the graphics are quite good! Combination of objects yields a very good looking universe. Wish there are more lives!! difficult to earn money and buy something before I died... Besides, the bullet burn power up is somewhat like a debuff...not effective at killing enemies while increasing ammo consumption.
Easy to start, but fun! not too hard to play through, though. Maybe you could add more options and challenges for manipulation of the soldiers
The management is fun! It might be better if digging brings something useful powerups for the player. And after some level ups, player's army value always dominates the enemy, and the waves seem more like a boost for ant numbers
So COOL!!!!!
That training video is awesome!! also reminds me of the style that Fallout uses. I have to die several times to get to know all the patterns of 5 stations. maybe a few minutes for first-time players is desirable.
Fun game!! Was about give 6 stars in fun catogory, but I took one star off for the Inverse Control buff. I just hate it ;D
Fantastic graphics and gameplay!! also very difficult. After many trials I finally get 200+ haha
difficult but fun! after trying a few times, i reached a high wall which i can't get through. is this the end of the level?
i feel this game has a lot of potential given the difficult and challenge it offers. hoping to play more levels of it
Nice mood. Effective graphics and music. My favorite is the upgrade system, which makes big difference from how you choose the upgrade.
Interesting control! Easy to learn and fun. might be more fun if adding more environment variations, like some walls for hiding or blocking.
Nice concept. It is not easy to do double taps. I need to press it really quickly
Very well designed stages! they are fun and challenging. The tutorial stages are a bit long, but after that it really gets interesting!
plus, maybe you should tell people that you can't just fall onto the finish line and win. I tried for about 10 times at stage 1 before I realized that i should roll instead of jump.
Fun warming little game! Nice audio and graphics, easy to play and fun. Maybe adding more types of terrains(like ice or wind) will improve this?
seems interesting. but maybe you should include a HOW TO PLAY in either the game or introduction. I tried for some time, but haven't figured out how to play this.
Awesome level and shooting design. Plenty enemy types. Great work! I was looking forward to encountering a boss at final area :D Most of the time I could just kill the enemies one by one and it wasnt too hard. Maybe you could add some stages or traps to make the pace more exciting!
One problem about the audio: If I hold my mouse button, the shooting sound will play for many times, which produces an unpleasant sound effect.
thx for the comment! I liked the music too :D
To CustomPhase: Thanks for advice :D ! Indeed they aren't very satisfactory. I guess I have to work harder on my graphics in the future.
To Monetai: Haha indeed! My teammates and I also fail the level quite often. You need a bit of luck to pass the level :D
@bigbeautiful 谁家的孩纸丢这儿了 = =|||
@Aerohand well that seems to happen quite often... should have added a mechanism to get the earth back. However, sometimes you can win by pushing the earth out at the right time :D
@krashja I have the same feeling!! :D
@Taldius Thanks! The plot twist wasn't in our plan actually. pushing the earth was as an accidental bug :D Then we got inspired and added the boss fight.
pretty nice concept. the collision is a little weird. sometimes dragging a viking causes my character to fly with him if near. Adding more variations might make this game more fun
hahahaha ……
DUANG!!! hahahaha
There are pretty potential with this mechanics. if you could lower the difficulty a bit (it grows too quickly) and add more content like scores and music, i think this will be a very fun game.
The first music game i saw in LD. Nice work! love the player-friendly space control. If the music could have more variations (like adding bass when space is not pressed) i guess it will be more exciting to play.
pretty fun and engaging!! Hoping to see more of this game!
the graphics is so cool
cutest w, a and mouse!! the control is very comfortable. Wait, there are two 'a's. Does it mean that w has got two lovers and is playing the field? ;D
cute game! the graphics style is very interesting. A little surprised when I found that red button can destroy missiles wherever they are: easier than I thought! :D Maybe you can add more difficulty here.
