I like the idea of playing around with percentages and investments but buying all the small properties and waiting for the larger percentages to pull in more cash with nobody able to stop you felt like too strong a move. Although, that's exactly what's happening in the real world so maybe the protest game just went over my head haha
I got great results with an autoclicker set to 100 miliseconds :D
my only complaint was not understanding what items did until after I bought them because sometimes Id replace an old weapon with a worse new one and die really quickly to the new larger hoard of enemies
Those guys do not get along! I thought the way you taught the player about pulling on tails was really cool
this was rad, the rushes are my favourite part, or making my cells huge. is there a way to reduce a cells size if it's too big to get through the gap? I had to wait for the green cells to rush because I fucked up
I feel like you could always tell if the quote was real or AI when it was sarcastic which is hilarious
Wicked idea, does the game scale to different monitors or do you get a larger game area?
I don't think I'll ever be so confident in playing the weirdest game in a jam again! the live action scenes are great
I got 21 then 25, the difficulty curve is great. Though, my version was missing the background too, not that that effected gameplay
Heads up :P On the second level, the skeleton that spawns just above and to the right of the milk float often jumps down to the milkman spawn. You can avoid him by running right at the very start though
@ratogodoy actually that crash occurs everytime the game finishes! but only in the web version, I think it's because something in the script that holds the score wants to access an object that's not in the scene now
I had to turn my mouse sensitivity way up to move the cursor, but I ended up having to bounce the projectiles to hit the bugs I couldn't aim at in time and that works pretty well.
now I want to go play dwarf fortress, this is a awesome, I had to run it on linux though
your art style is fantastic, I like the mini gnome
This is pretty funny, does it grow pretty close to real time?
This is the best game I've played of the jam so far!
hexagons are the bestagons, this is a clever twist on minesweeper. It would be nice to be able to mark tiles to easier count the ones that might be bad and figure which ones are safe.
controlls are exact enough that eventually I was playing a really patient fighting style and barely taking damage, But getting enough stone was really hard. I like the shop with the upgrades, it's a really cool way of packing something like a metroidvania into a small package since the player can't miss an upgrade accidently.
The colours picked for the viruses were really easy to spot, I feel like it notieceably made the game more comfertable to play, The game picks up really quickly at a certain point and I started targetting clusters of red and gree viruses as well as clicking messilly to thin out some of the blue ones!
Id have liked to see the crops stay on the table long enough to get them, 2 turns meant that it was usually easier to grab the new ones that spawned next to you instead of strategically creating paths to get the most in.
I got 38 after a few tries, I really wish there was a better way of picking the apples off the ground, a slightly scoopier robot bottom maybe, I had a lot of fun trying to use the ramp bottom with the robots body to push them to one side
maybe Im just bad at the game, but a little boost to jump height would've helped a lot! The art and sound on this game is fantastic, fuck celery
the other fruits should be more expensive, I was able to skip from apple to bananas and fully upgrade the trees very quickly. If you keep working on this, maybe you could add a prestige system where you can sell a set of 6 trees for a special currency that lets you upgrade to better fruits. The upgrade cost to benefit of each tree is fantastic and kept me hooked on playing till the end, it would work fantastic as a mobile game
@fluburbio That's a great idea for jams
It took me 230 days but I did it! The game started off quite slowly, but there's a great rythm at a certain point that carries through to the end.
This is rad, I could barely crack 2000 points but I enjoyed it, I was probably trying to hard to let the aliens form groups so I could take them out with a melon bomb. I really like that the game doesn't make you rush to pick crops by having aliens eat them or letting seeds despawn
The best part of this game comes after losing to war a few times but knowing enough to realise you better lose a couple familly members in winter if you want to pay rent. Maybe you could tug on heart strings a little tighter if you made the player name the familly at the start and pick who to send away. Dying because of a war a couple years in felt like a huge set back.
@spigs I'm really glad somebody found that, Mercury ends up being the closest planet to just about everyother planet on avergae, and that's based on real data which I thought was interesting! So I don't know that I can fix that without changing the orbits. I probably should've just made a universe up instead!
@lcstark thanks for pointing out the 404 error! I left the repo private.
