Holy cow! The graphics are incredible! Amazing work, I would have thought this was a jam game but no, it was all done by one person in 48 hours... That is so cool! Also sheep are among my favorite animals so killing them was very sad for me ;-; I'm not really sure what the apples do. I kept sacrificing sheep but no new ones showed up.
Liam looks spooky!
Smooth controls and beautiful graphics!
Really cool game! But I feel as if this would have been a better fit for Making Connections instead of the sacrifice theme. At the end of the day I didn't understand that I had sacrificed people at all by hanging up on them. Still it's definitely one of the more interesting games I've seen for LD43!
Cool game! The children got stuck in walls sometimes (hmm, it's almost as if the children didn't want to die) :p Very cool town building idea
Oh wow - That's incredible though to be made in such short time! Are you going to keep working on it?
I am really impressed with how long this game is! And it was very funny :D Great job
Great game as always!
Very cool! The art style is well done. The AI is very difficult to beat, they move and attack very fast.
Cmon man, the point of Ludum Dare is to receive honest ratings and get feedback which you can improve on until next year. Cheating and getting top scores in everything just defeats the purpose AND is unfair to other competitors.
This is a cool idea! I got 67 score. It's a nice challenge. My only request is that you make the player move faster, it was frustratingly slow. Also as TwoPM mentioned I didn't understand the mechanic of "The chickens give food back". Great job!
5/5 on everything, awesome game
I can't play the WebGL version, it requires me to donate at least 1 USD to play
The polish button disappeared for me and then people complained that my game wasn't polished enough
God does not like "ANIMAL" but god likes the cow... Is the cow not an animal? Confusing...
The UI looks very nice, the backgrounds are great too, and although the story feels a bit rushed it was still very enjoyable. I love goats and I am sad Goat had to die. He seemed good. :(
Really well-done game, it's a bit slow though, we got to round 100 which took over 30 minutes, and then died of starvation before being able to make the final summon. It was a really slow buildup and I'm a bit disappointed we didn't get to see Satan :') But still, great job!
It has a couple of bugs (like you cannot die) but still cool game!
Great animations! And the UI looks good too! ^^ Controls are a little bit clunky
Hahaha, hilarious game! I love that you are using pen drawings as game art! It's a cool mix of 2D and 3D. The lighting composition of the room is very good. Also funny voice acting.
Woah, spooky!! I really liked this game. Deciding the fate of people was fun :)
Lovely 3D models and well programmed AI movements. Not sure about the theme but it was still enjoyable
It's funny how he expands when he eats the burger! I also noticed you could just hold space to win and that removed any challenge
@giovannibarrottu Thank you for the long feedback! I'm actually going to upload a new version of the game in a few minutes which fixes all the complaints people have had about the game (enemies & boss will be easier, the sacrifice mechanic more clear, and will include the soundtrack that was made for it). I'm going to request that people do not update their ratings according to the new version of the game, it'll just be there if people want to try out the new version :D
Cool puzzle idea! The art is good too! But I have 2 issues with the game. Firstly, it's a bit difficult controlling the squirrel, especially if you rotate the boxes. The controls may get inverted or you'll have to press the right arrow key to move up etc. Maybe this is intentional, but I would have prefered if you could move up and down with the up/down arrow keys instead of left/right. Also if you collide with the snails they will shoot into the air. Maybe this is also intentional, but it looks a little buggy! And finally, the snails are very slow (I know, snails are slow) but it's kind of boring waiting 30 seconds for the snail to make a full loop through the box. My recommendation is that you expand the map (add more boxes) and make the game more fast paced! You've got a good base for a puzzle game but it needs to be improved on a bit further. Still, great job!
Awesome game! The graphics look great, I love the texture and shaders you used on the floor. And both the music and SFX is well made. I would have liked a checkpoint system because it takes some time to run redo the map each time you die. But I really loved this idea overall, great job!!
Cool game! Love the music. I had a bit of a problem though with trying to squeeze through holes, my alien minions moved around so much and killed themselves that it didn't matter how well I dodged!
Fluke! Nooooo!!! :( Really cool twist at the end. Also loved the music and art! subscribe to pewdiepie btw manneeeen
Why did you remove the Humor rating? The game was funny! 5/5 on everything
Super cool game! I noticed you can scroll on the text in the book of names and it messes up the text UI a bit. Love the graphics and atmosphere!
Fun game! I really love how you implemented the theme in this! And the graphics are very pleasing and the controls are smooth and good.
