Heey, I really like what you have done here! The visuals and the game play feels like an old retro game! Very nice! And I like you used Phaser, just like we did! :-O Only missed a nice tune!
Fun puzzle/platformer! Some music would add a nice ambiance feel to the game it think! And as other have said, the jumping is not too intuitive/doesn't always work as you would think. Well done!
Cute game! But I never really understood the game-play? Eventually I even tried to blow the planet up by catching the comets and being near the sun. But nothing happened. I liked the music, it fitted with the whole theme/feel you had going on! Well done!
Well made! Nice atmosphere and gfx. Quite the undertaking to make a game like this in a game jam! Although it felt more like a story than a game.
Yepp, still not working URL.
Well done, I enjoyed it! Fun game even though it took a while to understand/get the hang of it.
Oh crap, I sucked at this game! Kept killing myself! :-) Some polish and music and it would be really fun(nier)! Well done!
Cool game! Like Missile Command, only with better gfx. :) Really liked it, but missed a wee bit of music. :) Also as stated before, the UFO:s were hard to see. Well done!
Interesting game, well done! Although I am obviously not a God of any kind. :) The gfx for the building blocks (barracks etc) could have been made better, it was difficult to know what kind they were. Was there any audio..? I couldn't hear anything. I liked the concept and had to stay and play it for a while.
Cute game, even though it took me a couple of tries before I remebered who likes what. Not too intuitive, for me that is. :) Did you do the music as-well? Nice tune! Congrats, well done!
Fun and innovative game! Like the idea and the vector-like gfx! Shooting is always fun! =) What I missed though is some kind of progression with the game, it was basically the same thing all the time? Like new enemies, other stuff that happens and so on perhaps? (there seems to be a bug sometimes when you try to play again, but nothing that hindered me from playing) Well done!
Nice shoot-em-up! Really enjoyed it! Even though each new "level" actually seemed to just start over with new background though, with same weapons/shields as start? Some other enemies, other types of waves, music and it would have been a solid game! Well done! (PS the "story" text between games could have used a "skip"-btn I think...after a couple of times it got a bit too much)
Note to self: if buying fish for real, buy all of the same type. :-) For a while I had 13 fish! But I only saw 2? I then turned the power off and I had 15 fish! :-) At the end I tried to kill them all off, but wasn't able to. They just kept on living (zombie-fish?) Do the 4 fish-bowls do anything? I wasn't able to use them anyway? It was a fun game and well done!
Looking good! :-)
Nice game! Liked the music and the "simple" feeling of the gfx. A bit more challenging and this game could be even cooler I think. :) Well done!
Cool Inception-style-game! Took a while to understand what was going on and what really to do. :) The theme and the feel of the game is nice but the controls (to me) seemed a bit..off somehow.
Fun game! Although I was never able to find a portal? I just killed everything and then wandered around until my energy vanished and i died... (I played the web-version) It was also a bit difficult to understand what tiles were OK to walk on ("ground") and which ones were "walls". But maybe I just a bit slow. :) Well done!
Loved the game! Nice feel to it and nice control. Audio and better enemy spawn would make it amazing! Well done! (Also, 2 questions: 1) Are you wearing a pajama right now? 2) have you removed the dog food from your ear yet though? bcs that doesn't sound like a good place to keep it. Just a tip.)
Nice platformer! Really nice graphics and audio. Level design is also cool and I like the idea of the game. For me I think the control/character was a bit too "slippery". And I didn't quite get how the LD40-theme fitted the game. But all-in-all a really nice game! Impressive you could make it so polished in such a short time! /Greetings from a fellow Phaser-dev! =)
Well another game I sucked at! ;-) Interesting game that I see could be a fun Candy Crush-type of thing on mobiles perhaps. Some smaller issues with the controls stucking and being able to place goods outside the walls. All in all an enjoyable experience! Well done!
Hello there top-down car steering game-dev! :-) Loved the game and the fun music. The changing controls freaked me out though. :) Some more stuff to grab would make a bit more gamy I believe. Good work!
Of-course! A "classic" snake-eats-apples-and-grows-game is a perfect fit for the theme! Why didn't I think of that? :) Really nice puzzle game, I liked it!
HA, I loved this game! So simple yet so fun! Jolly well done!
Thanks for testing the game and all feedback! We have now fixed a couple of bugs that made the game a bit harder than we planned. So going off road shouldn't be as harsh as before and killing pedestrians now has a max value (you basically slowed down to a full stop before).
