@hitchh1k3r nice job
@cocapasteque and team great concept and really cool game :D well done!
Hi @rebecca-harrison you put me playing songs. Nice trick setting people to play a specific giving musical scale. Well done :)
@bejaro and all I enjoyed your game, really think it's a different concept. Maybe you should start further from the center and maybe have a hardcore level with controls more physics like - now looks too arcade, although that is fine for several players. You should continue the game :)
@judgezedd I had fun with your game :D great job :)
@toccio94 really enjoyable game :) I like how you teach the player the different mechanics. The graphics and sound effects are great :D. Maybe some mini music. The character on the background was creepy giving you the immersiveness of the game. Not sure about the theme: of course a level you are in a loop, but maybe you could explore more the loop idea eventually for some levels. ahhh and more levels :D... Nevertheless great JAM and thank you for your game :)
@wrimo I like the post-apocalyptic mood on the game, only found a survivor :D and lost not long after :) the car is kind of difficult to master and maybe the lanes should be a little bit big. Although I enjoyed the game :) good work!
@marc-antoine-girard and all thank you for this experience :) really liked the game!
@weirdybeardyman very naive and enjoyable game :) not sure how to get more RCS. Maybe extras for this game would be possible to get space debris and create Reaction wheels :D and solar sails... Really enjoy the game :)
Hi @javasaurus Nice and fun game :D with decent power ups. Kind of out of the theme eventually. For a Compo it was a great work :O Well done :)
Lack music :D but I really liked the fast pace... Infinite Spiders :D Maybe you need to add stuff to catch like powerups, that way you motivate the player to move from a location :) Nice game @gibss :)
@gamedevkng you might not publish your game or maybe it's private, the link went to a 404 :S
You game is really Hell, paper hell :O nice job :D
@tolmera I tried to publish a web, but it didn't work well. Later I will try to export to a Mac. Sry...
@endurion did you try to create a story that matches at least 1 keyword and bias of the profile? :) The idea is to use what people already believes and change only a bit :D...
@vinzbad Well done :D you put them on feedback loops :D everyone now believes on aliens or aliens itself :D
@pekuja it is true. To be honest this LD is my first one and my first plan was to go for the JAM. I know the game needs much more :). For now you only a random objective on the top left. The idea was to have scenarios. I was thinking about having 2 resources: money and time. In my mind: writing stories takes time and they have strength. If you have more and better writers, the story gets more strength and you need money to get more writers. The stories can be reused but every time you use them, the strength gets lower. This version is the MVP :D
@evileptic :O found the bug :O I think it was a last change before submit that didn't test :O. Going to add a new version without it :S new version: https://rgilpt.itch.io/inyourfaceabookafterld47
@geegaz did you try to give a story with at least one similar keyword and bias (positive, neutral, negative)? The idea is to change their opinions "slowly" :)
One question? How do you give Karma feedback? :S
Thank you @vinzbad here some Karma :D
Did a test with 1 beta tester :D and I have a big flaw. No one comprehends my game :(, need to do better next time :(.
Going to add in next version :S but here are some instructions:
1. The objective is on the top left
first.png
2. These are some successful profiles
second.png
3. To change the profile beliefs, you should create a convincing story. In this case I am selecting the guns keywords and give a negative bias to match 1 of the believes. The more the matches the higher is the score for the story for a particular profile
third.png
4. Let's see the result
forth.png
5. Let's try the same story
fifth.png
SUCCESS!!
Tip 1. The story is stronger if it comes from a friend (connection) Tip 2. You could match 2 of the keywords and send an inverse bias for the one that you want to change
The objective is "educate" all the people with less fake stories :) you can see how many stories left of the button Create News.
@m8rix I already solved that bug you can download a version here: https://rgilpt.itch.io/inyourfaceabookafterld47
Thank you for the feedback!
@123seven3 I need to improve the instructions next time :)
@leggy I did one build with linux and solved a silly bug you have here: https://rgilpt.itch.io/inyourfaceabookafterld47
@skvader-418 this was my first LD :) and this was a UX failure :D
I have some extra instructions here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/47/inyourfaceabook/inyourfaceabook-instructions-lacking-in-the-main-game
But the idea is to have scenarios and with simple scenarios I wanted to teach how to play the game... :S rookie failures :)
@Wrimo "crashes 3 times" that was a silly bug :) solved here: https://rgilpt.itch.io/inyourfaceabookafterld47
As I said to @skvader-418, I will try to make scenarios as simple tutorials. 20 profiles and a lot of keywords is too much for a starter player :). Thank you very much for the feedback :)
@judgezedd thank you for the feedback :) Underneath it has a belief simulator invented for this :D it might need some science help (social engineering people) to improve the algorithm :)
@mrhthepie thank you for the feedback :) It was my first time I tried to Ludum Dare and went for Compo. I was really tired when I finished the logic of the game :) and only figure it out that the game needs progression tutorial :D. By itself it is very complex game. The bug it is solved here by the way: https://rgilpt.itch.io/inyourfaceabookafterld47
Thank you :)
@itskdog thank you :)
@sop-the-turtle thank you :). I already understood that :D I need scenarios to give the player the feel of the progression. When I finish the profile model I was very tired and had 1 more hour to finish the Compo. It was a mistake :D Thank you :)
@cursedsoldier it's true :) the game needs a tutorial :D was too tired to do that in the compo :D in my defense it was my first LD :) thank you very much for the feedback :)
@lakrits I created a new version (after compo) if you have time can you try that version? Thank you in advanced!
thanks @helekopeter, I did a version to solve a bug, here: https://rgilpt.itch.io/inyourfaceabookafterld47 that solves a bug :S try that one :) thank you for the feedback :)
Thank you @Curly :)
@eugenik Thank you for the feedback :)
@toccio94 Thank you for the feedback :) I did a version post combo with some helping references :) To be honest I didn't check if there is contradictions :D :D :D I am going to add to my list of todos...
