This was fun, feels like the perfect scope for a game jam. Love the art style, and the character is very charming.
You really nailed the mood on this one. I enjoyed the plug mechanic, feels like I was moving with purpose. The difficulty ramp was quite steep, like comparing the difficulty of level 1 to 2 felt like a big jump. I think it would be nice to have levels to learn about each enemy and after that start combining them. But once I got past that second level and understood each enemy I had a lot of fun, the music is great, the vibe is great, it feels good to play. Well done!
I enjoyed figuring out how this works and trying to build the optimal routes. It feels exciting to see the 10x and 100x at the edge of the area. Makes me want to expand and get crazy numbers. The music fits the game well too.
What a crazy game, I barricaded myself in a room and could hear the squeaks surround me, surprisingly terrifying but extremely fun experience. I'm a bit scared I might hear the squeaks as I try to sleep tonight. Awesome game well done!!
Awesome game, it looks incredible and I love the cute little sounds the ghost makes. Well done!
This was a fun game. Feels like you got so much made in such a short time, I'm impressed. I really like the idea of controlling the waiter while also making the food. Sadly the game crashed after I tried to click on the stove after picking up an egg. Not sure what happened there. Anyways great game, good job!
A lot of people like games where they can identify with the hero of the story. This game did that for me, I felt like I was him and that he was me. This game hit really close to home and I think it will for a lot of other people. Well done, this game changed my life. Thank you.
I loved all the different weapon types. Some of them forcing you to go closer to the enemy and others not. Super cool game man. I love bullet hells and I love the glowy bullets in this. Well done!!
What a great game name! Love the art, great idea, feels super fun. Only criticism I have is when the game is waiting for you to make your move everything is completely still. There you could add some kind of way to show that its waiting for you to make your move. Maybe the camera is slightly like pulsating like a slowly beating heart or something. Anyways thats just nitpicking, super well done!!
Awesome game! Took me a while to realize I could switch between syringes with 1, 2, 3, 4 haha. But after that the game got really fun! It was pretty easy in the beginning but then it gets pretty crazy and it felt really fun! I got a score of 14.1k! Really cool game, well done!
Love the graphics, love the little witty comments the computer makes haha. Fun game and well done!!!
The audio is incredible. I loved the whole feel of the game, reminds me of metal gear solid. The voice acting was so cool and the gameplay felt super fun. Well done man!
I see we had very similar ideas for our games haha! I love the idea of getting more and more weapons and each of them firing off at the end of a timer. Thats very cool. I love the sound effects and the gameplay felt really nice. Great game well done!
The music is awesome haha. Really cool concept with the theme! I wish I could see the time counting down while playing and it would maybe say like "X seconds until flood" or something, but other than that really good game! Well done!
This is an amazing game!!! Loved the constant ticking it felt so cozy. Super cool idea and incredible execution, well done!!!
Just realized I forgot to change the name in the menu… ignore that.
Love the feedback! I agree I should've added some kind of counter or some combo system to let you know how you're doing, that would've been perfect!
Incredible game!! Looks amazing, and the mechanics are super interesting.
Only thing I would change would be instead of cycling through the different options I would have a button for each option instead. But I do really like the one button style. Even though it takes a while to get used to. You could even combine some of the controls into one, for example if you want to move an object you hold the button for a short while, and it gets picked up.
Anyways you did an incredible job and this is definitely the best game I've played so far in this jam!!!
I love the concept and the gameplay feels very smooth. The mechanic is very easy to learn but has a high skill ceiling. I have the highscore on pro so I can basically say I'm a pro at this game. Amazing game, well done!!
Cool idea and nice execution. Very frustrating but still a super fun game haha, well done!
Awesome game man! I love the look, and the shaders look super cool. Its a bit hard when jumping on the after-10-seconds-platforms, cause you cant see your shadow on them. But other than that I love the concept!! Well done man!
Tetris is one of my favorite games ever, so naturally I love these types of games. I love the limit of space and the fact that you can pick up the blocks allows for so much more complexity. Super impressive for your first game, cant wait to see what you make next! Well done!
