@lusternite Sorry if it was too loud for you, did it seem balanced as a whole? If I were to continue developing this there would be sound options of course.
@spacedoubt Thanks for the feedback! You make valid points that I can agree with. Thanks for playing!
Thanks so much for all the positive comments everyone!
If you are getting stuck at the oxygen level here is a small tutorial: you must shut the door behind you then go ahead and close the next, then go back and open the last door, and keep repeating that.
Thanks for all the new comments. I am reading all of them closely and taking all feedback into consideration.
Really enjoyed this! I agree there could be smaller objectives and thought some of the game play was too much of min/maxing without consequences but overall it was really great.
One of the best entries I've played! Excited to see a full version. Quality on all fronts.
Controls were definitely pretty misleading. The idea and implementation were very cool. Not sure what the lose condition was.
I thought the gameplay was pretty lackluster, but the perspective was very interesting. Logo and music were great too!
This game is really cute. I think some objectives would be good, an option to speed up time, and unlocks would go a long way in addition to the other suggestions, but for the time put in, this is an excellent result! It felt pretty empty without music or more sound effects either, even a couple jingles or a pixel santa flying by would go a long way!
Cool idea! Got a memory leak error and the game froze.
Pretty cool! I like the use of light as a mechanic. I think it could be clearer what the escape was, I opened it but wasn't sure where to go after, eventually figure it out though.
Thanks for all the comments! They're really helpfull! The UI definitely has quite a few problems and would be a priority if we took it a step further!
There is an end game - to upgrade the science center to level 6. Threats and more are definitly something we would want to implement in a full version.
@Zotapianola the sounds were actually made during the jam with BFXR by my partner. There should be bgm as well, but it doesn't always load. Thanks for playing and the feedback!
The background low-polygonal art here is really welly done! The music quite nice too. The gameplay felt a little lacking and the character animations also felt a little bit off. Platforming can be an especially hard genre because it's so overdone, so I like to approach it by asking myself what I can do differently!
This seemed to be an interesting game, but I couldn't really figure out how to play or what the core mechanics were. Unfortunately by having gamepad only controls I think you are unlikely to get a lot of feedback. I really enjoyed the music and graphics which felt authentic but the buttons didn't seem to do anything and the resolution was also rather hard to play in.
This was a fun game! However the audio was WAYYY to loud overall, so warning to people about to play it. I really enjoyed all the different weapons. Some gameplay feedback:
- I wish the smaller room would just block me off instead of instant killing me on the wall. - Some hit cooldown would be nice, You could instant die if a group of guys hit you. - A few more graphics would be nice as well.
I'm interested in what the game was made in, well done!
@justin-c 1500 is great for the second attempt! Definitely would have liked to increase the scare crows over time but ran out of time. Thanks for playing!
@derek-volker Yes. We wondered a bit if people would expect to play the scarecrow, could be a fun sequel!
....Is that pretzel jesus? Like the pixel art! Gameplay was a bit stale / spammy but I liked the enemy variety. Well done!
This is my favorite entry I've played yet. Was very relaxing and I liked the mechanics. However, on the level that takes you outside for the side view, I decided to explore. I found some more trees way out and tried to harvest the fruit which lead to crash (floating point error I think) :( Will give it another go later. Really well done!
This was a really interesting take on the theme. I like the absurdist humor a lot, I laughed at the monoliths. Controls are rather tricky, but true enough to space physics.
Hey there, looks like you didn't provide a compiled version of the game. Would definitely recommend to link to a build if you'd like any ratings!
Liminal AF. Needs some gameplay feedback but interesting idea.
Very short, but pretty funny. Dark take on the theme!
Wow! This is great for a solo jam project! Only think I would've like to see was more audio, and running score during game. Sometimes the tool were hard to pickup in corners as well.
This was a fun little game! I liked the mechanics of growing new towers and having to choose between the tradeoffs of a higher tier tower or more. I was impressed with the art quality and variety of levels.
Some things I would have like to see: - Tier numbers over the plants so I could tell when they are ready to harvest - More sound effects - The ability to pause the game to adjust towers, or speed up or slow down the wave - It's unclear why the banna tower doesn't generate seeds, but it's unexpected - Second level seemed easier than the first, so I would reorder them - On the final level, some enemies would not follow the path which was unexpected.
Overall though there is really a lot of content here for a weekend game jam. Also was surprised and enjoyed the boss wave! Well done!
Great artwork and style! Great use of theme. The building harvesting is hilarious. I played 5 days (then had a black screen) but did not get any upgrade points, even though I collected hundreds of people so unfortunately was not able to try that part.
Lol @ the instructions
Looks like I can't rate this. Did you forget to submit? :(
