Solid game, can only play solo but great fun! Keyboard was fine for playing on, only I'd maybe think about switching the G and H keys for E and R, feels more intuitive for a WASD game. Other than that I wouldn't change a thing!
Nice work!
For such a simple game, I found myself playing this for quite some time. Just as you think you know whats going on, a new element is added and you find yourself thinking back through the previous levels as to what routes you need to go that you couldn't do previously. Reminded me of older-style games like Rick Dangerous which is a good thing!) and I was pleasantly surprised. With slightly better graphics this could be a full game that I would pay money for, keep it up! Well done, great entry :smiley:
I've been playing LD games for about 2 hours now an dI was chomping at the bit for a decent strategy game then along came this! I could quite happily sit and play only this for another 2 hours now, maybe more, it has everything a good strategy game needs for extensive replayability. It's randomized, but within controllable parameters, making each game a challenge even once you've got the underlying principles down. Really, can't describe how impressed I am you managed to code this in the time given, I cant imagine where I'd even begin. Really well done, a fantastic entry, thanks for making it! :smiley:
Cute and fun game, simple and rewarding. Played it a good few times so it has good replayability trying to beat your own score. Nice art style, only criticism would be the sugar goes down too quickly, would be nice to play for a bit longer! Good entry for a compo, well done! :smiley:
This game is spectacular, and I don't throw that word around easily. The art style is incredibly impressive for a game jam, but the concept is where this game is in a league of its own compared to the other games I've played. I've seen comments comparing this to the Witness etc, but with some continued development this game could be a genuinely successful stand alone solo title that ends up with other games being compared to it instead. Really impressive, well done on every single aspect on this; it's my top LD game so far by quite a bit.
Interesting idea, I get the impression you didn't get it finished which is a shame as with some more content this would have been really interesting. Cool art, and great effort now just keep adding to it, it definitely has potential! Well done :smiley:
Nice idea, I love a good turn-based resource management game and this is a great example! I would love to see it expanded on more, with more small-cost events at the beginning to keep things interesting but overall a great entry and I do hope you continue to work on it! Well done :smiley:
What a great little world! The intro text was a bit slow for me, but I think that might just be my connection I'm not really sure? Other than that the game was ace, Dad was proud! Would be really nice to see where this would end up if you had a lot longer, I feel a series of these puzzles would make for a really interesting game. Well done, I thoroughly enjoyed it
This is an absolute gem, I love RTS and this is a really fun example of one. The difficulty ramp is perfect (6:30 on my second try, convinced I can make it past the 10 minute mark with some strategic planning!) and the difference between the units/buildings is enough to make each resource spent count. Great game, really REALLY well done :smiley:
It is astonishing that you made a game with this much character given the timescale, it is beautiful visually, but also in it's theme, audio and delivery. Really impressive, and it hit the right level of creepy/weird to keep me captivated. I REALLY hope you continue to work on this post-jam as it has a huge amount of potential, and everyone who entered should check this out. 5/5 Really well done!! :smiley:
Great game! I'm trying to play a bunch of games over my lunchbreak but I'll definitely be returning to this when I get home to play it some more, the music is great, the concept is ace and I love any kind of construction game so I was always going to love this! Solid mechanics, well put together and a pleasure to play. really well done :smiley:
Would be ace to have some kind of zombie health bar or something, or feedback when you hit. Otherwise this was actually good fun! Well done :smiley:
Ha!! This is intense!!! Really great, think it could maybe start off a little easier but that's just me being rubbish and wanting to play more! Simple and fun, the controls are solid and the game is all round a pleasure to play, thanks! Well done :smiley:
Great game! Really nicely polished and the concept is simple but hilarious. Very satisfying to play, challenging but not in a frustrating way. Could happily play for a good while; overall a really strong entry, well done!
Really great game, nice concept and well put together. I would have liked to have the camera zoomed out just a little to give you better control over where you're stacking the later ones, and if it went on a bit longer it'd be great to try and squeeze loads and loads onto the planet, I felt like I was just starting a level then it was over? Guess that just means it's a great game and I just wanted to play more!! Really fun with nice clean graphics, great submission, well done :smiley:
Really nice, enjoyed the art style's simplicity, the 2D characters really fit in well, had a pleasant chuckle when I saw the reflection in the mirror! Would love to get prompts when looking at interactive objects, but otherwise a solid game! On lunch break so haven't got round to day 3 but I look forward to playing it when I get home! Well done!
