At this time I didn't understand the game, and how to win a round and the strategy to lose the less HP

At this time I didn't understand the game, and how to win a round and the strategy to lose the less HP
Innovative concept, very good Audio, I really appreciate the tutorial Good Game
Really good Graphics. No music, I feel sad for clients, only the sound of glass. Hard to play for me. I don't have understand how to win yet. Innovative for sure, good potential. This Pub need more ambience :)
Fun to play, nice Graphics, so sad you don't have sounds
Good music and atmosphere. I had to lower the resolution in order to play the game because the game was too slow on my computer. Cool graphics for Day/Night cycle. Your music and global atmosphere made me think about blade runner. A replay button will be appreciate after the game over
I never had fun playing Dwarf Fortress, but had fun playing your game. Maybe I spend 1 hour playing it and still want to play it later. This will be even better with sounds maybeElveFortress.PNG
I can't see the black dot in a black background so I was unable to enjoy the game
Need some music. Hope we can't get stuck in a road in a future version, if we can go to the beginning of the screen if we go out of the screen (like PacMan). Fun Game and well made graphics
That was a neat game ! kqsyfgyoqygfiè"ç_yghzglhglkjs imu_oup'éà hmioghro
Great game. Could you please make a AZER QSDF version for AZERTY keyboard. (tips for user like me you can use shift+alt in windows10 to switch). Please can you add some Japanese traditional music like here https://www.jamendo.com/playlist/186391/traditional-japanese (RoyaltyFree)
Well done, I had fun collecting 64 glasses for the cause, it was a little hard to reach the exit back. Black text on black glasses are hard to read in the menu but it's maybe a good training for the cause. Sad you don't have any sound or music.
Good music but the loop is a little too short. Enjoyable game. Maybe too difficult for me I am stuck at round 4/6 for me
One of the more entertaining games I played in the LD40 so Far. Really good Audio. Fine Graphics. Even a story, humor and procedurally generated levels. Well done.
I had some issue closing the game too on Windows 7 64bits can't see quit button at the end. No a big problem since I can exit with some ctrl+alt+del trick. Maybe an Esc button exit the game could solve this easily
Wich tools have you used ? (Music, graphic, coding)
Lot of levels hard playability. The ship is hard to maneuver. No music. Only one sound when it. Clean graphics. Are the level procedurally generated ? unlimited number of level here ?
Liked the music and sounds effect. Seems too hard for me I can't reach level2
You can really speed the things up when you use your car like an Airplane :) I am really hurt to know that I am a bad driver. I manage to win round1 but didn't see where to go on round 2
Graphics are impressive, it's really sad you don't have sounds and music. Destruction effects are impressive too. Tutorial, text in level well made too
Controlling the ship is difficult but similar to the "Asteroid" genre. Music sounds a little boring to me, maybe relaxing for other. Explosions would be a nice addition. Radar very useful but hard to see and it take me a little time to figure out there is a radar. Laser seems useless compared to the power of missiles. Could be fun if you like "Asteroid" games like controll.
At this point (beta 7H before Jam end) : Good music and graphics. Some fun and humor. I really had to hardly defend the bedroom this seems to be the most strategic place. I reach the score of 15 638 800
The score system seems to have changed in the final version. I only reach 2800. Is it possible to Win the game ? (end screen you can read "you loose")
You can reach 10 guns in mode infinite @oskardevelopment
The game is mostly designed for desktop. Game area is 1280x720px. Please use full screen mode if you play with your Browser
@jackisaacs the game as an infinite mode just choose it in Option. You also have mode 500 & 1000 if you don't want to spend too much time. (infinite could take you a lot of time :) )
@rolle OK button mean go back to the Main menu -> I have to fix that. "Congratulation" mean a better way to say "You Win" for me. Maybe it's not accurate or inappropriate, I am French. If I remember in Need for speed 2 they say " Congratulation you won the Race". The score is how many enemies ship you have killed and how many time you survived (especially important in infinite mode) and how many HP you have left (especially in mode 100 500 1000) it will maybe better if I wrote a grade A,B,C,D,E,F or X like expert :) For holding the mouse-button I maybe think I could have done better alternative like first click active autofire and second click stop autofire. Please tell me what you think
@sawtan thanks for the ideas, if I had more time I would definitely had enemy variations with laser and shield system. In this version the only replay value is to try to survive longuer with mode [500],[1000] and [infinite] you can reach 10 guns too, the more guns you have the less accurate they are.
