite" when you are walking and press different keys at the same time.
Anyway, good job!
Art is nice, gameplay is nice, animations are nice... good job!I dont know if i am so noob or what but i feel frustating when i died and I need to go the candle every time (at least int his game, when you learn from death).
But... Amazing job!
Nice idea and very addictive game. The flo along the GUI and the sprites are nice. Nice work in every part of the game!
Guau, nice idea. It's hard (I get 500$ xD), with some control of the building mechanich it woulb easier (Is there a way to control and I dont know it? xD)
It's funny. Obviusl art could be polished but, if you do all the work (music, art and programming) in 72 hours it's very good.
I really like the music, it fits with the gameplay.
I think when granny is moving the sprite is going crazy and turning around with no sense xD
Anyway, good job! Hope I sse you in the next LD!
Nice concept. I love puzzle games and you did a great one for this jam. At least you could add some music, FX and animation to win a 10/10/
This remembered me a game I played when I was a child. It's a quite fast and sometimes it's very dificult to avoid those falling christmas presents. But I liked it!
I liked the idea. With a art a little more polished art/controlls it could be very addictive. But... if you did from scratch with OpenGL in a weekend... that's a success!
U-A-U. I really love the concept. It's one of the top concepts i see in this jam, I love it! Nice art and music fits very well with the flow of the game. It's one of my favourite game in LDJAM37. Good job!
Your humor is somewhere between awesome and sad xD Great job! The game is fantastic
The game idea is nice and the difficulty of the game makes the gameplay atractive. With some musics and FX it would be nice. IT's a great job if it is your first game in a jam!
I really enjoy playing this game. The mechanics evolves correctly along the levels. When I started to play i couldn't stop until the end XD Nice work.
Art is nice (with the animations), physics works correctly and interaction between chars are properly defined. It would be amazing if it would have some background music.
Anyway, Good job!
I like the idea and the mechanic of attack/warping. But the camera is a little confusing with that rotation.
Forgetting the rotation camera, is a nice game!
Nice work! Sound fits very well with the flow of the game. The art is well executed for the type of game. Buuuut.... I think it's pretty hard xD It would be great if it was a difficult selection at the beggining of the game.
Nice work anyways!
Nice and interesting mechanic. I would appreciate if we could select the difficulty of the game (at the beginning is hard to destroy the red circle). The movement is challenging, and I love that xD (perhaps ¿rotation could be selected with the mouse?).
It's a nice idea to keep developing!
I like the mood of the game, is so relaxing :).. And I love the pink birds sound "Piiii pi pii pii" xDD
Good ambience with music and light. Control are confusing at the beggining at hard at medium-end game. Perhaps it would be easier if direction not being managed by the mouse position.
Funny game! As other said, it's easy to play and hard to master. (Perhaps it's too difficuclt to reach 5000 with the game desing concepts they are?).
Music fits very well.
Good job!
Guau! Love the game! xDDD It was one of the funniest game so far I've played in this ludum xD With music this game could be really amazing! And if you could do some type of multiplayer (even local)... you have conquered this ludum xDDD
Really really great work!!!
It's funny the exploration concept, taking objects to interactuate with the enviroment. There was a little bug with some colliders making hard certains zones to explore and the combat is strange (against bats the only thing I could do was smashing the mouse xD).
Music fits very well with mood of the game.
Overall is a nice entry for a compo team. Good work!
+I love the background style, it's unique and the music perfectly accompanies the atmosphere of the game.
-The protagonist is a bit slow maybe, and the camera changes are confusing.
But overall it's a great entry.
.
Bug1: Screen Resolution vs background:
https://i.gyazo.com/708bc9b6b0fb34076915635c448b1840.jpg
Bug2: I do not know if you have optimized it to play with gamepad, but when opening the inventory it closes the whole game ...
The idea is really cool and fun to play, smooth control/move, as it should be.
As a negative part, graphically is not the best. And there are 2 things that bothered me a little, the screams and the fact of not knowing clearly where it happens. The platform or whatever ... I suggest something more like galaxies or something...
