It is a difficult game but I got very into it. The pixel art looks really polish. I found a bug, when you defeat the first boss it drops a red orb, if I kill it when its hanging from the top the orb spawn there and I can't reach it :(. Hope you keep improving it, Great Job.
Incredible how you guys made great looking 2D art in just days. Very impressive game. The only thing missing its music and sound effects, if it had those it would be an incredible game.
Sorry, couldn't play your game, it crashes the moment I open it up.
This game has opened my eyes to a whole new world! 11/10.
I beat it!. It was really short and that ending was unexpected but I was engaged the whole time. Nice work.
Really great mechanics and game art. This is easily one the best entries I have seen. Well done.
Very relaxing game. The way the UI its presented looks very clean and net. I didn't like the controls but I still managed to play. Nice Game.
Had to do 3 tries before getting the hang of it. Very nice idea. I found that level to be really hard, maybe I need more practice XD. Overall nice game, hope you implement more levels into it.
It has a very good look and feel. I was not able to shot down any of the cannons but it was still fun XD.
This is better that my first game XD. I think you should add some sounds, consider checking out the Unity Store it has a lot of great sound effects for free.
Its uncomfortable to play it when the mouse its not locked. Regardless I tried to keep playing and did the riddle of 4 legs morning, 2 legs noon, 3 legs evening, after that the game resets and shows the big chunck of text at the beginning. Did I do something wrong?.
At least try to fix the locked cursor problem so it could be easily played.
The game art looks neat. Sorry to hear about your troubles but atleast you post something playable and good looking. Better luck next time.
The box art looks great, but I can't play. Can you fix the link?
Incredible game, the puzzles are extremelly polished and well done, its amazing that you could do this in 48 hours great job!
The voice acting got me, so funny :). I found a bug where if you press 2 arrow key at the same time you can't press a letter key.
Great game and the mechanics + story was well excuted, good job. Found it hard at first but after seeing I was being revived every time the difficulty didn't matter.
Nice entry, I would like to suggest adding more enemies and ways to deal with them, right now you can't go certain ways if you find an enemy, but still this was made in 48h its understandable, and its playable so congratulations!
Nice little game, it was hard to aim at enemies and press the correct keys, lowering the difficulty might help a bit
Wow thank you guys :), I thought the mechanics were not that simple so I tried to add a tutorial with a story to make it more appealing. Looks like it worked!
Great puzzle game, I love the graphics!
The atmosphere is very well executed, nice bgm and lighting.
Nice and cute little clicker game.
Nice graphics and the mechanics are great, got a bit confused on how the movement works but everything else was great, congratulations!
I like the graphics, but I got stuck on a puzzle :/
I like it, the second boss is really hard. You guys should add camera shakes and please fix the colissions sometimes I thought I was safe from bullets but it seemed like it didn't collide with the wall
Graphics are great, you guys should spend a little more time tweaking the player animation.
The artstyle is very interesting and the battles are like old school FF but chaotic, nice entry.
Good work, some sound and visual clues when enemies dies and where enemies begin and its target could be useful. Also turrets sometimes shots and kills enemies before they are visible, maybe spawn them a little closer to the visible area.
It fits the theme nicely, I found the flying mechanic hard but I had fun with it
Fun game, to me the movements feels a bit off and its hard to maneuver. Maybe making the movement more predictable could help.
Simple yet engaging. The enemy shotting patterns seens to hard to avoid I think. Also the camera shake and particles effects adds a lot to the mood of the game.
Nice minimal game, I didn't not read the instructions on my first playthrought and realized I better read them, after that the game became fun :)
An interesting mechanic, I found it hard at first. The music/sounds and graphical effects gives a great mood, well done
It has a nice concept, I think its too hard at first (I died 5 times on the first level) but making it easier could make it more enjoyable. Overall nice game
Nice mechanic, simple and well put, good job. The barrils should have an indication if they are going to add energy or reduce it (not talking about the random ones), I figured out right away but thats something you could improve.
The graphics looks great but the mechanics were too hard for me, I didn't know were to put the elevator and the walkers you should drop some more hints on how to play it
The mood would be alot better with some background music/sound, but nice work with the lights.
Amazing entry, while designing my game I had something similar in mind but I could figure out a nice clean way of delivering a mechanic like this, great job!
