A well-made game, with graphics, sound and music that fit just right. I'd need to play it a few more times to figure out some sort of strategy! Overall, one of the better games I've played for LD44 - well done.
It doesn't want to work in my browser (Firefox), although I've had issues with other Unity based games so probably my set up rather than your game!I just get the music and this black screen with a slider. [Screenshot at 2019-05-12 17-09-39.png](///raw/9bd/22/z/24d56.png)
Didn't like the fact that the bats fly directly across walls towards you, other than that the first couple of levels were fun!
Well that was different - and good! Nice art style, interesting take on a simple platformer, thumbs up from me!
Good fun and nice touches of humour. noticed a couple of typos (I think one was 'handly' instead of handy, can't recall the other sorry).
Well polished and fun with good graphics, sound etc but shouldn't there be a timer or something for each 'activity'?
Nice relaxing game but coudln't seem to get over 15 bees at any one time. A couple of very minor things I noticed - the hit box for the buttons doesn't match their shape and it's not possible to click on a flower with pollen if it's partially visible behind the buttons.
Is there any shooting involved? If so I don't know what key it was bound to and the ship rotates in a peculiar way. Why not put some instructions on the web-page? Other than that it seemed pretty solid with a decent tune and smooth 'dodge' game-play.
Nice little boxy dudes! didn't understand why the clock stopped when I still had time left - is there just a maximum number you can catch on each level. Good work anyway and nice to see Haxe being used +1.
Can't seem to play it - all I get is a wavy pink area at the bottom of the screen when I use left/right. Lol at the them tune though :) Screenshot at 2019-04-28 17-47-16.png
I'm crap at these reaction-type games but I really liked this despite finding it difficult. The graphics are simple and silky smooth and the sound effects are great. Excellent!
20 cards to go and I'm already looking forward to another 300 years! Nice little higher/lower game with catchy tune.Screenshot at 2019-05-01 19-36-57.png
Solid little jump-n-run game. Like the creepy 'money money' sfx. A couple of times after I died the 'press spacebar' overlay remained on screen, had to refresh. Other than that good fun!
As others have said, the graphics are pretty sweet and the sound is good but the controls leave something to be desired - needs some instructions as to what keys do what. The jump is too powerful and jumping from a high place is pot luck. Good effort on your mini desk though :D
Wanting to play but web version doesn't want to work - I get Baby Dino Herd / Unity screen then blackness. This is with Firefox.
Well done - I didn't get very far with the puzzles but it seems a pretty solid little game.
Just trying to play but I can't seem to do anything on the initial screen; the options are 'close' and 'set' either of which can be dragged to the prompt at bottom left but I can't click 'ok', press enter or type anything. What am I doing wrong?
Haha, good fun and I'll never listen to Pink Floyd in the same way again!
Found it a bit tricky to get through the doorways at times. The icons at bottom right and the player could do with being more visible somehow IMHO but they're minor criticisms. Good work!
A pretty neat little game, shame we don't have any blasting or slashing sound effects! Reading the instructions I though melee should be avoided but it turned out it was pretty much essential. Nice work!
Controls are a bit too sensitive and should there be a lap counter? Otherwise, nice little racer.
Yup, pretty neat game. Is there more than one level design?... I'm hopeless at this type of game and continuously died! Needs some exploding pig graphics!
Hehe, novel idea! Nice graphics, sound and humorous content although personally I found the game pretty tricky. Great work.
Nice looking graphics and concept but I think it needs some refinement eg I can jump to the top of the screen on the first level but not over the plant pot. Yeah I bought the wrong thing - to complete that level I have to smack it out of the way. So the player has a 3 in 4 chance of starting off on the wrong foot (unless it can be jumped over with one of the other toys?). Nevertheless, I think it's pretty cool - well done :D
Not usually a fan of this type of game so was surprised I quite enjoyed it! Like the ominous appearance of the robots and the up/down mechanics. If I had to suggest one thing it would be use the mousewheel to change weaps. I used the html5 version and it ran just fine.
Nice gentle game - great work!
Very nice sounds, graphics and layout. Unfortunately I get this nasty graphical glitch which stops me from playing properly. I think it's a Unity issue as I've noticed it with a few Unity games (html5). Screenshot at 2019-04-29 20-37-15.png
@borys It could be a rendering issue with Firefox (or Linux graphics drivers) but it only happens with a few Unity web-based games. I'm sure it's nothing to do with your game per se so don't sweat it :D
A different take on space invaders. Fun!
@jani-nykanen for the Compo everything should be created (with the exception of fonts) in the allocated 48 hours.
How can people rate the game fairly against others when the only version available is one that has had an additional 8 hours spent on it?