Nice graphics. Also the interactions with items is amazing. could add some feedback like sound effect when hit the enemy
Nice audio and control. Also the levels are quite difficult. And there is one question: how can I possibly fall off cliff in space? hahaha :D
very nice mood. the cat style really amuses me :D
cute character! not sure if the goal is to suck everything? Adding more constraints like a suck cooldown might make the game more challenging.
hahahah ~ the picture is so cute …… but i don't know why i cannot play the game ~
nice story, nice music. The character is cute too. Adding some new mechanisms like power ups might help
nice story, nice music. The character is cute too. Adding some new mechanisms like power ups might help
I love the story and voice!!! also the art is awesome! I guess you could add some excitement in the gameplay, which may add more fun to the overall management
I love this idea! Easy to play and very fun!! There are some problems with physics engine i guess. When my characters get hit by snow or something, they are pushed up instead of going down. Besides, as long as I taps two key, there is little chance to fail. which make it a bit too easy. Nice work and wish to see more!
In my point of view, this is a top game! Smooth and reasonable controlling, and easy to get addicted. Don't know whether others have the feeling, but I think fire grapple(LMB) and pulling(RMB) are logically more similar, and withdraw graple(LMB) seems the opposite, perhaps you could try rearranging the controls? It took me a while to get used to the controlling. Also the game's difficulty is real :D
Excellent work! Congrats!
One of the great things that I find in this game, is that after wandering for like 10 minite(i kept it in the background and did something else), I looked up to the sky, then it presents a unique view with the sky surrounded by tree tops. This game surely creates a nice mood! 2.png
Thanks for the feedback! @slimabob It's very encouraging ;)
@the-neon-shark Thx for visiting! btw, your game made my day haha!
@blanky-and-rocket Nice point there! I guess the controlling really needs some adjustment so it feels more comfortable to play with, which is overlooked after I fit things to the theme. Thx for the feedback! ;)
@eryn Thx for feedback! Should've polish the game more so you could have better experience. It's great you guys like it despite its unpolished state ;)
@aerolink Thank you for playing! Yep I get the same feeling that animation and sound should be added for better experience. It's sad that I spent hours trying the procedural animation stuff and failed T^T
@jyrio Thanks for your feedback! Trying to get this dive and bouyancy mechanics work, but guess it could be much better if given more time for tweaking...
@tomtomgome Thx for playing and comment! Mouse control really requires time to polish, maybe next time I'll try keyboard first ;P Besides, being a cat-lover myself, I love your cat game! :)
@rongefilet I'm happy that you enjoyed this game! ;)
@freezerbot Thanks for feedback! I'll patch the water up next, good point :)
@corruptor2037 Haha nice point there! I should've put a collision boundary there for realistic sake :D
@mandarad Thanks for your feedback! Now every time I replays my own game, I come to realize that the controlling issue that you guys mentioned couldn't be more true haha. Shall spend some time to rework on the controlling later
@eugenik Thank you for playing! It's my honor that your grandma like this game ;)
@sacredbacon Yep the 3rd fish is the final one. Thanks for beating this game! :D
@gyemelmor Thx for playing! Yep I will give it a remake when I got time (as a game programmer in big company I have little time to do my own game programming, true story T^T)
@tevasliutauras Thanks for the feedback! Indeed the game is too rough to be enjoying for now, and it will probably need a decent rework :)
@xpoho спасибо за отзыв! В моем представлении эта птица, вероятно, представляет собой журавля с красной короной, однако по графике это сложно сказать.:)
@andrewaprice Thanks for playing! Yes as the game proceeds the mass and strength of the bird changes, but it hasn't been tweaked very well. Some efforts are needed for better implementation of the controls.
Unlocked all the cats. A lot of details worth mentioning about this game, such as the nuuuuuu sound after you comforted a cat, haha! I bet the maker of this game is very familiar with cats. The animations, music and the various hilarious effects make this game really fun!
Really nice mood for this game! Also, the short stories on the note are insteresting and make me wonder about what really happened. The storytelling suits the theme as myth are slowly uncovered toward the end. Perhaps there could be more story and characters!
Nice game! I love the part when you take risk for greater treasure. Also when you get deeper, the sea and light changes accordingly. Nice detail!
No doubt a fabulous game! Almost perfect with the solid gameplay and content. A small bug: sometimes when you attack the air, some bat corpse would appear no where
Great game! Challenging and a lot of details. I especially like the black humor! :D
Nice combat system. pretty solid to play with! The only problem is that camera shakes a little bit too often, making me feel a little dizzy after playing a while. Great work!
I rate the mood 5 stars because the difficulty really makes me angry, haha! Just can't stop but beat this game. Sound Effect is great!
