The objective wasn't super clear. I'd add instructions. The controls were super jumpy and I had no clue how they worked or the mechanics of the game. There was no goal or instruction. No points. The art was super programmer art if that was better the gameplay would sort of be worth overlooking but not in this instance. Definitely good practice, try again next year and take all these tips into consideration.
The art is super good, I love it. The concept is super cool, and The mix of 2D and 3D is pretty awesome but the only issue with that is often your dude can't tell where you want to shoot and it makes it super difficult to kill dudes sometime and messes up the functionality. But otherwise super nice bro good job!
Took me a minute to figure out the controls, but after that I got sucked in pretty quick trying to keep that guy in the air π
Didn't really understand the concept, but I imagine it'd be more fun online or with friends. Nice puzzle!
Super nice art bro, I love it. But the gameplay isn't super engaging, and I lost interest after like 5-10 minutes. But the robot is a pretty funny character, overall goodjob homie!
One of the best Ludum Dare games I have ever played, no question. Had me captivated for hours and hours even solo after everyone got offline. THATS RIGHT, ITS MULTIPLAYER! Definitely takes a little to get used to, but it takes the insane difficulties of games like Star Citizen and Eve with all the fun and roles. And the fact you made it within 72 hours and you're not a professional game dev is insane This should win. I will willing take a loss this dare just for you to win. This is fantastic. The detail and quality immersive experience. Reminds me a little of old school text games too but the fact you can literally have a inner planetary ecosystem and a wider multi-planetary ecosystem and have people on each planet stabilizing ecosystems and making materials for other ecosystems and we all work together is super cool. You can even fly around space. I wish the had a concurrent database because it's pretty difficult solo, it's meant to be multiplayer! We need to get a group of 5-20 stable players for sure. I LOVE IT. I wish it could be continued into development. 1500000000/10 stars. Keep up the good work whatever you do bro, I know you'll succeed.
The fact you weren't feeling well and left the game in it's current state is suprising by how well done it is. Despite the fact you don't really have a goal it's super fun just to watch the death mechanics and it's really nicely made, the explosion death and the blood and the characters are all super nicely done. Super cool concept I wish I could've seen a finished version. But after around round 30 the platform stop randomly changing, but before that it's such a cool feature. Awesome job bro! Definitely one of the best games I've played so far I'm so surprised.
Super hard to beat any levels, had a hard enough time with one then they spawned two on me π Still a super nice idea, decent mechanics although the bots have better shoot systems than we do. But nice art, keep it up bro!

Sorry bro game is broke, it's not against compo rules to publish an update fixing game breaking bugs as long as you don't add features! I'd recommend fixing this soon and reuploading.
Nice little game, only about 5 minutes or less but definitely could see more levels. Nice artwork.
I'm a classic gamer where if the concept is too much to grasp or there's too much to remember and it makes it more work than fun, then I just won't play it. And I can tell by @massassen comment alone there are going to be plenty more people who don't understand or won't give it a shot because it's too difficult. Just seeing the bar minigame alone and knowing I had do 2 other things while running that was going to be impossible to remember and do. Super sad because the concept is incredible and the art is INSANELY amazing. I wish the gameplay was a little more streamlined so it a more wide audience would enjoy it. Nice job anyway, I'm sure there'll still be people who enjoy it.
Super interesting concept, great execution. Goofy art π Only issue is I didn't understand the plank circle being red I thought I had to put my dude there because everything else also gets red when you need to do something so I ended up kicking one dude off making it super hard to sail with only two dudes. So at port one I bought another sailor and I got robbed, got no sailor but lost the money from it. Bought drinks but it was only a liter and that got used in like a millisecond so i'd recommend making resources worth a little more. But all in all super fun, now that I totally understand it, i'll give it a second go. Good job bro!
Cool concept, dope art. Couple bugs in the web version, and not super entertaining but all in all a good game just not my personal preference. Good job!
Game was unplayable due to the mouse issues on the web player. Unfortunate because it looked like fantastic 3D art and a cool concept.
Took me a second, but pretty cool game play. Nice programmer art, cool concept.
@sayumeki Thank you for the feedback! The slowdown randomly across the map is due just because of the version of Construct I was using there's some issues in the older versions with the scrolling map. But yep, you just gain money passively. But i'll take your notes into consideration! There was a lot more I wanted to do, some of which you mentioned, maybe i'll update in the future or turn it into a private project. Hope you enjoyed it!
@thatothernerd Yeah, there are a lot more features I wish I had more time to implement. Jobs, clothes, more animals. But I did as much as I could in the time given. Thank you for the feedback!
