@ayxs, This was a really pleasant little game :) The idea is really fun, and as a fan of Point&Click adventure games, this was a great little demo of one for a game jam, the graphics were another level.

One minor suggestion - Quality of life touches on P&C games are really important and add a lot in my opinion. Even something as small as speeding up / skipping island transitions after seeing each one of the possible ones would have been nice.

Overall one of the best this jam :)

Really enjoyed it! Actually made a similar thing for a school project. Was the software called `twine 2`?

No.thing by adliberum 2019-10-07T22:15:52Z

@adliberum Great use of the software really awesome :v:

Nothing but naked by LoneWolfDev 2019-10-07T23:17:30Z

@lonewolfdev, this is such a well realized submission! I really enjoyed it from top to bottom.

The tutorial and instructions are absolutely top notch and are so vital to selling this premise. The detection grace period and functionality was really on point. Really liked the unique interactions to affect the routines.

The game itself is also quite elaborate and I really like how there is almost like a real schedule and duties to each entity in the facility. 5/5

I liked the storytelling it was well written and added to the experience. The hand mechanic is comedic and is a fun idea to base your game around to use, though I wish it was slightly better to control, it felt slightly weird to control it and it wasn't clicking well enough with how the camera presented your point of view. Slight tweaking with the positioning and pov might have really helped.

But it was really enjoyable, as many said before, gave off Stanley Parable vibes :)

UnderShell by KaueSilva 2019-10-08T08:08:21Z

Moving around as the turtle was kinda clunky But the game is really polished and fun!

ZERO: UNDIVIDED HEROES by DjindeGames 2019-10-07T23:55:37Z

Really cool game!!

The take on the theme is one of the most interesting I've encountered. I wonder how it could be expanded upon. The graphics are really charming and the music is top notch (sick bass lines :fire: dudes)!

Controls well and it feels very complete and I haven't encountered any bug at all it really is a great entry!!

Shigechi's assembly by Gamers Blood Entertainment 2019-10-07T23:31:56Z

Nice game. Killer Queen's Third Bomb is now in my eye :v:

A course at the mall by RadonRaph 2019-10-08T07:43:10Z

It was fun to play, the music was really good, added a lot to the experience

Bruno's Mind Control Project by unplugred 2019-10-12T13:14:07Z

Awesome game! Really liked the art style, combining in a charming way fun 3d models and 16bit-ish textures looked great :) The concept is also very charming and could be really cool in a multiplayer competitive scene.

Blankspace by Dominium11 2019-10-08T07:34:46Z

Had fun playing this! I liked how you were getting your abilities taken just as often as you were getting them. It did feel a bit confusing sometimes to know what you actually have on as sometimes you are just flooded with abilities being given and taken in a short lapse of time, or in a scripted scenario such as the wind push.

Nully by Joshua Young 2019-10-07T23:24:45Z

@arielle-stroman, great submission! The sprites & animations were nice and the music was really well made!

Suggestions: The 1st enemy you encounter - not quite clear what caused him to die or why (Time elapsed?) Also the 2nd enemy was really weird to fight against, you can't really maneuver around / above him and he sort of rushes you which you couldn't really do much to defend against (was like a weird DPS race in a mega man -esque game)

But really fun and energetic entry!!

Vegan Farmer by leorean 2019-10-08T07:26:05Z

Had a lot of fun with this one!

The graphics are really charming and the idea is very unique and I like the different permutations!

Droog by ImPasta 2019-10-07T23:48:10Z

Really solid entry, the aesthetics and music work really well. I liked the unique controls though they are a bit odd to use, only 4 directions to jump to when the pointing is on all cardinal directions. Is kinda weird but doesn't feel too clunky. The enemy attacking patterns and behavior were kinda odd to comprehend with the control scheme though and it was making it a bit messy.

But the core of the game is really awesome with very minor bugs and feels really great overall too!

Scrap Spaceship by Nisovin 2019-10-07T22:36:45Z

Really clever and neat idea & even better execution!

Real fun overall.

Knight Dash by sam.awk 2019-10-08T00:11:14Z

This is a really nice submission man!!

Just requires some difficulty tweaking.

I thought personally it was really funny that putting on armor makes you faster and (essentially) lighter in weight haha.

The animations, sprites, music. All really great and the aesthetic works really well.

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-07T22:45:17Z

Thanks @robopossum for the feedback, and for taking a gander at my entry :) You can actually kill enemies, though not with your sword anyhow :/

I was really scratching my head on how to make the falling pits clearer haha.

Hopefully next time I'll think of a nice solution to my next attempt at a falling pit. Maybe a slight fog emission (and an actual clearer pit haha)

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-07T23:08:38Z

@lonewolfdev Thanks for playing dude!! I'm glad the theme was clear, I was afraid the cinematic aspect of the game wouldn't be understood too well.

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-07T23:40:56Z

@noshiz Thanks for playing the game, glad you had fun!!,

I'll look in to fix weird issues such as green button poking soon,

thanks for pointing this out!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-07T23:57:33Z

@sam-awk Really happy you enjoyed it, thanks!!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T00:02:54Z

Hey @changemewtf thanks for playing my game!