@schizoid2k thanks for your feedback and ideas. I am actually continuing the development
@rplnt thanks for pointing that, the bug is now corrected for the html5 version https://gregoweb.github.io/Play_Save_Starship_R2D48/
Innovative concept. I enjoyed the music theme too. The Game Over sound traumatized me. Enjoyable procedural level generation
Maybe I didn't understand the game. I take all the cards that I can see. Then I use the phone. Then I try to see what happens when you get on "Harry's square", since nothing happen I try to touch other white square, nothing happens.
Gargoyl looks too hard for me. Good game anyway well polished for sure. Interesting concept, good sound, music and graphics.
I didn't figure out how to replay after game over. I just reload browser page. Music is repetitive and this one is not my taste, maybe music off option could be usefull. Maybe the game is too difficult for me,! I didn't kill the first Pirate ship. You've story and dialogs here it's good point. [SkyCorsair.JPG](///raw/c1d/c/z/b57c.jpg)
Good complete game overall, I had some difficulty to figure out how to drive the truck, just jump over driver seat and press down arrow. Only arrow X and Z(w) are usefull. Nice sound track
Sad that you don't have sounds. Good playability for "Asteroid" Aficionados
Wow we have a really good innovative concept here. Nice graphics, music and global atmosphere. Party at home Yeah ! (wait what ? my home ?) Some improvement wanted - I only find 1 interaction possible turning the light On/Off, I want more - Only 3 rounds, I want more
Please I want more Party !
Graphism are ok, I suggest adding some explosions with explosion generator and adding a background (with some shining stars). The music really entertain me. At first the games seems complex to me but after playing it, I quickly understood all the mechanics. 1. You can shoot some green Toxin and have points 2. Wow you can grab some crystal 3. Ok lets build those 4 moons (this is challenging for me) 4. What it's not over ? you have to collect cores Too hard for me at this point. The game is interesting and challenging and have some variety with this 4 diferents gameplay
I wanna eat them all !
Impressive 72H Game. Control need some adaptation time for me. Really like Weapon2 with turret view to kill enemies right behind your ship. Missile usefull too when the enemy is too hard to shoot. Front laser efficient too for first enemy type
It works. This game would be better with sounds and music. Innovative concept here
First version of the player seems too fast for me. I had the feeling it was uncontrollable. I reach first boss. Good Music and sounds. How do you make the voices ? They sounds good, even if I had some difficulty to understand "TRANSFORMATION"
Really good Music and audio overall. I didn't manage to kill the Boss.
Interesting graphics and audio. Graphics remind me Theme Park. The music is very relaxing, maybe to counter clients stress. I was a little bored playing the game, maybe you can find some improvement in making banking job a little funnier ? Maybe with insane client and possibility to call guard or maybe robbery. Overall Good job
Nice Graphics and audio, but I didn't understand memory mechanics
Music is repetitive but not too annoying. Enjoyable game-play. Theme well exploited
Really promising and impressive for a game jam. Lack of fun for me because it's really hard to shot enemies and I can't survive enough to make good profits and buy upgrades. I'm interested for new releases
Amazing, lot of fun for me
Fun little game. Presentation voice made me laughed.
Nice Twist, I didn't kill the boss at this time, I have to retry. Your game need a music for sure. Enemies are hard to shot but I didn't try missiles yet.
Good Graphics, very nice menu. Good Tutorial. Leaderboard push me to understand how not to die too adged. Quiet boring after finding and applying a win strategy. Really well polished game, high level of completion here. GG
Will definitely be better with some Laser Rays and Xplosions. Some times gravity seems little weird I was flying without jumping. Enemies proximity detector remind me Alien / Aliens VS Predator games. Good complete game overall. I manage to buy the fuel
I enjoyed the background too
I can't play your game maybe it's because of my screen resolution 1366x768.TempleAttack.PNG
I didn't see any sacrifice in my abilities... Maybe I wasn't using these abilities, or didn't required them. Add some graphics animations and a boss to improve the game. Good Guns design
I reached the end after reading comments and dying at least 1 time :) Some bugs sometimes with objectives that doesn't display, or don't change even if completed. Good game I am impressed.
Really good little game, refreshing and well executed. The music is really nice, the game is simple and challenging. Well done !
Good musics
Hard to find the limit between land and sky. I am not familiarized with green sky yet. You can maybe spice up the game with more and more enemies at the same time and change the speed of enemies after some times. I reach score 100 and then quit the game. You maybe have bug when enemies reach the castle they not always kill some of you life. This game maybe fun with more polish, don't give up
The farmers can't kill me. I try not to move to see what happens but nothing... Nice apple I think it's the first time in my life that I play as an apple
Cute Graphics, this game really needs more sounds. Didn't know if the game has Ending. I get Outside, at the clinic, at home, at jail. Interesting game
I finished the game without big challenges. Maze Graphics could be better with little time for sure. I really like the "blobs" graphics, animations and burp sounds. I didn't figure I can shot at the first run. Continue the good job.
