Nice idea, but it takes too long to kill the block enemy, making the game too hard.

Nice idea, but it takes too long to kill the block enemy, making the game too hard.
The design is simple:>
Too many garbage too close with each other, and there is a delay before you can shoot the garbage out, it limits the player's skill.
I love Miami Hotline too! This game really got that feeling! It is really hard work to polish to such degree in a compo!
Really nice done! So complete!
Love the graphic!
Nice graphics and feeling! Too bad not completed!
Is the light the weapon for the theme?
The graphic looks nice, but the controls are hard to get
And the levels are too dim, and SPACE should cast more light.
Can not pass the red level...
It is a crazy game...
Nice design.
But soldiers workers looks too similar, it is hard to tell
Really smart game! It is a bit like those push box puzzles. Hard to realize at first. Fit the theme nicely!
Nice graphic, music and yoyo simulation!
But wont hurt touching enemy, the game is not completed?
Nice music and graphic, but it can not be controlled with keyboard and I can not play it...
Another flail game for me! Nice graphic! But the control is to difficult die a lot! Better not make every thing hurts on collides! Nice game!
I give you my 5 star overall! This is really well-crafted puzzle! The mechanism is profound like Braid! I love the end game moment!
Love those pixel animations! But the randomness make it a game of luck (for me at least)
Also the theme...
Really fun game! Has a lot of potential!
Maybe nice idea and graphic. But too buggy for me (kind of move one step back suddenly)
Control is not nice, too many bugs, sometime I can jump onto two blocks and sometimes not.
But graphics and bgm hold me playing for quite a while.
Says failed to initialize 3D setting, sorry

Simple game. The ropes are realistic and camera shake is rally nice!

Nice game. But it would takes days to play?
The cardboard style. And the homemade music. Picked by GB!

Nice game! With the graphics and sound, especially voicing, the game is really fun to play! But the only strategy to spawn all at once?
Not sure what I am playing... But the intro part is great!
It's a crazy game! Head can attach to the body or just fly, it's really interesting!
Art is great! Nice multiplayer game! Vampire can not attack? Only moves?
Hard work for these models and animation. But the game is too difficult..
The graphics is nice. All the models and animation are hard work!
It is a little rogue-like crawler game! Hard coding work!
Nice and simple game. It's like Mine Sweep in essence.
Good job!
Firstly. A map will be useful. Also save points, too.
I think the battle(throwing knife) is fun. Overall very done!
Good idea for party game.
Hard work for this game! It's a simple game!
Nice strategy board game! Had to read comment below to play. But worth the while! Great game!
Great game! The visual is so styled!
Graphics are nice! I think monster is all part of us, even when we are just kids. It's the primitive desire to destroy things.

It is inspiring the way you move around!

It is really nice to rest among the chaos of JAM. Thanks
Nice graphic! The idea is great, too.
It would be better if eating animation be shorter, though.
You should add this to desc:
Controls: Drag from the factory to the monster to set up a route.
It's promising concept! It like selling monster to game companies...
Overall 5/5!
Great job! The game is lovely! This could be the most sweet way interpret the 'monster' in the theme! The inner conflict between kill and love, the polished graphics and tweening! Picked by GB!
The developer to use the uncompleteness to aide the story telling, making a twist in the end! And thus the making the whole game complete!
Great concept. Greatly done.
The firing moment is really cool!
But kill them all? Without touch floor or ground? Too hard I think. But I sense a lot of potentials on this game. Picked by GB.
I like the idea. The graphics is neat. Nice job!
This is really great concept. I think it's unfair for the monster! It would be nice to add some design from tower defense games: earn money and spend the money on some traps and stuff...
Picked BY GB.
Cool menu stuff...And reverse game design make me laugh! Great game!
Simple game. But really gun..
One problem is that player always face right and shoot right...
Interesting game! The power of mimic is to lure the enemy!
Check this http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-33/?action=preview&uid=52622
Another game on mimic

Innovative little game！ I arm not good at it.
It's nice idea! The dual use of oil is nice.
The game has potentials!
I wish the game could be faster-paced.