To add to my previous comment. 1 suggestion, add a Restart Level button. If you die at the start enough time a large pile will build up and you will get stuck in it and can't move
Nice idea! But it could be improved upon a lot. The movement is very choppy (important to fix) and some levels are impossible to beat. Like Amanda said, the second level for me was filled with apples but had no exit. I ended up getting like 4000 energy with nowhere to go and had to restart the game. Some other maps are too big with too few apples so you run out of energy and there is no possible way to beat them. And the skeletons are pretty much possible to avoid too. I would suggest that you first fix the choppy movement, and then redesign a couple levels and playtest it a few times!
Hi, please lower the saturation of the "Room" screen, it's too bright pink. Also the font of the text is a bit hard to read
5/5 on everything, awesome game!!
This is cool! I managed to save myself an 3 people in the end. The music is my favorite part.
Woah, this is really cool! Smooth controls and I like the idea of building your own cards with stats. ^^ Great idea and well executed
I like that you took this opportunity to convey this message. Those poor cows! It would have been even better if you included some statistics of the environmental impacts of meat too at the end ;) Other than that, great job on putting the cutscenes together, they looked very well-made.
Very nice! The shooting feels good, I love the sound effect and the blood effect, also the sprites are really well-made. I think the levels are a bit cramped with all the enemies, it's hard to move around, I had to dash through the horde and take a bunch of damage instead of trying to dodge them by moving around the map.
Great game! The art style is simple but looks really good. Love this!
I love the graphics and the idea of the transmission panel. It's very difficult to control though, and the delay on the transmissions make it even harder! I think it'd be nice if you kept the functionality, but worked on making the controls easier :v:
Really adorable graphics!
I can tell you had fun with the particle effects, and it looks really great, I especially love the fireball explosions! The texture for the walls is also really detailed and pretty. I liked the combat, too.
Really pretty graphics! Gameplay is nice too. I like the bg music but the sound effect from clicking the statue was very loud in comparison
Such an adorable game! Love it!
Great game! I LOVE the Pokemon inspired art and music! Probably my favorite from LD44 so far :)
I really liked this idea with dragging and dropping the words, the story was intriguing, a bit difficult at times, so I had to look up the guide. Some more hints would be nice. Also considering the story took over 1 hour for me to complete, the ending was a little unsatisfying sadly... I wish there was a bit more explained about what you were doing, what "invertebrae" was or some sort of plot twist. The ending still left me wondering and I wish there was more to it.
Very good puzzles!
This was very cool! But I wish there were some more clues to who was real or not, I had to guess around 10 times before getting it right
Cool! I think it would be nice if you made the map a bit bigger and added in some different kind of attacks, to add some more variety to the game
It would be cool if the penny rolled (rotated on the z axis) when it moved!
@tero-pulkkinen I'm sorry if the game was difficult! I never know what's the right amount of challenge, I don't want it to be too easy either... ^^' I just make sure it is challenging enough for me, but I guess it's a lot easier for me since I'm so used to playing it now. Thank you for the feedback!
@antztakeover Yeah, that's not a cheat, the barrier is supposed to keep the enemies out. It's helpful if you're being chased by a bunch of enemies you couldn't take on otherwise. I see how it could be a bit OP though... ^^
@vladirien Good idea, I could implement that if I make another patch for the game ^^
@aitalvasilev Yeah, one of my friends who loves breaking games managed to increase attack range to thousands (I had accidentally multiplied the range by 1.1 per upgrade instead of adding 0.1) so he could stand in the corner and hit every enemy on the map :laughing: I think the best way to become overpowered is to invest into life steal a lot. But yeah I agree with you that the upgrade prices might be a bit steep. Stuff like that takes a lot of playtesting and modifying, but it's certainly something I could change in a future patch :)
@toasteater Normal attacks are a bit hard before you buy range upgrades. Range + knockback with the regular attack is very good! I personally use a mix of both attacks so I don't know which one is best to upgrade
@gus-the-shark Life steal doesn't steal life each time you hit an enemy, it just increases the amount of lives the enemy drops when it dies. If it stole hearts for each hit it would be unbalanced because it'd be more efficient to deal as little damage as possible. For the range and knockback, you just have to upgrade 3 or 4 times before it's noticable, the increase is small but very useful!
@skoggy The very first sentence that was typed out was "ESC to skip"
@mateusboga Yeah you're right, I drew everything in a 16x16 resolution but then realized some things were too small when I put them into the game and had to scale them up, thus the differing resolutions. In the future I will try to make sure the size is more accurate to begin with to avoid that problem!
@randomphantom The first sentence that got typed out was "ESC to skip". Apparently people are missing that part??
