Damn this game was fun and that music like holy crap was the music good the gameplay could have been awful and i would have continued playing only cause of the music but the gameplay is actually good so yeah. Amazing game
The graphics sound and music are beautiful the gameplay is interesting and engaging although i found drawing a bit tiring after a while but thats just cause i have the attention span of a gold fish. Overall i say this is one of the best games during this Ludum Dare for its presentation alone.
the gameplay was simple but engaging, the sound design was just amazing, the music was atmospheric and enthralling, and the story was very interesting. In short the game is great! But the basketball can't bounce so 0/10 terrible game.
yeah i would like too apologize too everyone for confusing you all with the controls i wasnt paying attention when i wrote the tutorial part of the main menu so i automatically wrote WASD instead of arrow keys
@jakobthequizguy Thanks for your feedback~ i'm glad you enjoyed my game. Yeah i can see how some of the spike traps would be unfair i think i fell into the game design pitfall there of simply knowing where everything is so i forgot too test of the spike placement was fair (unless you mean the spike traps around the green orb because those were meant too be incredibly unfair). As for falling through the map i just tested it and it seems that the collision on the edges of the orb don't work but it should work if you hit the center of the orb(although spoiler alert the ending is super anticlimatic).
@piratehearts i'm glad you enjoyed my game. Yeah the lack of checkpoints was intentional since the level is kind of short so i decided too use the old school game philosophy of stretching out a short game by making it stupidly difficult.
@bytinggames thanks for your feedback i really appreciate it. Yeah some of the spike traps weren't fairly placed(unless you meant the spikes in the green orb room cause those were meant to be unfair) this is mostly because i didn't let anyone else playtest it but hey that's something i can improve on next time (: btw thanks for the grammar advice, english isn't my native language and i have always sucked at language classes so i will try too improve upon the dialogue in the future.
@kuro thank you sooo much for your advice and criticism i can really gain a lot from this. I'm currently working on an expanded version of the game since i couldn't include everything i wanted into the Ludum Dare version so this will all help a ton!. I will definitely improve upon the areas you mentioned that had too much redundancy. the defense+ powerup reduces all damage received from enemies by 10(although i think the worm enemy still does the same) its definitely difficult too notice since it appears so late in the game and the red wasps do ridiculous damage in the first place. The avoid+ buff is weird what its supposed too do is prevent the red wasps from chasing you but its kind of buggy since it was the last and most complex of the buffs implemented. So yeah i just want too say thank you again and i will try too improve upon everything you mentioned in my future games and in the expanded edition of this game.
for the people who werent able too get the ending because of the collision bug at the end of the level. Here is the ending in all its glory ending.JPG
@LTorresTailfer i'm glad that you enjoyed the game and i will definetly tell bink that (:
I have too say for only 8 hours of work this is great and i personally would love too see it expanded upon and becoming a full fledged game. My only complaints are just like the other commenter mentioned which is that the attack range is very small and i think some form of sound or music would really add too the game but i understand that making SFX can be tedious and you had a lot less time then the rest of us so yeah. 4/5 would love if it was expanded upon in the future and made into a full fledged short game.
the gameplay was fun and engaging and the graphics were pleasant too look at and the music was relaxing to listen too. My only main complaint is that the controls werent made clear on startup but overall a very solid game.
A very comedic game i liked the unique combat mechanic but felt the game lacked alot in the sound department and while i enjoyed the character models the environment felt very lackluster. The writing was great tough, overal i had a good time
Simple, fun, interesting take on combat and ai. Not much too say tbh its an overal solid game
I loved the game although i wish there were a few more sfx but overal its a lovely game
Very fun if you would decide to expand upon this and make it a full game i would definetly play it!
Very nicely styled game. I was a bit confused in the beginning but ended up having alot of fun. I wish there was a bit more feedback when you kill an enemy though but thats just a small nitpick of mine
I enjoyed my time with the game and loved the black and white artstyle altough i wish there were some more sounds or effects to make the whole experience(mainly the minigames) more engaging.
