Nice game! I enjoyed the graphics and the calm atmosphere. A little less fond of the music as it is too repetitive for me.

Nice game! I enjoyed the graphics and the calm atmosphere. A little less fond of the music as it is too repetitive for me.
Good job with the graphics and the sounds! It helps a lot with the immersion.It would be great to see the enemy's health.
I had a lot of fun with this! The movement of the fighter are hilarious. You should definitely invest some more time into the game. The end result could be amazing.
I had a lot of fun with this. The music is very fitting.
Nice job. It would be nice if the game was a little bit more challenging.
Great idea! I wish there were more levels to play.
Interesting approach to the theme indeed. Sadly I couldn't really test your game as I couldn't go back to the market from "Home". The button "Market" didn't do anything. I tried using Chrome and Brave, same issue on both.
@thatsommes Unfortunately, it did not. I don't know if it is related but the same happens with the "Options" button on the main menu.
Nice work with your game!
I encountered one bug on the main menu when opening the game in fullscreen (3440 x 1440): Menu_bug.PNG
Thanks a lot for all the comments and suggestions.
I continue working on this game. It is a big learning experience for me as it is actually the first time I have something to show at the end. I will add sound as soon as I have reworked some other stuff. Same goes for the particles, I still need to figure out how to do them properly.
The humor is great! I hope you will continue the development.
Nice little game. Initially, it is a bit surprising that you start again at the first level if you die.
Interesting idea! It makes you think.
Cute small game. I enjoyed the graphics and the difficulty progression. Swiping the obstacles felt a little strange on the web version but I'm sure it feels natural on mobile. I couldn't see the link with the theme. Congrats for your entry!
Fun little game. It took me a while to understand how to Buy something with my blood.
Overall I enjoyed the game. I liked the drawing style and the songs. However, it is annoying having to search on the whole map for a single missing enemy. As you suggested, a mini-map would solve this issue.
Nice game! The screaming sound is a lot of fun.
Well done! Really fun game. The graphics and the music are excellent. The roll animation made me laugh. However, shooting at enemies at an awkward height can get frustrating due to the impossibility to aim at them easily and the use of the theme is rather weak.
Interesting controls! I like it.
Fun game indeed! Had a blast.
As much as I hated the moving sounds of the brain, I enjoyed everything else. Great job, Quill! Thanks a lot for the entertaining streams and all the programming content. Keep it up!
The beam is a cool idea. I also flew up the first time and was only stopped by the invisible wall. I should definitely better read the description next time! I don't know if it is my screen but I had trouble to see anything within the shaft. At best what is immediately around the vessel so I collided with a wall I didn't see coming.
Besides this encounter with the wall, it was fun!
Cool entry. The start feels a bit slow, which is a petty as there is so much to discover! Unfortunately, one of my workers decided to leave at the second I hired him ... that's inconvenient ...
Overall, I enjoyed the game. With some more fine tuning it would be awesome!
I got here following your post on the procedural level generation. It got me intrigued.
I like the idea of having different phases. The tutorial is a great plus as well. The reentry effect made me laugh. Great small touch. On the contrary, I didn't really enjoy the controls during the re-entry phase as it felt a little bit clunky to me. However, this could be a personal preference as I prefer to have a fast moving vessel for those kind of games.
Overall, good job. I'm sure the game will get even very good if you keep working on it.
Well polished game, indeed. As an addition, I would have enjoyed a way to track the progress. A counter of how many pumpkins I could sell for example.
Nice job overall!
Amazing sound and graphics! I encountered a few issues with the jump - The length of the jump doesn't seem to be consistent all the time.
Thanks a lot for the amazing streams! Keep up the good work!
Great sound and graphics!
@noshiz : Thanks for playing! I struggled to balance the game. I asked a friend to test the game during the jam. He managed to accumulate 300k with an attention level that did not increase anymore. Based on this, I significantly reduced the amount of money earned ... maybe a little too much. The textured tiles do not have any function. I wanted to break the monotony with a some Dirty basement feeling.
@pedro-miranda Thanks a lot for testing my game and your feedback. Noted for the tutorial. I thought that the UI explanation would be clear enough. Next time, I will create a small tutorial instead of a static UI description.
@fizzpowmike1, @sharbelfs Thanks a lot for your feedback! When pausing the game (by pressing Escape), there is a button Help showing again the UI explanation. Would an indication of the existence of this possibility have helped you to better understand the game?
I enjoyed the graphics and music but the level design could be improved. Falling down and having to wait what felt like an eternity so that a platform can get you back to the starting point breaks the pace of the game.