Aww the graphics are adorable!! I've never seen such a cute spaghetti monster!
I love how there are old people being run over all the time. Hilarious! And the artwork is really pretty!
Very cute game, the art was pretty, and I also liked the plot twist at the end!
Very nice game! The music is simple but fits the game well, and there's something about those button click sounds that is really satisfying :P And great job on making so many different events!
Cool idea! I wish the turrets shot a bit faster, because they keep missing the enemies
The shooting is very satisfying, I don't quite understand what this has to do with the theme though? But still, nice work!
The graphics are really well-made! The controls are smooth, and the sound effects are nice too. I fell off the map and died because I didn't see where I was supposed to go next and jumped down a hole. Maybe you could add something like signs that point to where you should go when it's a bit unclear?
Really fun game! The sound effects and music is nice, and I like Touhou games so this gameplay appeals to me ^^
Good game! Very straightforward and easy to understand, fun to play, and the graphics look nice!
Really nice game! I liked the art/animations and the soul drop effect, it looked very cool!
Oh, wow. I'll have to give this top scores in everything! Really innovative and strangely addicting. Outstanding!
Woah, how did you have time for all this? This is one of the most unique ludum dare games I'v played! Very funny, I liked the audio, the controls during the katamari damacy like minigame were a bit tricky, sometimes you could get the camera stuck outside the walls
Oh, if only I had friends, then I'd play this. It must be hard getting ratings since it requires friends + controllers which not everyone has. But even if I haven't played this I have to say it looks really fun and innovative, and the graphics are pretty nice too! Great job!
This was really really cool! I loved this mechanic, the narration & setting reminded me a bit of the Stanley Parable. Mouse sensitivity was a bit too high. I got to the part where the band was about to split up, and I talked to the Coolio guy but couldn't find a way to progress.
@madalaski Ohh right Coolio did mention that, it didn't register for me that I was supposed to talk to Martin because I AM Martin, so I thought any information he'd have would already be known to me ^^' My mistake sorry
Mae & Gregg!!! :O
This was a really fun and unique rhythm game, it was a bit hard to hit the correct buttons sometimes but I think this would be very nice ported for phone with several levels, or alternatively make the buttons correspond to keys instead of using the mouse. The sound and artwork is really nice!
I loved this game so much! The artwork is so beautiful, the music fits really nicely and all the speaking sounds are funny and sound good. This is my favorite LD46 game so far!
The sheep's face and eating animation gets humor points from me haha :D This is a pretty interesting mechanic and I like the artstyle, good job!
Funny and entertaining game! It was short yet it was able to build suspense well :)
Very fun idea, I wish the screen was a bit bigger so I had more space to move around in. It's fun hitting the mice but you can't do it more than twice in a row, then the mouse escapes, so I always lose more points than I gain
This was really good, I loved the different minigames you implemented, it kept the game interesting throughout. The ending was unexpected and hit hard so it gets a perfect mood score from me UWU
It's fun, quite difficult, the graphics are really good but the music loop is too short so it gets very repetitive
Really cute game, I loved the graphics and music! Not a fan of the kissing sound effects but that may just be me haha
I made it over a minute and a half, very nice atmosphere and artwork
Thought this was a jam entry, that's seriously insane how polished you managed to make this game in such a short amount of time all by yourself!
This is very fun!! I really like the audio too. I wish I could jump, even though that wouldn't serve any purpose, I just like to be able to jump :D I got 224 points. You all did a very great job!
Although the gameplay is simple, I can see you put a lot of effort into different visual & audio effects which is very cool and makes it look very polished
After a while the story doesn't progress. The last choice was that a final soul would be sacrificed in order for "her" to come back but then nothing happened...?
(Hey I recognise you from the LD server!) Very good artwork, some added ambient music would improve the mood a bit.
The artwork is really good, nice job ^^
I agree this would make a nice phone game! It's very hard to time the platforms, but its fun to see the character bounce away so far. The customization menu is also a nice touch
Amazing graphics and music, love the different palettes
Nice artstyle, the gameplay is simple but fun, I also really liked the music, but the speech sound effect is a little harsh. Also you accidentally uploaded the Development build
Oh nvm just realized you mentioned this in the description
@wolfier it does have an info tab in-game
@bootygangdisciple Do you mean you didn't have enough or was there a bug where you lost when you weren't supposed to?
@naughtybird It's written in the info tab, you just need to keep their happiness (the heart symbol) at max and upload pictures of them
@svdvorak Aw that's too bad, glad you played it long enough to see the expansions though ^^
@picusbgames Haha I'm glad you both liked it! I can totally see an alternative version with dogs instead, that sounds fun :P
Really love the graphics, the music fits very nicely too!
