This game feels creepy, and fits the mood of being alone very well. It really gets most brutal, when you realize that having someone with you sometimes is not enough to change the feeling.
What I did not like, is that sometimes the end comes already in the first room. This makes the game feel very anticlimatic.
I loved the voice over, made me laugh a lot :)
I like the game. However it is frustrating at times, because it is extremely hard to see everything and because I could not really figure out how and when the boulders move, which stopped me in the fourth level or so. But I liked the mood you created and think the mechanic makes for an interesting game.
I really like the idea, that you need to be close to that person but not too much. It feels very innovative. Only it is very hard to figure out when you are in the proper radius. Some indication (maybe with ambient light would have been great).
The sounds also fit very well and the graphics is very impressive for a two day project.
Nice game, although it is extremely hard, I am always too slow :)
Your really created a nice mood of being alone. At the beginning I loved everything. At the end of the game the music becomes really annoying however. A little more lengthy sound loop might have been awesome.
Nice humorous game. I love how you are basically a coupler of planets, solar systems, etc.
Thank you for your comment on the music. At first I did not even intend to create any, but then i decided that there needed to be some to emphasize the sad mood.
I added a short gameplay video. Hope some of you still have some time to watch it and give me feedback. Thank you :)
Problem is, I used ARC not realizing that it is only available on Lion :(
I liked the game. It is fun to play. However it is annoying that you sometimes are already almost killed before you can even start the game. Also it is hard to see which tiles are meant for walking and which are obstacles.
Wow the game is really cool. I liked the graphics and the story. Also flying through space was pretty fun. I am not sure what hitting those robots too often would have done however. The only thing that I did not like, is that the music gets very annoying quickly.
Nice graphics and animation. However I think it is almost impossible to attack the enemies without dying yourself. Is there a trick? I always tried just walking into them, which killed them after some time.
I really liked the game. The music and darkening colors add considerably to the mood of it. With the graphics I implemented a similar effect in my game. However yours has a considerably happier ending. Thumbs up :)
I love the graphics and the player character. Unfortunately the world feels way too large and I could not figure out what to do.
My screen always stays completely blank (Firefox and Safari on MacOSX Lion)
At first I didn't get the controls thought the mouse was for shooting only not also for walking direction. However the game is very fun to play as soon as you understand the rules. But I am also not Rambo :D
It kinda is funny to throw stuff at the bullies, but the controls react a bit slow. Also how do you throw up and down, not only left and right?
The controls are more than difficult. I basically always just drop down to earth. But graphics look great, and the basic idea is nice. With some work on the controls it could be a lot of fun.
A whole little adventure game in one screen is a really nice idea. You even have different puzzles to solve etc. However I would have preferred, if the layout of the adventure would make a bit more sense. As it is you just had to stumble along like a clueless idiot and hope you would discover what you were looking for. Also can I already give the books to the grandma? I felt really bad for keeping them... But in general, I really liked the idea and dialogues of the game
I love every bit of it. The zombies especially, those evil bastards. No honestly enjoyed the experience, thanks for the save points.
The game seems to be fun, but it is hard to figure out how many resources you have and how to spend them, how you earn them. Also I never really understood how my decisions influence the game. Furthermore, how do I conquer a country not simply get some resources from attacking? Lastly, should all armies be destroyed with every battle?
Overall nice, but I did not think it followed the theme :(
The game is simple and fun. Sometimes it is impossible to escape a situation, but maybe you just should not go there. I like the simplistic aesthetics.
The game looks totally cool. It is also fun to play and even has controller support. Congrats, especially because you made three other ones and this one still turns out so well.
I love the art style. The sheep and the blue enemies are extremely cute. The game itself however is extremely hard and punishing. Especially when some round directly kill you of with an enemy in front of your nose. But still a very nice entry.
The lights look really awesome. Controls are good. It is a nice variation of the original game.
The game was nice, but I did not like the guess work. Sometimes a part of the hint was hidden behind a flag. But still nice and unique in many ways. I liked the nice piano music, the bad one however urgs :(
Funny fruits with great character. Took me a bit to understand the game at first.
Sets a nice mood. Dying in a game like this however felt wrong to me, especially there is no real way to know what behavior is dangerous.
I really like the game, battling the enemies was fun. Especially with the weapons upgrade it already felt like a complete game. For a jam this entry is already very polished. I only felt that the dialog in the beginning is too long.
The heart beat sound is well done, would be great if it varied a bit in speed together with the story. The animations of the butterflies and heart look stunning.
Overall the game has a nice idea. However it takes really long, so I really only tried out one mood. It could also be fun if you had different goals for different people in the house hold. For example you try to haunt the mother, but please her children...
The game is a bit difficult to control. Especially at some point it got incredibly slow. I could imagine it being fun though. Although i think that technically you use more than one screen, as you have multiple levels.
In general a very nice game. Level generation is really hard. I got lucky my second level was already solvable. Controls are fast and fluent. However if the level is winnable there is no real challenge in solving it. It would be greate if you only had fast mode, then you need to think a bit more (Also makes level generation harder, I know).
I love the theme. It is very funny how the wolves do not simply kill your sheep, but leave bite marks. The game is really difficult.
The characters look awesome. The game concept could be interesting and fun. Currently however it is hard to figure out if two fields are connected. This makes it a bit tricky to play.
The graphics are cool and the game has a lot of variation for something created in such a short time. Unfortunately the sound gets very annoying and repetitive very quickly.