Really nice atmosphere you managed to create in such a short time! The game looks really good, the voice acting and audio overall is super nice. And you had a good tutorial in the beginning! Well done!
I love bullet hell games! I'm a big fan of ROTMG, maybe you've played it? I like the different styles that the bullets fly in, and it felt very satisfying flying through and dodging everything. It was cool how the levels switched. Overall really nice and neat game! Well done! (Btw we named our games the same name, great minds think alike!)
I just have to say the night time was pretty scary.
Awesome game! I like the art style, the UI was sometimes a bit hard to work with. Like it would place a turret automatically when I didn't want it to. But I got pretty far! And it had a nice learning curve like how I should spend my money. The music and sound effects were very nice as well. I really like that you're like stealing the drones packages, that just sounds like a fun idea and you executed it well. Really nice game man, well done!
I loved this so much. The combos punch combos are really satisfying, the bullets were fun to dodge, the art and animation was incredible. Very nice game, well done!
One of my favorites so far. Love the art style so much. Super fun to shoot and super satisfying. An online leaderboard would be super nice with this, if you keep working on it. You did an incredible job! Well done! 12f55a4bde01d31e1908f14870d3789f.png
Really nice game! The mini-games were fun. Took me a couple tries but I finished it! 266814d469a3ebf574dd804bb9786188.png
I really like this game, physics based stuff is really fun! Felt like really good difficulty progression, like just as I get used to jumping in with the boxes you forbid it! So I had to find a new playstyle. Overall really nice and neat game! Well done!
Really fun idea! I like the penguin and when he slides on his belly. Cool that you can upgrade and buy more stuff for the kitchen. Felt a bit overwhelmed when so much food was appearing, like I couldnt keep up. But managed to do it anyway! Something you could add is maybe a way to drag stuff! Could be cool. This has some really nice potential, hope you keep working on it!
Great game, loved the narration. The music was nice too. It felt satisfying when you deliver something. Well done!
This is a really fun idea, feels like one of those classic flash games. Such a nice premise too, I've always wanted to be a porch pirate!!
I have to be honest, I was stuck on level 5 for a longer time than I'd like to admit. I was so used to not stepping on the flowers. I thought I couldn't avoid the dog noticing me, so I tried to kill off the dog, first tried to run into traffic with it following me, so a car would hit the dog and I would be free to get the package. I wasn't able to pull it off.
I also tried to get the granny to shoot the dog but that didn't work (would be really funny if it did). Then while trying to trample the flowers for the granny I finally realized the dog didnt notice me when I ran that far up...
So that was my little level 5 adventure, anyways, incredible game!!! Well done, feels super polished. The music is super nice and overall it gets 5/5 for me!
Really interesting puzzle idea! Once I got a hang of it, its very fun when you do it right! Nice game well done!
I love a good bossfight. The game also looks incredible!
This was a really nice small game! Felt like you could understand the challenge pretty easily at the start, then figure out how everything works. At the end I realized I could just click on stuff to make it completely still, and that made it a lot easier! Nice game well done!
Really cool idea! I got very into it!!! The AI was suprisingly good too. The controls were easy to understand, and what each spell does. Great game! Well done! [7265641cd7a1d6f64899cba25db3045a.png](///raw/759/a/z/5af44.png)
Nice and clean puzzle game! You introduce each concept super well! I really enjoyed this, well done!
I really enjoyed this game! It feels super polished. Could work just as well on a phone! I loved the art style it reminded me of Puzzle Agent. One addition I would suggest, is maybe some kind of warning sound that the belts are about to switch order, cause sometimes I would click right as its switching and that would be the reason I failed. But anyways really enjoyed this!!! Super cool game man, well done!
9d3a92b756ef78bab0a04f0b5719c59d.png
I love a good combo system, the voice lines were super fun. I really wanted to impress the guy. Overall great game, well done!
Really cool game! The art is really nice. The music is nice. I like these kinds of management games and this was a really good one!
I really like the music! This was a fun game, with some nice progression. The last level was stressful but fun when you figure it out! Nice neat game, well done!