Wow the art is so pretty! Didn't manage to save the dragon sadly :(
遊びはちょっと遅くてつまらないだけど、本当にきれいです、そして面白いイデアです。ゲームをもっと楽しいにするために、何かを足すのが要りますよね
Getting cans to land on the ground was easy, but it was really difficult to recycle or make them land with the right side up, so I only got 141 score. Really fun game!
I wanna date Cornelius damn he's so fine :(
Really beautiful game, the story was well written and the art looks amazing too
Agree with above comments saying it'd make a great mobile game
The graphics are really good, wish you could move while attacking, right now the player moves forward automatically which makes it really difficult to control
This was fun, I'm not sure if there's a way to beat the game but I did max out both my meters
Wooow, this was very fun! I really loved the graphics (although the text font was so wide that it was hard for me to read). I loved the RGB slider, so fun. It was just difficult because the plant took damage as soon as sliders started changing, maybe give some time like 2 seconds to adjust the slider before the plant starts taking damage. I still managed to beat the game on the first try though :)
The platforming seems fun too but the flowers shoot too fast so I don't have time to heal without getting shot (Didn't get very far...) Maybe add some checkpoints so you don't have to restart the whole thing if you're bad at the game like me :P Also the controls at the start get cut off from the screen if you jump then go back down, so maybe move those a little. Other than that though I love the art and animations and the game is very nice
I agree it would have been cool to see the creature grow more, I got past the hatching part and played for quite a while longer, the main thing I would have liked is a score that increases over time, so you know how well you did. I liked the screenshake but sometimes it was a bit much
I love the character animation! Only thing I'd change is make the character's walk just ever so slightly faster. Well done ^^
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do, if I hover the mouse near the top it shows some boxes but there's nothing on them
The crowd reactions can be a bit unpredictable (for example Herenven did not like that I said the king was compassionate, I chose that because the city was founded to welcome the opressed so it made sense, and the dragon slayer camp didn't like that I chose courage) but I like the idea a lot, it feels unique. This would be fitting as a little minigame as part of a larger game about traveling between cities. The artwork is very well done and the music fits nicely!
The graphics are amazing, gameplay feels a little buggy though (strange timing with hitting enemies, sometimes camera clips through ground even though I didn't do anything) and I also wish the player was able to take more than one hit. Still a very cool idea for a fighting mechanic, I like it
This is very cool, I like the random appearance generator you did, for being new to game development as you said this is super impressive. Great job!
I really liked this entry, the mechanic was fun enough to keep me playing through the whole game. I beat it in 11 mins 30 seconds ^^
Graphics were really nice, a bit too challenging I think, I couldn't even make it past 2 days
It's a nice game and the planet looks very good, I stopped playing though because the difficulty level didn't seem to be increasing and it was too easy. I think also a different sound effect for the asteroids could be nice
Cool concept, pretty challenging, I couldn't make it to the end :p Love the audio
Funny game, sound effects could be toned down a little, they were kinda harsh
I really like the detail you put into the menu with the selected text shaking and screen transitions! The graphics are very nice. Felt like the colliders were a bit wonky sometimes but overall very solid entry
Really cool concept! It felt very trippy to play with the gravity changing all the time, I think rather than being to walk up and down walls it would be a bit easier to stay coordinated if the player rotation changed to match the new gravity, so you always stand on the ground. The art and audio is very nice ^^
The map is nice and big! But because its so big it takes a long time to traverse which makes it really punishing when you lose. After collecting half of the items on the list its not really fun to have to restart, so maybe respawning the player but letting them keep their items would be better?
Really like the player animation, it looks goofy hehe
meatballs flying in space
Despite using only default assets the amount of effects you added makes the style fit really well and feel polished. I thought some of the projectiles were a bit too fast and hard to dodge, idk how far I got but I didn't win at least.
I really like this concept! The platforming controls arent great though, for example the human and frog jumps are way too fast which makes it a bit difficult to use. The dialogue at the start was fun, I like the line "what a fabulous disrespect" heheh. Would be nice if there was a cutscene at the end too!
Love the usage of recorded videos at the start! Struggled a bit with drag-dropping the ld game file into the main folder for some reason. Overall really fun game, good job!
Ooh, your game has a similar approach to ours! ^^ Despite the guide written on the paper I still found it a bit difficult to figure out what to do except chop the wood and walk around, sometimes it would play the end screen and sometimes it would send me back to the main menu, wasn't sure what it was caused by, so some game over screen with a hint could be helpful!