@shouji Thank you for playing and thanks for the feedback! I was honestly thinking about turning it into a project so I had more time to work on the bugs and features I wanted to implement but didn't have much time to. Hope you enjoyed!
@cheesepencil I paid for the music, and it was made by a fellow ludum dare member during the 48 hour challenge so technically not against any rules! Thank you for your input though, I hope you enjoyed it!
@mhykah Thank you for the input! I'll remember that for next time, hope you enjoyed!
@psychic-ash Thank you for the detaile review brother! Glad you enjoyed.
@ironygames Haha, sarcasm or do you really like the transparent trees? But thank you, glad you enjoyed it! I will definitely take your review into consideration moving forward!
@scintillae-creations Thank you so much! It was a daunting task, but I did it! And I didn't opt out for music/sound because the rest of the audio was made by me homemade and I'm super proud of it, and as far as I was concerned it wasn't an issue because a) I paid for the license b) it was made during ludum dare by another participant for ludum dare entries, so it wasn't made outside the compo time.
@skelleroznik Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and had a good time playing!
@projectaroid I'm so glad I finished, it was a super rewarding experience. Glad you had fun.
@kate90 Thank you for your input! I'm glad you could enjoy what I could do in such a small time. I definitely wish I had more time to implement more features and better code procedures.
@ryzy27 Haha I'm glad you had fun. This is such a loving comment though you have no clue how much it means having someone say they could play one of my games for HOURS if it was more polished and more mechanics/features/ect were added. Thank you!
@symnel Thank you for taking the time to play my game, I wish I could've added more features like you mentioned but it was a formidable task. I only got this far, but I'm still super proud. Definitely could've done way more with more time given though. Thanks again!
@louiejams I'm glad you liked my game! And the art haha, I used to watch a ton of cartoons as a kid so it's my favorite style for sure. But thank you for the recommendations, I will definitely keep them in mind for the future! But haha, I actually did notice that bug, it's just how I have my layers stacked I forgot to fix that, easy fix that i'll definitely remember next time. Thanks again for playing, and thank you for the feedback!
The player takes damage even when no monsters are near which sucks I can't even get one full light source before dying. Cool concept and good programmer art though!
Super dope, reminds me of balloon tower defense all day long. Nice little 8-bit graphics, however the world freezes on the 2nd level and I don't know what to do past that.
Super funny, the only entry that's kept me entertained for 5+ minutes so far. Nice artwork, wild physics. Keep up the good work bro.
Cool concept, pretty decent 8Bit art. But the meters are pretty weird to control.
Amazing job for your 2nd ludum dare. Awesome little 8-bit graphics, some nice audio, and a good concept. Had me playing for a while got to level 6. Definitely more intricate than other tower defense entries!
Sadly, got nothing but a black screen with the bouncing heart/dragon thing in the middle ):
Not the most seamless mechanics and controls, definitely weird using mouse, space bar, arrow keys, and letters on the keyboard. Recommend putting them closer together or something, I don't have 10 inch fingers to play with. But the falling art is funny, just the game play isn't very entertaining because it takes so much work to perfect getting to the food and the drinks that either way the bar goes down. Cool concept though.
Super cool 3D art, sadly too laggy for me to do anything. My duck just freezes and unfreezes looking a different way and I can't do anything. Nice concept though.
This was honestly the concept I was thinking about. I went with just a normal pet simulator instead, but it's crazy how close related our ideas were and how well your execution was. Nice art, cool mechanics.
Some cool 8-bit art but for anyone who doesn't have any bar tending skills and can remember drink names and mixes it's pretty difficult and boring.
@wilson-taylor Actually no I didn't, I'm about to try it out again! Thanks for the tip
Still definitely takes some skill! Much better now knowing I have a key I can access but I still can't get past 2-3 drinks on easy mode, the timer goes down sooo quick π Much more fun now that I have an idea what I'm doing,
what.png This UI is completely brain scrambling, makes everything so confusing. And what is the keyboard layout, never in my life of a gamer have I seen something so weird and difficult. I literally have to play with my keyboard like sideways and stretch my fingers so far. Weird. Made the game play unenjoyable I was so focused on what I was clicking and actually clicking over the whole game and all the mechanics.
Super nice art, fun gameplay, cool concept! Only problem think I don't love is that evertime you lose you have to refresh, but otherwise very nice!
Wow, I never imagined a kitty wouldn't like getting poked by spikes! But that cute little guy kept me entertained than I thought. I thought i'd only play for 30 seconds at first glance, but actually spent a good 5-10 minutes trying to get higher. Art could be better but still cute, and the concept is super fun! Good job bro
Do you have to git this project? Or do what to complile? I recommend posting on itch.io
Super fun gameplay, nice concept, cool art. Definitely got my blood pumping running back to the beginning getting lit up by guard lights π Only thing I noticed was some slight tile clipping up by the stop signs in level one. But all in all super good!