What a fantastic game! Thoroughly enjoyed it, the tutorial was simple yet informative and a really nice addition given the timescale. The art style fits perfectly and the concept is brilliant, I was trying my hardest to defend all my population! All round a fantastic entry and a solid game, well done :smiley:
Nice little game, controls are a bit sticky when firing but otherwise simple and easy to pick up. Very retro style both in graphics and gameplay (which is a good thing!) however I have no idea how you complete it - how you reach that battery escaped me completely, but perhaps I'm just being stoopid. Well done, a solid effort :smiley:
This is fantastic, really nice and I could happily sit and play for hours. The animations are brilliant, the concept is great and the controls are fun and intuitive. That intro is just showing off!! How amazing was that!!? Brilliant little game, with a tonne of replay-ability and all round fantastic submission. Only thing I noticed was there was a bit of ground I kept getting stuck on and had to jump over it, but otherwise it's perfect. Well done :smiley:
This is an overall great little game, with fantastic physics which is always amazing to see! Really quite tricky, but with a few more powerups/weapons etc this would make an excellent game that I would happily play for quite a while. Graphics are simple yet fitting, and the whole thing was just a really fun experience. Well done :smiley:
This is such a great game!!! Seriously, 5/5 from me across the board, this was clever, difficult but not frustrating, and endlessly replayable. The graphic fit well, the controls are great and the overall take on the theme is incredibly inventive. Really, really well done this was incredibly entertaining :smiley:
This is a clever idea for a game, although I had to keep referring to you comment for what to do!! The music is a perfect fit, and at no point got annoying (I'm still humming it in fact!) and the game is really nice and relaxing to play, although it does seem really difficult and I had to keep restarting! If there was a 'restart' button that would help, and maybe starting with more honey so you can start making new bee straight away that would make things a little easier. All in, a really nice game, well done! :smiley:
This was good fun, nice game! The music is a little grating, but the gameplay itself is challenging and well put together, well done!
This is great once you get the hang of it!! Reminds me of the old roamer robots you used to have to program to move around the floor, but with added chopping so that's always a plus! Agree with previous comments that mouse input would make me play this more, but otherwise a nice unique game with a lot of potential! Well done, great game :smiley:
This looks great and has a lot of potential but I wasn't 100% sure on what I was doing or how to complete a level (Web version)? I like the concept though and the take on the theme is novel and inventive! Will play the post jam update and see what you have added as I think it could be a really entertaining and educational idea. Well done thanks for making it!
This is great!
This is great I just wish there was more!! Great concept and easy to pick up, glad I remembered to go back and rate it. Well done, great entry :smiley:
This is brilliant!! Like a black and white, futuristic Monkey Island! Really nice art style, well put together and the dialogue is clever and funny without being cheesy. Nice game, really well done :smiley:
This worked absolutely fine for me, great fun and nice and nostalgic. Still humming that tune! Well done, great entry :smiley:
Great game! As mentioned before it takes a while to figure out whats going on but once I did it was fun! It's hard enough on easy though, god knows how to beat it on hard! With a bit more information given to the player, this could be a really fun game, keep working on it! Well done great entry :smiley:
Really great game, the resources are tight enough that you will fail if you dont think carefully, but half the fun is figuring out what to do and how to do things differently each time to win. The ocean sounds are perfect, and the game is just overall an absolute peach! well done, really well made :smiley:
This is an absolute peach of a game, and a prime example of the best that gamejams can bring out in developers. It's funny, ridiculous, fun and well made, and each new minigame made me chuckle at how monotonous yet entertaining they were. (The eating minigame especially, that was fantastic). So many nice little touches (I bet everyone jumps at the office block to shatter the windows) that it all comes together perfectly. 5/5 well done :smiley:
Very funny, with a fantastic soundtrack and great cut-scenes! The gameplay has a great concept, although I have no idea when I'm in the line of sight which makes things a bit tricky, but got there in the end! Well done, really nice game :) Nice to see fellow Redditors doing something other than browsing Reddit too :P
Rated! Great game, such replayability!
Nice game! Hard, especially if you try and get anything on the big planet but overall a really fun and challenging experience. Simple art style, but that totally fits the game, and once you get the hang of the jumping/timing this was an overall good experience! Well done :smiley:
This is ace!! Challenging and fun, with a really nice style & sound to backup solid gameplay. Only played solo but could happily sit and play this for ages. Well done!
Nice game! I like the art style and the kinda creepiness of it all, took me a while to find satan but once I figured out what was going on I had fun running around and talking to all my fellow deceased! nice concept, well executed and overall a great submission. Had to fullscreen on WebGL though as it was cutting off the dialogue/dialogue options when talking to Satan, other than that it worked great! Well done :smiley:
Wow, so much content for a compo!! Amazing, I'm really impressed you managed to put something like this together; it's a really nice balance of trying to figure out what your doing at the same rate that the difficulty ramps up, and I found the whole thing quite relaxing! Some good onboarding would help to suss out how the combinations etc work, but if you decide to develop this further (and you definitely should) you're got a really strong footing here to go on. Well done, really very impressive indeed :smiley:
Great fun, really hard but once you get the hang of it it's kinda addictive. Well done, looks fantastic and nice use of the theme too! Multiplayer would be amazing on this!!
