The way in which the solution came about (not gonna spoil it here) was quite surprinsing to me, especially as the rest of the game seemed quite grounded in reality but I really enjoyed it. Nice artstile , good sound design, nice small all-in-all package:) Would play a collection of 20 of these with some connective story bits.
I was just going to write about how relaxing the athmosphere and running around far removed from the whole world in this quasi-silence when I was told to do all that in 03:00 minutes with 50 letters XD Needless to say, I haven't reached he record yet but am willing to come back to try again. The for me had no performance issues, the animations and controlling the character felt really responsive and comfortable.
Really compelling game! The vibe and mechanics reminded me of Inscryption in a really good way. I couldn't get the game into fullscreen mode on itch.io. Also the window it opens up in on the itch.io page is quite large so that I had to scale down my browser to see more or less the entirety of it's visual content. Question: Does the game have an enging or is it just randomly generating encounters until you die? Really good choice of music. Would be deserving of custom music though in my opinion as every other element is really working great. If you decide to add that at some point feel free to reach out!
Really enjoyed the voice acting, reminded me of our own project for this jam XD Great concept, good execution, pretty challenging! Haven't beaten it yet, gonna try to get free friends and come back to it.
A truly hilarious game! I wonder if there's some kind of a story/lore behind this apparently druk idiot stumbling his way towards grannys birthday party delivering the cake... For real though, props for what you accomplished in only 20h! Am interested in hwat the finished version will look like.
I really enjoyed design of the sprites, also the animation of the character getting melted was really well done. It was quite challenging to jump onto anything, maybe the jump hight could use some tweaking. Also the player character sometimes (especially when standing on the first robot) to remain in his run cycle even though he wasn't going anywhere. The music captures the feel of this little soul up against the all-devouring unfeeling machinery pretty well but is a bit taxing on the ears to the point where I had to lower the volume quite a bit. Maybe cutting some of the highs a little bit down via EQ could be an idea. All in all. Nice game and really good Art!
Even though I am not typically into this kind of game, I really enjoyed the athmosphere the laid-back Synth-Piano Ttrack created. The lack of any text or descriptions after the menu screen really furthered this meditative feeling the game oozes. To be honest, I would have loved for every pattern to reveal some kind of image or or beautiful shape by finishing it but sadly this was only the case for some. Maybe in a future additin. All in all quite meditative. Well done!
Finally solved it! Very nice Concept but truly a difficult puzzle (took me around 55 minutes, without hints). I like the title, the music is mostly finde though there are some weird tings in the strings occurring (productionwise) from time to time which can take you a bit out of the experience.
Very nice game! And challenging at that (haven't yet made it all the way through despite trying multiple times). I noticed one bug, where the UI randomly moved halfway through the top of the screen so it only was half visible. Also throwing the beer into the designated areas is sometimes quite tricky. It's a bit disorienting that you can throw things of the map and ofen walk of it but not interact with beer you threw to the edge of the map where it's still visible. Really nice combat system! All in all I really enjoyed it and might come back to try claiming all 20 beers (my right knee is still bobbing to the great music btw. great choice!)
Really nice game! Especially enjoyed the art of the poor mouse carrying the backpack und the music. I find the idea of how the backpack was implemented very interesting: Pulling out stuff was a bit tedious/clunky at times, especially when the stuff you pull out doesnÄt fly in the direction you want it to and have almost no way of influencing that. Truly the worst job but fitting for a poor mouse hireling ;)
Very nice music and sound design. You truly feel like being the woods or some green grassy meadow.
Same here, versy beautiful banner but wasn't able to start the game ("No interface") Also after reload. I hope I get a chance later.
VGM Composer here. Really nice roguelike! Sadly the game was silent for me, even after several reloads . If that wasn't a bug, maybe consider adding a non-intrusive music track with to enhance the mood of your game (for example sth. like the Track "Village" from the Original RuneScape soundtrack, if you're searching for Custom Music, hit me up, maybe I can help you with that.). Thanks for the nice experience and good luck in the rating :)
All in all a really great mood. I personally really liked the design of the small city. Solid game and (Tuck me three times to beat.) Really liked it!
Nice idea combining the two game modes! I really enjoyed the sprite art of the train and the plateaus floating by. The first textbox in the second part came and went so quickly that I sadly could'nt read it. The second part - where you have to go through the seven deliveries - feels a bit tedious and long, as it repeats the same assets in a (random ?) succession. The Music does create an effectively dreadful mood, though the the volume of the loud parts could maybe be turned down just a notch (if the music is on full power for too long, it becomes a bit exhausting).
That said, once I got the hang of it and what the game wanted me to do, it became a quite almost meditative experience. Nice work, if a little drown out, but nice work nonetheless! Didn't reach the end yet (despite trying multiple times) but will come back to it :)
I really enjoyed the mood created by the music and the ocean ambience. Sometimes the random resource change disables you from selling your cargo anywhere on the map which for my Crew led to starvation. Otherwise nice work, definitely enjoyed it.
Ein richtiges Gesamtkunstwerk. Hab sehr den Mood und die Post-Eule gefeiert! Art und Musik echt gut:) Respekt!

Really enjoyed the wholesome mood of this storytelling experience. Although I didn't understand the whole plot and the connection to the theme I thoroughly enjoyed your entry.