Night was too dark for me so I slept during night. I Heard the wolf sometimes but didn't manage to be eaten. Is there really a wolf or the water is the only risk for your life of a sheep. Nice atmosphere.
My index is now muscular and exhausted. I had fun playing your game.
Sad you didn't have time to had some sounds. Good little strategy game anyway GG
Cool little craft game. Lot of craft and exploration possibilities for a 3 days games. I liked the minimalist flowers. Some humours, I liked the metal of honour joke
I land on second planet after 80 days. Nice game
Couldn't play it on my laptop too
Controls are difficult to grasp. I was a little frustrated by the gameplay because of controls. I was impressed by the small size of the application 2 371ko. This game would be better with sounds.
I didn't get any sound too and I needed time to realize jumping was possible over certain conditions.
Well done ! The game really looks polished. Good story telling too. I don't know if we can escape in the current version. I find the secret story but I didn't find a way to escape my destiny
Interesting concept, the game need lot of polishing. Like to see improved version of this entry
Inspiring
Nice audio, nice idea. Spotligth enjoyable and feeling at the party. I didn't understand how to use the vending machine or bring toilet paper, so I just stay at the music pushing down the E button and guess what I win. I try to click the vending machine or push E near the vending machine. Maybe someone could explain how to use the vending machine or bring toilet paper. Anyway cool idea, audio, and this world need more party.
Nice audio, the game made me laught. The game is really challenging for me I only reach 18. Story is impressive :) at less you've create a story and it made me laught, that's a good point. Nice first entry. I hope you will make some progress for the graphics for your next entry
Excellent game I really have fun playing it 1 hour to defeat the Boss.
First unoficial "Groundhog day" game I play. That's cool. No many things to do in town. No cars or danger that could cost your life (restart the loop). I really wanted to trie lot of things if I live a day forever. Nice graphics. Cool Idea. Need some fun.
Fun game. Simple and well executed.
Good game I enjoyed playing it and I will replay it. Good game mechanics, really fun to play. The music and audio could be improved (some DingDing, und "Ja mein Kapitan" maybe) some more instrument and less repetitive musique, tell me if you need help for audio in after LD48 release). Well done
I managed to be invincible one time don't know why the enemies ship couldn't hurt me anymore.
Good funny refreshing and unexpected story. You made me smile. Didn't reach the end. Game over and sounds missing.
Thanks for your comment @noobhereo. You are right animations would certainly improve the immersion of the players, I have to work on this. Only 3 planet type because lack of time only 48H is really short for a family guy. I tried to balance with some procedural generation random stars position, random rotation on 2 planetes type, random terrain generation for Mars like planet. Take a look on my others game at https://r2d48.itch.io/ Thanks for playing
@runuchok You don't what kind of creature you'll found in deep space. Lack of time, it's a shame I wanted more interaction on planets too. I have to improve that on futures release
@yulotomorrow SPOILER-ALERT: planet status generation is random and evolve at next travel the difficulty levelup you can look at lines 242-245 of source code https://github.com/gregoweb/Dokiss-Space-Explorers/blob/main/game/script.rpy So for best results with interactions you have to scan the planet first and then choose the interaction where you have the better skills (in captain's logs). You are free to choose to play peacefully or as a psychopath
@pijamar I'm happy my game made you laughed. Impact on decisions depend on planet status and your skills you can look the formula if you wish at line 242-245 of source code https://github.com/gregoweb/Dokiss-Space-Explorers/blob/main/game/script.rpy I have no merit for The complex menu and options screen because it's relative to the engine Ren'py https://www.renpy.org/ @v0idpointer it's the same engine as Doki Doki lit. club.
@secretjuice Thank you so much for your video. You failed at mining because you have to mine in the first planets to level up your mining level. The difficulty increase at every jump. The game isn't very balanced at this time. Well done for the playing and recording I think I never done so much jump during my tests.
Nice tutorial
Unexpected original game, I decide to test it because of the surprising concept. Nice arts and artistic direction. Keep the good work going
I didn't manage to get out of the beach. Fun bullet hell done in 48H well done, special compliment for audio tracks.
I like your Night & Day Cycle. I was saved by an Ocelot once when he take the machete so i can get out freely but the next time I get stuck and need to wait for the night to be devoured by night creatures
Graphics and animation pretty well done. The rest of the prototype seems unfinished.
Why did you opt-out humour and mood ? The game mechanics made laugh and a little frustrated at the same time. Graphics looks like and general esthetic looks like Pro Well done.