The mechanics is pretty clear. Very successful in creating the inside body environment and mood! I think I travelled pretty deep, but got caught by the ceiling and died... Wondering what the ending might be..
Definitely solid writings from historical and psychological perspective. With a few knowledge about psychology and Hilter's stories, I could tell that the game surely puts a lot of details inside, which makes it very realisitc even if its novel story. Great job!
Also the graphics is impressive!
Nice storytelling! The puzzle and exploration is very smooth.
Excellent mood! I really get caught/scared by the wolf several times even if I know where it would show up.
The sound really adds up to the pressure.
Excellent Game! The graphics and music are really nice. Great cutscene!
Nice graphics, Smooth playing, Also the sound effect isn't bad bro! Wish there are more variety of enemies and mechanics!
It is surprising that a lot of content is made in 3 days: build system, marine environment and animation, earn and spend cycle.. I especially like the forgiving pace of the game, which makes me feel rather relaxed and dont have to worry much about effiency when building.
some optimization for control and UI might be favored. The tools might be hard to pick when dropped together, and sometimes they are hard to find when blending with the environment.
Beautiful writings!
Nice work! Simple but still gets the feel of an exploration puzzle game. The BGM is one of my favorite :D
The greatness of graphics and battle is nothing less than its difficulty! :P Wow it even gets its production level cutscene, cool man!
Though it can be screen-throwing when you get instant killed before landing...
Nice work! Personally I think it might be viable to reduce the difficulty a little: when you mess things up, the game is not over but the player get punished until everything gets out of control(Like overcook did)
Graphics and Audio is great!
Nice work! It's interesting when you think about next steps to take, as some paths might seem possible at the start but lead to defeat. Maybe it's better to make the collisions more tolerable (i.e. the colliders are smaller than they look), as I died many times when I think there might be enough room for this jelly.
Life is hard for jellies! :D
Music and mood is awesome. Loneliness, nervous but also tranquility. Storytelling is great too! those character painting looks really cute, adding much warmth to the heavy story. Looking forward to further stories about the ending. Wish that old man could get better things happening to him..
I knew people would say "I knew"! haha nice work!
Fun to play and great replayability. Great potential for a roguelike survive game!
The retro graphics and audio is simple but effective, creating a great retro atomosphere.
The nearer distance to bottom, the faster speed: something consistent with Physics law, as well as creating a new mechanics. Interesting!
I found that press space 3 times and move to top will quickly beat the game with score 0, which is a bit weired. It might be better to set a minimum score threshold?
Incredible work! Graphics, mood, audio are production quality!
Glad to see that im not the only one looking for different endings ;)
Pretty fun game. The hop control is interesting and quite unexpected. the mechanics is easy to understand and learn. I tried a few times looking for gold wheat rigorously but they are difficult to find. Then I realized that the thing is to stay near and keep alive, and wait for the gold wheat to spawn!
The graphics and scene is great! Amazing atmosphere with the night, wheatland, and fog!
@zyper Thank you for playing and feeback! :)
@fnkee That is a great encouragement for me! Thanks for plyaing! ;)
@dob Nice observation. You gain 50 score for perfect and 10 score for miss and inaccurate stars. The penalty for miss is weak and the timing is not strict, for less frustration (as the code for timing logic is not that accurate) I guess this makes this game more of a short animation rather than a rhythm game, which could be improved indeed.
Thanks for your feedback ;)
@rockford Thanks for playing! Good point there, indeed I found it quite difficult to make a clear indication. The bar was a panic compromise after some struggle XD
@clyde Thank you for commenting! nice dream ;)
@alec-cunningham Thanks for playing and suggestion! :D yes the difficulty level needs some fine tuning for better feedback. I'll probably take some time figuring it out.
@smashcrate Thanks for playing and encouragement :D
@captaindreamcast Thank you for trying this game!;)
@cactusnyak Thanks for playing! This is my first attempt to make some song arrangement, and it's great to hear your encrouagement.
@poietic-ruby Thanks for playing! The coding part is fine, just hard-coding and monekey patch everywhere ;)
@papaya Thanks for feedback! yes a score counter or progress indicator(like a percentage) would be nice to add.
@tanis Thank you for your comment and suggestion! Indeed lack of challenge and off-beat would be the major problems that impact player experience. good point there! ;)
@ekoxe I love these funky flowers too ;) I was planing for some water color painting art, but still it turns out as programmer art haha Thanks for playing!