@cubeeo Heey, thanks for playing! Bah, who has time for instructions at a death rally anyways? Yepp, we wanted there to be "shortcuts" to make it feel like you are tricking the game :-). It adds a bit of fun we think. Again, thanks for playing and good luck with the killings! Please do post an img if you get some awesome results (or just post one anyways)! It would make us happy! :-)
@justking144 Haha, yepp, that was kind-of the point. :-) Its bad to kill people! But it's so fun... But if I do I go slower! Yeah, but you get more points... :-) And hey, the car is made to go off track also, only it wont go as fast....but sliding around in the sand is fuuun! Thanks for your feedback!
@jani-nykanen Hehe, actually we had that at first....but there was A LOOOOT of screaming then. :-) And it also took away some of the fun off running people over, we think. (Don't try running over people IRL though! No matter what color your car is. Only when the world comes to and end in a CARnage this is allowed!) ;o)
@x-budsterized-x We did too! Did we just become best frineds? (Yupp!) :-) This is actually why we made this game, we missed those games. [?name the movie quote!]
@blizary thank you! @sawtan giggles like a little girl every time his gfx gets compliments! Running people over is part of the game, so don't feel about it. ;-)
@aaronw thanks for playing! Mission accomplished for us then! Just what we were going for!
@krasse Ooohhh, there goes @sawtan again with the giggles... ;-) Yes, those are definitely things we would loved to have refined, but didn't have time to do. Thanks for playing and enjoying, comments like this makes us happy! Are you Swedish BTW? Cause I like some krasse on my meat-sandwich! You making me hunggy! (cress)
@adrenallen well running over peds (or pedos as we like to call them, making it more OK to run them over) isn't really negative. In real life maybe, but in the game it is the only way to get a score. :-) Thanks for playing! (stop that giggling @sawtan ffs!)
@nilsson yupp, you are evil and you are going straight to hell! Sorry! But on a good note; you can play the game in hell as much as you want to! Thank you for your kind comments!
@mase classic is what we were going for! We also agree regarding the gfx, we just didn't have time to add more stuff. :( We also wanted to make the game difficult, but not impossible. Just like in the 80's! Oooh, yes, we had planned for an update/shop-screen! But there was no time to implement it... Thanks for playing!
@captaindreamcast exactly! Who doesn't like a good scream when running people over? Right? 22 is an OK score! That's 22 less mouths to feed meat to! Thanks you for your comment and for playing!
@andreas-ragen-ayal thanks for playing and your comments! Yupp, we agree, an upgrade shop was in our backlog. But we had to remove it, didn't get the time to develop it unfortunately. And you might be correct about the boosts, there was only so much time for refinement. Thanks and Game On!
@swarrly Thanks, we did play quite a lot with the controls. Everybody has a little bit of different take on how it "should" feel. Glad you liked it! Maybe we should have added some info in-game also about the power-ups, we didn't think about that actually, thanks for the tip! Glad you enjoyed the game!
@tobiasnl yeah, we had a bit of arguing on how much drifting to have / how "realistic" it should be and so on. Some people even think it is too much drifting right now. Thanks for the comments, feedback and for playing!
@nerketur the long screams are intended, they should make you think about them. If you like running over people youi'll like the sounds! If you don't like running over people. well, don't run them over and they wont scream! Easy! ;-) Thanks for playing and your great comments!
@mr-madcat why thanks for noticing! We did put some time into polishing it to make it feel more like a "real" game. Often the LD-games we make are far from polished... Thanks for playing please come again! Miua!
@tvance the plan was to record our own voices for the screams, but I'm not sure we actually had time to do it. So our sound-guy did them. I don't believe any animals or humans were harmed during the recording... ;-) Hm, yes, maybe we could have been a bit more clear on the theme, but we were just happy to be able to put something fun together, didn't have so much time to think. =) Thanks for playing!
@icxon wow, thanks for your valuable and detailed feedback. It is much appreciated! We actually agree with most of your comments (even the "other things" ;-) ). Unfortunately there wasn't time to polish it enough to take all the small quirks out of it. We hope you enjoyed it anyway and thanks for taking the time to do a detailed run down of the game!
@roaring-cat-games yeah, we wanted it to be difficult. But maybe we made it a bit too difficult in the process. The point was to make the player fight for that finish-line to make the win even sweeter... Powerups could have used a bit more polish, yeah. Hitting pedestrians isn't really just punishment though, it is the way to get score. BUT if you score to much you will go slower (as in the theme om LD40 :) ). Thanks for commenting and playing Mr/Mrs/Miss Cat Games!
Hehe, fun game with nice "daddy-joke" hints. I like! Some sound (8-bit?) would have added a bit more I think?
OMG he need medical attention, sweating like that! Nice level building and fun to play. His sisters needs not to be ashamed of his brother in that area. The sweating and the boozing...well, that's something different. I had some problems getting the hand of dropping stuff in correct places, took a bit of trial-and-error but didn't take away from the fun game play. The music and sounds really fits well with the theme also. Did the sweating make him slower also? I don't think so, it was only a graphical thing..? Bravo, well done!