Super cool game! The upgrades were really nice. The art is really nice. I was also thinking a medieval mail thing wold be really cool! I think this was a good execution of that! A cool addition would maybe be if you could hire some NPC characters to work for you. So you could like grow a mail business. Maybe the town expands and stuff like that. Anyways, super cool game well done! 0d32aacb51ee0295ddf16dea612e4a6d.png
I need to know what Calvins idea was! (Incredible game btw)
Super cool game! I was a bit confused in the beginning but slowly got the hang of it and finally got one with 100% correct! I also like the relaxing music! Feels like I'm a real postman!
Cool game! Was a bit annoying when I had no choice but to jump on a shaking platform. But otherwise really nice, felt like I had some tactics going and it was fun to outsmart the AI's
I LOVED THIS GAME, such a good puzzle concept. Super satisfying once you figure out the best solution for the levels. Gold all around! level.png
I'm assuming this is the end of the game? I cant seem to do anything here. Anyways really cool idea! Super nice visuals and I loved the intro cutscene! 769e8da52828cde65a49b452d86857b6.png
(btw if thats the end its really funny and I can relate)
Really cool game! The graphics are super cute and its very satisfying to get upgrades!
@oadt Thanks for playing my game! I really wanted to add another mechanic, I had some cool ideas for it but sadly didn't have time. (Started on the game in with 14 hours left)
Maybe it was bugged but there is a restart button in the bottom left of the screen! I probably should've made it bigger, but like you said I added it just in case people get stuck in an unsolvable state.
I'll have a look at what's wrong on Firefox, hopefully not a big issue. Anyways thanks for the feedback!!
@oadt Weird, this is what it looks like for me https://imgur.com/HDRJzlq
Super cool idea!! When I first noticed that parallax was going to be the game mechanic I was very impressed. Then when you show that I can also control the parallax like that I was even more astonished! Well done!
Loved this game! Balancing between collecting and saving fuel and trying to prioritize the worm holes was really fun and it setup some very epic moments! Really good use of particle effects too, the powerups and the fire coming out of the spaceship was really satisfying. Only feedback I would give is to make the powerups push away the space debris when close enough, kind of like how the space debris bounce on eachother, so you never end up with impossible to get fuel. Also I had a hard time seeing some of the small satellites since it was black on black. But overall this is an amazing game and I could play it for hours trying to master it! Well done!
This has been my favorite game to play so far. I think you nailed the gameplay! I love that there's no extra step to buy you just cast the glyph and it just works. I love that you can die and respawn in your home, I loved conquering all the other little enemy homes. There's a lot of small details you added to make the game smoother to play, like slowing it down while you draw, and all the little effects when you power up your minions. I really liked it man I can see that you put a lot of love and effort into this.
Love the idea of summoning fighters with different abilities to help you survive. I also love dodging games so this was fun. Some feedback: I think simplifying the controls would help a lot. I would for example put the health and mana buttons a bit closer to WASD.
oilgame.PNG I really enjoyed this game. It was fun to try to find a good spawning strategy.
it took me way too long to realize I was supposed to put the upgrades on the stumps haha. I might just be slow but that could potentially be shown when hovering over an upgrade item to maybe show some outlines or some indicators over each empty stump. So then you see the information of what the upgrade does as well as where you could put it. Either way 5/5 game, you guys nailed it.
I loved the minigames!
@mathieuspooky @marineplb @pierre-cilluffo Hey do you mind sharing what platform or browser you played it on? Seems like drawing might not work on some browser, but we haven't really found what the issue stems from yet.
@pierre-cilluffo Thank you! Let me know if it works!
@mathieuspooky @pierre-cilluffo alright I'm working on a fix for this, I have an idea of what might be causing it. Will hopefully fix tonight!
@pierre-cilluffo @marineplb @mathieuspooky @7uc4s Drawings not being recognized is now fixed in the itch.io version!! Also fixed softlocking issue. It should run a lot smoother now hopefully. Let me know if it works!
