Oh the music is really good and it's really cool to see a game made with scratch for the jam. A bit on the difficult side, and something weren't too clear (walljumping was confusing) but all in all good job :)
I think I agree with the general comments here. Hitboxes need to be a bit more generous, the camera is a bit too close and feedback is a bit weak (didn't realise why my cogs failed at first).
That said, it's the jam game i've played for longest so you must have done somethings right :D
I quite liked the game, very standard platformy stuff but all done quite well for a jam - jumping is a bit floaty and the web browser version dropped frames sometimes (download worked better), but all in all I enjoyed my time with it
I like how I slowly crumble. Not sure about the name of the game though.
I wasn't always quite sure what I was always doing. But that never stopped me from playing a game :D
Yeah I didn't get any close to beating it - the character slides a bit so even standing under the rays was a little bit frustrating sadly. I like the pixelart though :)
I too am a bit confused about how my actions on the slaves affect the game. I like the stickfigure animations though, poor guys killed themselves
That was cute! Gets hard at times
The most effective tactic seems to be not motivating your workers until they look for a reason to be motivated. I surprisingly enjoyed reminding them - probably because of the satisfying whip sound effect - good job on that
That was really sweet, although the traffic lights weren't always clear to where they pointed. I think I killed a person or two...
Haha that was quite entertaining. The music, the ragdolling, the questions (without a negative which was a pretty good design choice, I think) in the beginning.
Probably shouldn't tell you this, but you should drink more and jam more. Good stuff happens
Seems to be a general consensus that it still needs a bit more feedback for the user, which is fair (the bottom square buttons on the obelisk are also pressable at certain intervals, which seems to not be easily noted).
@onyon - they have 5 dialogue each, so that's expected.
@asteryz - after changing a colour, wait for the yellow flash at the top, should be more feedback that you're doing something right.
Thanks everyone for trying it though :)
I got quite a few frame drops too, from earlier even, although my PC is a bit crap. Otherwise looked pretty fun :D
Good job, really well polished game in 3 days, which is pretty impressive - had quite a bit of fun with it!
The music, looping aside, is still pretty good especially since it was made during jam time. Most important thing is probably adding some sort of landmarks, a maze can only be so cruel.