The controls are pretty rough, but do-able. The tough part the enemies mechanics, once they all swarm you, you get stuck no matter what and destroy you before you can kill all four everytime. Also don't understand the save/load system works since there doesn't seem to be anyway to save. Cool concept though. Good job all in all.
Super cool twist on the classic frogger but definitely needs some polishing. First level was easy got all the ducks back. Level two however I grabbed 5 out of 4 ducks so it like broke the number or something because nothing happened the level didn't end, but I went into the pond so it changed it level and then dragged my character across the screen into a hole or something and I died. Wierd. But nice art, cute little ducks, cool concept. Good job!
Super cute 8-Bit art, good concept, well done. Only thing I'd recommed is making the viewport of the shadow more wide because once that dude leaves you can't see him so if you miss his direction it's game over, but that might be intentional to make it little more difficult and you have to actually focus. Good job bro!
Congrats on your first entry! Definitely better than mosts first, however I didn't completely understand the game play or concept, but some nice art! Keep it up bro, hope to see you again next year.
Super amazing art! Great idea, and great gameplay for your first month of developing and your first game! Congrats, keep it up!
link.png
I went straight to your profile to see if the link was just invalid, but there are no published projects under this account. So you either linked the wrong account or did not make that game page public yet or published it yet. I recommend fixing this soon!
I'm not exactly sure what the point of the game is, my character doesn't move. All I can do is chuck the baby and it dies no matter what ): Cute art though
Aw ): Broken link, sounded like such a cool idea.
Cool concept, really wanted to play the dinosaur you troll π But cool art, the otter gameplay got boring after I figured out what everything was with the max upgrades there's nothing to cause me to lose, so I just kept eating fish and shells and running away from cars and stuff. I figured by the description, that humans would check me for parasites at random times.
Cute art and pretty decent movement. Cool concept!
Haha, this was a lot more fun than I expected. The irony of the game makes the gameplay > artwork. Super good idea, good job bro.
It's a pretty fun game. Took me a while but I beat it. Pretty thorough upgrade system.
This is a pretty cool idea. However it's a shame to have the main controls be the mic, as a lot of microphones are low quality and have a lot of feedback. This makes it hard to control the bird on voice alone like the game requires. I can't fly low enough because the feedback is always keeping the bird high. This could probably be solved with sensitivity controls. But still a cool idea nonetheless. Never seen a game use microphone as controls before which is cool. The art also was super clean and cool. All in all, a cool game and a cool idea.
Cool 8Bit Graphics. However, I couldn't understand the point of the game or the controls really. I made a higher score just randomly spam clicking buttons than when I actually tried to figure it out. Maybe add a controls list or better explain the point of the game. Still a good entry.
Played for about 10 minutes and didn't really understand the point of the game or the objective or the controls. Just hurt my eyes staring at it for so long. Cool music though
@dhim No and I tried to use the squint setting and could only see 2 colors when it said you should be able to see three. Not sure if it's my eyes or what
This game was pretty fun and the art was cool. However the maneuvering was pretty difficult. Going right should flip the character, but instead you have to go upside down which makes things pretty difficult. Then when you find stuff on the radar, it's pretty difficult to grab them and I just ended up going in circles. And like @barelyevengames said, it's pretty difficult to make money for upgrades past a certain point at which point it's more profitable just to nosedive and go as deep as you can. Sadly I couldn't find the plastic bag. But still a pretty cool idea nonetheless.
Missing your links bud
Awesome graphics, lighting, and atmosphere. Cool idea. I never made it to the end, not sure if it's possible, but I like the level design. Sick game.
Link isn't working boss you probably have to set it to public
Doesn't work sadly, probably have to make the game public
Congrats on your first compo entry! It's super well done for your first time. I like how it gets kinda stressful the more boosts you get and the faster you go. At first I thought it was super simple but then the faster I went the harder it got. Nice sound effects too. Good job.
Like @RefraX295 already pointed out I get βAccess deniedβ on the Google Drive link. You have to set it to public
Yeah sadly JAVA PATH is not set by default even after installing Java on Windows, so might be harder for newer people to play. But otherwise, it's a pretty cool game! Great audio. Good job :)
Yo this game is dope! I usually stay away from Downloadable games just because it's a hassle, but after seeing the pictures I knew I had to download it. The atmosphere is great, the 3D models are awesome. I love the whole vibe. It kind of reminds me of Doom/Quake, with some other games mixed in. I also like how you had a VHS tape of the game in the game lol, meta.