@cogcomp Thanks for playing! Totally agree about the difficulty issue. Wish I had enough time fine tuning that...
@eddrw Thanks for playing! It is great that you enjoyed this game :)
@caeonosphere Thanks for playing and feedback! I barely composed anything before, but it turns out that mixing up some song that I already knew is super fast. Just some simple beat, bass, and trying out some flutes and strings, and I got some piece that sounds not bad :D
@luhuchiha Thank you for playing!
@mahalis Good point! It should be better to develop further the "season change" idea, or add something that makes player feel "complete" or "over". Originally I just did the petals drifting to be consistent with the music endings. :)
@grid96 Thanks for playing! That's a good point :D too bad unity doesn't support C
That's a lot of content for a 48h game! nice art and music, huge map and a great variety of monsters. I would suggest a teleport home function. I went too far and cannot find way home...
The background story is very interesting. Also there is alreay a good enough start and ending, as well as some triggers and dialogues working. not bad for a project with limited time. If you throw in a few battles and some dialogues, this will be a pretty complete experience ;)
This game is truly impressing! I love the how the plot goes and the mood is great!
Nice graphics and art style. It would be nice if score counter or some bonus further enhance the feedback.
Fun and very balanced mechanics, Great graphics and music. The plant action provides greater risk and gain, combined with enemy waves, this creates some interesting strategy and play styles. Great work!
I guess more upgrades and enemy variety could be added for more in depth combat experience? Current enemy only chase and attack, so I focused on not getting surrounded, while use ranged attack to weaken them before they approach. Aside from more hp, maybe you could harvest some weapon or cooldown upgrades from them, or even some rougelike style combos!
Great art! both the sprites and music are nice. Enjoyable to play. The bugs are kind of pushy though, as they spawn from the beginning and every few seconds, before I could get all things done. Kind of wish there could be some rest intervals.
great graphics and pretty good shooting experience, well done!
Wonderful work! the flinger system brings interesting challenges and tactics. It is also more tricky to get everything in order. It is easy to build up one or two simple pipeline working, but diffculty arises when space beside market is occupied, or the fruit path intersects, etc. Overall very playable and fun, good job!
always slayed by my garden :D very fun game and smooth graphics!
The tension is great even without any sound. This could get really scary if you add some voice acting!
The rubbing effect is well made and satisfying!
Really fun game! the mechanics is well developed and addicting! Good Job!
Great graphics! even extra score for furry character sketches!
One of my favorites!
Nice and solid. The controls are really smooth! Would be nice if there is some bigger challenge after the few nights.
The art style is nice, which reminds me some amazing windows retro games many years ago. The plant-harvest-rich mechanics works fine. This is a pretty good starting point for a sims genre game.
Besides, maybe you should try packing the game as exe, or use some online python support for distribution. I managed to run the game after installing pygame and adding an encoding comment in the code, but this might be too difficult for non-programmers.
I would say that this is a production level graphics!
Great art and smooth gameplay, well done!
Very fun to play. Impressed by the puzzles and mechanics. Elegant design!
Great writings! The mood overall is very emotional. For me the story naturally blends in strong feeling of sorrow, reflecting upon similar experiences. It is quite successful in mood in my opinion. The A/B side narration is interesting too, and I think you may add more perspective information for each sides.
The drawing are really cute, and fits in perfectly with the overall graphics. Clever use of sprites with 3D models. Story is nice. I wish there would be more stories, great potential!
Amazing animation!(Including the death anim) Also the music and SFX is neat and nice.
The combat and feedback is suprisingly good. This game is one of the few games that attract me with the combat. It will be much better if the hero can attack faster, more responsive, or with greater range. now it is too difficult to hit as desired, especially with countless enemy knockbacks.
The graphics is great, and the gameplay and controls is very smooth. Good job!
Solid mechanics and challenging to play, nice graphics too. I tried focusing on fight but soon get overwhelmed by enemy. Avoiding combat and focusing on harvesting seems the easiest strategy. Maybe add some tuning so combat is more rewarding?
Super fun game! nice work!
I have never been so nervous of chicken in my life. I could feel my hand shaking when trying to sneak near them. Simple but fun; great mood and comfortable controls. good job!