Great animation. Simple game logic.
Personaly pick.
Great! Very polished game. I loved destroy the building! Hard work on the graphics and music.
I like the attack animation.
It would be nice to have some audio. Not bad for first jam.
Enemy repeat your move, great idea.
The art and animation is great. The atmosphere is masterly done.
But the time limit is too short. It seems picking up the kits is quite challenging itself.
Nice game! The puzzle is clever! A bit too hard for me!
This game is really fun, especially when you hear the joy sound of victims! It also has stealth elements. The game has potentials! Picked by GB!
Really fun game! Love the spinning chair in the title.

No way to get angrier?
Too simple, I think. And how to move left and right?
Great work under 48 hour! The music is very nice!
Nice game. Hard work in models and animation. The environment looks really good.
Nice graphics and feel. But.. not really any game with monster fits the theme... Very hard work there..

Theme 5/5
It's really interesting idea, really fits the theme!
Though I wish, it would be better to have tourist behavior more predictable.
I love the idea! It could be really fun to have restaurant that serve human to human!
Very polished, shame to play it alone! It seems to be really fun!
Greate art. And the gameplay, it is an advanced version of WHAC-A-MOLE？
Great concept! It is really interesting to think on the perspective of a simple monster!
Bad thing is that level 2 too repetitive and thus make it too hard. Why not add some save point in the middle?
Personally picked!
Intresting. Harsh images and style, but also have a lot details made like the fail sound, all the little animations.
The game could be better is have some focus, like a powerful pickup somewhere or a critical enemy.
Simple and has some potential
It's interesting to throw thing! I mean as fish...
The game became a lot of fun and challenging latter the game.
Nice job!
A dark version of Angry Birds? It great fun to throw humans! Hard work on the levels.

Great and dark story! Really sad!

Nice idea! It a bit hard due to the fact you cannot control the pointed end directly!
I like the music. Hard work!
Very nice graphics. It's a little typing game. I love vector art! Well done!
5/5 Overall!
This is great gameplay. I beat the game! Great art and mood!
Picked by GB!
It is hard work creating all the graphics and music. It's a short text adventure game.
Great concept! Nice to have detective game!
Hard work on the models! I like hunting humans in the dark!
It would be better to have more varieties in game play!
And a map would be useful.
Good idea! Very funny game! So a monster is a naughty kid who mess up things or be creative rather than obeying rules!
Great game! It's fun to meet all those aliens each with each own rule to interact! Great concept
The visual style is amazing! But for players it's a bit dark.
OK! It is nice game about monster election campaign! I like the concept very much.
Nice game. Nintendo fans would love to play this.
The music is great! The art is nice! But the clickable object are too few. And I am confused: when the exit could be clicked? Is there real time running and event are time based? I don't know how to proceed the game.

The atmosphere is great with sound and graphic! The idea is nicely executed!

Nicely done! But the trap is annoying as it's diagonal...
Great! Nice to another Pin-ball game!
Bug it the bug go stuck...But the graphics and shake is really polished!
Greate Game! I love those 3D pixels stuff!
Wow! So interesting. At first, i thought it was weird Snake, but suddenly it turned into another game.
We call it a "Brain Hole" game in Chinese.
I like the wanted level in the third level/stage?
Would love to see more stages!
Love the graphics and music! Nice take on the theme.
Advice:
Enemy move and steal too fast.
I lose the game suddenly, should have some kinds of indication.
Game is fun. The control feels great! The music is nice!
Bugs : Restart might cause space not working (Win7 64)
Also, installer is troublesome for jam rater, as they has to uninstall..
Great atmosphere! I like the cursor thing.
Wow! Great style！ Game play very polished! I am not good at this kind of game so it to hard for me. But it's a really nice entry on the runner sub-category.