It took me a couple hours to find the reason for the bug. But due to how some browsers read strings or numbers or something the XML parser for the shape training data was causing bugs with float.Parse. So had to add some parameters to that call… WHAT A NIGHTMARE!
@smogen it should work a lot better now on itch.io! The third one is my favorite so I highly recommend you try it again! :)
@wandering-composer did you try the version on itch.io? You should be able to play there!
I really loved the variation of minigames, it felt like I was crunching for a deadline. Loved the psycho guy jumpscare and the geography game. I was a bit confused at the ones where you have to for example write three colors, but once I understood it was a really fun one too and felt like a real task my coworker would ask from me. Also all the small details and jokes were amazing, so much attention to detail! 5/5
This one took me a while to complete, first had to figure out that only the carrot can damage the ghost, and then figure out all the costs to get to the final level. And then figure out the order for the final level. Such a simple game but so much complexity. I loved it.spel.PNG
This is a really cool concept and I can see where you were going with this! Here's some constructive feedback:
- I think you need to ease the player a bit in with the gameplay, because it is very overwhelming at first.
To fix this you could for example, at first, only show the shrine card. Let the player see that their faith goes up when they press the pray button. Then once they have enough faith for a unit. Show that unit (like you do with upgrades). When they buy it show the unit go from the card into the battlefield. Then the player understands this creates a unit on the battlefield. After they've bought a couple units say that a wave of enemies is approaching. They watch them fight on the other screen. Then after a couple waves and the player has been introduced to upgrading and more units you could show a building card.
- I would also make a clearer visual language of who are the bad guys on the battlefield and who's one of your units, maybe a red outline or red health bar for enemies and green outline for your own guys. Cause its so fun to see them fight off enemies but its hard to distinguish which ones are your own.
- Also instead of showing all the attack and damage information and stuff all at once you could for example show it in a popup when hovering over the unit. Since I don't need to know that all the time, and it is quite a lot of information. Also icons instead of abbreviations would be great, like sword for attack, heart for health. But I understand you might not have had time for that. Also there are not clear icons for all the stuff you have.
- An icon for the currency would be great too, I saw C and assumed it was cost, but when I pressed it I wasn't sure what I was spending.
- Once I understood all the concepts the game was really fun! I think the only problem you have is how you communicate how the game works. You wrote the rules and a tutorial here in the post, and that definitely helped me. But most people will skip that.
I really liked your way of doing it with cards and how the game is split in two, I think its a super cool game, I really love this style of game and I hope you keep working on it! I think this has huge potential!!
unicorn.PNG
I did it!! This was fun, carefully moving my mouse through thin hallways is giving me flashbacks to the maze game... But here I got a beautiful unicorn instead. Fun simple but challenging little game!
I really like this idea and it was really fun to see what each spell does. The art is super nice and the first enemies reminded me of a Swedish childrens book/movie called "Ronja Rövardotter" where they had screaming crows and a really creepy nordic forest mythical vibe at times. (which I now realize is what you were going for after reading the description. Mission accomplished!)
If you want some constructive feedback: I had a hard time getting used to the mouse resetting when I drew spells and then go back to default attacking and aiming I felt like I had to either focus on spells or just the normal attack. So instead of having a default click attack I think it would be cool if I could click anywhere and the drawing board would be there and I could fill it in, and the default attack would be just not moving the mouse during the drawing phase or something. Cause the drawing was so cool I think it would've been great to combine that with the normal attack somehow.
Anyways really cool game, well done!
Very cool idea, original idea executed cleanly, thats what jams are all about! I'm really curious what you would add, if you had more time to make the game. So I'm gona follow you on itch and hopefully see an update after the jam!
Really cool game! I loved the way you introduced each new puzzle concept.
Really cool puzzle game, you did a great job explaining the basics of the game and then increasing the difficulty! Well done!
This is a really cool idea! I enjoyed the gameplay once I figured it out. I think some simple things could really improve how you communicate the game to the player like: - Add an outline to the current ability thats being used - When the player is using an ability give them a small tip like when you press walk you could show arrow keys / AD. And when you press shoot you can show a mouse and write like click, hold & aim - Make it clearer which abilities you can still use, so after the player has used an ability you can disable that ability by making the button a bit darker for example. - Show when its the players turn, you could do this by just having text like "Goblin 1 turn..." "Goblin 2 turn..." "Player turn!". Or you could do it by having a row of icons of the creatures and a white border for the creature whos turn it is right now.