Nice music and I liked the humor! Also the graphics was really nice. But the game play wasn't that interesting after a short while unfortunately. Good work!
Interesting idea even though it would seem I suck at finding boxes. :) Was there a algorithm that calculated the possibility to get to all boxes in time for the player? Bcs it seemed impossible at times...but I might just suck. Even at easy-mode. Didn't quite like the idea of dying bcs you fall off the path. Perhaps you would only walk slower? Nice work!
Really liked the idea behind the game! I would love to have seen some better level design. I think the "first" level was a bit to hard to start off with. Better to "ease" the player into the idea I think. Very well done!
Haha! Interesting idea! I liked the player and aesthetics of the game. Although I was not sure if the character was actually drinking any coffee (I got -13 points!?). Also I could not spill a drop of the coffee when a mug fell over. Some more refinement and some challenges somehow and this could be a fun "pass the time" game I think. Jolly good, carry on!
Nice idea for a game, I liked it! The graphics were not that interesting though so some new graphics would probably lift the game a bit. Also some power-ups and/or a way to go the the "next level" or something like this? I either suck at this game or the balance was a bit off, it got difficult a bit to quickly for me. All-in-all well done in 8h !
Cool game, nice music and penguins! Yeeeaaay! Didn't get past lvl 3 though, but maybe if I practice a bit more.... =) Keep on keeping!
Wow, really well done! What a fun game! Sure, it's not perfect: sometime the character "sticks" to a straight wall, the aliens do strange things (maybe they are supposed to?) and the controls don't seem to listen as they should. But some minor refinement and this would be even better. I really liked it anyway. Fun idea with the aliens tagging along for each level, didn't expect that but it follows the theme nicely. Congrats on making a fun and enjoyable game in this short time! =)
Nice classic asteroids-style game is never wrong! Good touch with the faces/eyes! I'm also glad you could restart on the level where you died, it would have beeen waaay to hard for me otherwise. =)
No wonder my chickens starved, they don't know how to use knife and forks! ;-) Liked the idea you got going here, loved the art. Also I think I won! My hi-score: a lot! ;) Thanks for the game!
Very nice game! Congrats! Now I need to drink beer and play some more darts...c ya!
Interesting game, kind of a puzzle but not. It was very laggy though. And after a while the "light"-circle grow to cover the whole screen and I didn't have to move the mouse. Re-spawning flowers just blew up by themselves. (Ok, just read the comment you made that this was intended) If that would get refined, and some music and nice sounds added this could be a cute game! Well done!
Nice twist to be able to control the book, that made the game! But some work on the controls, refinement, would make it even better. Good work!
Really nice game! Like the theme and feel. The controls are however not really "right" for me, right-click to move is not how "other" games do it. :)
OMG! This was way to hard and stressful for me, glad I'm not in this line of business! ;) Really liked the gfx but figuring out how to cure took a bit too long (for me anyway).
I'm glad I'm married and off the market. Sheesh it's tough dating! Panela is a bit bossy also... Loved the game!
Allright, I'm a crazy cat man! I like it! Sound and graphics is really nice. Like the idea also, even though having that many cats is cwayzzyyy! 8-) My hiscore: Cats=501, Score=8243. There is some bug/feature that makes you go through walls sometimes. I also got stuck in the "bottom" om the house wall, could not get out. Was "glued" down. Is there a way to restart the game, wo reloading the whole thing? Btw "kissa" means "to pee" in Swedish. Quite fitting I guess. =)
As a "game" it wasn't that exciting, but as a whole "experience" it was really nice and fun!
Pleasent game with a pleasent mood to it. It took me a couple of tries before I understood what to do, but then I "won". :-) Sounds, some kind of enemies and more obstacles/longer level would have made it more fun. Nice going though!
Fun shmup! A bit more difference would add a lot. Also I got "Congratulations" and OK button? What does that mean? Did I win? Loose? What was my score then? I'm glad you could hold down the mouse-button! =)
@r2d48 nah, I think holding down the button is fine! Activate/inactivate autofire would make it too "easy". Maybe you could write "Congratulations, you won!" ?
Interesting "simulator"! If it is a "game" I didn't quite understand it then. :) Is ther a way to win/loose? Never happened to me though, none of the states. I did my best to kill them, I think, but failed it would seem. =) Some more game mechanics would make it more interesting. And a way to "group control" the ants instead of having to individually clicking on each one (or maybe that was part of the theme?) :). Nicely done anyway!
This ship-woman-thingy has not evolved far enough, she dies really easily! :-) Really nice game, I liked it a lot. But I found the controls to be a bit awkward somehow, not so easy to control. A bit of more polish and this could be a really cool(er) game! Carry on!