Likes:
God Game
Fits Theme
Simple Generates Complex
Pixel Art
Wow! 5 Star overall game.
The adventure feel, the pixel character, feeding the monster, all great! It would be better if the story made complete.
Like sth more happen to the monster and stuff...
I can see your potentials
Nice little defense game.
The game looks too small on 1920 1080 screen.
There is a part equip system. But the ring panel is too difficult to understand...
Interesting take of the theme. Two buttons as two buttons.
I like the design of cooperative puzzle. Great Job!
Great game! A minimal design of sim city.
Suggestions:
1 Game ends to quickly? As the price of stuff go up really fast.
2 Game came to a tie when price is too high. How can it to a game player tries to play longer yet fail due to increasing difficulty.
Love the concept，but it's really hard to jump on the first floating platform......
Great old school style! It took some practice to fly over the fist tall building!
It's a crazy fast-paced experimental game.
Experience oriented game. Nice! Yet why I can't grow a beautiful one as screenshot...
Simple game, with a 4 star graphics!
Great concept. Could use some polish. The mini games are hard to understand (its rules and goal)
Strange style! Great work!
Man, take care of your wife. Jam can wait...
In this game you reach a target place and then the island would rise a bit from water.
Control scheme, left and right to move left and right, double tap to jump to move in that direction.
As ld34 entry, this game explores (successfully) adding more action under the two-button-limitation.
It also use the grow theme uniquely with terrain gradually emerge from water generating more gameplay (or change existing gameplay).
I like the first level. But the later level looks impossible...
Graphics is good. But the game feels buggy:
It ends too quickly,
space bar for jump
yet what does MAJ mean？
Innovative! Feels a bit of impossible.. Never made it to see the upgrade..
Nice running game. I like the art style!
Original concept. But it's hard attach big/small to green/red...
Great polish! Good job!
The 3D artwork is amazing. I like the story.
But I lost when I met the sprout. I can make it grow taller, yet what is the goal?
Nice artwork! Flip over is nice idea,
The obstacle comes too fast...
Space bar will blow the cloud!
I love the graphics! It's so nice!
But game is too complicated... I would even wish for a liner viking against sea monster story with this graphics style...
Nice game. Inspiring. But the control is odd and unresponsive..
Remind me of gumboy
The background image is really cool and imaginative.
Tough the game is simple, but the control is smooth and plished.
Great game!
Great work! Two buttons game with plant, most typical game in this ld34! The graphics looks really nice. The ending is impressive!
I think the game is like a toy, it provokes many interaction between players. The right side player might get a F, which is in the territory of left player. The left player might cover the key from being pressed. These things are not visible on screen.
Great job.
Great game！
Great Graphics. But the pace is too slow. Most of time is simply waiting.
The two button control design is nice!
Would be better if landscape window.
The art is so cute!
I like the fractal tree. The vector art is nice, too.
The game play, is like Ping with survival.
You can not shift or rotate if select not on any tile, this doesn't not feel good.
Find a hidden path while watching for changes in the stunning graphics in animation?
Wander in a dgn and kill anything that moves?
Best game played so far! Best part is how the tall form move up in steps!
Nice pixel art! But what is the difference between stages other than graphics?
Not rate: crash on execute, win7 64 with openAL 2.1 installed
Nice game! Pixel art looks good! Nice to see a building-defense game in LD
Well, I played to level 9 yet still dont understand the rules...
5 star game!
Great art style! Mechanic is potential! Nice to first person view puzzle like this!
Eh... Too hard for me. But the game looks really nice. But the game has a really beautiful world.
I like the dots switch to different formations, it's really cool!
Looks very decent to play!
Nice graphics,
Nice entry! Good to see a roque-like! But the control could be improved...
Innovative! Nice! Glad to see shape shift on interactive artistic perspective.
Cool idea about split and merge, but its quite trouble some to switch and move all the pieces one by one to pass a tunnel...
Ok, move and rotate to match the shape?
Characters are really funny designed!
I'm sorry to try your game this late:>
Visual
The graphics is really nice, and beyond "looks nice", the visual elements are used in a innovative way. It feels like you are experimenting in the layer of interactive graphics.