It worked even if I didn't manage to reach Uranus. Can't read the precious text for technical ballistic information on the left of mission screen. Full screen mode would have been appreciated. Congratulation for the mood
I like animation on Tittle with the birds songs. Interesting graphics and animations and artistic direction . Is that dungeon's sound the sound of your cat ? You had some good ideas for sounds, more sounds will be appreciated. The labyrinth (maze) is always the same (SPOILER ALERT exit always on u. l..t c.rn.r). Interesting prototype well done
I reach level 9. I didn't understand all item and/or how to spend them. Could be indicated in Help for next release. Nice game good storytelling for starting animation and game over screen.
GG, well executed and interesting RTS, first time I test a RTS in Ludum Dare. I feel like I was watching some starshiptrooper film. I had to retry coding RTS.
I think it will be easier if you just have to click command block instead of have to drag n drop. Nice graphics and very well polished game for a 48H one person game. Good Job
Impressive graphics you are really good at pixel art. You have some really cool and ambitious mechanics like repairing your ship teleport in other ships, combat inside ships, stealing ships. I was frustrated by losing with the destruction of the universe on the left. I wish I could powerup my ship (speed, laser, shields). Your game is in need of some music tracks. Well done it's impressive for only 1 person in 48H
You've the deepest dialog I have seen in a game, you're at the level of "Psycho Mantis". Nice music Nice artistic direction. Some sound effects will be appreciated. Really refreshing idea for the interpretation of the theme. Well done thanks for your game.
2362km I entered the core. I had fun collecting bonus. A background music will be appreciated in next version. I was a little confuse by the inertia of the ship, you can't avoid all bullets, but it's compensated by the shield you find on your way.
Well done, it's really refreshing. Really good idea to rely only on emoticon for conversation, so you don't have any langage barrier in your game.
What can be improved : - Sounds : you can add sounds for click in the menu, jump, coin collection, shots... You can use sfxr to generate sounds quickly in during a Jam - Only one music declined with variation in differents mini-games, it maintain coherence in the all game but with this short loop of 10s it's too much repetition for my taste and it create a boring feeling - For the running game with the Zombi I have a small bug on my desktop I can only see the head off the zombi some part of the asset is out of the screen - arrow keys doesn't work in the game of coin collection with the pumpkin
What works : - Coherence of your universe through the different mini-games - The main menu (it will be better if the games were integrated in the console screen to break the 4 wall) - Polished graphics
Tips you can use sfxr and beepbox to make audio part in a hurry
Really good game. Excellent Music, Excellent SFX. Innovative Game. Good graphics. Well done ! I think I will reply this game a lot
@rongon, at first the idea come because my bed as a limited space when I returned to my bed during friday night. So the player is free to play the game as it is his bedroom managment or as a dormitory manager or hotel manager. It's up to the player mind. The graphics are of the bedroom are differents if you play kinky you have only 1 big bed and if you play kind you have lot of beds.
@mozokevgen the acceptance or rejection depend on your stats if yours stats are bigger or equal the guest accept your invite. To have better stats go to the different place. If you don't have enought beds or if your bed is too small they refuse your invite too
I really enjoyed your game will replay it.
Music is cool. but I didn't hear any sfx you can use SFXR to make sfx in a hurry. We clearly see lack of time you have a small syntax error on the menu LD45 -> LD54.
Funny slimes, try sfxr and beepbox to make some sounds in hurry next time
Thanks for this Mech's game. I encountered a bug once : the mech can't jump anymore. Didn't figure how to quit. Good theme interpretation nice game
GG this game remind me that I have to mow the lawn :) Good level design the level progression introduce new mechanics, so a tutorial is not necessary from my point of view. It take me some time to figure out I have to click on 1 to start level 1. I didn't figure out how to go on the red square at level 20.
Well done, Good game.
too difficult for me. I think your game can have a great potential with a better balance of the difficulty. Maybe it's only a problem with velocity of player ship and bullets. Great MOOD
It take me a little time to figure out what I can pick and what I have to avoid. Good level's aesthetic, Good player design. Good music and sound. Don't like green on purple personnaly for the menu but colors choices remind personnal.
Innovative game that changes from alien's shooter. GG
Your entry has lot of humor, I'm really sad I can't rate it. The explosion sound and graphic and the stay at the saloon concept made me laught and have a good time. On the bad part the music didn't work for me.
Reparing the engine was fun. didn't figure out how to get in cargo taking "gordon freeman" equipment.
I didn't find the key. I didn't figure out how to use my Fist for the last stand. Nice game anymay. Good music. Good mood and sneaking gameplay vibes.
GG
Nice sounds and graphics
@gilborn Ren'Py has Impressing Menu out of the box. If you have any Interactiv Novels project consider using Ren'Py.
