such a lovely little arcadey puzzle feel and of everything decently one of those easy to get into but hard to master kinda games, well done geting a game to feel this neat is a real feat. you should be proud. <3
Okay... so ill keep it short its one of my favorite games in this jam so far, everything feels tight and well controled and almost all mistakes are due to my own stupidity and/or pressing the wrong buttons. Ill love to see a sort of mobile version of this little gem it feels perfect for on the go gameplay.
This games kinda quite fun and well done for useing some of the real names of the processes cells use (at least i believe that there are right). biggest problems is that some things just feel a bit off like sometimes i click and it doesnt drop down a unit and sometimes the cells can shoot though each-other. though biggest problem has to come from the fact its kinda really easy and i only died the first time due to not knowing the controls (but i soon worked it out). in short its a nice highly UNpolished game, good job handing in anything though this jam was quite hard (it was my first time). :p
Also i would recommend working on your artwork, none of the assets felt like they fit together at all.
This game is so simplistic yet so much fun, i bet if you had a bit more time to get a scoring system and tutorial down this game would be true amazing. well done on makeing us all happy. :3
God words cant describe how cute/fun this little game is.
I WANT ALL THE DUCKYS. :duck: :baby_chick: :baby_chick: :baby_chick: :hatched_chick: :hatching_chick:
Aww Gil is so CUTE!
Also this game is bloody amazeing could do with a bit more depth and its kinda quite buggy but the comsept is so cute and fun i couldnt stop my self from playing a lot, though i feel bad for Gril... Grils a good fishy. :(
Its fun but games like this are a pain to make in jam time due to the lack of playtesing and rebalanceing needed to make it a truely fun experience. overall good work.
God this game is so CUTE! I could just hug all the assets. and its all topped off with what is actually quite a fun little game.
Not terible but to be honest the games kinda a buggy mess at this point, i dont feel like i have much control over anything and everything feels, well off...
Wow the look and feel of this game is just so pritty. <3 love this little gem. <3
the art and everything is good gameplays good but my biggist probblem is the backgrounds, they kinda make the whole game feel very flat and has got a few smaller technical probblems when it comes to twitchy colisions and i think it could really do with just a small drop more of player feeedback overall ist not half bad.
Very Neat Music and sound design, just feel like it could do with a tad more player feedback, try makeing it so it feels like you are truely in control over the game, right now it kinda feels like sound is playing over the gameplay not the and its not directly influinceing eachother (yes i know its quite a hard thing to get right).
over all this game is truely a fun little gem you should be proud.
Its a good take on a classic game only probblem is it kinda feels quite simplistic everything kinda simplistic and lacks depth. also could do with a good tutorial at the start of the game.
With a bit more polish and a fresh coat of paint this could be a pritty fun little arcadey maze game. good job.
if i could some up my review in a 2 emoticons ill say this :fox: :heart: this game is so cute, and love the typeface you used on the logo and the cute little foxy guy the color pallet is so smooth and my only complaint would be it could do with a good Tutorial. that said i cant stop looking at how shiny it looks. <3 :3
looking at the graphics and the idea of this game i thought that it was going to be really really bad... but after a bit of time with it it really grown on me, geting a score of 112 before finishing. biggist probblem is a mix of the graphics and sounds really, everything feels very much unpolished also a masive probblem is the fact you have to wait for dialog to finish before starting a game and wait for it after you died, it should have been a lot quicker. overall it was very much a fun little hidden gem.
For a first jam game this isn't half bad, we all start somewhere and though this game has its floors and its quite unpolished i got a surprising amount of enjoyment out of it, well done. :3
What a cute little game, i dont really know what to say for a jam game you likely picked one of the hardist types of games to make and you pulled it off pritty well. hay its rough around the edges but for a jam game its bloody brilliant. well done to all involved.
@nogam thanks so much, its one of the few games of mine I'm actually almost proud of.
@billnotic oh.... I dont know why i keep typing LD36... sorry that was super dumb of me (i dont think i typed it right anywhere)... anyways thanks for your kind words. :3
@megaqueijo thanks i think like 99% of the jam i was polishing, i really wish i got more content into it, but as the description said i was practicing polishing my artwork, game-play and animation hoping to do a more commercial game soon. :3
@damian1ilin Thanks! and ill be sure to check it out. <3
@blakegamedev the original doodles (i do doodles instead of design docs dont judge me :P) showed the UFO haveing free movement, based on my older jam game SnowDropRock (on my itch.io page if you want to try it out) with a nice screen scrolling area and much larger worlds and multiple Limes (the little creatures your saving), but it proved quite early on that i was biting off more than i could chew so i made it all one screen, thats why the levels are so easy (still unsure if thats a good or bad thing), the pause and count down was cut quite late. ill likely add that back in to an after jam build if I get around too it.