Nice idea and a fun cute game! And cats! There is some bug (?) though, sometime the cat goes to another "room" and is then gone, no way to get all cats home then. Some refinement and I think you could have a fun game on mobile devices that a lot of people might want to play. I liked it anyway. And my daughter. =) Nicely done!
@andreas-ragen-ayal I believe it happened when it got to the left of the sofa and somehow when I jumped on it/tried to carry it, it was gone (got into the next room?). So it was impossible to clear the stage at that point. Once we also accidentally bounced a cat "into space" (via the red chair in the middle). :-) But that-one actually fell down like 20 sec later...maybe that was intended though. It was fun feature! :)
Art and music in nice. Regarding the gameplay I'm not sure, there wasn't enough feedback to know what you were doing. This would need a bit more refinement and then it could be an interesting game I think.
Well this was kind of...Monty Pythonesque? Not sure I love it or hate it. ;) I love it of course! I THINK I made it to the end, a rainbow. Don't know if that was the end. Or if I won. Or lost. I don't care. Thanks for the experience!
Beautiful game, liked it a lot! Never got the be quite comfy with the controls though, kept steering into islands a stopping. :-/ Is there a way to "win"? I never succeeded though, but I'm not really good with ships it seems. Mote "levels" and perhaps "missions" to solve would maybe make it a bit more "gamy". Thanks for creating the game!
Cute game that needs a little bit more work/refinement. It wasn't easy to understand what the point of the game was. Was it to pick up only yellow? Didn't see any diff if I picked up other colours? The ball would be better if it actually rolled (graphically) but the feel or a rolling ball was there though! Also not sure where a boss battle should come in or how that would work, but it does sound interesting. Well done!
Oh what the...! I wanted to go work for Pear! ;-) Interesting game with an interesting theme. For a first game I think it was OK. Some more interesting choices and "adventure" would perhaps make it a bit more "gamy". And maybe some graphics and images. But I can tell you put some effort into it. Well done!
Nice cool game! I enjoyed it. Went well with the music and feel. Maybe it was only me but I think the controls were a bit laggy/slow. Other than that, well done!
Really liked the idea here! But the key mapping was to difficult for me, didn't feel quite natural.
Ah sorry! A freakin fun game idea but the controls killed it for me. :( I would have loved to play more but it was too frustrating for me. Polish the controls a bit and it would be amaaaazingballs. Oh yeah, loved the gfx!
Nice graphics, cute vibes all around! But it was a bit too much clicking for me. :) It would have been nice with some alternate levels in between maybe? I also didn't get the instructions and thought you were supposed to let the stars have the cookies. Really nice first LD though! It felt smooth and polished! Well done!
Really liked the game idea! It should be explored more into a puzzle/action game! Well done! I agree with previous comments that the controls got "weird" when you had clones, but maybe that was intentional? Maybe it should be refined a bit more though?
Beautiful, fun and nice sounds! The controls didn't agree with me and the "flying into space and disappear" was a bit confusing at first. Very well done!
Nice feel and atmosphere. Although I had a problem with the camera, maybe I missed something? I was only able to look one way, which made it hard to get to some places. Also some info about controls would have been useful. (WASD + click with mouse to take/give gold/silver? OR are there more buttons?)
I used to love this kind of games. But I seem to have lost the touch, it got too difficult too quickly for me. Liked the graphics, but missed some music. Also I'm not quite sure if I got the correct food...but they seemed happy. Well done!
Nice game! I like this style of game and doing one for LD is an interesting idea! It is ofc difficult to make a game really polished in this short time but you managed to get the basic mechanics of the game! Some sounds are missing to make it more compelling, an exploding Yel would be fun also. :-) And screaming Yels for that. The controls are a bit iffy making it somewhat problematic sometimes. Also, when failing it is not fun to start over at level 1. :-( Good work!
Cool game dudes! Graphics and mood was really great. Also the game and controls felt really tight. Felt like the retro games I used to play on my C64/Amiga, that's a compliment. :) Like a mix of Alien and Star Trek or something.
Well done, and glad to see Phaser used!
@selina thanks for your kind words and thanks for playing! We did want to make it as complete and polished as possible, but alas, time is limited in a LD. :-) Scary? Well, they are just pixels you know. Or are they...? :smiling_imp:
@dapotap hey thanks! Glad you liked it and hope you had a fun time playing! :blush: After this @sawtan will start boosting about his gfx. Again. ;-) And I will start boosting about my scary sounds... :open_mouth: :loud_sound:
@hebbinckuys-paul thanks for playing and thanks for your comments! Hm, "concept is not very original"? I'm quite sure we invented this type of concept for a game for this LD!? Never been done before, they told me? At-least that's what my team-mates tell me! ;-)
Of-course we were inspired by games like this. We love the genre (Bubble Bobble I'm looking at you!) And yes, we had fun! But also difficulties and sadness at times, as per normal in a LD. ;-) I'll tell our sound-person/engineer about your praise of the sounds. (Hey, that's me! Thanks dude! :speaker: :smile: )
@sbtn flat blood eyh? Well we had MINOR problems with getting it SHARP enough thru the MAJOR pixels. (that's a free music joke for you right there! :wink: )
Kind of you to play and comment! @sawtan will be pleased people like his stuff! He gets very disgruntled when people don't. (**hint hint** people giving grades!)