In game jam, we make game that looks humble, and games that looks nice, even games looks like commercial product. But this game looks ultra-beautiful while remaining indie.
Because you are creating visual styles, rather than just borrowing or copying.
Two or three days, no one can walk very far. But it's obvious that you took your unique path.
Mode
Along with the audios, you bring me into a world that is really hard to describe. Underneath the graphics and sound, you build an emotion. Game is but an emotion generator.
In each level, the emotion shifts a little. And the best part of this game is how the emotions passes through the wall of logic, is how these abstract signals triggers the our brain to feel.
Rules and Goals
Have you ever played "Everyday Shooter"? Your game is same with that because you are both abstract themed. But even though everything is abstract, but player do need to understand the relative reason inside the game. The player always needs to know the goals and how to reach the goal.
If you decided to have them explore and understand these themselves, you have to be more carefully. You must rely on your audio, visual, animation, changed of mood, screen-fx to express if he did a good thing or bad thing.
You have to inform the player when the level progresses, when the game is in deadlock.
You have to express the logic through interaction. And the player would feel great if they get the hidden message.
Finally
Congratulations on your first solo!
Really enjoyed the game! I like those simple game with upgrade. Also the class change system is nicely designed in this game!
Funny game!
Well polished puzzle game! The puzzle design is neat!
Shape-shift as the changing of environment
Simple but fun!
Nice idea!
Great game! Nice level design for level 4! Quite potential!
Interesting way to move. Very funny! Quite potential!
Originally, there were three kinds of people, they are not friends, and they know it well. So they stay away from each other and there were peace.... Until, one day, an adventurer....
Yes, it is always welcome to see weird stuff in a jam!
Hard work preparing all those videos！
Beautiful graphics. The floating state is funny!
Shape-shift was taken as "Make a game about triangle and square, maybe even circle" by so many jammers. But this one is really well made.
Really nice game! Enjoyed while playing!
You control a ... cursor which may transform into hand/axe/hammer... to help the little hero advance in the dungeon full of traps
Wow! Very innovative mechanic! Really fun to play as worm like this! Really creative!
It's really nice to a tangram game!
the game is nice that the three common shapes would affect game-play naturally. Circle allows movement, square means defense. I would like to have triangle form functions with its natural shape rather than artificially designed mechanism.
Whoa! Great art! I like the volume light effect at the tree, it looks really nice!
I like it. Very Experimental! You have to experiment with the buttons and guess what kind of meaningfull image would finally appear or is there?
Sorry I dont have too much time on this, but the exploration is fun.
Verey cute! Also the manhanism design is very unique and fun and have potential. Great game! Simple and fun!
I like the arts style, very inspiring.
... but not related to the theme
A dark story is told in one room but with through the change of time.
Survive the rotation room and dont touch the lava!
I really like the title! Bring back the childhood.
Reminds me why I am making games
Classic one room maze game..
ASCII Dungeon game! But not much to do
Interesting idea for the theme!
Never submit a installer for jam game, please.
Hard work!
I like the morphing shader as a blury image from the memory!
The ui control is poslished well! Sim and defense works well to fit the theme
I like the simplistic graphic stryle.
Very beautiful game! Nice puzzle!
Limited space - defence
Fun to play!
Clever use of the theme!
This is a nice short game! I like the moment when door opens!
The game is too hard... Why cant I shoot inside the room?
A lovely :dog: puppy game, 3D platform jump, little puzzle, lots of jumps. This game is very Gao Ming.
:joy: Voice acting with soul :joy: 3D modeling with soul
This game is more complex and more fun than it looks.
Apart from finding the spaceship parts, you will also find power-up that allows you to explore in larger regions.
"Shoe" that make you jump hight, "田" allows you enter cold place, etc. And evetually you can fly.
Also, there are deisgns like "push stone to hold the door swtich", and "crack in the wall that indicate a hidden pass"
The level design is very good work, also the world circles from left and right, as it is indeed a "planet".