Overall i really like the idea of being stuck in a timeloop but i felt it could have been executed better mainly with how the coffee was implemented i feel the experience would have been better if instead of using the coffee instantly upon interaction that you instead store it and can use it with a key press whenever you want i think that if that was done instead that it would give the player some more leeway and also add a simple layer of resource managment to it. But overal i still enjoyed my time with this game and i cant wait to see what your team will create next jam ^_^
Loved the graphics
Really enjoyed the game the puzzle was simple but satisfying and the visual and audio of the game was just phenomenal it kinda reminded me of little miss fortune and dont starve. My only nitpick is i really didnt understand the ending like who is this random lady? And is the game supossed to just remain on these 3 pictures of the boy escaping? Or did my version bug out? But overal it was very enjoyable
While the gameplay has something to be desired the atmosphere more then makes up for it i just wish there was more to do or a better representation of how much time you have left until the storm arrives i think the audio gets louder with the storm arriving? But idk
This was an incredibly fun game while it lacked background music it did have some great sound effects and the weapons felt very fun too use
An awesome game the music was great(although kinda repetetive) the kinda nes like artstyle was fun too look at, the levels were engaging the sfx was simple but good. Overall this has the potential to be a full game in my opinion if you added a few more mechanics on its and more levels and then put it on steam and slapped a 5-10 dollar price tag on it i would propably buy it
Such a lovely aesthetic and everything has such a satisfying feel. The movement felt a bit jittery(although i assume that was part of the aesthetic) and the jumping with a lack of air control was actually kind of refreshing compared to all the more samey feeling classic movement feels(yknow where it feels almost exactly like mario) sadly here is also my main criticism and thats that the level design felt like it didnt support the movement with alot of precision aerial movement required now i still beat all the levels ofcourse mainly because everything else felt so satisfying(that and i normally only play horror and roguelikes so you already know im a a masochist) but i feel that the game could have benefited more from levels designed for ascending vertically(like jump king kinda) rather then tight turns and narrow drops which felt very super meat boy inspired. But ultimately the game is still very enjoyable to play to an extent that if there were double the amount of levels which were even more difficult i would likely still play through it. Last thing i would like to mention is that when i beat the game after the(and spoilers here for anyone reading my review) nuke went off everything just went white and never left the white even after the sounds stopped was this intentional or did my version bug out? Now for my final score i would give this game a 0/5 because there is an amongus was in the games background... (on a more serious note actual rating would be a 4/5)
I really enjoyed playing Lark the graphics were decent and the level design was fun. I do wish there was some background music tough and the jumping noise was a bit too loud for my taste but for a first ludum dare game its very good(it was certainly better then my first LD game xD)
Very spooky game which was alot of fun too play. I dont really have much critique it was simply a solid experience
Very fun and unique game. My only nitpick is that i wish you could hold E too swing instead of repeatedly pressing it
I loved the aesthetics of this game it kinda felt retro but also not? idk how too describe it. The gameplay was simple but decent altough i feel the gameplay would really benefit from the abillity too lean with Q and E like in many other stealth games
Excellent game. It was very cool early on altough i felt the game became way too easy in the late game so, something too up the difficulty later on would be nice. I also encountered what i assume is a glitch where after a while my newly built delivery lads wouldnt get out of the tower anymore. Still i had a great time and i wish this was a full game
Words cant explain how impressed i am by this game it felt more like i was playing a fully made release instead of a game jam game. The gameplay was fresh interesting, challenging but fair. The story was great and the audio and graphics where incredibly immersive. I love this, through and through
Very cute game, reminds me of something i would play as a flash game when i was young. i would love too see an expanded version of this
i wish my brain was big enough too understand puzzle games xD. But i still had a great time, you did a great job
This game is too stressfull for my poor heart. Still i had a great time and i will propably play more of the game later
great game. I wonder if it would be possible too do a sub 1 minute speedrun for it
there was a weird glitch on the second day on my first playthrough where no new orders would appear. Besides that though this was a very fun game i especially liked the dialogue.
very fun game. Reminded me of something i would play on armourgames in ye olden days
Big fan of the gameboy aesthics and i like the level design.
solid gameplay, the movement felt a little floaty at first but i got used too it. I liked that the game encouraged learning the street names something not every similair delivery game does. I do wish there was some music though
@jdah thank you for your comment ^_^. The accompanying exe file on the itch page now has an updated version now which fixes the bugs on level 2 and 4 (it was because of some collision stuff). the html version still has the bugs but will be updated after the entire jam is complete
@takhomasac @salvation @khaokg thanks for your comments, im glad you had a good time ^_^
@johjoh the game over screen when you win is something i kinda let slide through development because i thought it was funny but ill propably make a patch later that fixes it.
