Hey ! I reeeally want to play your game and it seems it's not working for mac, would it be possible to do something ?
This was soooo much fun ! Definitly the game I played the most in this jam. When I realized items could be picked from the box, my my, I did spent some time on your game, thank you for that, and well done ! Here's a fish : Capture dâeÌcran 2018-12-05 aÌ 21.10.38 copie.png
@flauschzelle Yes please, introduce this fish to the world !
Alright, the UI is totally awesome ! Too bad it's not finished, I really would have played it, just for the adventure it looks like !
@pxlucasf, on wich platform/build are you playing ? Music should be here (and the latest build from 2 minutes ago is available). Thanks you so so much for your the nice comments ! Don't know yet if we'll continue developing, but we'll let you know :) @captainweeaboo, sorry to hear the mix doesn't work for you, and yeah, the cards are reaaaally too fast for anyone to read ! But if you're willing to make some sacrifices, you can take the time to read it (sometimes it worth it) ;) @binarylynx, aaaaaand it's here ! @carbonara, @badosz, @owlycode, thank you so much for your comments !!!
@mortus understandable it is ! Thanks for your comment and reporting that bug, our programer will take a look at it.
However, in the talent tree you can buy two more units for a total of 5 so you can save more lives ^^ @theonethatneverwas thank you, it's heart warming âș
Nice one, nicely balanced. I wished there were more different events, so that would last longer and be less repetitive. I really like the designs of the goblins, and the little stories the objects tell (can that object be useful ? what for ? (except of course for the food, water and weapons ^^)) Nice job !
This is a good one ! Even if the puzzle game is not revolutionary, it's nicely done, used, adapted and developed, and it fit well to the theme. I like the fact that the sacrifice is part of the gameplay, and not a pretext for a runner (it can have its qualities but doesn't fit so well to the theme in my point of view). So yeah, well done, I had a lot of focused fun :)
PS : the indications were a little too fast, I had to screenshot it. I don't know if it's wanted, but maybe it could reappear when pressing the reset button ?
I had fun trying to guess what would be what, and seeing Archibald Snobbish sad ! Good use of the theme, it's a nice little game Still have the music stuck in my mind though x)
That was definitely fun ! I sacrified more than 400 innocents babies (always shoot two just in case that sneaky dog wouldn't be alone), wandering when a new map will show up ^^ And I died. Too bad it's a bit repetitive, but well done ! It's quite stressing thanks to the brutal accelerations, the art is minimalist but effective and kind of cute, and I love the city music, so retro. Nice entry !
Really love the graphics and the nostalgic mood, will you do a web or mac version ? I'd love to play !
Hey there! I'd really like to play your game, but the mac build doesn't seem to work... in ultra low there's only a all blue screen, and in ultra, I just can't move or do anything. Is there a solution ?
Ooopsie ! This game was really fun and the sound of the running pig will haunt my nightmare for a while ! Thank for the experience of being a piggybank !
Nice one ! I had fun trying to save the world, but couldn't get to Mr Evil, and I don't know how I could have gone faster than I did. The world ends after the 3 scums ^^ Having long dialbox is interesting because of the urgency there is, but I regret not seeing the time passing at all times. Anyway nice entry, and bravo !
@skalex that's what I did, but no matter how hard I tried, the minute was over just after I gave the password to the thugs...
@skalex Oh neat ! Thank you
Good concept and good execution ! The music is very well chosen, and graphics are simple but efficient. I definitely want more levels. Nice job guys !
Wanna see a wizard garden hum ? This was so addictive, I got to 3600 twice and wanted more. Too bad the interface isn't finished, it breaks the immersion a bit but this is a pretty amazing job for one person. The difference of pixel size for the wizard isn't a problem at all, the spell effects and particles really brings it together. Well done !
Haha, very good and fun use of the theme ! Nice outcome, but repetitive, I really wish I would play more. Maybe different "levels" to make the challenge a bit different ? Don't know. But for a compo, this is still really impressive, good job !! :)
Hahahaha, you got me at the end ! Still in the theme right ? Yes it is !
Alright, there's a lot to say about this game and it's a very good first point. :) I had a lot of fun protecting the tree from the elements and hungry insects, though I'm kind of confused on the whole difficulty and on how long the game is. On normal speed the mood is really great - with the rythme of the music fitting perfectly the speed of the sun and moon and really make you feel the time flying by - but pretty easy, and also a bit long for a repetitive game in my opinion. To make it more challenging, it would have to be on double speed all the time, and even like that, it's really hard to loose. The double speed button is a neat idea though for this concept. To sum up, a game a bit harder and a bit shorter would have felt even more whole in my opinion. (Needless to say I'm being picky here, the game is great)
The art, music and overall mood are a perfect mix, it's relaxing and keeps you on alert at the same time, making the atmosphere nice job here ! (The leafs are soooo great). The UI is simple and efficient.
And my favorite part, the end, and how you manage with some magic trick to make something like that coherent with the first part of the game. My guess is the game is coherent in his "incoherence" : it's a clicking game, it's a quests game, it's an atmospheric game and now what ? It felt like torturing my keyboard when trying to press all the keys at the same time, and was really funny (not the torturing part of course but the no spoiling part).