@khorm put a lot of effort into those levels, to get them just right. He fought right to the bitter end, and still wanted to add more levels. :smile: So a :trophy: to him!
@0x01f0 w000t!? They told me it was impossible? It could not be done by a mere mortal human, they said! And you sir/madam did it anyway? What kind of beast art thou? Well, we have no choice but to send you the check. Get back to us with your adr and we'll mail you the giant check of awesome! :wink: :trophy:
Wow, can't believe you put so much effort into playing it, makes me happy and proud. And a bit worried for you... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Naaah! We made this game for people like you. The 4% that actually are sadistic enough to go to the bitter end just to hear my voice at the winning screen :speaking_head: . We salute you! :v: :confetti_ball:
Big thanks also for your great feedback! We agree with it but we'll blame it on time. She is a cruel mistress especially on a LD. :sob:
@derek-volker well somebody had to do it. So we had a sit-down with the chaps in the team and agreed to take one for the LD-people! Hell yah! Heroes they called us. (no, they didn't, nobody called us that) :wink:
There was sure a lot of devil/hellish-themed games, but the theme name was kind of telling for this area I think.
Gfx-guy @sawtan is happy! Sound hobo @rolle is sad. :cry: Nah, jk! Thanks for the comment, I agree. There just wasn't any time to fine-tune the whole game together, to make all parts really tight. It's more of a concept, a feel of what we had in mind. (BTW killing priests should be startling, so that's a good sign :wink: )
The idea with the levels was some kind of puzzling feel to it, and @khorm did a great job! But ofc we didn't make it all the way we would have wished.
Thanks for playing and thanks for your comment! :joystick:
@mladjo2505 thanks for playing!
@mladjo2505 thanks! Will do right away! =)
@cribin thanks! We used a lot of wax and cloths! Buffed her right up to top-notch polish! :sweat_smile:
@kaeveris thank you! We like to think so also!
Haha, cute and quirky game! It made me happy playing it. Music and sounds are quite fitting also, nice work! Is there a way to end up NOT dead? :-) I sure didn't manage to do it though. =)
Hey, cool game dude! :call_me: :pizza: Did not know there was a Pizza Devil/Demon, but now i know. I have been educated. It also kind of makes sense. :smile:
The second fixed version is much more playable, the first was a bit too dark. For me the humor works great. But then, people tell me constantly my humor sucks so... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I loved the atmosphere and I ofc expected more horror, more scares. The mood was there.
Regarding the controls I also agree, took me a bit of time to understand that I had to hold it down to hold it. :) My first move was also the fridge for the cold stuff. But that's all in the game! Controls worked nicely and the music was fitting. I have to say your demon sound voice was cooler than mine. :sob:
Nice art and effects all-around, I can tell you are pros in the area. Sure a few quirks (text on objects, font in narrating screen) but a solid entry! Congrats!
I agree with the comments, largest game evva on a LD? Is there some kind of price for this, I think you should have it then! :medal: :wink:
Very fun game and nice concept! Could probably be built upon in a lot of levels. Really like the graphics and the mood that is set with the music. Too bad you opted out/didn't write it yourself! :-) Congrats on a fun game!
I like the concept and the graphics! Could have been really cool! But it lacks bit in the controls and the physics in the game. Some sound would of course also have added to the feel, but getting a game done is not easy for a LD. But the basic game idea was fun I think and fitting for the theme! Well done!
Fun game and an instant "just one more try". Good level design also! Gfx and audio also top notch! Congrats! (the negatives, basically the same as have been given in other comments already :) )
I liked the mood and the cool art! A bit surprised the angry birds didn't throw them self's at me though!? :bird: ;-) The game was a bit short and too easy I think, though. Left me wanting more. This game could have been so much more, more enemy types. Could be like an adventure game with a story. The implementation was great I think. It ran great in browser for me also.
Wow cool game! And Death Wish! Great theme, and movie! :smile:
You made all of this alone in this short time frame? Holy crap, you must have sacrificed your sleep and health. :wink:
Nice retro feel to it and very nice music and art. Some few bugs but nothing that bothered me (killing everybody = green arrow to continue. But one of the bad guys the arise, but can't punch him and he can't hurt me) I also miss a jump-button, it's classic!