The game glitched on me a couple of times when collecting items (the UI didn't disappear?) but on reloading it worked fine and saved my location which was a nice surprise! A good effort well done :smiley:
The concept is absolutely brilliant, and with a few more options it could be a great game. At some point in every play through I seemed to wipe the population, never really got to see the benefit of getting higher tech & unity scores but I'm sure I'm just not noticing the changes they bring around. The art style is simple but very fitting, and all round I think it's a great entry! Well done!
This is great! I got a proper laugh at the rapid fire power-up, that is a serious escalation in ability! The sound is great, the gameplay simple but fun, and all very well put together. Well done! :smiley:
Hard to control, but once you get the hang of it quite a fun little game!
I got the first two puzzles (almost definitely by luck!) but the third one had me stumped. The mood in this game is insane, it reminds me of Myst or something equally disconcerting; 'why am I here and how do I get away' - butwithout any answers and the clues are maniacally cryptic. All in a thoroughly enjoyable game, oddly unsettling but in a really profound way. Great work, well done :smiley:
VEry absrtract, very very cool! I like everything about it, the scope, the size (literally), the story, the atmosphere - this is a very interesting and intelligent approach to the theme. Well done this is a fantastic concept!
Jumping is pretty tricky, but that doesn't sound like it's not already been covered so just gotta say it was absolutely perfect in it's sweet, cute, awesome bunniness... until I held the down arrow. Then it just got so, so much better. I swear it was a full 5 minutes before I did anything else. Brilliant game, absolutely hilarious and really well put together, really well done. :smiley:
I love these kinds of games and they are very hard to do right! This is all round a great effort and the ASCII style is absolutely amazing, I have no idea how you managed to get it looking like that in that amount of time! Well done, a solid entry :smiley:
This was great fun! Took a few tries until I got enough power ups to be able to give it a proper bash, but once I did it was brilliant! Sound and art are spot on, with really well put-together and all in all a really solid entry, well done! :smiley:
This is great, nice art style and cleverly made. The audio is superb and the whole thing just made me feel really happy to be playing! Well done, this is an insanely strong entry for a compo!! :smiley:
If this game had multiplayer/co-op I'd be all over this like a rash. Great concept, great fun and overall a really, really solid entry for a compo. I hope you continue to expand on this as it could be something really cool! Well done, like really, amazing job :smiley:
I had to come back and rate this, this is a very clever take on the theme! A lot of fun to play and gave me a good few laughs, happy to replay it over and over. Great game, well done :smiley:
This game is ridiculously fun for something so simple, great idea and very dry in its humour. Really well done this is brilliant!
Thanks everyone! @drazil100 was great getting to watch you play earlier, thank you so much for doing that. I'm going to tweak level 5 to make it a bit easier and add it as a post-jam build and fix the resolution on load, but I'm just happy people enjoyed any part of it; it's my first ever games jam and it's such a weird (but great!) feeling to hear people enjoy playing my game!
Thanks everyone!
@Samurai-spark It takes a bit more getting used to than I first anticipated! Thanks, the controls were a big part of the development; they had to be intuitive enough otherwise the whole thing would be literally impossible! Thanks for noticing and thanks a million for playing :) Daily Routine looks amazing btw, it's getting played tonight too :)
What a fun game! Really nice idea, nicely polished too for only 48 hours! Took me ages to figure out how to hit even remotely accurately, but once I got it I could swing for days! Intergalactic baseball, what's not to love?
This is hilariously entertaining. If there was nothing to the game but driving the carrot car, I'd still be loving this, let alone all the great gameplay and amazing little touches. The indicators where the chicken/UFO things are, the trail behind the car, the physics/controls; all this and so much more make this a spectacular entry! Really, really well done this is amazing :smiley:
I knew to expect something good from @brainy-beard! This was great fun, took a bit of getting used to but overall a really fun and enjoyable game. Art and animations fit really well, and the audio is great, well done! :smiley:
This is an incredible game, and a really disconcerting but enjoyable experience!!! I can't believe you managed to make this in a Jam, it has SO much potential and I really hope you continue working on it! Well done, this is a remarkable achievement, I'm in awe
This game looks great and the sound creates a great mood. It's a shame you fell ill as with a little more content and a few tweaks this would have been a really top notch entry. Great work though, this is still a fantastic submission, well done :smiley:
