nice game very cool atmosphere.
You have to pick up the pine cones before you can plant the trees ;)
Hey thank you all for commenting :)
I'm still working on the controls and will post a post competition version once they are working.
@matthias_zarzecki: yeah just random points sampled on the surface of the sphere. cubes translated to that position with the surface facing "up" and some random height variation. i just pressed "regenerate" until it looked cool ;)
nice game :) i killed 2 kittens :|
fun game :D
don't trust the guy who says "hug me"
I hugged him and now I'm dead.
I like to build two fronts and crush the rebel scum in the middle. *rampage* ;)
nice visuals and challenging gameplay. good job :)
cool game :) (also my cat's name is schrödinger)
I liked this.
thanks for all comments and suggestions :)
@Vasileiadis I tried using a fixed camera, that caused other problems (e.g. objects being hidden behind other objects, so you can't select them anymore)
@ZYXer: I will change camera look to right mouse button in the post-compo version so you can rotate the camera while holding an object.
more cubes of death :) i liked it.
nice game :-)
inverted mouse version :) nice
cool concept :)
really liked this one. very atmospheric / zen-like ;)
thanks. I fixed the weird stuttering and mouse bug I introduced last second before uploading^^
@zenmumbler weird... I will rebuild and reupload it maybe that helps.
I felt a bit lost at first, but once you figure it out it gets challenging. good entry. (The font is not very readable though)
For only one hour of level design that has quite some nice gameplay
Nice work :) a bit on the hard side. Next time please don't make an installer, most people prefer just having a zip file. Good job
Doing a networked game in that kinda timeframe is already hard.
Good gameplay mechanics kinda challenging :)
Very nice Illustrations also liked the writing. Wouldnt have guessed that this was done in only 3 days.
Love the idea and theme. I tried it with an oculus with touch controllers. The controls felt very hard to use, probably because they were tested on a vive. Really nice job
Hey thanks for all the comments and suggestions and yes I agree with most of them. The controls are suboptimal :) Interpolated/fluid grow was on my list but didnt make it in time. Thanks for trying everyone. @philstrahl thanks for including koffer in your list, glad that you liked it.
Very intimate and reduced style, enjoyed my time with it :)
Good interpretation of the theme. The controls are a bit difficult at times. And the radius for collecting protons could be a bit more forgiving or even letting the atom attract the particles within a certain radius. very cool entry.
pandas <3
Pretty difficult but solid mechanics.
Very detailled modelling and materials for such a short amount of time. Looks really good. Nice gameplay idea that fits well with the theme. Wouldnt mind a few more puzzles :) Really nice work!
Wow, really nice work for first game jam
Yay morse code :) Nice idea and well done
Very nice mechanics, they work really well. Good implementation. Excellent entry.
Cute bees
Nice game mechanics and fun to play. Good work :)
When I try to shoot all I see is a yellow glow. Maybe I am doing something wrong?
wow :)
Works well with the theme. Very solid implementation. Mechanics are a bit confusing at first :)
Extremely fun game for just 2 hours
Hey :) this was interesting and fit the theme well
I love those factorio type games and fits the theme well. Pretty difficult to pull off in that short time. Well done.
thanks :) @mollekake it ends when 50 boxes drop on the floor.
@mashas it ends when 50 boxes fall on the floor :) If you suck in boxes of the wrong color code you get one point deducted.
Very impressive and quite polished for compo :) fun
The mouse seemed to have some weird acceleration other than that pretty good entry
Very nice entry :) the music was fitting, loved the consistent art style. Nice sound design as well and a cute ☃
Good concept hart to do in the small amount of time
Nice mood and solid entry :) had fun
It's okay to carry cats on your head :) nice one
Did you really make all the assets and animations in 48 hours? pretty impressive
Very nice and unique idea, the music was also very fitting.. good stuff.
@jk5000 thanks. i changed it
Very nice mood and pretty clever mechanics. Good job
GOATS :D
very polished
Thank you for making it
Very impressive simulation for that time frame
@eggsscrambled If webgl isn't working, just make a windows build... porting after release is within the rules
Borland Turbo C++. those were the days...
@jk5000 @ha7oes @naplz thanks for your comments :)
Very cute graphics and sounds, difficulty needs a little bit of tweaking. I liked the piano music :)
Very nice concept :) Sounds were also nice
Hacker cat
Reminds me of quake 3 defrag. The menu system is cool. Nice project!
Seems very polished :)
This feels very polished. Very nice project!
@melon-spirit thank you for testing and commenting - I tried adjusting the default sensitivity maybe that helps
@jk5000 @polygraph-polypraphovich thank you for testing
SO MANY DUCKS
Well done. Nice cyberpunky mood. Liked it
oh boy
Those sounds are killing me :) also ++ for camera shake
@richjbaron @xiyuan hi sorry about the not working link. Itch seemed to have some server issues yesterday. It works now
@andrian I am sorry you are having trouble. The first time the game loads the progress bar is stuck for a long time in the same position, but it will eventually start playing. I also uploaded a working windows version now, so you should be able to download and play it.
The sound design is very funny
Quite stressful but very nice concept
Clever game design :)
This one has a great mood and story. thank you
Very cute little alien :)
This was beautiful. Thank you
Love the art style and concept
Love the music. Very nice idea for a game!
The pixel art and animations were really nice :)
I liked the atmosphere thank you. Nice one for first time doing a point and click
I like little simulated computers like that, its always fun to explore.
very nice sound design and atmosphere.
The hand drawn images look very nice :) much better than AI stuff can ever be
cute robot guy
Very nice first entry. Reminds me of "the typing of the dead" back in the day
pretty big level with many different elements for a jam. tense atmosphere
Very polished entry, and nice learning curve
i dont have hands
Nice concept. It fits the theme very well. I found it very difficult to understand which messages to pick and when she is doing normal things.
cute game
nice concept. making a shooter in that amount of time is not easy
Very nice for a first jam entry
Platforming was kinda hard for me. I liked the athmosphere and the visuals
i am toothfairy
very nice. has a zachtronics vibe
Like the absurdist vibe
nicely done. the dials work very well.
