Amazing game! I love the art, and was fun to play. Awesome concept behind the story, nice sounds. It would be nice if the game's story were just a bit longer.

Nice graphics! The idea behind was cool, movement was a bit weird :sweat_smile: . Otherwhise it's a nice, funny game! UI could've been better (for example the game over screen wasn't filling the whole screen) but that's ok.
Outstanding graphics for a 3d game made in 72 hours!(although the fake skybox was kind of ruining it). Also really innovative i think, and really relaxing atmosphere. The only two things i want to say is that the painting mechanics were quite difficult, the brush was kind of too fast in reaching the paper sheet , and an erase function would've been nice. That said, i will surely keep this game on my computer!
Cool game, i like the graphics. At first i didn't get the logics of the game, and player movements were kind of slow, but it was fun.
Cool game! I like the pixel graphics, and it was fun to play! Well made level design, as many people said. Some backgrounds in the rooms and it would've been perfect.
This game is brilliant! Audio is quite good (the background music becomes a bit boring at some point), graphics are nice, original and well made, and i really enjoyed the gameplay. UI is also good i think. Probably the best points in this game are graphics and gameplay.
Nice game! Better than i expected, gameplay and audio are the best parts. It matches well the theme, funny title,lol
Not the best graphics, but it's 3D, so... Not a big problem.
Hi, thanks for playing my game. I just released a new version, now the bugs should be fixed (including keys not spawning, hitbox doing weird stuff, audio clips not reproducing, etc.)
@dudum-lare Thank you for your review! Yeah, perhaps i will make a post-jam version, with improved sounds and effects, and some polishing. The game wasn't perfect at it release, so...
@neowhoru yes, that was actually a feature :sweat_smile: as i thought the game was too difficult. I forgot to mention that.
@oddballdave :ok_hand: Thanks!
@exilegl Oh yes you're right! Looks like i didn't think about the "enemies dropping potions" aspect. Yeah, unfortunately i know about the portal issue, it does that only on the WebGL version, i don't know why. And yes, i put Yoda's death sound in the game :laughing:
Unfortunately i couldn't complete the first level. Level design isn't really perfect :sweat_smile: , colliders were quite big. Graphics aren't that bad (i like the player sprite, but it kind of didn't fit the environment, i think) , but i love the death sound :laughing:
Funny game! though the collisions weren't so precise and the commands not so responsive and snappy, but the idea behind is not bad.
Simple, yet fun game. Music was good, controls were good, water reloading time was the correct amount. Art maybe was a little bit lacking. As @crishnate said it would've been better with some background elements, or as i think, a brighter and more lively background color or some variety in dirt and grass tiles, but i can understand considering the time was short. Also i couldn't reach the end, at some point there was a spot too high where i couldn't jump, even after trying many times. Otherwise fun game.
OK guys! The cutted screen issue is now solved. You can try to play again, it should work now.
Whoops, for some reason the comment got posted several times.
Cool and solid game. Great (and cute) art and gameplay. Cool to see even a tip box! It was actually useful to me. Audio was also well-made.
This game is so funny! Original idea. About the gameplay, it was really fun to play. Sounds were good enough, even tho the sound it makes when a classmate gets caught cheating is always the same and they all look a bit like clones :laughing: but that's understandable considering the short time. The humor was also cool, funny to see some killer-type of supervisor. A pause menu would have been useful.
Cool game! Even with a simple concept of two movements it's really, really funny! Especially when you go on for a long time. Solid idea and nice art! I will keep this one in my computer for sure. It's quite addicting.
For me it's the same as @chez3 , it reminded me of I Am Bread and those games where you jump around from an object to the other. Fun game anyways, i liked the concept of jumping following the heartbeat's rythm.
The graphics are very cool, but the sound effects and sountrack are the absolute best i've found this far! Good job. About the gameplay, maybe it's just me but i couldn't pile up the buildings, they just kept falling over because there is no friction, so at the slightest angle they just slide down and fall into the ocean. Other than that, good job, i can see you put a lot of creativity into it.
Cool game! A simple idea that was well-executed. Sound effects are REALLY good, and there's some nice feedback, both graphically and audio. Reminds me of the [TypeRacer](https://play.typeracer.com/) web game. Maybe you took inspiration from it? I also like the fact that the words that come up aren't random, and have a meaning. Anyways, really good job, especially considering you submitted it for the compo!