This a great idea for a game, good job!. I would love to see a game with the driving controls like this in a city with a lot of ramps and stuns to do.
The idea is nice and simple. Didn't know what to do before I read the instructions, maybe you could add the tutorial controls on the game.
Super simple game idea, nice. I think the levels give to little time and the move/switch color animations should be faster but overall, good job.
Couldn't play because the antivirus, but looking at the screenshots I can say the art is pretty good.
The idea is great, but I can't play it... hopefully you do post a video of it to see how it plays out.
Nice game, died a lot at first, I think the enemies shouldn't be able to one shot you but thats just personal preference :)
Graphics wise its amazing. I think the controls are a little bit clunky but overall a great experience.
Nice entry, It needs more polish but is a great job for only 48h
The controls feels a bit non-intuitive so I couldn't figure out how to play it properly for a while. On the bright side music is great!
I love the graphics, physics feels a bit off but overall nice entry
The mechanics are delivered intuitively and the games is also well polished, great entry!. Feels like a proof of concept of a bigger indie game :)
Great puzzle game, I loved the voice acting, background music and the pixel graphic style, great submission! got me playing for a while
Great entry, the mechanic goes really well with the theme, well done. I think the 2nd level is bugged, the second switch doesn't do anything.
It was hard to understand what to do, I keep clicking everything that came, thought the cows were special :)
The mechanics are great, I like the small dash. A small suggestion, add counter of how many pink things you need to pick up before going into the goal.
It was short but great, I really liked it. The mechanics are well explained, good job!
The story was well done and music amazing, I think a little more polish on the lighting would do wonders. Overall great entry the mood was perfect.
The graphics are amazing!, the mechanics are simple but they deliver the story so overall great job.
Nice game. Overall it needs graphics to be polished and it could become a great game, it has potential.
Nice entry, it was hard but found it entertaining
Good one, the camera shake and sound effects makes it very engaging. I just found out in the comments that shotting reduces energy XD
Nice idea. I like the main character and its animations well done, with that said I found the light shadows too distracting, maybe try to keep the hand that holds the light in the same position.
Graphics are amazing, very well polished, I couldn't pass level 8 :(
Nice!, I think if you guys polish it, you could make a great game, this has potential.
Graphics are great, nice job. But are the controls working fine on windows? The movement felt snappy, hit one key and only moved once.
Nice game. I reached wave 5!, I found the movement a little bit hard but the attack mechanic is really good.
Nice entry, you should add some instructions to this, I didn't know that you need X amount of batteries to unlock the numbered blocks, but hey I figured it out!
Nice game, it felt too sudden when 4 dudes are shooting at you after clicking skip XD and what's up with the red eyes on the broken glass door?
It reminds me of Hotline Miami, I like the effects and the sounds/music are nice. Nice job
Voice controls!, nice
Nice game, I really liked the music. I think you should adjust the hold space key force, it feels weak.
Wow great game, I see potential in this. I like how you have to think and make each shot count, also nice music.
I love the mechanic of how in sync you have to be with the beat to hit the enemies, feels great and satisfiying. Excellent game.
Simple and nice mechanic, I like it. I think I found a when trying to find the 3rd part, when I tried to float on the 3rd purple zone sometimes I would be walking on top of it and couldn't jump.
Interesting history, overall nice entry
The theme goes really well with the mechanics, excellent job
It's tough! best score was in the 200, the illustrations are great. Are you sure the charging pads works? I did as you said in the hint but couldn't get it to work
Amazing graphics, great job. The physics are nice but I found a bug where if you jump to a wall and keep going to that side the player gets stuck, maybe reduce the friction to zero of the player physics material
Interesting idea, I like brain puzzles like this :), I found a typo when the game ends it says "excape", I finished with 3min left! yay!
I can't play it, you need to put the Data folder on the .zip for windows
Very hard but enjoyable, overall nice entry
A very chaotic game, got me playing for a while (reached wave 6 :)). I feel like the game is very well balanced, so nice job!
Reminds me of old megaman games, nice job!
The mechanics and design plays great but the camera is hard to control, the deceleration makes it harder to figure out where are you going to end up looking, everything else was good, nice job!
The style and the mechanics are nice, adding some upgrades and offline play in the future would be nice.
