I really don't like clickers because they are so addicting and I couldn´t stop playing this one, so it must be good. BUt it wasn´t too long so it didn´t feel like i wasted too much time. Great job! It was a little frustrating that they go after items that they already have, but besides that it was really polished.
What a polished and fun game, loved the retro feel. I think a bit more control over the flock (like with WASD movement instead of mouse) would have been nice, but it makes sense that a flock is not so easy to maneuver. Huge respect that you did all of this with your own engine! I will look into your repo when I find some time.
Probably the entry with the most creative take on the theme I´ve played thus far. It took me like 4 times to get past the first dungeon level because my camera got stuck somewhere every time, so I had to restart the whole game. A restart button for the current floor would have been nice ^^. But besides the usual few bugs an extremely strong entry. I loved jumpung from one monster head to another xD
Fun little tower defense game, took me way too long to realize that i could use my function keys to quick buy, a little text ingame would have been great. Good Job!
Your game has a great atmosphere and i love the music, it fits well. I think one or two more tips would have been great to get people started, not many have the patience to search for long, when they plan to test many more games in a jam. Also some kind of highlighting of important objects (like the other dolphins) would have been of big help. I swam a full cicrcle before I realized there are other dolphins to speak to. Still, its a great entry, keep it up! ^^
Edit: great title xD
Great atmosphere and look, felt a little bit like exploring a Zelda Dungeon ^^, would be great if the torch emitted more light while on the ground, so you can place it strategically while handling other objects. Good job and keep it up :D
@glurgludor @jona-scheidig thanks for your nice comments :) and you guys are right, we actually joked that there is not enough gaming in our game xD. We would have liked to include some minigames or riddles but there was just not enough time (tbh, we spent most of our time on art, so i guess we could have prioritized a little bit different)
Thats deep bro
You guys absolutely COOKED, there is nothing I can say that hasn´t already been said! Huge respect!
My second geblin was a beast so I got pretty far :D. I liked the music a lot, especially the goblin noises woven into it.
Hey guys, I saw the video you guys added and your explanations, but shoulnd´t it be fine (according to the rules) to fix gamebreaking bug even after the deadline. In your case it might not be gamebreaking but is stopping many from trying it, so I think it should be fine to still upload the .exe, just note it on your page.
Great game, loved your sfx and music in particular, it greated a fitting atmosphere. My only point of critique would be the character movement combined with the cave design at some points. It was really frustrating to fall off a blocks other side multiple times (maybe its a skill issue, i must admit) and missing the attack. Broader platforms or a little more control over the character would fix this and make it perfect. Keep up the grind. :D
Simple and well executed idea. I have to second @auto that turning speed got frustratingly slow when your drill got faster. I also would have liked, if the drill "fell down" already existing paths. Keep it up! ^^
Pretty chalanging, found myself trying again and again. Sadly not enough brainrot in this one, I can recommend the Stimulation Clicker by neal.fun for inspiration xD (I tried to embed a link here, but it did not work...)
@bartholomheow I feel you, we also would have liked to add some more stuff, but the time crunch was real
The change to a different kind of game was great. good job. Maybe a little bit more stuff on the descent and/or a way to speed up downward would have been great. The last fight was fun, I luckily got the hang of just drilling back and forth and at the same time dodging his attacks before I died.