The art style is interesting. I also like the basic game idea. However it would be cool if I as a player could have more influence (e. g. distract the murderer by throwing down a vase, etc.) The clicking sound is also a bit annoying, but the fake angry voices were quite fun and fit the mood well.
Nice idea. However for me the controls were very clunky, which made the game by far less enjoyable. Very often the farmer would just drop the hoe, but it still looks the same, and then you use right-click and nothing happens. You do not see that he dropped it until you move to another field. Felt very annoying.
Nice concept and cute execution. Will get boring after a while, but could be really a nice basis for some more variations on the same idea.
At some point no more bells would fall. I did not really know what to do at that point :(
It is interesting how you play multiple games at once, but ultimately I was a bit sad, because you said it would be a puzzle game, but it really was much more of an action/ multi-tasking game. Still very unique interpretation of theme. More like: Multiple games in one screen :D
Nice little game. I love logic puzzles. However I did not like that you always hat to wait so long and move so far to trigger the next action. It distracted me from my thinking process. It could have been nicer if you would have used the different mouse buttons for the three actions as a short cut. The dialog window for witnesses is also not really necessary.
Kinda fun and weird art experience. Not really a game though, that is why I rated fun a bit lower. But artwork and music are stunning.
The mood fits the war theme you picked perfectly. An interesting game.
For 48 hours this game is impressive. It gets a bit repetitive towards the end and in most cases you do not really seem to have a strong influence on the outcome of the battles, but still quite nice.
The game reminds me a lot on atom zombie smasher. With the glows it looks really cool. However in general the controls feel slow and indirect and it is extremely hard to save your people for a lengthy time.
The game is nice. Definitely works on OS/X 64 bits. I kinda liked it, but unfortunately the controls are a bit clunky. It sometimes i hard to select the items. Also it took me a while to figure out how the game works. As some already said it is easiest to just let the fairies have their way and ignore them entirely, as their hit boxes seem to be quite weird, which makes them hard to catch.
Wow, amazing game. This game feels very unique like nothing I have played before. You never see how the level changes. However as soon as you reach the green orb it becomes very confusing, I reset the level several times and just did not manage to reach the end. Still the game is incredibly enjoyable and has a nice look and feel.
The game idea is interesting, but it currently sometimes is not clear how you can kill enemies and when they kill you. For me this reduced the fun a bit.
I love how you put everything into one screen, but still have several levels. For me it was a lot fun to play. I personally did not like the controls so much, because space and A, D are far away from each other, but that is a personal preference. Also i gave up at level 8 or so, because it became too hard for me.
A bit short. Nice villain. But not really a game...
The game is interesting and I like some of the mechanics. Currently however it still feels like most games are finished fairly quickly and moving is not really a huge point, as you can simply place units entirely out of reach. But with some more time it could be a great game.
I only have one controller for pc, but in general the controls worked well and I think the game could be huge fun with multiple players.
The monsters are cute. However there seems very little I can actually do. But just watching them eating my stuff feels rewarding.
I love the idea. Have not played a game like it, but imagine that in coop on a console with your friends. This could be so simple yet so awesome.
For the second guard you need to press the light switch. That is the huge read button. Hope it helps.
The graphics style is lovely. What is going on with Jimmys head though? It is spinning like crazy. In general the game is very easy currently.
A very different handle on pinball games. I really like it and the graphics.
Different and interesting. Easy to get lost.
I love how this tree grows, so much fun to watch.
Really nice entry. The games were really difficult to understand and feel a bit too random, but I could see this as being a really great mobile game, where you can even play against others.
Very interesting game play. I would prefer to be able to see a bit further. I had to scroll around so much it made me loose overview, also I got slight motion sickness.
Reminds me a lot of adventure capitalist, another really fun clicker game. Nice.
I like the art style. I could unfortunately not get out of the child stage, as the bar always reset. Maybe I did not understand the concept.
I really like the music. The game could be interesting, but currently with two buttons it feels like there are too little options. Also sometimes the buttons just will not react.
nom nom, I love meat, especially when I'm a monster and stealing it from my boss. Great fun game.
Nice entry. I only have some problems with motion sickness from the background. The game is simple, but effective.
It was very difficult to understand the game at first. But once I understood it, it was interesting. Unfortunately, it does nor really communicate well, what combines into what. That makes it difficult to steer the game.
Could not really play, as the game was cut off at the borders of the screen :(
The controls are really difficult, but you managed to implement an impressingly large game.
Could not run it on Mac :(
I liked the concept, but I would prefer the plant to grow automatically, while I only control the direction, as there is not enough that I actually have to think about to make it interesting as a puzzle game.
aaaaw it looks so sweet, and of course I had to try the dying animation. Good job with the graphics!
I really enjoyed the aesthetics of this game. However I never really understood the rules. No matter what I did, or where i clicked, I just always won.
The graphics are awesome, growing out, but not getting more space, was an interesting mechanic.
Mac download gives 404 error. Web version 403.
I think this could be really fun. As it is, it feels a little bit too random. It would be nice, if you had more influence on the growing and shrinking part and if there were more than three different sizes. But in general a nice game.
Unfortunately for me the game got stuck at the Unity loading screen :(
I did not get, how the fist fight should work, but the basic idea of the game looks promising. It is quite sad, that you did not get any further than this.
I am not sure, what I was supposed to do. As far as I could tell, I could just suck up everything and would be fine.
The controls were very difficult to understand at first for me. Probably not because they are so difficult, but because they reacted with a severe lag...
Frantic and interesting to play. The enemy movements are a bit too random, which makes it sometimes really difficult, sometimes. easy.