Great entry overall, I didn't know how to get contracts at first so I was just wandering around drinking coffee. When I figured it out the game became fun and enjoyable.
The game is very well polished, nice job!. The camera view works amazing.
Nice concept, a little hard to understand at first (did not read the instructions :P) but overall a like the mechanic, in the future you should consider adding a multiplayer mode, managing who's going to shot and defend could be really enjoyable.
Great game!, got streesed and fired because too much work :) I wish you could see a better description on how much stress and chores you have
Nice and simple game, I would have liked if you could jump with arrow up, got confused a lot of times by it :)
Addictive and simple, nice entry. My only critic would be there's too much text for the tutorial (I saw a lot of text, closed it, and keep playing)
Nice entry, congratulations!. It was kinda hard for me but it was an enjoyable experience
Nice entry, if you guys could improve the combat and movement controls could be really good, I think the sword should do an arc like Link from Zelda's games (maybe there's a better way, just my opinion)
Don't know why but pressing space to hit the bell was fun on its own. Nice job
Very clever way of using the theme, nice entry
Incredible congratulations!. Looking at the screens shot thought it was going to be a Doom clone but the mechanics are different and engaging, nicely done.
Nice little cute game, great entry
Most creative entry I've seen so far, love this kind of puzzles. The only nitpick I have is to include an arrow than indicates where are you gonna type next, regardless 5/5 Overall.
Great entry! I love the story you managed to make. It looks great as it is, also the sound effects are really good.
Nice prototype, wish the camera was a little higher, sound effects are neat
Controls are a bit funky, walking speed seens too slow, but the general experience is great, the story and the setting reminded me of Half Life.
@pennycook besides slow movement speed, when moving into a wall it does a weird shake I think thats because the movement collision is calculated before the wall shrinks, maybe that can be solved using FixedUpdate() instead of Update() (I don't know the actual code, I had the same situation on past games I've made), also something I forgot to tell earlier when pressing esc to release the mouse you can't lock the mouse again because of that you can't rotate complety, but thats just a bug/feature of Unity WebGL when you play on window size.
Voice acting is great!, I wish the default weapon was any of the power ups, using the lazer and the shotgun was when I felt the most engaged. Also I think that can contribe to the crazy theme you guys have going on. Overall great game.
@chocolat-endive I like that idea, I'll take it! thank you.
@gilgusmaximus I should implement a short invulnerabily after respawning.
@dylan-shumway, @magmafortress, @pennycook, @edj99, @antti-haavikko I hear you guys, I thought it would be enough by putting spikes on the sides but I'll add/modify something to make "hug the wall" strategy less appealing, thank for finding the exploit :)
@brandon-js-lea I needed this thank you so much, yes I want the gameplay to be energetic but as right know if you shot just enough bullets to kill an enemy or avoid a spike it becomes too tactical and less frenzy which is the best strategy (I've been playing Medieval 2 again maybe I did it subconsciously thinking slow, tactical play would be the best design). I want a crazier experience, so again thank you for pointing that out I'll rethink the current state of the design and see what I can do.
Thank you all for playing your feedback means the world to me, if I had not rated/comment your game yet, don't worry I will :)
I don't have a controller so it was hard to even select a car to drive, controls on the itch.io page are wrong left mouse click is accelerate, also the cursor to select cars can go offscreen and is really sensitive.
Concept is nice, wish I had a controller to play comfortably.
Controls are really hard, I always end up losing because I fell.
Nice job!, I kinda had a hard time when the enemies spawned too close I couldn't react as fast to dodge them, maybe is just me :), Also you should a shadow to the enemies, player and coins, that's to help the player get a better sense of depth.
Nice game, it could work really well on mobile. I like the fact that you can go faster on clicking when the ball reaches its lowest point on the web thingy, nice touch.
Nice entry, simple and enjoyable. I like the general concept but have you considered making it turn based? Its quite frustating being block by a cat, I think in a turn based setting you could move every cat in their turn and when the player moves you just has to avoid the cats (or lose a turn to pet them), I'm just throwing an idea out there, I might be wrong :)
That big red asteroid killed me :( we need health packs and shields!