Just played a puppy game , and here comes a cat game...
It is really fun to play as a cat hiding against master. The cats modeling, the animation, the voice acting is really cool! Also, it is really nice making a game reflecting the real life.
Problems: Wide screen had UI mis-layout
The game is a strategy game about maintaining a hp> 0 and boredness < max state. You choose events for what player encounters.
You need to make the player upgrade / level up to fight stronger enemies and thus be less bored.
WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THE GAME, IS IT REMINDS ME THE FEELING OF ACTUALLY MAKING A GAME. DESIGNING FOR PLAYER EXPERIENCE. And sometimes it is a matter of strategy and calculation.
BTW The game can also be a decent entry for that "Control the game not player " theme.
唯美的解密游戏！体验非常棒！动态性的机制也很值的研究！
Crazy way of interpreting the theme. LOL
My favorite: Cardinal; Rock Sim; What a Bomber; Presudo Snake.
Good pixel art! Action is limited when carry too much fits the theme. But it also makes game-play depressing.
I never thought that camera scale could be used as a game design value. Really interesting approach of design,
Very good game! The fun part of the game is running on surface of a tiny cubic planet. This is really interesting! As game progress there are more and more white spider to avoid. The more the worse.
The best thing I love this entry is how it embed the little story into the game: Received a gift of VR device > then "game" really starts > virtual friends and stuff appears. All very smooth!
Very brilliant entry!
Game about war over fans. The more popular you are the fans you get and then your army get bigger. I think this angle is good. But:
1 When I actual play the game, the fans just get converted time to time, they wont get killed or disappear, so it is really hard to see some progress. Controlling them does not seem to be a very big advantage, as they will be converted very quickly.
2 I dont see how "the more you have, it is the worse"
Nice strategy game but:
I reach 600/600 happiness but 100% happiness still not completed. Where is the 3rd girl in cover?
The ending make jokes about reality.
@antti-haavikko Thanks for your time for such a long review!
The box collider size for the spike is bigger than a square, which is a bug. I noticed that many times. But during the jam it was always in a hurry. You have almost talk about everything/bug this game has. I really thank you for all these.
+1 as the game is realistic themed and showing bits of truth in real life +1 as the author is very skilled to convert "strange" concept into playable even fun game mechanics
I like the background little man following his thought. It's a game in his brain,
Looks like a decent app, the atmosphere is very relaxing.
Man, I really this game! Could be the best "Crazy fans" type entry (I played). The mode is good!
The best part I like, is how you treat the audiences like particles. Seeing the crazy fans be blown away is really funny. I hope there could be more "physically based method" for defence like "Orc must die"
Like: Super Force field that attacts or push away, teleport them to another place....
Amazing job drawing all these graphics during the jam! Even with the cartoonist lined style, you still managed to deliver a sense of horror. The words are well written. But I would complain about the font size of the letters.
Congratulations for doing a nice little adventure game in a jam.
Wow! Really nice graphics!
I like Rick and Morty too. But I just dont get the game. The hint in the first screen is confusing. Am I supposed to look for a specific image like with "morty at left, no holding bottle" or what?
I really like what you did in this game, the ideas, the visual and the feel.
When I play, I hoped that all the channels could affect each other and forms some kind of link.
Since this game is about mental status, maybe in the eyes of special people, the channels of a TV could just link up in a weird way. From CNN news to a cartoon, to tv series and old fashioned commercials, they are interlinked somehow, which forms a unique setting of world.
To be more specific, a female character in a movie could be sad because of the news in the next channel; a boy wants to cut open sth but finds no tools, yet there is a Knife commercials in another channel; a cartoon frog sit under the sewage, but the sewage could be also in another channel, but in different visual style and mood.
Bad English, I hope you get my point..
There are many entries using "weight as burden" interpretation in this jam. But slowing down player usually make the game depressing. But for horror games, such design is good, though.
Damn good entry. The mechanic fits the theme very well. The graphics is beautiful and game-play is well polished. Really good job!
