Really good looking game the fire effect with the lighting was great. Interesting and quite unique controls. Good job!
Really good game. Best one I tried in this jam so far. The graphics and the animations was really beautiful. Good sound effects and music as well. The gameplay was interesting and has quite the potential. Maybe some more missions with different new mechanics and it could be a full blown game. Good job!
Good game with intuitive and simple controls. I liked the graphics and the strategic part added by the spinning planet and the direction of the lasers and the vacuum. Good job!
The game looks really nice. I liked the colour palette and the the smokey effect from the fire was a nice detail. Good job!
Good looking and cute graphics and I like the music and sound effects. Quite challenging as well. Good job!
Very nice. I like the high paced action gameplay and the theme is quite humorous. Beautiful pixel art and sweet sound effects as well. Good job!
@doot I'm sorry the game did not start for you. What you could try is to have a look in the properties of the file and see if there is an unblock option at the bottom. Sometimes when extracting downloaded files windows decides to block them for security reasons. Another option could be to try to extract it using something like 7-zip since the built in windows unzip tool might do this kind of blocking.
@doot Unfortunately I'm not sure what could be causing the issue then. What you could try is to run the jar (inside the app folder) directly through the command line if you have java installed and that might give you an error message telling what is going wrong. What kind of graphics card do you have?
I like the low res style graphics, it looks really nice. The gameplay reminds me a bit of portal but this time you don't have to destroy your cube (or flower in this case), but have to save it instead. Good job!
Cool game, I like the graphics style, especially the worm. The controls even though quite tricky gives me a nice retro feel together with the music and sound effects. Maybe combining the power with the fire button would make it a bit more intuitive to aim, as in the longer you hold the fire button the longer the shot will go. Good job!
I like the graphics a lot, as some others have said I also feel the timer is a bit to quick. It would be nice to have little bit more time on the levels. Otherwise it was a good and puzzle experience. Good job!
The game looks really good the pixel art is really beautiful. The controls could be made a bit easier it was kind of tricky to select a new unit sometimes. Interesting idea though, could become something great if expanded on. Good job!
Great game. I like the clean graphics and user interface. It was fun tinkering with which species to spawn first to get the ecosystem going. This kind of game can leave me glued to it for quite a long time, just watching the number go up and down. Good job! We also made a game about an ecosystem for this jam if you want to check it out.
An interesting and fun idea. I like the minimalistic design and the colours was very pretty.
Interesting puzzle mixed with some reacting time gameplay. The graphics are super cute as well as the sound effects. Good job!
It was fun. With some more polishing on the graphics and some optimizations it could be quite good full game. I liked kiting the enemies and trying to time the automatic shot to hit the big horde of enemies behind me. Good job! :)
Cute game. Impressive work for one person in only a weekend. Maybe next you could add some powerups or maybe some buildable defences? Good job!
Nice graphics and I liked the mechanic where the enemies just stun you and don't kill you. It made for some interesting gameplay where you could take hits from enemies intentionally sometimes.
Cool idea. And I really like graphics and animations. Good Job!
I had quite some fun drawing the spells. This is a solid prototype for what could be a good full game. Maybe look into multiplayer next and you could have something similar to magicka but this unique drawing spells mechanic as a twist. Good job!
Really nice looking game! Interesting mechanic about switching around the archer and the cannon. With some upgrades and maybe some more weapons to swap between this could a really cool full game. Good job!
It looked nice :)
Looking really nice, and plays well. I liked the death race. Really impressive amount of content and work for a game jam this short. Good job!
Nicely polished game. Maybe some different difficulties could be a nice additions. Good job!
Nice art, sound and music. The movement could maybe be sped up a bit to get a better feel, and some more interesting spawning behaviour would be nice as well. But all in all very good job and impressive for 72 hours :) With a leaderboard and some polishing you'll have a full game ready.
Nice graphics, and interesting combination of clicker game and defence strategy game. I liked it, great job!
It was quite fun, the collisions could use some work, and maybe a little bit more interesting level design, but what is there already is an impressive amount of content for a weekend game jam. Good job! :)
Nice simple game, works really well. Very good job for a first game! :)
Interesting concept with the rock as a storage place to move things faster. The graphics looks nice as well, good job!
@stingby12 you can hold down space to speed up the game. And I'm not sure what you mean about auto restart, but the game restarts if you lose which happens when Kevin reaches the end of the road
I really like the art of this one, good job!
Really impressive work! The graphics looks really good and the game was fun as well. A little bit more work on the controls vs the gravity of the planets and this would be even better.
Charming game, I liked the boat controls. Good job!
Really good looking game! It was fun to play as well, the controls remind me a bit of snake. Great job!
Cute graphics, Good job!
Cool game
Fun idea and take on the theme, it looks nice as well. Good job!
This game was cool and fun to play. I like the art style. It took a few minutes to get what to do but after that it was a fun experience. I only managed to deliver 21/25 deliveries so far in my two tries. Great job on this one!
Cute game!
Beautiful art on this one, good job!
Fun and easy to understand game. It looks really beautiful as well. We also used Raylib for our submission, fun to find some fellow Raylib users :)
The game looks great, and it is a fun idle/clicker game. I'm really impressed by how much content you managed to get done in this short time. Great job!