Solid entry, congrats! (even if I couldn't get past lvl 2 :sob:)
Nice platformer and graphics! The controls were not what I was used to making it a bit difficult, but that's probably just me. Was there a light to follow, or is that only symbolic? I didn't see one :-) and unfortunately didn't make it to the end. But it was fun!
A game to make you think about sacrifices, in all the ways we make them. Philosophy, quotes and so on. Not my type of "game", but it was pleasant I guess. Music was nice. Quite tranquil. I think more thought and work went into this than it may show though even if it seems "simplistic". Congrats on the game!
Charming game with interesting ideas. I like the graphics ideas. Music was really nice also! It was a bit hard to understand what was going on the first time. And as asked before, what did we sacrifice? Keys were also a bit off for me, but nothing that really bothered a lot. Congrats on your game!
Wow, very cool game! I like it! Only thing I miss are bit better instructions but all-in-all a really solid entry and game!
Fun game! I agree with the comments saying you want to try and retry until you make it!
Controls disappear after a while making it hard to continue where you were at. The jumps were hard to master, for me atleast. :-) Would like to have seen more puzzle challenge with the goo, it was basically just to follow the level to get where you were going. So not much strategy there.
I really liked the idea and the feel in the game! And how it was possible to fool the Minotaur by luring it into other places. For me I would like to have seen better control, or different controls perhaps. It was not tight enough. It was also a bit too easy and since not much changes I kind of gave up 7-8 levels in. As someone suggested already powerups or something like this would have made it more interesting. And of course music and sounds, but I know time is not easy to find to do all you would like. =) Good work!
I like this charming platformer! However the controls didn't quite fit me though, had to play with my left hand. (I'm right handed) I likes the graphics, but agree that the jump sound could have been toned down a bit. Well done and congrats on the game!
Very sweet game! And I loved the music, I'm a sucker for acoustic guitar. But next time I see a tern, I will turn around and hide. Don't feel like getting my brains pecked out!? :scream: Not sure how it ties into the theme though? Maybe I'm missing something? Some minor bugs, like white-tailed eagle info not coming when touching the bird etc. Very cool and Congrats on your first game ! :smile:
Ah, the old sacrifice-the-cow-trick, I see! :smile: Broke my heart to kill that cow in the forest, but s/he's in a better place now. In the eagles stomach. :eagle: :cow:
Cool game! Fun playing! And yes, I did also see the phallic symbols when I look at the screenshots you have. :eggplant: I had to look closer to make sure. =) As said before, the game was a bit "easy" and could have progressed faster. Congrats on a nice entry!
I loved it! I'm a sucker for bloom! I don't know why asparagus' make a duck sound when jumping, but hey, I'm not an expert in asparagus. But I would love to have seen some more game elements, like "duck" (as in not only jumping :wink: ) or perhaps some other kinds of "enemies". The theme, you have to sacrifice gas to get more gas, I think it works. All in all though it made me happy playing it and the gfx is top notch for this kind of style!
Haha, very fun concept! I like it, puzzlegame with body attachments! A few glitches but fun! Well done!
Nice cute game! Cool you used Scratch, I could probably never have stand it. :-) I liked the graphics.
Was there a goal in the game, an end? I didn't reach one though. And what was the "sacrifice" part of the game? Cool entry and congrats on the game!
Nice solid and well made puzzle game! I'm glad there was no penalty for "number of junction points/key-presses" or time it took to solve a puzzle though... :sweat_smile: The puzzles are surprisingly well made in this short time. This often becomes a big hurdle for games like this and the time constraint.
Also loved the music, it was very fitting.
Congrats on such a well made game! :thumbsup:
ZOMG the tourists are stupid! Why would you go the the corpse of a dead person who just got killed by the animal you want to see??? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Haha, nice cute game! Well, "people" die so not "cute-cute" but still, cute. :wink: The sounds and the feeling of the game was really nice and the graphic fits very well with this theme.
Fun clicker-game but sometimes it felt like my "clicks" didn't impact the tourists at all. Could be nice with some indication perhaps that you managed to interact with the tourist? Audio/visual? But I liked that the guide was fast runner at-least! :thumbsup:
PS I will not start working as a guide. :smile:
Congrats on making a wonderful game!
I got a nice warm "retro"-feeling playing this! I liked the graphics and the colour-palette very much, felt like a good theme. I tried the keyboard first but it was easier with USB-gamepad (just like you recommended :smile: )
Sounds would have added some extra to this, but other than this it is well made in such a short time! Enjoyed this one! :rocket:
Nice aesthetics and game-play! Liked this schmup-world, it felt nice.
The counting was used a bit too much for my taste, it could have been used more sparingly. Wish I could try it with a friend, seems like a cool idea also.