The game is a bit too hard. The graphic is good.
Simple but very stylish!
Not bad. Though simple, the game is complete as a top-down zombie shooter.
Suggestion: one common way to make simple game more fun is to have "collect coin and buy upgrade" system.
Maybe you allow player upgrade the reload time bullet damage.
Another thing that could improve the game design is "adding some highlight", like the big dot in pac-man, or the bombs in flight shooters. In your case, maybe a grande to kill all the zombies in screen. On such design is enough to have the player "hoping " during the more usual game-play.
@goldranger @jimmothysanchez Thanks for your kind comment. It was too busy during the jam that I dont have time to think carefully about the battle strategies. I will update some post-jam versions.
@bificommander Thanks, but I didn't get the point of the first part of your comment...
@bificommander Oh I get now. In fact, Chinese gov is carrying a strict censor system on games. Games about realistic topic will never get pass. Publishers are not to be blamed in this situation.
Kind of meta game? Hilarious that option actually affect the game play
The game is not polished enough... But you shared an interesting idea!
Awesome game! It is fun to run among the hills. Really nice jam game! I think the respawn part (where you need click to make your own character) really fits the theme.
@taylor-reynolds Thanks
@miu Thanks for your feedback, I didnot thought about that
@moonagent F for FOOD? There are alternatives. The more a letter is use in the words, the more the drop rate.
@nickykendy 谢谢
@wxzuir Thanks for your suggestion, word game usually have a hint system.
@smitto Thanks, please try the WIN version for better experience.
@velvetlobster Thanks, I was going to make a "place-stuff-on-ground-to-craft" system, then I had this "why-not-just-use-letters" idea.
@webox WOW, that is the highest compliment this game can get...
@srakowski Thanks!
@adafheyesh Thanks for your advise! During the jam I had concerns about these issues but did not have full attention to fix them.
@landosystems Thanks!
@its-jackal Thanks.
@shelvid I am glad you enjoyed it.
@steffy Thanks!
@niborious Thanks, that is really good advise!
@maxymax Thanks! Rhis game can be some secret words easily...
@noobdev Thanks, I am glad you enjoyed the game.
@sol-roo Thank you for playing
@lone-wolf Thank you for playing
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it.
Really nice game! A nice twist on the classic puzzle!
Realy beautiful graphic and the narration is good.
Cool graphics, creepy atmosphere, the game is simple and straight.
I think the idea is cool! Just need some polish...
The player is just like one of the little man in the box?.... Though short, this is the kind of game that makes me think, a lot... Great game.
Snipaste_2020-10-07_12-07-14.png Fun Game! But can have more kinds of fishes!
Quite surprised to see a nice puzzle design around the common music game mechanic! Both the game design and art style is well done! The theme is interpreted as "a loop of time/music clip".
But since the game require all the notes to be done perfectly to pass a level, the rest of a puzzle is meaningless after any mistake. Restart or direct control of the progress bar will make the experience much better.
Nice to see a programming game! Agreed with Zachary Barbanell that it is interesting to edit the programming while it's running. The theme is interpreted as "the looping excution of program", which in fact, is fundamental for all video games...
Though simple game yet with a very grand point of view. Theme is used as "the loop of civilization". The most dramatic scene is the time goes back to the very beginning when I hit a nuclear bomb(?) in the later part of the game.
A fantastic combination with a lovely art style and poopy mechainc! Though simple, but the game create a layer of strategic gameplay around poop management: how to make all sheep poop at one place for cleaning efficency yet if not cleaned soon enough, that poop site could kill a sheep instantly. The theme is interpreted as "running along a looped path".
Good idea but the lava flood too much to leave it any strategy room when choose where to build blocker, because every where need blocking. It would be very nice to have elemenets like nature hills to make scene more complex. Also, if I can select which people onboard first can also increase strategy depth(by clicking on building tiles directly?) Good work!
Cool idea, but too hard,too tight. Sometimes I wonder if a solution is possible, yet it is real time and pause time is even limited. I wish the game can be more relax. Good work!