I also missed some interaction when a player hit the other dashing. A bit of knockback maybe?
Music fits very well with the game and the mood. The movement seems a little tricky when you are trying to move along the space.
I lost a lot of messages because I was travelling so fast and I dont know how to reduce the speed xD
Planet art (how bigger planets are darker than other +1) look nice, as the random galaxies, but the background seems a little poor (the square background stars).
Overall, is interesting to explore te space looking for planets and avoiding dark holes xD
Good job!
Nice work! It's very addictive.
This is a great adaptation for the theme and it's very funny. The board is changing in every wave and give variety in every wave.
Cool game jam!
Lovely art! The game is fun to play but the enemies makes the game unfair. I dont know, perhaps a way to heal yourself with something makes the progression easier to do. Difficult needs to be polished.
Anyway, is a good game for a jam. Great work!
It's funny. At the end I lost all my towers and I needed to run to gather resources trying to build some towers to win xDD
Great work.
Last level is the fucking hell apocalipse xD It was defintely a fun game to play. Mechanic is simple, enough to start quickly to play and stay at the keyboard until you finished all levels.
I like the retro music and I still dont know how you makes the final level playable, but you did it xD
Great work!
It ws a fun game! With a little soundtrack It would have been better.
Good job!
@huminaboz Thanks for the feedback! WASD is not designed to be used to movement, the arrows are intended to be used for the movement. But thanks to your comment we know that WASD is activated too xD
Thanks!
@icxon Thanks for the feedback!We have seen that sticky skill is a painfull skill for everyone so we are trying to polish that but out of the ludum we dont have enought time to do xD
Thanks for the video/playthrough/bug report (xD)!
This a very solid compo game. The core mechanic is funny and the concept of the gravitational bullets is very interesting.
There is only a few things I see in the game: -The rotating background fazed me, perhaps it would be nice a star static background. -Background music, it would have been very nice playing with a retro music. -A little of challenge. It's easy to master the mechanic and I felt that I need some challenges (other enemies, possibility to kill the ufo, I dont know xD)
Anyway, is a great solid compo entry, and overral it's a funny game. Good work!
I'm afraid to confess I spent some time trying to pass over the strange-turtle-planets' heads to reach the goal. Then I realize I couldn't xD I love the idea of having different ways to pass through levels. I think you made a cool game. It's a good idea with nice mechanics, nice music and funny graphics. Congrats!
Simple game but a loot of fun! You did the most difficult task making a game, keep it simple and fun xD There is a lot of complex games in thi jam but instead of that, for me, this game is one of the greatest games of the LDJAM38, It's not easy to make a simple mechanic to entertain people.
Music fits very well, the mechanic is simple but is complex enough to keep the possisbility of doing some cool tricks to reach a higher jump.
Really nice work. You can polish the idea of the game to monetize in google play/app store markets, good job!
It's a good game for a compo jam. The art looks nice and animations too. You did details (like dirt on camera) that make game better. The game is interesnting and have differents objects to interact that makes the game more complex.
The only thing I dont really like was music, it is strident for the kind of the game and annoying me during the gameplay.
Anyway, good compo jam!
Nice idea! I love the concept, makes this shotem different. It needs some polish on the level progression because the second bosss is too difficult to be the second xD
With more work and polish it could be a long and great game.
Hope I can see the final version!
PD: We use the theme "small world" in some way like you, as a germ! xD
Lovely art (he reminds me some cartoons when I was child xD). The gameplay is fluid and it's funny to play. Music fits very well.
It's a nice entry for a compo jam. Good work!
After a couple of levels I get used to the controls and I really like the concept of the game! Well done!
Lovely art and relaxing music!
Game has a lot of details on the plant (it was difficult to me to save people insted of stay lookinf what's going on on the surface xDDD).
The core mechanic is fun but is a bit difficult to me to keep track of what is killing people on the planet.
Anyway, it's a really nice jam entry. Great work!