Oh thank you so so much for pointing that out @angelo-saez Level 8, 9 and 11 softlocks the game, I'm hoping to be able to fix this ASAP but as of right now i cant work out what is creating this massive error, ill post a bug fixed version (under the rules critical bugs like this I can fix as long as I don't add any content).
@random-storykeeper thanks for the names of those games, i dont think i really played any of them. also sorry about the music restarting, im unsure what exactly triggers a restart but its 100% not intended to restart. and that probblem with putting a tile above the dotted line is something i never encountered before, that said the line was only added like an hour and a half before then end of the jam (its something i for sure am going to look into).
the thing with mouse controls is that i think i accidentally inverted it at some point so try swiping the opiset direction than the way you intend to go. and when clicking the mouse it would only select the selected option (the one thats highlighted), not sure if it helps or not overall the mouse control on the menus are pretty poorly programmed in my opinion.
Also I'm still trying to work out what triggers those soft-locks, so far I'm still confused on what is triggering it.
UPDATE EVERYONE, the error when Playing some levels has been fixed, download the latest version for a bug free build of BoxOfLimes!
hay @derek-volker i just uploaded the patch fixing that error you just missed it, re-download it from itch.io and it should be 100% working as intended.
Ah, @euler-moises just found that error, ill be posting a patch to the game though that said you wouldnt be missing much, its just the end screen, ill post a critical fix fixing the crash. thanks for pointing it out.
Update @euler-moises the latest version has the bug fixed, redownload it from itch.io if you want to see the end screen (save data should copy over perfectly fine as well). :3 https://reddashgames.itch.io/box-of-limes-ld46
@herman-chau there is a speedup button as said on the page its Space.and there is controls for doing backing up inputs but that just made it nearly uncontrollable and feel very laggy and ruined the whole feel of the game.
First Morning was designed to have that pit so you had space to learn the controls and place a few blocks down as the "pit" keeps the player in one place and makeing it easy to get the Lime out of the hole as well, without it it was easy to die right away, only resion why the Lime doesnt start in the pit was to show how the creature moved around the world you can see a very simmler level at the end of the game (forgot what i called it) without the pit and its likely the 3rd hardist in the game.
and First Morning's background tutorial board thing was made last second didn't get time to do the graphics for that. though i expected people to really read the games instructions on the page but from the looks nobody reads them, even though a lot of other games here dont have any tutorial in game and its all on the page something i really dont get.
@thecritterscove I used Z due to it being the common Tetris rotation button, i never-seen any game use R for rotation R is restart due to it being far far away from all other buttons so you cant hit it by mistake.
@camden-obertop I used GameMakerStudio2 if you want to know. :3
and i noticed for my mouse calculations i didn't keep in count the resizable window, sorry about that.
@jeremyfa is the problem that your using Linux or Mac? if so try Wine, it works perfectly with this game.
Thanks @joe40001 and I'll love to see a video of your stream. Anyways dont give up the game under all the art and prittyness was made in like 15-30 minits just some basic tile movement (move 8 tiles every time) then the graphic lerps from one point to another then just adding some polish to the game. under all the polish its a really simple basic game so dont give up!
Wow this might be the prittyist and most vibrant game I've seen. biggest problem is that everything seems very... well samey. not too much verasion but hay its a jam game i dont expect too much, but what you did do was very fun indeed. :3
also i really would recommend adding some images to this page, its a tad bland, should draw more people to your little game.
Woo not half bad my first one was 3319, unsure if thats good or not but hay~ :P
Overall a good game, though very unsure about how things are scored,like had a square tile and by chance got almost all the board covered but it seems it counted just the same as one rune, so spent time getting what i thought was counted as combos but seems they was doing nothing, and as it shows such an arangement (two patterns overlapping) on the tutorial i must have assumed wrong.
Also the main difuty was from the speed tiles are filing up not the baddys at the start when it was slower i had like 34 little fellas but very quickly dropped when things was too quick.
Overall a lovely game!
