Nice puzzle!
(It took me a bit to get the hang of it) but it is a really nice and original idea :smile:

(It took me a bit to get the hang of it) but it is a really nice and original idea :smile:
A bit of a hard concept to wrap my head around.. don't see much of a connection to the theme
This game really has a very specific (dark) tone to it, and it was conveyed very well.
On the gameplay side of it, there wasn't any gameplay I saw..it was more of reading the dialog between the different characters, felt more like a story than a game.
same thing as @mharring
Cool game, a bit hard but thats ok I guess.
Fooled me a couple of times.. thought I should take the fall, only to realize later on there is a lever hiding at the top right corner :laughing:
Wow real nice game, I quite enjoyed it..even though the theme didn't really come through for me
I **LOVED** the way you handled bullets hitting players (The way they just push you in their direction instead of the normal way bullets work).
When I press up real hard to a wall, my weapon sticks out the other side of the wall, giving me the ability to shoot through that wall. Was this intentional?
@elzach well you got my free QA services hehe
even though it is a bug, it is still a really neat feature :smile:
Nice game I liked the concept.
On level 2, I got stuck in a tree/bush and couldn't get out of it no matter how many times I tried to move, which killed the character. So possible bug over there / unexpected behavior.
Fun game overall.
game doesn't load for me...
Nice little game, I won :smile: and then I lost :confused:
Was presented with the message ** Hooray we have taken over Humpa **, and like 7 seconds after that saw the screen with the message ** we didn't pay in time, the aliens have come for us **. So did I win or lose? :laughing:
I liked the music, it really set the tone for the game. I wish it was a bit longer :smile:
Nice effort overall.
An ok game, The movement felt off to me, it felt like the character was sliding instead of stopping, which got annoying really fast.
The link to the game doesn't show a game, shows a 404 error...
Cool entry, some things I would've added.. - Add a numeric representation of the energy values in different containers - Add the ability to look around the room
If there were numeric values, it would have added a nice layer of gameplay, instead of simply guessing when do I have enough energy to move on to the next phase of the level.
I couldn't know if the full battery arrived at its destination unless I actually went there and checked.
Could not understand how to use the button at level 3 or 4
The jumping timer, no bueno...
Kind of weird gameplay..
Couldn't understand what I needed to do in the game to win, or progress.
Nice graphics.
The web build doesn't run for me..
@n-one was it the one with the yellow button? or what bug are you referring to?
@trevor-shoe yeah, had a real struggle with the physics of the box, if I had more time, maybe I would've gotten it right. The box went through **a lot** of modifications to its physics in these 48 hrs :laughing:
@kristinnes glad you liked it :smile:
@sillyman987 go to the shop, press the down arrow key, the key will be selected, press enter.
@sillyman987 sure thing :smile:
@xcvzxc Well done! Thank you for sharing your achievement :smile: I'm very glad you enjoyed my game.
@nexusviper thanks for pointing out the bugs you have found, I will try to fix them as soon as possible.
Also, you can actually handle the shop only with keys, up and down to select items, and enter to purchase the selected item. However your frustration is noted and will be improved upon (next ldjam perhaps) :smiley:
@michael-feldman Was going exactly for that miniclip experience so I'm glad it came through :smile: Thanks for the positive comment, glad you enjoyed the game :smiley:
@dumivid did you buy a key to open the chest? :smile:
Can you elaborate on how the game got stuck if you used all the boxes?
@mykola thanks for the great review, really glad you liked the game! :smile:
@harusame @skoggy Thank you both very much !
@exewin hahah! Just so you'll know these were both intentional :smiley:
The first image depicts exactly what I thought.. if the player is observant enough, he will understand he can pass the level with just 1 box instead of 2
The second image depicts the greediness of the player that gets ruthlessly punished :smile:
@darylsteak Yeah the boxes falling off was a feature that I didn't know if it will be good gameplay or not.. It was intentional however.. if you place the box just right, it will never fall off, but if you place it hastily or carelessly you just wasted a box.
@jiri-hysek Thanks for the great feedback, noted! and I'm glad you enjoed it :smile:
@oddsocks Thanks for the great feedback and glad you enjoyed the game :smiley:
The shop was clearly the pitfall of this game entry, as you are not the only one to mention it was unnecessary, but hey, you live and you learn :smiley:
@ausstein Wow very nice! I was **not** aware of this haha
Just curious, did you find it on your first go of the level? or were you looking for exploits? :wink:
@ausstein haha nice thought process!
Will you be available to do game testing for the full version of the game? xD
@persegan Glad you enjoed it :smile:
@f1krazy Thanks for the great review, your and other peoples comments encouraged me to create an extended version, and I can confirm it is progress :smiley:
Cool idea, even though the graphics and the UX is lacking.
There is no indication if a wall is thin or not, so I don't know if I can break it, only after a sacrifice was made.
Also I would like to reuse the alter if I made a wrong decision instead of restarting the level.
Cool idea, had fun playing it.. didn't quite understand if a currency that is colored in green is good for me or not..
@aaron96 well it was counter intuative for me.. if you think about it, the more the coin is worth the LESS you can afford but ok hehe
Cool game, would've liked some audio with it