Only thing I will mention, is Windows gave me a Windows Smart Screen warning about "unknown publisher". I scanned on Virus Total and there's no issues at all, but maybe I would recommend adding some publishing information when exporting and maybe that'd help? Because anytime someone plays they have to click "Run anyway" and for non-techy people it's kind of sus. Amazing game though, good job!
Great composure for the audio :p I think i hear a hint of Halloween/Friday the 13th at some point or maybe Dead Rising? I can't remember but sounds super familiar. Gameplay was super fun, it got hardddd past the fourth level though xD Maybe I'm just bad. Artwork was top notch too! Good job :)
@arscene Thanks for playing the game! Yeah I made the movement a little slow so the game didn't go too fast, otherwise it'd be beatable in about 2 minutes or less. And i'm not sure what you mean by only 1 direction is registered? Should have animations for 3 different directions ( didn't finish walking downwards animations ), and you should be able to move up, down, left, and right, all with animations. Also crap! The monster disappears because I forgot to set persistence on it.... too late now. But yeah you just talk to the monster after you beat the game lol, there's not much else to it. He has about 25 dialogues and you just talk to him. Thanks for playing!
@arscene Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah i set it up so there was only 4 directional instead of 8 directional movement. ( Left, Right, Up, Down instead of Up, Up Diagonals, Down, Down Diagonals, Left, Left Diagonals, Right, Right Diagonals. ) Was just easier. Thanks again :)
Thanks for playing! Yeah people seem to keep mentioning that, I just set it at 4 so I had less animations to do, and didn't even get done with those 4 animations, so 8 diagonally would've been insanely hard with the time crunch. Understandable point though!
Thank you so much! :) I'm glad you liked it, I worked really hard on the atmosphere and art and music even more so than the game function itself, because I just wanted it to feel really cool even though the game itself is super simple. Thanks for playing!
@0xwavy Thanks a lot! My previous entries were more gameplay loops with crappy art, so for this year I definitely wanted to focus on the art and atmosphere and music a lot more, so definitely accomplished that I hope :) And hmm weird, I know animations are a little broken if you move during interactions but didn't know the items actually disappeared :( Thanks for playing though!
@frib Thank you! My previous entries were more gameplay loops with crappy art, so for this year I definitely wanted to focus on the art and atmosphere and music a lot more, so definitely accomplished that I hope :) I definitely wish i had more time to add some more core mechanics, but spent literally until there was only 30 minutes left finishing the art and animations haha. Thank you for playing!
@rjerez192 Thanks! The backgrounds actually for the most part are pixel art too, but It was my first time doing pixel art so they vary between 16 bit and 128 bit for the backgrounds haha, i wasn't very good at keeping everything the same pixel ratio, so backgrounds look smoother. Also the lighting effects in the game make it darker and harder to see ( which is the point ), but if those effects were removed you could probably see the background pixelation better. But alas, it was fun to make! Thank you so much for playing, hopefully next year I'll have more time for some core mechanics :P :)
@ab0303 Thank you for playing and for the feedback! :)
@rjerez192 Haha, well thanks for playing!
@error Yeah I feel you. I wanted the walking slow otherwise the game would've been like 1 minute to beat. But a lot of people agree with you. But thanks for playing and for the feedback!
Thank you so much @arowx ! But yeah seems to be a few bugs here and there sadly. Also once the monster appears you just talk to him that's about it haha. Thanks for playing though :)
Hey that was cool! Feels like tetris, but with more of a goal instead of just stacking blocks. Very fun. Didn't understand the first time that the tools were supposed to be paired too, just thought they were bonuses ( i only skimmed the tutorial :p ) But got the hang of it the second round and beat it ( i think? A+ ). Overall very good, only improvement I would make is audio because it was a little repetitive and got tiresome fast, but maybe that's just me :p Good job!
Dash mechanic is awesome! Art is really cool too. Audio is funny, all i hear is someone blowing into a cup xD Really well done though, good job!
Yo that broccoli butt is too damn sexy. This reminds me of Saints Row honestly. Funny as hell. Good job!
Good game! The models made me rofl, the sound was great, and gameplay was tip top shape. No complaints. Good job! :)
Haha that was hectic alright. I've never rushed for a bushel of apples before. I love the pixel art!
It's so cool to customize battleships and pirate the enemies! I did have a lottt of collision bugs though, either colliding with an enemy and getting perma-stuck, or trying to attach blocks/cannons and they would not attach no matter where or what direction but instead would send me launching. But besides those minor physics bugs, it's super fun to play! Great job :)