I really enjoyed the game! It was great to see the planet moving acording to the time and it was funny to see the little planet tied with a rope. Great job!
Incredible art for a jam! It would be nice if I could to avoid damage in some way. The music is a perfect adaptation for the game and it is a hardy build for a jam.
Great work!
+100 to the music xDD Love soundtrack and how it is changing between different states. Mechanic simple but very addictive. First time I was confused with the green item (I thought it was dangerous). Overall is a great entry for this ludum, very very great work!
Cute graphics and nice dog conversation xD Althought it would be nice if it exists more interactivity and perhpaphs ¿win/loose condition?.
Good work anyway!
Uau... it's amazing you have made this game in 72 hours. The core mechanics fits very well and the puzzles you did with that skills are very fun to play. Seriosly, it's amazing you could do that amazing level desing in that short of time.
Music go with you along all the game.
I'm very amazed with this game. You deserve to stay at the top 50 game of this ludum.
Great work!
A small nice platform game. The concept is funny and the difficulty progression is well balanced making hard enough to want to play to collect all coins but not so frustating to leave the game.
Retro music fits very well. Perhaps I felt that the next "platform wave" is confusing because not all the transparent platforms become a solid platform (and if it is not, I felt like that xD)
Good job!
I always love this type of puzzle (there was one similar in pokemon silver xD). You did a personal design to this idea with the breakable stones, portals and dangerous blocks.
I enjoy the game until the end, even when I was afraid of the difficulty with all different object in the same level I could reach the end, so you did a great difficulty progression.
With other art style you could put this game in mobile platforms without problems. Great game and good job!
Cool game. I played with keyboard and it camera was a little anoying (if I use left-right camera moves so fast and annoy me a little). Perhaps this could be fixed with smotth movement of the ship (lock the possibility to turn back fast).
Music was very nice along the game + 1.
Art looks nice (lighting is amazing). Perhaps models are simply and aliens are... weird xD
Obvisuly, there is no much time in compo jam so, for a compo jam you did a fun game. Good job!
The art is cool and the music is relaxing for this game.
The game is fun to play and the concept makes you feel you have freedom to choose where you spend your stars (if an asterod is not dangerous for the orbit it has for example).
It's still and short game. This could be a nice game for a mobile platform if you polish the idea and the mecanichs.
Good job!
Fun game! It was very hard to do more than 3 laps around the planet xD
Good job!
It's nice to see some storytelling in a jam. + 1 I love the story and the emotion you put in the game and the way you tell the story. +10
The game concept it's funny (arcade games are funny) but it's frustating to not have a way to get checkpoints or something similar, because start at the beggining every time you die is... not funny.
Sound fits very well with the story and the "emotion", good work.
Althoght art helps the story it's very improvable.
In overall, it's a nice game for a jam!
Great game. Lovely art and nice music (perhaps the "poooom" every turn you mix something is a little anoying).
The game concept is funny, and i have to confess, I died 5-6 times for using wood in the mistery building instead of calculating the turns i will need for feed me xD. That was funny, making some type of strategy to survive and build the mistery building.
Nice entry overall, good work!
PD: There is a bug with textures in the webgl version because everything seems black.
Fun game. The concept is simple enough to understand and making possible differentss ways to complete the level.
Music fits very well with the gameplay. Art is lovely and making planet expresssions is a great detail (They are scared if the asteroid is closer! xD)
Good job!
Well, nice entry. How you make the enviroment is very amazing. Controls are ok, sometimes its get stuck and den stop moving. Music fits very well with the mood of the game. It would be amazing if it would be more level to play.
Great work and good job!
It's a funny concept. The gameplay ends very soon but you can develope more gameplay around this concept.
Good job.
I really like how you mix this 2 genres. Building and racing are opposite genres, one is fast and other is slow, about think how to build... so good job!
As other says, the building sometimes make a buggy race but I have seen that you are working on a post-jam version so I'm really interested in playing that version!
Good job!
It took me a while to understand how I was supposed to destroy asteroids but I enjoyed it. The music is pretty cool.