Anyway thank you, you caught me off guard, it was fun and I very much enjoyed the all experience. A lot of work done here in 3 days, a bunch a congrats for you all. One of my favorite game for this jam
@deluxe-duck Yes I am pretty thrilled to hear that, this would have been great. Thanks for the great feedback !
@sharks @kittrangers @raffe @ldf-productions @ulcius @the-martijn @r3d3r @itsonrandom @mrhassansan @leokrechmer @greme66 @kiwii @x-c @weil @reiqy @sirllama @bentebent @kevin-h @sassykeys @arden @sanguis @digitom @hruy-gashaw Wow, it's time for a lot of thank yousss. First of all for playing our game, we already have more than 40 ratings, this is amazing. And especially for all the love you're giving us ! We were not sure when submitting the game if it would be too easy, too hard, understandable, and such, so knowing you liked the mechanics and the story is heart-warming. Thank you all again for your nice comments, we will try our best to play all of your games.
@freyzed Do you get stuck by the floors when climbing ?
Life on a rusty boat ain't easy ! (f**ing leaks) Sound effect, art direction and animations are great, and gives a 90's cartoon vibe that I liked a lot. I would have enjoyed a music to keep me immersed a little more. Though repetitive and really easy (except when you understand why the bucket is for for the first time) the game is fluid, and smooth and overall feels whole. Nice job !
I had a lot of fun clicking on all the buttons and felt like a hacker from a cheesy 80's movie. Nice Cluedo-like game, the interface is simple yet efficient and clear. I maybe wished there were enough space in the main page to see the all sentence, just to make it easier to change. I'm a little less fond of the character design, but giving it a voice is a nice touch ! Replayability is a really good point also. Nice game overall !
So there's an end... I didn't find the fourth instrument (am I that bad ?). Anyway this is a really nice game, I especially liked the colors and chill atmosphere, and the creatures are really cute in their style :) No needs to say that the work on the music and sounds is particularly good. AND it was so fun to wake up the creatures by hammering the keyboard ^^ Really good entry !
Hey ! I'm trying lo launch the game, but every time I click on start the game shuts down (I'm on Mac btw) ! I really like the menu though and I'd really like to play :)
Nice one ! The game feels complete, and you really want to keep them alive for this old (maybe nice) lady (which i wish didn't give too much money for a job I poorly done), the plants infos are actually very useful and the addition of the context before the "menu" card is a real nice touch !
Alright ! I like the concept, it's fun to feel like a parasite with no understanding of our world, and to be a human-playing-a-parasite-playing-an-animal. Et je rĂ©alise que vous ĂȘtes français, c'est merveilleux ^^ Vraiment bon design, c'est polish, les graphismes sont vraiment cohĂ©rents avec le concept et trĂšs efficace, et pour ne rien gĂącher, c'est drĂŽle. J'ai l'impression que c'est difficile d'ĂȘtre dĂ©couvert, les "mauvaises" dĂ©cisions entraĂźnant souvent la mort (non aboyer sur une voiture ne la fait pas s'arrĂȘter ^^). Bravo Ă vous !
Oooow ! Protect hooman from nightmares I must ! There's not a lot to say except that it would only need a few things to have a proper game such as feedbacks on when you touch the nightmares, one pixel size (too many different sizes here), maybe a score so we can see how far we go, and some sounds. It's a promising prototype though, I can imagine with no problem the fun I would have had with the game if it was finished. Good luck on your future jams ! :)
Really fun, nice balance and use of the theme. One progress bar for both the hunger and the hp is a good idea, and I just love the artistic direction and character design (the king animation is very expressive and fun). And it was just frustrating enough to be so slow, but hey, it's a turtle ! So good choice too ! Nice overall, good job !
@joscco is it a problem with your OS or with the game itself?
@joscco ah, we didn't manage to test it on mac, we'll come back to you when the problem is solved if you'd like @kobahawk that's an issue we didn't think of, that's on us too ^^ And thank you so much for your comment !
@yukimiitsuka Thank you for playing and for your comment, it means a lot to us because this is exactly what we wanted to make players feel. It's so nice to know that it worked !
Thank you all guys! <3 Your comments are "heart warming" if I may say so
@ocwal @joscco there is a new Mac build, if you'd like to try :) no certainty of it working though
Simple, efficient, really cute (I just love those little guys) and it loops flawlessly. Why ask for more ? It would totally work on me as a phone game. Thank you for this nice little moment :)
Great use of the music, it really fits ! Art style is on point and everything comes together really well. I had to force myself to stop trying to get a better score, nice entry !
@svkj Thank you for playing :) Not giving the keys that you don't longer need is intentional, so you have to watch your keyboard and try hard. But we understand that it can be frustrating ^^
@sdelay thanks you for the feedback about linux, and your nice comment !
Top notch ! Really nice atmosphere, art and music on point. Big plus : the satisfaction of seeing this house getting clean. Thanks for making household a lot more fun !
I think I experienced a bug, but maybe not, I don't know. The first fews heaps were packed as one box when thrown in the house (which allowed me to stack more so I won't complain). Anyway, nice entry, well polished. I really enjoyed playing it :)
Even though the font didn't really do it for me, I had a nice little time ! It kind of made me think of this story about the guy who exchanged things starting from a paper clip, and ended up with a house, except that in the game you get to keep the paper clip and all the other stuff ^^ Congrats on your first jam, I hope you'll do some more !
