That was stressful!
The art and the idea are both great. The programming was perfectly executed except for a some minor collider issues.

@hauo Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the use of the theme wasn't the most creative. We tried to improve this with the boss (which attempts to trap the player into the oil).
Remove slashes and replace link with a file and then this is the formatting.

@posho
I love the fan art as well!
Thanks for the review @cassio-eduardo @stegobubbles
Powerups are a good idea. We'll definitely keep it in mind.
Fun game! Very innovative and fun.
I played this game for about five minutes and I only found one key though. It also took me a while to work out how to change the room data to drop. But that's okay for a jam.
Overall this is definitely one of the top games I've seen.
This game looks really fun! Please make a mac version :)
ah okay :/
Great game! I played it during Tiger_J's stream. One of the most fun games I've played in LD!
It's a good game :)
A slightly easier to understand tutorial would have been appreciated as it took a lot of reading to get the hang of it, but once I worked out how to play it was fun.
That was a perfect example of a good Ludum Dare game. Short, sweet and cute.
I wish it was a couple minutes longer!
Nice game. I think the middle could have been filled with some pictures to represent the items you have. 3 pictures of an apple at the start for example.
Yeah that makes sense it was just a suggestion for the future. The game was still fun without them :)
Nice simple game with good replayability! I would have made the background panel slightly less transparent as I didn't notice the icons next to the buttons for a few turns.
Really nice atmosphere! I love how you created a unique artstyle just from post processing, although the chromatic abberation was a bit much.
I didn't really understand the theme part, I thought the player always had the same level of power.
I really like this game. Great idea and almost perfect execution. Hard to find something to give feedback on! My biggest complaint would be that I have to guess what the text says in some places. Maybe a more rigid UI would be better.
JAL_7 here. Game is fun! Highlights for me were the sound effects and the general aztec aesthetic :)
I love this game! Very innovative, I love the different bullet types and modes. I want to see a full game of this!
The game looks amazing but the mac version can't be opened :/
Is the game made in Unity?
Mac version works :) Thanks for building one.
can you make a mac version :)
Your game was pretty fun. I had no issues with the screen on my mac. I liked the concept, the writing was well done and the audio was a very nice touch.
I didn't have any issues that weren't already said above, but I now hate frogs :/
A fun game :) Feels like Papers Please with a better story. The light flickering was a nice touch that really helped to give the game a moody apocalyptic feel. A small bug I noticed is that's it's possible for a character to have the same trait twice.
@hindbodes thats a good suggestion, I always Cmd Q everything so I didn't think to add it, but your right it would be a good thing to have.
@dazzumbledor yeah it sucks that I couldn't really complete the mood. I found that a lot of the sound effect generators made sound that was too cartoony and not dark enough for my game. I would have loved a music person but I wanted to submit to compo. Thanks for the feedback!
Amazing game! I went back and found your old post to play this game and I was not disappointed. Simple game loop, fun premise and a beautiful aesthetic. The newspaper got me a bit sad though :(.
I liked your game. The sound effects, sci-fi background and minimalist menus were my favourite parts. I would have liked if the enemies were a bit smarter, but I understand the time difficulties of LD :)
Pretty good game. Some very nice 2d art.
That is a harsh interpretation of the theme. You made the wolves too cute!
My biggest problem with the game was that I didn't see that I could eat the wolves as the message went away almost immediately. If I didn't read the description I wouldn't have learnt about the mechanic.
Great game! I loved the unorthodox movement, while I didn't always feel in control everytime I lost a cube it felt like it was my mistake and not an issue with the movement. There was a very easy learning curve and an obvious goal. My only issue came from the camera follow - following a dead cube for too long, especially in important sections.
Great game! I wanted to play this one since I saw it on the main feed :)
@evan-overly can you link the short?
Fun game. The restart mechanic was a bit broken with deaths on start or very slow rolling
Good interpretation of the theme, sound is working nicely, the currency system could use a bit of improvement.
Great game! I was disappointed to find the coins capped at 99 because I wanted to build my fortune
Nice game mechanic and messagee. An ending where you could lose would have been nice
Oh that makes sense :)
I really like the idea. Matches the theme well. Voices are good.. Well done!
Would love to play this if you make a mac version
@Quaternius it works.
Great idea and the graphics and audio are almost perfect.
Beautiful game. Very calming art and music. A bit of a hint to what the different seeds do would have been useful.
Very creative idea. 5/5 in theme. It did take me a minute to work out where I was going, because the border between players looks like a wall
Brilliant game!
Nice relaxing game. The low poly island, audio and fonts all feel very thought through. One improvement I would suggest is making the dialogue more "dating sim" then "fetch me stuff".
Thanks for making a mac version!
One of the best games I've played yet. You've definitely won the "Mood" category for this jam.
Using my voice to activate the boost is a great idea, but I think you should have an opt-out for this feature, because it's weird to play this game with other people nearby.
love the idea!
Went from being a little bored to scared to laughing all in about three seconds when I first saw the monster. Great work on the audio.
If I were to find a problem with it, it would be that I stuck to the walls a bit.
Game looks good! I'd give it a go if there was a web or mac version
Turned based platformer! Great take on the theme. Loving the invisible platforms as well.
Nice cute game. You did a good job on the sound effects.
Nice beginner game. Learning Unity is definitely worth it :)
Fun game. I found the hitting the ball very satisfying for some reason. It would be cool if this game had a league feature to up the stakes of each game.
@Shoj92 Yeah I knew about this problem since Day 1, but I couldn't increase trackpad sensitivity (easily) without making mouse sensitivity too fast.
@Shoj92 Yeah, I definitely should have added a menu for sound/sensitivity/quitting.
@Nash thanks for the info on virus protection.
@Nash can you do me a big favour and just check if the new windows version works?
Nice music and idea!
I love the two games at the same time. Really surprised with how fun it is. 5/5 for that.
Could be improved with better graphics and more minigames.
Funny game idea and a nice execution.
The macOS build leads to the Windows Build. Game looks cool though so @ me when I can play
@Cryovr the Dropbox link still is a .rar file so I can't open it
It works now. Great game, rocket movement was very fun.