Haha, ended up protecting myself with a swarm of wardens! Needs some polish/bug fixing but pretty cool.
Well I enjoyed that! Nice idea, good graphics and fitting sound. The only thing that threw me is that it's possible to launch your last coin and thereby end the game - maybe the last coin should be unthrowable?
Nice concept and well presented but tricky to play for a left-hander using wasd etc so couldn't get very far. Any change of including cursor keys for input?
Fantastic. Great gfx, sounds and humorous touches.
Nice entry, especially for a first game. Atmospheric sound and graphics, good concept, well done! (Like the dead enemy/empty battery animation/model)
Nice work, fun for a quick blast until I was sausaged (is that a verb?)!
Slightly different take on the last stand/horde theme - 48 seconds was the best I could manage. Fitting music and decent graphics. Thumbs up!
Nice! Stuttered occasionally and I suck at platformers so a bit frustrating in places (my problem not your game!). Well done.
Very well done. It was clear right from the main menu that this was going to be a quality entry.
Simple but fun, well done.
Started the game, beat up the first guy to the right, tried to suck his blood. Froze. Reload page and retry x 3, same result. Looks like it should be great but can't play it.
Web version: I got stuck like this. Nothing happened, ie I didn't die, couldn't move etc. Seems like it could be fun if fixed up though! Screenshot at 2019-05-01 11-59-24.png
Decent game but the controls feel a bit sluggish. Is it just me or is it quite difficult?
Agree with others, the start/tutorial is neat. Great little platformer with nice art/music and mechanics.
That is a really neat little game (and nice to see a Defold game in there)!
Nice idea, well presented.
Plays ok but it's possible to return the ball at such a tight angle that it takes literally 30 seconds for it to reach the other end. Fix that and it'd be much better but well done anyway!
As the others say, it's a fun game and I enjoyed it more than I expected. I think a few times I passed through a ring and it didn't register but no big deal as there are always more.
Nice graphics and sound, waaay too hard for me! Yes, needs mouse cursor hidden. Good work!
Looks like an interesting game but I couldn't read the changing text easily and got frustrated as a result.
Needs the Charlie Daniels fiddle :D Nice little game but definitely needs a health bar!
Haha yeah, you get points deducted for putting ink dots in the wrong place so it's easy to go bust straight away if you just draw randomly :D
Thanks all for the kind words, much appreciated :D
@daria-toni You score 1,000 for every blob that's set in your copy and the original. You score -1,000 for any that is set in the original but not in the copy. Er, I think I've explained that correctly :D
Thanks friends. @mrnyarlathotep - yes, I've already made some small changes to the patterns generated to make it more interesting. Not sure about adding hints such as the middle of the grid, might make it too easy but I'll certainly think about it!
@lesinvisible "Though you can often cheet the game by coloring every pixel in the copy" That's true, I've modified the logic slightly in my post-compo version. With regard to the theme, I'll go with the majority view.
@sundancekid Yes, as I mentioned above, I've modified the post-compo game to stop cheating and I've added more features. I'll upload a revised version after the voting has finished.
@shunaky Yeah, didn't have time to fix up the menus for mouse control. Thanks for the review!
That was a giggle! Nicely tuned mechanics, fitting graphics, hilarious 'sound effects'. Great. Maybe you should have called it Catapult though!? :D
Nice! Good art and sounds, a different experience to anything else I've played so far.
Good effort. It seemed to work ok but not sure what the overall object is/how to 'win'.
Fun little game, good music and graphics with just enough frustration factor when you're trying to get the enemy in your sights. Well done!
Clear graphics, simple to understand concept - nice! sometimes coins would't hit the enemies if they were standing by a corner - maybe make the coin hit-box a bit smaller?
I think I tried all the permutations. Nice graphics and music.
"I made this game with my cousin.Code, art, music, by me and ideas by my cousin."
Compo games are supposed to be by a single person :/ Did you mean to enter it in the jam?
Good bit of fun but I kept running out of money (not enough to buy health).
Yup, nice little game once you get the mechanics. I lasted until level 6. The only thing I'd add is some sort of tooltip so you don't have to continuously pick up weapons to compare them. Solid!
I ran out of juice for the gun and melee seemed impossible when swamped with half a dozen clones. Could be good with some tweaking, limited view and maze design makes for good tension :D
It's different! Good tune.
Not sure where it was going, I just ended up endlessly clicking 'sell blood' until I'd got 16 limbs and then got bored and nothing else seemed to happen after the first visitor. A bit confusing that regen is in pints/sec whereas total blood is in litres!
Played the post-jam version as I don't use Windows. Seems very slick but surely needs some sound! Nice.