Nice game I wish the infomation can be more clear: What are nearby target exactly When will next missile launcher fire and how much damange etc
Great work!
@lqc-atlas Thanks for your kind words, I am still improving the game, be sure to check out later
@sillyman987 Dont worry，I will seperate jam vesion and updated version，reviewers can judge fairly.
@dob @ribout-horace Thanks for your feedback! Such game genre does need a careful designed tutorial which I can't do within the jam time...
@oramun @ricardopino Thanks! One thing I learned this time is I should never give up the tutorial part of the game...
@lereveur Thanks, such genre of game does require a lot of basic work to even get running, I sarcrifise the tutorial part which is quite a mistake for a jam entry. I had just updated the game on itch.io, please do try again. I have done a lot of improvements.
@scsc Thanks for you review! I am glad you can enjoy from the game. I have to say, you have out-played the game... I haven't designed that far. I merely thought about how the game can ends like seperate countries into islands or let one country take over the rest. Maybe in the future version. Thanks for your feedback about actual playing experience and suggestion. I will take into account for next update. Some actions will change zone status permenently and some will just cast "temporary effect", which always leaves a icon on the zone with "X turns" in zone hover panel, but the description on card should be more clearified.
For tips on the development side, I really can't say such game require any specific technology rather than a lot of basic coding utilities, like Excel importer, dynamic value (a value wrapped with modifiers to allow temporary modifications) and simple grid algorithms(finding nerighbours etc). As a turns based game, compared to action game, in fact, is a lot more easy to code, as everything is predictable. Most of the time I was designing to make the econimic model in game to be simpler and easier to understand. And how to present the data, as it seems is still has room for improve.
Unity doesnt offer too much, but you sure can find solutions in the asset store. I had been using Unity for job for more than 5 years now, I have many wishes for Unity as well. But I really dont expect too much for it.
Lastly, this wont be opensourced, and I plan to work on it to be a real commercial game later, hopefully.
I thought is a simple game but the prejectory path of moon and accelerator works in physics which adds a lot of depth based on math. I think it would be nice to slow down that pace and allows player carefully plan the moon path. Great work!
Really cool concept! Dragging elbow is super fun design!
Very inspiring entry!
I aggree with some comments that the rules are bit hard to read. But the game is good design:
you face more and more cards on deck you try to use dice to fill the demand of cards you can use any dice without rolling at all (use them as it is) but as demands(box) are growing, you have to roll dices to change them into possible needed numbers yet once all the rolled dices add up to 50 the game instantly end
The part I like is the mechanism of how card demands dices, with range/evenodd/certain number Also the potential of perplan early in the game (prepare a balance group dice early) And the best part, every strategy is masked with randomness The distribution of dices is puzzle(certian) combined with random(uncertainty)
Good work!
Really good job! Just one thing, typing POTION did heal my hp...
You are crazy... I like crazy
Runing after sun is good idea! Maybe add something that cast shadow will add more depth? Good work on the visuals!
Great game! I like Wario, thanks for your work!
The tutorial did not tell my how to get the resources, most action can not operate becuase of lack of resources. A how-to-play is need to enjoy the game.
@arihan10 Thanks, I will try again
Great work! This is potential commercial game! Congratulations!
How the water goes higher that cause the lose of land is really interesting. The choosing of landing spot is also tactical, I hope the game can be slower to have more time to evaluate the map which can have more depth in strategy.
This is a neat little boss fighting game. Though simple, but very complete!
@anya-voinova Thanks for playing! Green dots can be collected when you equip a certain item, that can be found in the giant rock at bottom right.
@fivecyclops I'm glad you enjoyed the game! I submitted too late and I didn't know the corss-rating rules also works for Extra group.
@denilseven Thanks for your kind words! You are really good with a 52 min record.
@leparlon Thanks for playing!
@eaglez Thanks!
@marks Thanks! I took a lot of inspiration from exploration games.
@t90 Thank you! "Addictive" is indeed high praise!
@nicekot Thanks!