I know you have a tutorial but most people skip will skip it or never click it, communication inside the gameplay goes a long way to get the player more into the game and faster. Anyways the game is still obviously playable and fun, really impressive for 48 hours! Well done!
Very cool game, the tutorial was very funny and I enjoyed smushing all the bugs!! Almost didn't survive the ending, also the graphics are awesome!
@blackcat508 true, during the jam I was thinking of ways to make it more challenging, and now in hindsight I realized I could've just had them keep walking and have the thoughtbubble pop up in the beginning, and you just have to give them the flower before they walk past. And then I just increase their spawnrate as the game goes on. It would've been an interesting dymanic between the amount of flowers and the amount of insects! Anyways hindsight 20/20
@stormburpee That's a great idea! At the very least I should've added some kind of sound as feedback.
@waterflow omg I wish I added that, like a school group picture in the end of everyone standing with their flowers, that would've been amazing! Great idea!
@bestjess you're right it does get pretty monotonous, I think I could've added some kind of mechanic towards the end where the bug says what they dont want, and then you'd have to think about it in another way while playing.
Thanks for playing my game and thanks for the valuable feedback everyone!
@illia-kryvolapov That's so fun to hear! I sent your comment to the people I made Beelivery with, and they loved to see it as well haha
I tried this yesterday while the server was online. I love that you made a literal working chat room for this jam. Multiplayer is no easy task so I applaud you for making this in such a short timespan! I think some small minigame for everyone to participate in would be fun, like a word on the wall that gets slowly revealed like "b**d" and people could guess it like "BIRD" and then it would just show "Jejkobb guessed the word first!". Anyways just a potential idea if you decide to keep working on it a bit. Great job!
I love the art, its hard to get such a fluid feeling with pixel art and you did it amazingly well. Feels like perfectly complex game for a game jam, easy to get into, hard to master. Well done!
This is probably my favorite game I've played so far. WHAT A WORLD you've created!!! I love every single creature in this, feels like everything has so much character, and it feels so unique!! I absolutely love this and it gets a 5/5 from me.
Amazing game, feels like everything has been paid attention to, the music the graphics the gameplay. It all feels super solid. And the game is fun too! Well done!
This is one of the coolest looking games I've seen in a long time. How did you manage to make it so hyperrealistic but also stylized!? Very cool game, I think this has a good chance of getting #1 on graphics!
Love the graphics! You say the game is simple, but simple is good when it comes to jams! Good job on making a game!
I love incremental games and I've made a few myself. I love that we can see the bees working, feels very satisfying! Great job!
I love this, reminds me of sushi cat. I got to wave 26!
This game was very... interesting. I found the main character was very relatable. I love how smooth the platforming was. I did find it a bit tedious to have to refresh the game when I realized I had missed some horseshoes at the top, and then realizing there's more horseshoes even higher haha. But it was very fun to try and find all of them, and the ending was pretty fun as well. The peni- I mean graphics were great and the music was as well. Great job!
Loved this game!! I had a fun time. After a couple tries I ended up winning, but for some reason my score said 00000, earlier I was able to upload a highscore of 3000 something though. Either way really fun! (Maybe you remember me I used your leaderboard service before) [rubberRoom.PNG](///raw/759/a/z/66216.png)
I love a good bullet-hell game and this was no exception. Cool music and artstyle as well! Also impressive that you had time to add a leaderboard!
Really cool concept, its quite a lot of information to understand in the beginning, but once you get used to it its really fun. Well done!
It was really fun, I really liked it! But it didn't really have much to do with the theme though, at least not notisable. But the music and everything went pretty well together so I liked it :)
That's actually really fun, I played better as the game got harder and it was perfect. Good job man, next time you could make better graphics and cool sprites, since this is pretty bland.
Simple and fun, I like it!