Ok, so at first i misunderstood the instructions and fired the antimatter rifle at the black hole itself, which led me to the earth exploding and credits rolling quickly, THAT cracked me up LMFAOOOOO
Also, the black hole's shader was e x t r e m e. I wouldn't have been able to pull that off, nice job :)
Hmmm... The sound effects were missing, they really improve the experience and impact by 2x, and in general there was really lack of feedback (some examples are adding screenshake, character or enemies changing color when they get hit, [like here](https://www.pinterest.com.mx/pin/431149364324735419/) and [here](https://img.craftpix.net/2020/01/Free-3-Character-Sprite-Sheets-Pixel-Art2-720x480.jpg), and some particle effects). Also, the rifle would've been a lot better automatic, it was kind of annoying to click and click the mouse all the time. The game was also just about firing the weapon and moving around, and as @stalemeat said it would've been more fun to play with ammo boxes spawning around the map. That said, don't feel discouraged! Other than that, the art was really really well-made, and especially the story, was really cool. It's a good game. Plus, i also made games a lot worse than this one for sure :)
Very interesting submission, the graphics were ABSOLUTE top tier among all the ones i've tried in this jam, and the soundtrack not bad. But i felt kind of lost, and it wasn't much entertaining. Just my honest opinion, maybe it's just me :)
I really really like pinball, it takes me back to the old "Space Cadet Pinball" found in old Windows versions, and this was a very clever idea overall, with some nice graphics and soundtrack.
A simple and original idea, that is also fun to play. Definitely coming back to play this one again, from time to time. And the title makes me laugh every time, i don't know why :)
Nice game! Graphics are really really cool, sound effects are good, and the game itself is very polished, and fun to play. Only one thing, maybe it's just my opinion, but i think the soundtrack is a bit too electronic. Still, good job considering it's a game jam.
Man, the art style is so unique, i love it! Soundtrack is good as well, and the whole game gives a unique old game/retro/fever dream vibe that i like (i also like the old CD cover, it takes me back) . I also like the fact that the camera tilts a bit when you move. The jump distance was insane, i had to completely recalculate distances everytime i jumped, but i don't see it as a negative thing. Overall, good job
Nice graphics! As the others have said, the movement physics and all were too difficult. There is no friction at all, so when i tried jumping on platforms i just slipped past them. And i don't really get the flying mechanic, i guess it's just to jump higher, but i thought you could actually fly across the island. I understand it's a game jam though, so it's ok :)
Maaaan, i love this game! I like the graphics, the screenshake, the gameplay, SFX and soundtrack as well! I would play this all day. The amount of polish and details put into this is crazy :O It even has a global leaderboard, how did you pull all of that off? And, it's also a very, very original (and hilarious) game. Great job.
Love it! Great idea, especially the name. Took me a bit to get the hang of it and survive for more than 3 seconds, but after that, it became a lot of fun, probably the most fun submission i've played so far :D Also reminds me a bit of the game "I am Bread"
Cool game :) The idea is very original and fits the theme, and i like the art style. Maybe it's just me, but i think the single colored theme gets a bit repetitive after playing for a while. Nonetheless, a solid game.
@vixenmink Yeah, unfortunately Unity's WebGL sucks, i can try but i'm not sure i can fix it, i'm sorry. Maybe i'll make a Windows build
@3bt Which browser are you using? There should be invisible walls on the borders. Also remember to put the game in fullscreen, because otherwise it's cropped :)
There isn't much of a gameplay, but the story hit hard.
Very fun experience. It's interesting that you always have to plan between fixing the holes or cheering up the crew, and the fact that enemies from other ships throw insults at your crew made me laugh a lot :)
After getting the hang of it, it got a lot more fun! I like how the objects are completely random stuff, and the fact that you don't have to build a single pile of objects but you can "distribute" them on the table :)
Nice graphics, sounds and gameplay are not bad, but maybe, i think it would be better with a score counter that gets shown as you play the game, like how much time you survived until that point and not only in the end. Other than that, good job :)
Nice art and idea for the levels. Maybe it's me, but i think the water droplet speed was too fast, so it was kind of hard to progress with levels.
Unfortunately at some point there was a bug that made it impossible to continue, i got in close contact with an npc and got confined in the house, but for some reason the 2 npcs that were in the park spawned in my house as well, and then the "return to your home" message kept appearing endlessly. But i like the cartoon/paper hand drawn style, and the "badeeng" sound effect for incoming messages was hilarious lol.
Nice game! The gameplay is a lot of fun, kept me entertained for a while. Also nice graphics, i really like the cartoon art style. It would've been a lot, a lot better with a soundtrack, but nonetheless nice job! I will definetively come back to play this one again from time to time. My high score is 72 :)
tipping over the hamsters was so fricking hilarious lol
on a serious note, i have no idea how you managed to make all of this in such short time, nice job! camera and collisions were a bit weird, but the reset button was quite useful to fix the latter, as i once got stuck
As soon as i saw this game, i knew i had to try it. Very very original idea, good rock soundtrack and graphics. The 8-directional movement was a bit frustrating at first, but once i got the hang of it, it became fun and satisfying super fast. Very good replayability factor, definitively going to play this again from time to time in the future.