Congrats on making a fun and beautiful game! :rocket:
@mrnyarlathotep thanks for playing and commenting!
Yeah, after playing the game so many times I thought it was getting too easy. But also I didn't really have time to experiment with when/how much things should disturb the miner. I agree it was a bit too much. I had ideas of enemies and boulders falling, but alas, time is not merciful when it comes to these game jams.
@snesgaard thanks for playing and commenting!
Yeah, there was a bug with the music when it restarts sometime. We could call it a feature if you like... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: but it really is a :bug: Didn't have the time/strength to figure out what I missed.
Yepp, I'm definitely a very artsy kind of person, thank you for noticing! (no, I am not and had to struggle for a really long time just to make what I did :weary: )
@last-angle thanks for playing! :wave:
And thanks for the feedback. Yes, sorry, I didn't have time to fine tune the different hurdles so a couple of things was a bit over the top I guess. :rocket:
@gamefive thanks for playing the game! Yupp, this is kind of a classic endless runner-game, but going down instead of sideways. :smile:
@khorm thanks for playing and nice score! I didn't get that high of a score... :smile:
As always with these game jams there is not much time to test the game as much as you would want to, so yeah, there are definitely a few glitches. I see it more like a "Proof of Concept" than a full featured game.
My first idea was actually to make a rouge-type of game, going down catacombs, deeper and deeper into the earth. But I was afraid the level-design-stuff would take too long...this was the third choice. :sweat_smile:
@sawtan thanks for playing, please come again! :smile_cat:
I do enjoy coding something else than enterprise stuff sometimes but the time constraints are killing me. But it sure was fun and somehow still relaxing. I hope to be able to keep it up some more, this game-jaming-stuff.
Game on! :video_game:
@pat-cleaver Thanks for stopping by! Yeah, it was a bit much, time constraints and so on made me not able to test the game enough. :wave:
@gaminghamster well hello there! :runner: :smile: Thanks for the comments, I do agree. I can only blame my time management skills, my lacking skills that is. I will make sure to try your game!
@flying-dog-fish cool name! :smile: :dog: :fish: Thanks for the comments! It seems people do find the shake a bit intense, yes. Too much too soon, eyh? :zap: Not easy balancing a game in stress mode, but I do agree! :-)
@jakobthequizguy thanks for playing and commenting! I have now added a warning to the description. I agree some of the effects got a bit out of hand, this is what happens when you are a bit too stressed out...
@adonisdevs cool, the simultaneous audio tracks: that's a feature I worked on some time to get it juuust right! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I noted this "feature" but didn't have time to dig into why it was happening. Thanks for your comment, I have added a warning about shaking/blinking in the game.
@xlambein big thanks for the extensive review and comments on the game! I wasn't aware of the "The intro screen music doesn’t play the first time you play the game" so thanks for spotting this!
I have only my poor time management to blame, I didn't have time to fix all "small" quirks. Instead I wanted to get something out there that was working "OK-ish". Also, I have basically no ideas about gfx and creation of this so I really didn't give this much thought. I only fired up Piskel and started drawing the fast I could (which wasn't fast and really bad also) Thanks for brining this to my attention, I will think about it next time. :rocket:
@oadt oh, wow, I did not expect anyone mentioning the music as "the best", I feel flattered and almost a bit ashamed since it feel the tools I used for this did most of the work. (It's "only" beatbox-sounds arranged in different orders...well I guess all music is this actually in a way :wink: ) Thanks for your comments and feedback also, it seems there is work to be done on movement and platform-hitting. :thumbsup:
@meta-link thanks for playing and commenting! :wave:
@gamedev-and-architecture again, the music? :blush: Thank you! Yes, it seems I didn't make the controls good enough, lack of testing I'm afraid. Big thanks for playing and commenting, hope you enjoyed. :rocket:
@jonrei good idea, thanks for the feedback. Maybe it could be a power-up? :smile:
@michaelyount thank you! This was the main goal, an extremely simple casual game with simple controls but hopefully still fun and intriguing. :wave:
@reheated well I am no artist so I definitely agree with you here! :sweat_smile: Thanks for testing it!
@binaryprinciple yes, it seems to be a bit intense. But since it isn't an actual bug I have left it as it is for now. Good idea with the platform suggestions, haven't thought about it like that. Thanks! :rocket:
@ziggykac thanks! Yes, this was the original plan, to make it easy enough to be able to have it on a mobile phone. It definitely needs polish! :smile:
@dans17 thanks for playing! Sorry, didn't give it enough time to test the difficulty level. Yeah, good idea with the platforms! Somebody else commented on making the platforms more a part of the game, and I think you are right. :wave:
@edur wow, never thought about that, yes there is some similarity I guess! But a bit different tone to it. Haven't played that one in a long time, that was a fun game. Gotta listen to the music and get some inspiration for the next jam now! :smile: Thanks for playing and commenting!
