Thanks for the feedback everyone! Post up your rubles in here :D
Just as a tip, the explanation of the gameplay is in the description of the post. Let us know if there are any questions about how it works!
Love the style. Kind of reminded me of Lethal Company rendering (not sure if intentional or not), and is very charming. The models and animations are all really fun, and feel impactful. Could use more in terms of progression.. Would also be great if the game indicated that the order is about to be over a more audibly.
The eerie music in a seemingly innocent game really gave me duck-bumps haha. I think its cute. But I could only find 4 ducklings. I'm a bad mom lol
Cool game! I loved the card summoning system, and the models. That is after having to zoom in to see basically anything. Could also have more clarity with what is going on with your summons fighting enemies. Are there attack stats? Defense stats?
Well done overall though!
The theme is nice and unhinged. Fun to beat up the popos Music is nice and chill. Pretty unique.
The bad: I really dont like the controls and the fact that you have to hit with the right side of your body. The punches could instead land where the mouse is aimed? Or at least the hand could be selected that way.
So cute, I love it. Great job!
Hi,
That is a neat idea. Summoning the evil Alexa to destroy the house.
Things I liked:
- Graphics are pretty neat, the floor by floor view is nice - Physics can be fun to mess around with - I like the turn of events from being cozy to being a horror game
Some I think need improvements:
- Stuff being more responsive when interacting with E - Sounds are tooo jarring - Can die very quickly without knowing what happened - Menu style could be better
There are some spelling errors, not sure if that is for comedic effect. I feel like the "hints" are a bit too difficult. I am not even sure what some of those words even mean. Also, if you are sacrificing a live cat for a demon.. Rude! The graphics are really fun though!
Okay so, after playing this for about 30 minutes, I have finally understood the gameplay. Too many game dev activities lately. Interesting memory game with a great style. THE STYLE, wow. All of the characters have so much personality. The music definitely adds to the vibe. And as for the gameplay itself, discovering new combinations is a great idea. Definitely should be using a notepad for keeping track of recipes. Kind of felt like there should be a way to track your discoveries in game if I'm nitpicking.
I really like the music/animation/gameplay. I am, although, still confused on how to play.. even after reading your description. Are they lying if the pattern doesn't match their circle of hell? "The game has a list of diseases due to which the demon cannot be tested and diseases that are being tested." There is only one disease list. Is that the good list, as in "fit" or bad list as in "unfit"? I think it's confusing that the instructions are worded differently than in the game. Maybe if it said "if the demon has a disease on this list, it is unfit" would be clearer... but I am still not sure if that is right. Again, I think the game is fantastic. I love the idea and the art, its just the explanation thats keeping me from playing it to its full potential. Amazing job.
I love it haha. The ants leaving the page and coming back with chunks of meat is hilarious. Multiwindow games are always a treat. Love the music, and the little collecting effects. Great job overall :)
Try to make it more responsive next time? Cant tell if my clicks are registering most of the time. Should also give some kind of feedback for when stuff CANNOT be done due to cost and/or population.
I love the game so much. It is very cute and a fun idea. I wish it were full screen though!
Arrow keys don't work for me, I cannot move
Hi!
Love the style of the game, also the music totally slaps. All the gameplay loops, while tested and tried, are fun to play and are well made.
Could be cool to have some kind of progression where you collect the files and can then view them later?
Cheers!
Hi!
I like:
- Duck sound - Cute golems - The map is really nice - The music and sounds are all well made
Some of the meh things:
- Sprites are a little too vague to understand what counters what - Game over sound killed my ears lol
omg those cats are ruthless! I hope they all have names
The game is really neat. I love the way camera reacts to movement. Summoning radius is a cool idea as well. More enemies and/or summons would be a great addition.
I somehow got pushed out of the wall by an enemy, so never died or finished.