@borderdestroyer my original intent for the ending was too have a long cutscene, similair too the opening cutscene. What i wanted the cutscene too be about i never got far into thinking about but i will likely end up including it in the full post-jam version.
Btw for anyone interested i will be spending the week after Ludum Dare 53 has ended too make a + version of the game which will include all the content i was unable to add too the final build, so if anyone thinks this game is good enough for a new playthrough in the future then you should stay tuned.
@wouter52 thanks for your kind words and im glad you had a good time. And thanks again for noticing that all the packages and customers are different its a detail which i found super important.
@aivaxela @eric-currier @resacagames thanks for playing and sorry about the bug in the html version
@ron88 thanks ^_^
@fis there actually is an exit button in the escape menu, it gets covered by the game over screen but should be selectable even while covered.
@glove i'm glad you enjoyed the graphics, i personally felt i could have made more if i focused more (there was originally a swamp level planned where slenderman appears(who now appears in level 10) but sadly didnt make it in(but it will appear in the post jam + version)) i find it interesting that you like the time mechanic in level 6 since that was a last minute decision since my original plan too have an ice wraith chase the player through the snow levels didnt make it in. But if you had a good time because of it then that makes me glad that i made the decision ^_^
@n0va @shane-gadsby thank you for the compliments ^_^
@petronus it theoretically should be playable on mobile because clickteam considers screen tapping and mouseclicking too be the same thing. I might try and make a dedicated mobile version in the future
great graphics and audio. Gameplay was fun but the hitboxes and movement could use some work, idk how too describe it exactly but it often felt like i wasnt quite in control of my mistakes. But its still a very fun entry
This game is very challenging, i'll comeback later too it too see if i can beat it. But besides that i really enjoyed my time with it, the gameplay is very engaging and i constantly felt on edge which i love, the graphics where good and the music did its job well. I also think the death scream is really funny
definetly one of if not the! Most unique game in the entire jam. The game was challenging but didnt feel unfair. My only critique is that i wish there was some more feedback when you got hit but besides that an excellent game! I can only imagine what kind of a masterpiece it could develop into if you developed it further
I'm not really that good at giving feedback but i just want too say how much i love the art direction!
I had a good time playing the game. A lot of the criticisms have already been said so i will keep it too the one i have that seems too not have been mentioned yet(unless i somehow missed that comment). I personally wish there was a build-up too the horror, now i understand the reason why there isnt one the time constraints are brutal afteral, my semi-horror game in a previous jam actually had the same problem because of it but i still feel it warrants mentioning, a horror games build-up is equally as important as the horror itself(the horror itself is great btw the sound design, graphics, lighting, its top notch)
@rcxa hi, and thank you for playing my game ^_^ yes the UI not dissapearing appears too be a bug, strangely enough the fade out seems too work just fine in the exe version of the game, i guess its just clickteam being weird. I made a small patch that should have fixed the issue.
@xinux thats such a sweet thing too say, i love old flash games so i am glad my games graphics gave you that vibe.
@powerofsin thank you for taking the time too play my game. Yes the big shot is quite underpowered at the moment, its main gimmick is that the damage scales with the speed of the ship allowing it too do 100 damage too the boss which is the same as the mines, but since the map is so small and the mines doing the same damage for less risk the end result is that it is severely underpowered. If i ever make a post- jam version ill be sure too buff the big shot significantly
@cataclysmicknight Thanks for the kind words ^_^. Yes the death lock is a major bug in the game currently, the boss is supossed too stop moving when the player is killed but it only works for the first phase, i'll be sure too fix it for the post-jam version.