@ubershmekel Really thank you for the detailed feedback. I am improving the animations while the news are spreading through the network. Changing animations is a great idea (when you are successful on changing their beliefs) and I might use your suggestions. I have a lot of UX and UI problems and I am going to improve a win condition - almost non existent for now - and that way I can make scenarios starting with less profiles... Again thank you for the feedback :)
@layne-stokes Thank you :) I am going to make some scenarios and the first ones are going to work as a tutorial. I know that lacks because after the submission, I tested with a beta tester and it was a huge failure :D Thank you :)
@spacey3d really thank you for your feedback :) I tried not to include political stuff, religious and gender stuff. I wasn't successful :D but I might change the symbols (I call it keywords). The zoom I am going to add. Haven't tested the limits of the game, but with 100 profiles it might be impossible to play without zoom :X Now I am working on the Model itself (how to change or not the beliefs of the profiles). Well there is a lot of things that I need to add :S... but thank you very much :)
@mrjoshuamclean Simple and fun game. It can be a little bit repetitive, maybe adding extra objectives, like improving a barn that makes your animal type gives you more points... powerups like faster boots...
@penelope and all nice work and game, really great mood :) and a close race is always a loop :D
@tricky-fat-cat and others, from another godot developer :D really good job! This game is insane!
Nice 3D graphics for a Compo game! I know that an orbit is a loop but how the game is, seams a little bit far fetched. Maybe an orbit representation would do the trick. The concept is interesting giving the vision how satellites are difficult to manage when the fuel is limited :)
@jamie-simpson one the first level I am not sure if it is correct because I did a "stable" orbit and in time the spacecraft went to the planet. The second level seems ok and the physics felt more real. KSP is one of my favourite games and I got the KSP feeling :D not sure if you did the theme although when you orbit you are in a loop :) Great work and have fun! :)
@jamie-simpson I think I know what was the problem: in the first level the planet orbit a sun that you can't see. That confused me.
If you pass in my channel I can explain better: https://www.twitch.tv/rgilpt
@elysiagriffin and all, love how you are stuck with the theme :) really enjoyable game congratulations :)
Not sure if I understood when I could work or not... and went into debt fast :D... thought the mood, sound and graphics were great :) congrats
@huntrox great work for a Compo game :) well design a forever chief game :)
Maybe needs a little bit balance and challenge, also a bit work on physics. Although I liked the game and the music let you continue on the voyage :) Nice work @zmvl
@xedur From an Educator, really liked your concept, great work :)
@keithswanger Really nice work, I love your graphics and the idea.
@nocity this can be a very interesting and arcade game for mobile. Publish to check that. It made me laugh :D
Well done I got the Zelda vibe with the loop feel :D Also liked the graphics. Well done :) @itskdog
@javicoder you did well by sticking the poor guy in a loop :) good job for 48h :)
@ubershmekel I fell in the pit :O after the snakes :D great concept, maybe you could show parts of the platform: a mixture of both would be very interesting :) well done :)
I like the mix between zombie apocalypse and running... interesting idea :D. You might check the ammo, I am not sure if it is correct.
@chickencastle Great Compo concept :) not sure how to rest and increase the energy, but the game is fun :D nice work for 48h
@amin-jk000 felt a little bit lost in your game: not sure if it is a bug, but sometimes I threw a signal and the blueish thing get stuck in the channel - maybe it was stuck in the loop :D. I liked the graphics for a compo :)
@snotax I really enjoyed your game, it is not common to see management game types here and I liked it. Well done :)
@kisk Really enjoyed the game, I like the freedom of solving the puzzles, it should be possible to have at least the bars on the same spot after losing. You should continue the game :)
@johndaivisse I really like the music and the concept is great! Good and polished work!
Has you said :D it was a walking simulation :) I don't think the enemies attack you, I don't understood the theme. But for the first LD game it is great and I really liked your graphics! :)
@gilad-bar-ilan I enjoyed the game, very well performed for Compo. Did not entirely feel the stuck in a loop theme. Also why the hero was with a mask in Jail? :D The story might be more: you try to rob a house full of ghost... my 5 cents :D I had fun good work :)
Hi @cursedsoldier really good work for 48h :) I agree with @sop-the-turtle, you are in the theme!
Really nice game :) I enjoyed the mood and the music. Reminds me a bit portal but to be honest I haven't played it :D @linetaru and all well done! :)
@layne-stokes the music is really great :) nice game.
@etrealjunior didn't understand the objective maybe it doesn't have... :) but didn't feel the stuck in a loop. You have a lot of models and sometimes the game slowdown. But I enjoy the scenario and the music, but gets boring in time :D maybe a key to turn it off. Good job and have fun :)
404, not found
Didn't found the solution but I like the innovation, the stuck on the loop and graphics :)
Well done, game is great for a compo. I missed the music :D. Didn't pass the second level, tried different approaches, but not the right one :D Great work!
@guilloteam nice concept, great implementation of the music, it lacks some powerups - musical of course. An idea ability to save the music to post for fb tw, etc and get viral :D You should continue this game :)
Well done for 48h, I liked very much the concept :) ty for your game :)
@tradingbooch12 got the same error as the others :(
Very fun game @omer-zadok and all, congratulations :) I love the loop :)
@tengusheath nice job, you did the theme :) lack music but the sound effects were nice... feels like it moves faster left and right compared with the diagonals. Did day 12 :)