I implore you try again the the roll over the to the switch,

there's more content after that, that I think going through would maybe help you understand the game and why it was made this way a bit better :)

Again, only if you are still interested in the entry, have a great day!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T00:38:50Z

@changemewtf Thank you for having the resolve to try again and give my game another glance!! This means a lot to me thank you!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T06:47:48Z

Thank you @iantyf !

I never thought of the possibility of having a window of time to pick up the enemies weapon when it falls!

If I would have designed it to have a pick up mechanic I would definitely add that :) Really cool idea!!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T08:02:06Z

@skalex Thanks for playing!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T08:02:36Z

( @skalex , @iantyf ) Definitely an oversight on my part on what the animation I made implied haha. Thanks for pointing this out

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T08:19:41Z

@kanonix Thanks man!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T09:11:10Z

Hi @mad-brokli

I would really appreciate more details on what you encountered.

Was it a specific room? The start of the game? Persistent stuttering in the game or just at certain moments?

Thanks for playing!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T13:02:57Z

@mad-brokli The game has scripted 'cutscenes' of sorts. Where a dialogue box appears. You can't move in my game when a cutscene is playing till it ends.

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T13:04:36Z

@mad-brokli I suggest, if you're still interested in the game,

To see it to the end there's some fun moments in there :)

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-08T13:44:09Z

@mad-brokli Thank you for having the patience to give it another go :)!! Would love to hear what you thought if it when you finish!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-09T19:12:51Z

@nisovin Thanks for the kind words :)

I wanted to make a control setup screen that would actually effect the in-game button tutorials, just didn't have time sadly haha :v:

Was there anything else you found confusing about the game? I would like to know if you remember anything :)

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-09T19:45:26Z

@pilarius There is an in-game explanation to why these mechanics aren't working.

If you are still interested in the game, give it another go and see if you still feel about the game the same way.

Thanks for playing :v:

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-10T16:37:22Z

@nachtwitch Thanks!

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-12T16:25:32Z

@darylsteak Thank you!! I'll definitely be attempting to make some more engaging enemy encounters in future titles.

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-12T17:53:56Z

Thanks for the feedback @ausstein!! I'll definitely look into this bug where you rolled out of a room bounds, thanks for reporting :)

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-13T20:48:45Z

@franciszek-pyrc @jihem Thanks for playing :)

SwordMaster by HiveMinds 2019-10-15T21:29:51Z

@oneki Thank you :)

Everything Is As It Should Be by CLVP 2019-10-09T20:06:48Z

Really cool entry!!

I liked the story attempting to fit the theme.

The audio and graphics also helped set the mood well.

I really enjoyed the numerous little puzzles and how unique each one was. Though the 2nd one I sadly couldn't understand even with the hint. The visuals and hints present weren't enolugh to make it clear what it was I was interacting with and what I was trying to accomplish.

I also really liked the dialogue system really neat! I tried to do something similar in my entry, couldn't get the timed text scroll as well as I wanted, so ended up scrapping part of the logic haha.

VooDoo Jack by Daimen Paquin-Nault 2019-10-08T08:13:24Z

The audio was really quiet while some sound effects are very inconsistently loud. I liked the idea, the graphics were nice and I enjoyed how you implemented the theme to the mechanics!

Save the city from the aliens by Noshiz 2019-10-07T23:05:20Z

Played on WebGL, Played a lot like katamari damacy, had fun! The music was barely functioning, kept freezing and continuing. I liked going through the scene, and it was not cumbersome to control the ball. Nice entry!

Superchondriac by Camogamer 2019-10-07T23:37:10Z

Really cool take on the theme! The art style with the different emphasis on colors was really cool looking and the direction & music worked very well to set the mood for the game!

Amphibian Aura by DoctorTurbo 2019-10-08T07:58:47Z

Had both the mage and the enemy die at he same time. Still won haha.

It's a very fun and interesting entry!

I liked the idea for the battle system (if a little confusing - needs more focus on what you can do, especially abilites, cam rotation,) And the pre battle choice is a neat idea too. Nice work!

Start with WHITE by IanTyf 2019-10-08T06:57:07Z

Awesome game, had a lot of fun in the levels!!

The idea alone is really unique, and the implementation of the color apply system to your circle is really neat.

One suggestion - The main menu I saw had hover popups, though I only saw them by chance. Maybe find a way to make it clearer there is content to be seen at the hover buttons.

birb. by dygar 2019-10-08T07:51:38Z

Played the web version - though would have loved to play the rom :) Cute little game. A bit of a wierd bug when moving would make the player move even more to the input direction which made jumps frustrating. Also couldn't move right with bird (birb) at all.

Nothing in Room by Colsk 2019-10-08T08:16:00Z

Windows build. Game crashes right in the beginning sadly :/ When you spawn to look at the humans, after moving forward towards them.

The take on the theme is definitely interesting! Hoping to hear an update to know if something like what I encountered was fixed, I really want to try the entry!!

Nothing in Room by Colsk 2019-10-08T09:12:14Z

@wxzuir Windows 7

Pug Dealer : An Underdog Tail by robopossum 2019-10-07T22:26:01Z

Okay, this submission is so awesome. Loved the opening, the art, the music is absolute banging :fire: and fits the asthetic and pacing well. The controls and intuition on what to do was slightly awkward.

But awesome submission!