It looks like a good prototype, keep working on it!. I was lost at first but after a short while I got the hang of it, sadly I can't kil the red douche that keeps taking my trees :(
How did you guys made the intro? it looks neat. The first bit its a nice tutorial but you should show what button to press (not everyone reads the description). Also I got a bit lost with the camera rotation after teleporting, its still a nice effect if I may suggest a compass arrow that indicates where to go forward.
Too many enemies spawning!!!, overall nice concept, the levels layout seens a bit repetitive also when jumping you can get stuck on the side of a platform, changing the physics material settings to zero friction in Unity should solve that problem.
Simple and interesting, you should expand on it and add more levels and mechanics, also some sound effect would greatly improve the game experience.
Good prototype, with more polish it could be a perfect small game for sites like armor games and kongregate. Also I got an error when trying to go up with the barrel.
''' Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '4' of undefined at GetTile ((index):291) at PlayView.Update (view.js:373) at Game_Update ((index):305) at Game_Loop ((index):330) '''
Great entry, I would love to see a more polished version. Also I didn't read the tutorial at first so I was trying to drag and drop items with the mouse, after re-reading it I figured it out but I think for a game like this it should allow drag and drop controls.
There's a lot of this game that the screenshots don't tell you, I thought it was going to be boring but it has many details that make the experience enjoyable, nice entry, I really like the fact that the music gets faster the longer you play it, makes you feel more inmersed.
With more polish it could be great game for mobile
Interesting concept, if I may add a couple of suggestions:
- Box spawn seens too random, the second time I did level 1 (I lost the first time) got the first blue box around 10s left. - Shadows should be front top to bottom, when the box drops on the ground its hard to judge where is going to land when you look at its shadow.
Graphics and music works amazingly together!. The blue mascot following the cursor is a nice touch. To me this doesn't fit the theme but still is a really good entry. If I may suggest to add a option to increase the font size, I played in a low res (800x600) and everything was readable but too small.
Nice concept, I would like to suggest to change the key for moving the text to spacebar, just because is more convenient, also have you considered spawning enemies from all sides? if you make a bigger play area I think it could work.
I like the design, especially how enemies run away and don't shoot when you near them. If I may suggest one thing would be to put the health and eating progress separated or make the projectiles deal more damage to you.
Music + art work really nice, great job.
Nice entry, I found the controls to be a little hard to get around with but regardless is a well made entry and the graphics are really good!
The difficulty curve is well balanced, good job!, I had a hard time with the controls, it seens like moving and shooting an automatic gun weirds out the movement, but overall nice entry.
It was hard dealing with the cats... just like real life :)
Nice entry, you should add an in game tutorial (read the description after staring to a cat for a minute)
Craziest theme I've seen so far. If I would suggest something would be to make the player move to the right automatically, there's no other drawback/benefit for not holding the key down, great voice acting btw.
Overall gameplay is nice, I think bullets should destroy each other when they collide, shooting is enjoyable I wish I could not worry about getting killed by my own bullet.
Love the graphics and music, nice entry! I think you guys should make the traffic light counter more noticeable, I was losing at the beggining without knowing why.
Graphics are amazingly good, its a simple idea well executed. I found the controls to not be as responsive as I wanted to, I think the physics was the thing that made the controls feel weird but that might be just me
Too short!, sound effects are great. There's not much that needs improvement besides graphics, nice job
Reminds me of Master of Orion. You should add a tutorial I was lost for quite a while.
Nice entry, I don't know if its only me but when I launched a satelite its says you get 20btc/sec, after launching I didn't get any btc per sec. You guys have a nice concept polishing it and posting on Kongregate/Newgrounds would be a good place for a game like this
Strong and clear message, feedback about whats gonna happen after/while sliding would be nice. Also I would like to throw some ideas that might be interesting:
- Make events, where the player has to use money to prepare it but it has the chance of giving you more money and maybe a bonus on people adopting pets. - Upgrade cage count, veterinarian effectiness, voluntier recruitment rate. - Add cats!
There's potential here, first: Using the saw makes no difference, you can push enemies aside quite easily, second: When you jump while touching an enemy the character does a really high jump, physics should be polished, third: Using the high jump is possible to make a button dissapear and thus making it impossible to continue.
I would love to see an improved version :)
Simple and enjoyable, definitely with more polish without changing the design would make for a nice mobile game.