@binroot thank you for playing my game! I will be sure too make a better pop-up for the post-jam version.
@the-xj-project Thank you for the feedback. Ill try and find a way too make the coins better.
@bluedandelion Thanks for the compliments. The controls are quite hard indeed, i will try and make a better control scheme for the post-jam version
@soul-grinder thank you ^_^
@rusya-ink thank you for the feedback! I will be sure too make the areas more interesting for the post-jam version, and this version will have actual dlc 😉
@freeworld The cat doodle was pretty great indeed
@lachlan-james Thank you for playing my game. While the Pop-up where intentionally annoying they where more annoying too intended, the pop-ups are supposed too fade out very quickly once they appear however this function only seems too work for the exe version and doesnt work at all for html version. I will see if i can find a solution for the post-jam version
@defrag thank you for the feedback. I'll be sure too make the paywalls more readable in the post-jam versions. Also pro tip, you can actually shoot the projectiles as well😉 altough that isnt explained in the tutorial so thats another mistake on my part.
@mcbombadev thanks for the kind words ^_^
I wasn't that engaged by the gameplay, could be a design issue but it could also be that this simply wasnt my cup of tea, i havent played too many point and click games in my time after all. The graphics, music, sound and writing are all exceptionally well done though! Those alone made me continue playing for a bit
Damn this was a very complete experience, propably one of the best games i have played this jam
Amazing game! Felt like something i would play as a flash game or maybe a 3ds game, it really felt like a complete game. I did struggle with maintaining oversight later in the game though but thats a small nitpick
Really cool game! the one button gimmick is incredibly well excecuted and satisfying and the 1-bit artstyle makes everything really clear and provides a nice visual flair. Incredibly well done!
The atmosphere was fantastically done and i loved exploring the map
Fun little game, wish it had audio
Really interesting game, very well polished and fun
Very polished game felt like something i would play as a flash game in my youth. Well done
awesome game
Holy quality! One of the most polished games i have played this Jam, not much i can say really its just great! I do have a bit of slowdown and that is that i experienced a little bit of slowdown on occasion while playing it but it didnt distract much from the fun i was having
fun game
@tasakasama @reaktori @antagonistbob @coatline @salty-grndpa @bridgeonastick @gbegreg @thomas-bringer @dhim @whateverdat @swordguy47 @captandrey @cataclysmicknight @p-r @kristinamay @jonathan-vogt @sinclairstrange @koalabear @hitchh1k3r The jam is ending soon so i just wanted to take the time to thank each and every one of your for taking the time to play my game and give valuable feedback it really means the world too me! i made sure to play each and every one of your entries as well. It has been an honor participating in this jam with you all and i am looking forward to encountering y'all again next jam ^_^
Didnt expect to see a point and click adventure game this jame, this was a lot of fun!
The gameplay is very unique
The game was fun and i loved the atmosphere. I do have two nitpicks though, first is that i wish there was a clearer indicator to indicate jump strength, there where animations that kinda indicate this but with the precision required in some of the jumps having a charging bar or something would have been appreciated. Lastly the light effect whenever you land is really interesting and added some nice impact to the landing, i feel like it has a lot of potential but felt like it wasnt utilized to the best of its ability and ended up feeling kinda tedious to use in the darker parts of the map
I don't have any friends so i had to play it with two hands on the keyboard ;-; Still a really cute game gave me a good startle a few times, i would love to see it expanded upon someday ^_^
Awesome game
Very interesting movement mechanics
This might be my favorite game of this Jam, i love how the movement feels the way i was constantly making micro adjustments to my movement as i was avoiding terrain and fish was wonderful and the upgrade system was nicely done, every upgrade felt like it had a use and gave a notable sense of improvement everytime i upgraded it. The graphics and ambience where also well done i liked the atmosphere that was created once i got to the really dark parts of the level.
The vibes are immaculate
A tier game for the name alone but it became S tier when i encountered Gizmo the shopkeep
Very charming game but the camera can be a little buggy
Very fun, graphics are a little lackluster but the gameplay is great, i would love to see this be turned into a full game in the future with more upgrades, enemies and terrain
Really cool idea for a game but could use polish in a lot of areas, mostly the music looping properly and making moving your units feel good
Super satisfying game
super fun!