@buckmeister Thanks!
@athospap Thanks! In my other game the moose were miners, so they have been miners and now divers so far. Maybe they could make it as sushi chefs as well in the future, who knows. Perhaps that is a game idea for someone else to make. I think there are way too few moose games out there
@beebster-games Thanks! Yeah I agree that the controls could be better. I think the current controls would probably work better with a controller, but I did not have time to try that out. Your control change suggestions sounds good and are in line of what I have thought about trying out if I end up making a full game out of this.
@3deimos Thanks! The idea came from a fake mobile ad so it is not a coincidence that the game reminds you of them :P
Interesting and quite unique idea. Good job!
Cool take on the theme. Nice doom 1-inspired game, and it looks great! Good job everyone!
An interesting and unique idea. The graphics are really nice and fun. Good job!
An interesting and quite unique arcade game idea that worked really well. Well done!
Really good looking game. I like the idea of controlling this big machine by yourself walking around it. Great potential for extending this further with more things to control for the drill. Great job everyone!
Interesting idea with racing and digging, it gives an interesting choice between which to do and it is not obvious which one will be the fastest. And the moles very cute. Great job!
Really good looking game with nice controls. The atmosphere is really well done, it really feels like you are deep under water.
This is the most fun game from this game jam I have tried so far. The combination of pachinko and tower defence works really well. The different tower types are well designed and the art is cute. The sound effects and music help set the mood well. Really impressive work for the short time you have for the jam. Can see some good potential to make this into a full game by adding more levels and maybe a touch of roguelike/roguelite as in the game Peglin. Really good job everyone!
Simple but fun and really well made. A fun take on the theme as well. Great job!
Cool take on the theme. Good job!
Nice game, a good take on the theme. The art is well done and I really liked the soundtrack. Great job all of you!
Good job, especially in such a short time! Also impressive to do a game jam with your own language. The game is an interesting idea and could work even better as a multiplayer game.
An interesting mix of incremental game and rpg. I enjoyed it. The art is looking great as well. Really good job!
Really cute game, I love the art style. The whole game idea is also very unique and quite fun. There is definitely potential for more here for a full game in the future. Great job all of you!
Quite unique game, I liked it. An nice take on the theme as well to start at the depth and move up from it. The gameplay was nice and chill and the music, art and sound effects set the mood to match. Great job!
This was fun to play, I like these incremental/upgrade games. You managed to create a good mood and chill atmosphere. Great job!
Cool looking game, I like the graphics a lot. Really impressive amount of content in the game for just two people on this short time. I think the game is way too punishing at the start though even when following the advice of building food and uran right after the first generator upgrade. But things like that are expected in a game jam where you only have time for very limited playtesting. Has great potential for further development into a full release. Great job!
I like the game idea and the mechanics, it made for an interesting puzzle-like game. Good job
The art was cute and a little gory so good job on the theme, it created an interesting clash of genres.
The art was looking good and well made. I like the wall breaking feature, was fun to be able to shoot through everything
An interesting combination of genres, could do with some kind of running toggle for the character for a bit faster gameplay between blocks
This was really good. I loved the art and you really nailed the theme with an interesting combination of genres. The music really fit well into the game as well.
Interesting choice of genres and well executed. It felt really nice when you got into the rhythm, but also very frustrating whenever you lost it. Good job!
A really good idea that was well executed. As others said sound would really improve the experience, but multiplayer would even more. I can really imagine how fun it would be to play this game with a group of friends. I think you should continue with this project and see where you can take it.
Fun and interesting concept. I liked the simple and good looking art
A fun combination of genres, but it was very hard and stressful. Could definitely become something really good with some polish.
Good art and a fun concept, good job!
A nice idea and well executed. I like the graphics and the style of the game. I think there is a lot of potential for more cool features if you continue with this after the Jam.
Cool idea with nice graphics, good job!
I really liked this combination of genres it was interesting and unique. The art was really cute as well.
Good job! I really like the combination of genres they made a unexpectedly good combination
Really good job, a very good choice of genres to combine that worked surprisingly well together,
The style was funny, I especially liked the animations of the customers. You did a good job on creating fun gameplay with shooter cooking combo. It was quite hard though and could perhaps been a bit easier to start with.
I really liked what was there. The graphics and the animations looked really good and the movement of the ship felt nice specially together with the music. The dialog explaining the whole situation was a nice touch, too bad you were not able to finish the project in time, three days goes by fast. I hope you get around to finish it sometime now after the jam.
Good job on the theme, the art looked good and set a fitting mood.
@FrauKauz Hi thanks for your comment, just click on one of the pieces on the board and click on another and they will swap if that would create a match of 3 or more of the same symbol. Apologies for not having any user feedback for showing which piece is selected.
@sholf Thanks for your kind words, we're glad you liked it :)
@Bros. Yes, we used a framework called libgdx. It is a Java framework for making games for desktop and mobile devices
Really nice game, probably the best I have tried this Jam so far. Loved the simple controls and the upgrade mechanic between rounds. The music was also annoyingly catchy ;). Well done!