I like this a lot, is simple and has a nice complexity curve. You should keep working on this great job!
Nice game, I would love to see it with a better art and a better progression, like with power ups and random events. Don't get discoraged if people recognize where you got the inspiration for it, most gamers don't make games, let alone make a game in 3 days :)
Got level 6 with 19517 score. Really fast paced game, you should put a little animation before a tile is removed.
A puzzle for programmers, more of this please. My only complain is that this might not feel intuitive to people that don't know circuit logic, I think having an easier begining and a tutorial with sample images would be better in the long run so crazy complex levels won't frustate people as much :)
I thought I was getting damaged by because of the sound effect XD, background music is great. The controls didn't feel nice to me. The design + theme works good.
Too many aliens!, there's a point where I forgot about everything and just keep shipping 10 towels and hiring security. The asteroid crashing caught me offguard, nice touch.
Simple and nice, I had a hard time playing because of frames dropping when rotating, maybe the rotation code is slowing down the game?. Fixing that will greatly improve the game.
A rage game!, the animations are really neat. Also love the camera work + commentary at the beginning, more of that please.
Cool entry, after a while it gets repetitive maybe adding new mechanics like a crazy time where you spawn a word to get a better score or changing the office art overtime I think would make the experience more fun.
Damm cops they always get me. I think the zombies hitrate is too fast.
Nice entry, its a simple idea that can work really well as a mobile game. If I may suggest, I think addding something that the player picks to justify why its moving would make it more enjoyable overall.
Great concept, would be great if there's a way of knowing the form of the next piece of news/ad, also adding events each day to make the player prioritize money, fans or having a piece that must go on today's paper would be nice to make it less repetitive (I'm just throwing random ideas, they might not work)
Nice concept, wish I could select with disaster/monster to summon and how many people remains in each area, I was just spawming stuff randomly, also why is central america inmune? When I clicked around Mexico, Panama and Colombia things spawned outside that area.
Nice game, I really like the idea. If I may add a few suggestions:
- Adding items automatically after moving on, it gets tedious when you do it manually - Taking less turns to prepare - Having blue weapons attack or add bonuses to the other stuff
Music and sounds are great, a little hard for me but quite enjoyable
Nice entry, the game was too difficult for me but it was a fun experience, well done.
The story was quite engaging nicely done.
Nice and fun little puzzle game, you have a nice premise here I think you should expand it futher :)
The mechanics are great, I wish the controls were a bit less clunky. A platform mixed with baseball looks like a great original idea to develop futher, great entry overall
The graphics are amazing, I wish there were more people to take their soul, it fell too short :(
At first I thought everyone else was a machine in chat, but oh man this has multiplayer! wow. Nice game overall, very original idea, we should have more ways of interacting with other player (like sabotaging, trading and such) but still it was quite fun to me, good job.
Short and sweet, nice game. I wish the robot would say *beep* more often (I got a chuckle out of that).
Fun game, I had some issues with the dash attack. I think a small shadow on the floating enemies could give a better clue of deep, I keep doing the dash attack without hitting anything
Mood is great, and the particles effects are really good. If I may suggest putting a visual clue when mining orbs (after re-reading the controls I figured out)
I think this can easily be the beggining of a new genre. Interactions are pretty limited but expanding it could be worth a lot (closest thing to this is twitch plays
I love the graphics, in the future try to make the spell/actions buttons more noticeable at first I didn't know were to click because the buttons blend with the background.
Controls are hard, and traps are difficult to evade. A lower difficulty curve would be nice.
Great entry overall, I think something that can be done to avoid "frankenstein" looking graphics is to use shader with a distict artstyle, like cellshaded, plain color, or something weird looking.
That heavy metal song XD
Graphics looks cute, controls are hard to grasp on (pressing left/right and going up/down confused me at first). Overall is a nice game, good job.
I like it, if I may suggest a mechanic where you spend your reward for upgrades would be nice.
I like it overall, but I feel like the camera is too close. Also I think player bullet should be quicker that the enemy bullets.
This game has potential, you should consider developing futher. Also if I may suggest I think the day and night should be time based instead of turn based, that would make the game more challenging.
Nice entry, everything is a little generic but you got a nice layout to work on something bigger and better :)