Overall, it is a good entry. Congrats!
Fantastic entry! Congrats!
A lot of fun. The take on the theme is out of the ordinary. Fantastic!
Great idea and concept. Also very challenging, more than I anticipated.
Great job! The game feels well polished. As others have already mentioned, the music helps a lot with getting into the game when things get faster and more difficult. It took me a few moments to figure out what part of the map I have on the screen at a given moment. It would have been nice to have some sort of camera frame on the map as well. Overall, it is a very cool entry. Congrats!
Good entry! I really liked the movement of the small flare. It felt very natural and was responsive - even on a trackpad. Nevertheless, I found the game to be a little bit to punishing for my taste.
Had a lot of fun. The game is polished but I agree with the others, the theme seems to have been forgotten.
Fun little game ! The coworkers are indeed not very nice. I encountered one bug: I got stuck between two chairs on Thursday. I couldn't move anymore and got killed by my coworkers.
Interesting take on the theme. I enjoyed the experience :smiley:
Great game ! I enjoyed the art style and the music. Keep it up!
Interesting take on the theme. The game is well polished with make it an nice experience. Two points that could be further improved in my opinion: - The main character feels very slowly. - When starting the Webgl version not in full screen, half of the discussion texts are cut off.
Thanks for the game and keep it up :smile:
Good idea. I like the simple art and sound effects. Only two but two pleasant ones ;) Keep it up!
I love the art style! It took me some time to understand how to feed my pet but otherwise it was absolutely amazing. Great job!
Nice game ! The music and sound effects suit very well the atmosphere of the game. They add a lot to the experience. Keep it up !
Amazing work! The best game I have played so far!
Nice game! I had a lot of fun with it! On the improvement side, I think the collisions could be improved as sometimes you think that you can go through but in reality you can't. I also nearly managed to get stuck somewhere :laughing:
Nice game. It took me several attempts to notice the alien but once I found it I enjoyed the experience.
Very fun entry! Nice work on the art and death animations :smile:
Pleasant experience overall. As others have already mentioned, it feels rather complete and well polished. However, it is a little too unforgiving for my taste. Dieing because you hit the back of a spare, which had already nearly left the tile is more frustrating than enjoyable. Adding a system of lives - giving the player multiple chances - would have greatly reduced the frustration feeling in my opinion.
Overall, it is a good entry. Good job :smile:
Amazing art and audio !
The game looks great but the keyboard controls made it difficult for me to fully enjoy the game.
Anyways, great game :smile:
Cool entry! I liked your take on the theme. The intro levels were not really interesting but I had a lot of fun in the Free Play.
On the improvement side, I think the controls could be improved for better quality of life with features such as duplicating multiple pipes at the same time and deleting a pipe with Right click.
Congrats on the game!
Fun little game. As mentioned by others, the movement of the player is quite slow which leads to a significant amount of waiting. Besides that I enjoyed it :smile:
Great job!
This game is hilarious! Absolutely fantastic!
Cool little game.
The earth is well protected:

The game requires some tuning as the turrets could protect the planet by themselves. Good job :smile:
Cool idea ! I like your take on the theme.
A lot of blood was shed! Fun entry to say the least. As mentioned previously, mentioning how to respawn in game would be a welcome improvement.
Cool entry! A lot of fun.
Keep up the good work. Congrats!
Cool idea with the hamster! While I enjoyed the cut-scenes and the graphics, the music was to repetitive and the controls were a little to clumsy for me but that may be up to personnel taste.
Many sticks were collected.
It feels strange that the character is always walking down by itself. This makes the movement feel heavy.
Nice game! The music fits very well into the story and gameplay. The simple graphics are not an issue in my opinion. Great job :smile:
Interesting concept to say the least! Congrats for your entry :smile:
Graphics and sound suit very well to the game. I would have liked a small explanation at the start as I wasn't obvious how to deal with the bats. I had to read another comment to learn that I could kill them by jumping on them. After that, the game was quite enjoyable. Good job :smile:
Interesting idea ! Great visuals as well :smiley:
Cool idea! The mechanic with the crossbow and fire is really nice. I would have liked some sort of feedback after having died - even if it's just waiting for a second. Instantly respawning threw me of the first few times. Good entry overall!
Amazing entry!
Simple game! In had a hard time adjusting to the controls but afterwards it was enjoyable. Good job!
