Essentially what the others are saying: great story, great mood. Only thing to improve would be the buttons. They were kinda hard to hit with the mouse. Maybe assign a key for each. Other than that: great game!
Wow! At first I thaught: This is waaay too easy. But then I noticed there where more levels. It was a nice paced, satisfying game. Thank you and good luck!
I like it! As others pointed out the mouse sensitivity was too low for me. But I liked the aesthetics and the sounds! Thanks for your game, it was fun!
I liked the *look* and the feel of the game. Also the *idea* of moving two eggs is quite cool, I did never see something like this before.
Sadly my PC was a bit too slow in performance, which dampened the fun a little. Also downloading half a GB took a while. But those two things are not the games fault (I think)
All in all, really *impressive*, especially given the timeframe!
Sadly I got totally lost in the prison and even with the guide and after 10 minutes I didn't find an exit. Did you let somebody testplay the game? Maybe that would've been a good idea.
Nontheless, I really **liked the idea itself**, also the design and the character (letter) animation ;)
Could you maybe explain, how to run it? In both of the downloads there only is a "Contents" folder and nothing to run... Thanks in advance!
At first I was a bit confused by the controls, especially "W" doing nothing, I kept hitting it and losing. After figuring it out, I really liked the gameplay itself, it's hard but not too hard, I wanted to try again a few times! Thanks for this game!
This is really good! At first I thought the graphics were too "busy" but I got used to id really fast. The game is hard but not too hard (best I could do was 24). The graphics and the sound fit really good. This is a nice package!
Nice idea, for me it was really hard to find a balance. As soon as I removed or added a species, my planet died in like 10 seconds :slight_frown: But I really like the concept itself, with a bit more work (more than is available in the compo (oof)), this could be really fun. Thanks for your game! :smiley:
I had trouble cutting the connections but other than that, great game. A bit slow, as others already said. But I liked it.
After I figured out the timings of the jumps, it was fun! The first trys were a bit frustrating but then I got a hang of it.
There is a small bug that when you land on the edge of a platform, you cant move. Was eaten by a hendgehog a few times.. :laughing:
All in all: great experience!
I liked it. The only thing I would improve is *adding a health bar*. I didn't know when I would die.
Also I really liked the idea. That was refreshing!
For me it worked and it was really fun. After 25 points there were no platforms anymore but I really liked the ballsack style :laughing:
I really like the graphics and the mood of your game. I think the interaction rate is a bit off, every time I increase it, the ecosystem dies. Other than that it is a nice simulation (maybe more of a simulation than a game, but that's totally ok!)
I really liked the music too. It fit the style (graphics and color scheme) perfectly in my opinion. It lagged a bit for me, especially when "shooting", but that (surprisingly) didn't take much of the fun away. It was hard but not too hard, once i got used to the mechanics, I really liked the gameplay!
As other commenters pointed out, I also didn't find the ax. I would have really loved to explore more of the world (especially the people and forbidden areas) but the fire died before.. Nice work, nontheless!
Okay the game itself is quite good, I think defending hitler is pretty tastless but thats just my opinion and I won't let it influence my vote. I am german, so maybe I am more sensible to something like this...
Other than that, it was good, nice work with the models and weapon implementation!
Same as others pointed out: I really liked it for the first few minutes but the fun began to fade. Maybe top down would've been a better choice. But I liked the style and the gameplay itself!
@mde Sadly I didn't have time left to do the sound effects, so I used some from freesound.org . The mood was more important for me than doing my own (which would definitely be worse). But next time I will :slight_smile:
Great game. At first it was really hard to hit the animals, but then I got used to it. It also head a nice mood and graphics!
