LD39 — Running out of Power

DOHMIERE by Jesus Fermin Villar 2017-08-02T01:35:47Z

Hey Jesus, enjoyed the game! Here's some quick feedback:

Art was excellent (both graphics and sound), great mood and atmosphere. Animations on the protagonist were good as well. He felt fun to move around.

The game itself had several large bugs that have been mentioned above, such as:

- Chair getting stuck if you keep moving it to the left - Grabbing the trophy multiple times and breaking the window multiple times - Drain message staying after draining the tree

Additionally (just comments)

- The safe puzzle was rough. Since you can't guarantee your players will be familiar with your date format, you should consider letting the puzzle accept multiple dates in different date formats. Got stuck here for quite a while and ran into bugs while I was stuck causing me to restart.

- Seconding needing a proofreader, Twitter, Jam Discords, Slack, and Reddit are good for that.

- Small visuals bugs were jarring (clock getting to 4: 5 instead of 4:05, and the messages staying up forever), but not too distracting.

Nice take on the theme! I enjoyed playing.

I liked it! General aesthetic was great and the game was challenging and fun. I liked linking power nodes to the ship using the minimum amount of wires as a general mechanic.

Some notes:

- Consider labeling resource nodes like the power nodes are - I didn't understand what they were until several minutes in the game. - Having the 'you win!' screen flash up no matter where you are in the world when the ship is filled is a little jarring. I was racing to get back to the ship before the timer when I ended up filling up the ship and immediately won. Cut all the tension out of running back.

Thanks! We will closer to the end of the rating period - it's a puzzle game so we'd like to see if people can figure out the puzzles themselves before we post a playthrough.

Known bug: In the first room (battery on a table), occasionally the battery won't spawn for some reason. Wave your arms around to drain the battery and redo the level if that happens!