Unfortunately I couldn't read the explanation text in the game due to a lack of contrast :cry:
Nice entry! I had some troubles at the start to see whether I was mining something or not but besides that I enjoyed the experience. Congrats for your entry :smile:
I'm not really a card game person but I really enjoyed this one! The switch between 2D and 3D graphics is a nice touch. The music is amazing! Congrats for your entry :smiley:
The death sound and animation are hilarious. The art style is great. I am not a huge fan of the movement mechanics however. Good entry overall nevertheless!
Lovely and fun game! The damage feedback on some enemies requires a bit of fine tuning as the visual doesn't come through as good on darker enemies.
Interesting idea. The tutorial is a bit overwhelming at first but it's a fun game to play if you take the time!
Nice idea! The music is amazing and helped a lot for the mood. After having figured out the mechanics, the game is pretty enjoyable. On the improvement side, the UI at the start does not scale properly within the browser so I had to open it in Full screen to start the game. It would also have been nice to have some sort of explanation about the mechanics - would it only have been some text on this page.
Nice graphics! They would have been even better with some animations :smiley: I encountered some (performance?) issues after a while: the screen started stuttering when moving down. Overall, it's an enjoyable game!
Your game is pretty much the first idea we discussed within the team! Solid game loop and mechanics. Besides maybe a minimap, I don't think that the game need any additional feature but some further polish (animations for the submarine, soundeffects, ...) would have been nice. Overall it's a solid entry, congrats!
Nice idea! The core mechanics seem really solid. Unfortunately, I faced some issues with refueling as, for some reason, I couldn't get it to work so I couldn't go as fare as I would have liked to.
Simple but nicely executed game. It's an interesting choice to make such a game with 3D graphics rather than 2D. Congrats on your entry!
Good job for a first entry. The character got stuck from time to time without any apparent reason. The areas with the upwards pointing arrows got me frustrated as well. Overall it's a good first entry but is lacking some polish. I hope to see you back for the next one :smile:
Great mood. The sound helps a lot to create it. The story is immersive but a little bit to predictable - at least with the choices I made - for my liking. Overall, it's a good game. Great job!
Cool to see another game made with Godot. As mentioned by others, the game is too dark or without enough contrast as it is very hard to see the level. After adapting my monitor, the game was enjoyable :slight_smile:
Interesting take on the theme. The controls are not intuitive but one get used to them after a while. Cool art :smile:
Simple but pleasant game. Having to move with the mouse is not intuitive at first. Firing seems a little under powered so grenade it was :boom: :smile: :smirk:
Great dialogues :laughing: The graphics are amazing. The audio is a bit to repetitive for my taste. Good job!
Nice graphics. The game would greatly benefit of any sort of progression system.
Interesting concept! The controls were a bit confusing at the start but I got used to them.
Impressive how much you got done. I had some troubles with the interface at the start but got used to it after some time. Congrats on the entry!
Interesting take on the theme with nice and pleasant graphics. I liked the idea and concept. Somehow I managed to win on the first try :joy: . I must be a born crisis manager :rolling_eyes:
To further improve the game, I think that adding some music and sounds to the game would have helped with the experience. Also I found it a bit odd to have the contextual information at the top far away from the selectable options at the bottom.
Thanks all for the feedback and constructive criticism. @april-lehman, what browsers were you using? We are aware of some issues with Firefox. Thanks!
Great entry. The game is nicely polished, especially the pixel art. It's a lot of fun. The integration with the theme is the only weakness, I think. Having such limited time to select the spell has a tendency to create frustration rather than enhancing the gameplay.
Great entry! Engaging gameplay and it feels very polished. Congrats!
Well made game! I'm absolutely terrible at it but had a lot of fun. Great job!
The game is visually very pleasant. Great job! As mentioned previously, the game is lacking a difficulty curve so it gets repetitive rapidly. I'm sure it's something that could be fixed by either adding different obstacles or gradually increasing the run speed.
Pleasant game! It's a nicely executed concept with a good touch of humor.
Greatly polished game! Calm and relaxing gameplay. Congrats on the entry
Pleasant little game! I didn't release at first I could reinforce unstable blocks (who reads instructions anyways, right?) but once I figured it out the game was pretty fun. The game is pretty easy as most levels could be solved by placing a single reinforcement.
I would have enjoyed some music or sound.
Overall, this is a great entry!
Cute game, nice concept and execution! Congrats on the entry!
For a second jam, it's a nice game. I agree with previous comments on the slow path of the game.
Cool concept. A lot of fun! Congrats on the entry.
Gorgeous graphics. Together with the music the game has a great atmosphere.