That was a nice game!
Nice mix of the genres, perhaps it would be nice if the goals would have ramps to force the ball to enter (and use the pinball arms)
I like that you use rounds to unlock new parts of the pinball, it makes hard the gameplay and very funny.
Perhaps the player arms could be move quickly? Something like it move faster as you keep pressed the joystick or something liket that.
Good job!
I really want to play a full game of this.
Nice idea, great innovation, music fits very well, the game is fun... Everything is perfect!
Really really god job!
Nice submission for a compo jam!
Music fit well with the rythm of the game and that is ver hard to do xD
It's kindly difficult to hit hearts if the are so close (sometimes)
I like how you mix this 2 genres, good job!
This game is fire!
I really like the concept and you get me hooked playing here for a while! Really nice game!
Good job!
My god this game is fire. I was here to play a little to can rate and I spent a lot of time playing xD Good dammit job with this game!
Good game!
I like the conceptand it was fun to play. Perhaps with differents words and differente music it could be an educative game (typing, reading and rythm).
Good job with the music, too many songs for a jam so... great job!
Thanks @Jupiter_Hadley for playing it!! 😊😊😊
@MariosManiatis You did it! You save the Panda! Good job!
I fell tottaly in love with this game. The ball sometimes went through the paddle which made it difficult to bounce it back to top, but I have a lot of fun. Well done!
xDDDD My god this game is fire.
I think this is the first game that make me laugh xD
Nice concept and fun gameplay!
I really loved this! Combining these two genres was a cool idea. It was funny trying to coordinate the jump with the arkanoid. Great job :)
Cool concept! The sounds were quite creepy. I loved the idea of running from the ghost if you die in a mini game.
I really love the message of your game, that's adorable, I really appreciate this kind of games that make people think :)
I play two times without trick the game (moving quicly the cursor to the corner before life gets time to throw you things, you know xD) Perhaps it could be fix doing what people have said about random positions of the cat.
Anyway, nice entry and really really good job with your message! Hope we see in the next ludum dares!
Nice game!
It is a good concept to play, the music was a good choice for the game.
Perhaps it needs more feedback on the buttons (also is in the car).
And I dont know if it is on purpose but it seems less polish if you dont change the Arial typo of Unity xD
Good job with the game, you got me hook here for a while xD
P.S: When you restart the game music dont usually to start and you are playing for a while in silence.
Good job with the theme! Horizontal thinking, that was a nice idea! xD
I like how the game looks and how it works.
I appreciate how you designed the waves to force the player to think how to shoot and reload, it's pretty accurate Good job!
Music fits very well with the game and I really love it! Very very good job with this!
Nice entry, hope we see in next ludum dares!
The important thing here is to finish in the deadline of the Ludum. You did your first entry and at least, you have a game, that is what it matters!
I feel pretty unfair that enemies spawn because I dont have time to avoid them (I dont really know where they are! xD). Perhaps you should try to trick the players spawning the enemies far for him (or in a safe radius)
It's important to have time to "polish" the game, for example, you could use another font for the in-game text, or the spawning enemies system.
Anyway, you made a game in 72 hours alone, that is an amazing job so... good job!
Hope we will see in next ludum dares!
That was a nice idea!
But I have to say that it was very difficult to mix those ones. Where I was playing I was only focusing on one of the genres (piano o STG) and I feel that it was not important (in the game) to be ignoring one part of the other gameplay.
Also background music (canon) was too soft compare with the keys effect (it would be nice if the main music will be loud because I need the rythm of that to anticipate my movements).
Art is nice but iwith some short kind of animations it would be very nice!
Anyway, it was a good and hard try, good work!
That's a nice concept game! Goog job!
I really like the gameplay, it's very funny!
Perhap's it's very hard sometimes, it would be amazing if in this game we can choose the difficulty of the game (or perhaps a level progression).
Anyway, this game has potential, good job!
I love the art!
I got hooked with the gameplay! I really love the dessign of the game, the differents enemy behaviour give a lot of fun to the game!