Very interesting game, I will be sure to play it again later to get a different ending
Incredibly interesting game I would love to see this expanded upon in a post-jam version
Very cozy game, I had a great time
Incredibly cute game, did feel really bizarre to hear my native language in a ludum dare game though haha, the voice acting did add a lot of charm that most other LD games lack and the graphics felt incredibly nostalgic.
Incredibly unique and well done game, the mechanics where easy to learn but difficult to get right I could see this making a very special full fledged arcade game. The losing sound was very loud however and hurt my ears ): but yeah great game 10/10
very relatable, I too often visit my local grocery stores to acquire foodstuffs!
Amazing game! Cant believe it was made in such a short timeframe
Cute game
Very cozy game, the UX was done fantastically but I will admit my monkey brain found the actual mechanics a bit hard too fully grasp, I mostly just ended up playing zen mode so I could just click wherever and make a big flower garden ^_^'
HiScore.PNG
Had a great time with this game I only intended to play it for a minute or three but I ended up spending a bit more time on it xD, the simple mechanics where used fantastically! The simple visual of your upgrades chaining behind you was already a fantastic way to add progression but then you added that your health getting reduced to zero instead destroys a remaining module and I thought that was such a cool idea! Excellent game one of the best made this jam
I was thinking I would just be spending a little bit of time on this, but then I kept playing, and kept playing, and playing, and before I knew it I had spend more time playing this game then any other game this Jam, major props to the devs
@anya-voinova Clickteam fusion 2.5, its the same engine that the fnaf and baba is you games where made in
certainly one of the more unique games this jam, I had a good time with it giving the enemies a reflect spell was a good idea as it prevented me from just spamming my highest damage attack like I do with most rpgs
Charming game, the music did cut off after a while which was a shame, I also really enjoyed the different upgrades
Felt like a classic flash game could totally see myself playing this in the computer lab at school, I had fun navigating the different levels and bumping my head against the cars
Had a fun time, it reminded me of papers please but like cozy. I didnt fully grasp how the rare stamp mechanic worked though, I reread the tutorial you get twice but I remained confused, Maybe some visual examples would help for people who are smooth-brained like me xD, but I still enjoyed my time with this game quite a lot
Very well made game, loved the environment UX and Sounds, this game has also forever ruined bees and love for me so basically I can never watch the Bee Movie again
very fun!
Incredibly fun game, reminded me of an old flash game I could definetly see young me play this on the school computer instead of following the class lmao.
Really cute game
The models and settings are a big highlight for me, I did have an issue however where I was constantly fighting with the camera as the game would often lag a bit while moving it and if I moved it a bit upwards or downwards it would shoot up or down. I dont know if this is an issue with my computer or if its a game issue, but besides that I had a good time
Very interesting game with a neat artstyle, The same music track constantly did get a bit annoying however, I did really enjoy the physics of the game
Incredibly cozy game!
This game is marbelous!
Incredibly cute game, the gameplay was very addicting
awesome!
Very interesting game, the artstyle, sounds and UI really carries it. The language selection was also pretty neat you dont often see Ludum Dare games with that option
Cute little game, the camera felt a little odd however it feels like it was a bit too much to the left
One of THE games of all time, had a great time playing it
pretty fun!
Very interesting game, it took me a while to get the hang of the unique turn order but once I did I felt really smart, incredibly well done
This game gets my Seal of approval
This game really makes you fee like a monkey
My wrist hurts lmao, enjoyable clicker game with cute graphics, I could see this being expanded on
Interesting little game, I liked the artstyle and writing
Great game! The UI was fantastic and the graphics where neat, gameplay was fun although the opening deck was so strong that I never really saw a point in switching cards
very cool
Very cozy game, I liked how it allowed me to live in a fantasy realm where I had enough disposable income to spend more then 20 bucks on card packs
fun game
This game is Balling!
Very cool!
Interesting mechanics
The environments where quite beautiful
Very cozy game! Had a good time with it