It would be nice to have more feedback with where I can switch the ship, maybe?
Good job!
Googd job with this!
Perhaps it would be nice if the car would be able to turn faster (to make a tight scapes with the cars). And there is in some points where cars spawn perhaps ¿so close?
Anyway, I feel in the most part of the gameplay that I can avoid the cars and answer the childs but I dont feel childrens annoying in the gameplay (perhaps they could affect on the controls of the car?)
It's a solid jam submission.
Good job!
That was a pretty cool entry!
At the beggining the controls are a little confusing because it's hard to handle your up-down movement at the same time you are shooting. But by the way, that it is where the magic of your game is so... good job! :)
I get hooked with your gameplay and I have to say that I like how you make the animations.
Well done! Hope we see in the next ludum dares!
Love the game.
I think that the most difficult game to do it is a game with a simple mechanic and keep it simple. And you did it!
This game is simple but effective, good job.
I love the feedback you put in the game (usually people forget to make feedback in theirs games) and the music fit very well with the kind of gameplay.
And the gameplay is just... perfectly good designed about the concept of the game.
So... goood job! Hope we see in t he next ludum dares!
Nice mixed genres!
It would be amazing if there were more feedback about the letters change. I feel pretty good the letter you have on actual ammo but it would be perfect if I could know when it is going to change the letter or what letter is going to be.
Perhaps the difficulty it is a little easy? I dont get touch by the zombies in any moment. It could be improved if the IA comes to get you for example (or going harder to you xD)
Anyway, that is a nice entry, I like the idea and I have fun playing this!
Good job!
This game is so beatiful and the concept is so sweet! I love it!
Everything fits veeery well!
Good job!
Good job!
Well, I dont know I can move the camera seting the cursor on the edge xD Once I know it it was a nice gameplay.
I like the game idea and it's funny. One thing in overcooked it is that you get stressed about the time but in this game you dont get strees, you enjoy the process because you have only to manage your resources ignoring the time.
Maybe the scene is too big compare with the thing you can do.
With more polish and defining a level progression or something like that it could be a good game to play (but you should differentiate from Overcooked right now xD)
Good job!
I like how you mixed this genres!
The gameplay feels nice and it's very funny being dancing and farming for feed the monster xD
And the art is pretty cool (I really love the dance movements). I like the "paper-mario" style.
Good job!
It was very funny to play! I laugh a lot where people was "Hyper" and turning around herself xD
Perhaps it would be nice to have more range to "hit" the player and have some feedback on the ui (when you are playing you discover what it life and waht is your goal but it is better to see in a first watch).
The office is funny, you have a lot of things around you and altought the IA lacks sometimes in the cornes in overall it works pretty nice.
Good job and hope we see you in the next ludum dares!
Wow, I really like the game, I get hooked winning some monies to invest in upgrades xD
Perhaps I felt that the stealth gameplay was secondary because I can drill without thinking about the turrets. I dont really know how it could be fix this point (perhaps with a progressive difficulty? I dont know)
We appreciate the all-breakable game because it's not easy to handle this (at least as a programmer).
It would be amazing if the game had some sound effects and also so background stealth music.
Anyways, it's a nice entry! Good job!
Wow! This is a nice idea!
Good job with this. I think the jump it could be polished because you get stuck in some places where you think you sohouldn't be stucked xD
I love the pixel art and how the gameplay feels.
Good job with this!
PS: I died for one shoot of the helicoper (I dont know if it is intended but I saw I had 3 lifes and I thought that I would have 3 hits)
I really like how you mix those themes in one game! There is very nice to have feedback from the zombies-waves to be able to think a strategy to play.
Perhaps it would be nice to have a way to win life over the days? I'm not sure with this because I feel the design of the game is in a perfect balance to enjoy the game.
Just one thing about the gameplay, it would be great if the ball stop before than now (just a little).
It was amazing to see you implement a wind mechanic, that was nice!
So, good job and hope we see in next ludum dare!