@olddog the screen-shaking is based too much on luck now, should be more skill based so you have a greater chance to survive it. Another thing that need fixing. Thanks for playing! :rocket:
@nice-gear-games hehe, thank you and you are very correct, this was programmer art with a programmer who sucks at art. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Thanks for the play and comment! :mount_fuji:
@noteworthy yepp, never had time to find what was causing that audio-bug, it was quite annoying. Thanks for playing anyway! Hope you liked it! :musical_score:
@etdofresh ooh, impressive work! I don't think I have gotten that far. :open_hands: Got the shakes eyh? :smile: Almost sounds like a disease or something now. :wink: I had fun making it (mostly) so big thanks for playing and commenting! :joystick:
@videt :sweat_smile: yeah didn't have time for a fancy death-sound so just recorded some real life feelings of coding this game and added some simple filters. :wink: Thanks for the play and the comment! :rocket:
@0x01f0 impressive though! @khorm bought a couple of lootboxes and got lucky... :wink:
Hm, never made that link to Rednex :smile: If I've known I could had have a totally different theme :cowboy: Imagining Wild Wild West now... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Thanks for playing and thanks for commenting! :wave:
Hell of a game! :)
Amaaazing graphics and marvelous (and fun) music. Well put together by the coders also, some really nice effects there. I would expect no less from you guys. ;)
I liked how the game fit the theme and the Inferno-idea. The controls, for me atleast, was a bit "wobbly/soapy" (maybe bcs my new wirless keyboard?). Also sometimes hard to know if you hit an enemy or not, this would have been nice with some cool deaths also.
Yes I know, the time constraint is a an evil mistress...I'm sure you had to leave behind a gazillion ideas because of this.
All in all, devilishly well done, congrats!
Cool idea for a game and interesting interpretation of the concept! :smile:
"an drunk rummaged across the furrball the furrball glared through the injury"
Make you think about that poor furrball and the consequences of alcoholic beverages... :smile_cat:
I would have liked that it would have been possible to regret a choice, at-least one step. Even though I like the idea of not being able to regret also... :thinking:
Also on my machine (Windows) I could hardly make out the text against the window, only on mouse-over could I see what the text said. Was this intentional?
A bit disappointed also that I couldn't interact with the cats... :sob: :wink:
You could also save the words without actually seeing them. :)
Hope you don't see this as nagging because I really liked the game! Congrats on making a wonderful game! :thumbsup:
Beautiful game! I love the ambient feel of it and the game play. Also really like how the player and the "enemies" moved/flowed. Well done!
Some thoughts, and I know the time constraint probably made you have to prioritize other things: Difficult to know where you are supposed to go sometimes, as you have no point of reference. I sometimes just swam around for a minute or so without seeing anything else. Maybe as the others suggested, a zoom out or a map or something?
Also I thought you should eat "enemies" that are smaller than you. But it seems I could eat all? Or did I loose a "life" when I did this...? Seems I could eat larger prey but it wasn't clear why (this could be because of my previous experience with games like this, nothing says you couldn't).
Congrats to a really special and nice game! Thanks for the experience of playing it!
Wow, really nice game! The music, the graphics is really great! Nice interpretation of the theme also! :smile:
Amazed you could do all of this in this short time, guess you guys didn't sleep much? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Congrats on the game! :spy:
:smile: Fun and interesting story and nice voice acting! It must have been fun making even if it probably was quite stressful, both on your throat and on the stress (bcs of time).
Congrats on a well made unique game!
This was different...in a good way. :smile: Also like the loading :duck:! :smiley:
It took some time with testing to understand how to build something and what (kind of) works. But I guess that was the whole point?
Really liked this game, would love to see more of it. :potable_water:
I loved Nebulus back in the days! This is a nice reminiscence of that game. Had to play it "just one more go", so that is a good grade right there I think. :smile:
I would have loved to see some clearer directions on where you would die falling down, and where not. This could be solved with level-design also I guess. Also maybe adding time to the experience would "spice" the game up, making it so you can't linger around on a level too long. Of course sound and music would also have added some extra spice to the game but I understand that it's not always possible to add all you want in such a short time.
Congrats on a well made and fun game! :rocket:
Cool game! Fun idea and quite well executed in this short time.
I liked the jumping in to their minds-thing, although I once fell below the ground and was stuck there looking at their feet. :smile:
Hope you get the time to make it the game you wanted to do! (we all fight the time constraint-thing... :-/ ) :thumbsup:
Woho, I made it to the leaderboard! :rocket:
Fun classic shootemup with nice variety of both enemies and weapons (for this short time of LD)!
Although it felt more like a shooter in the space but with characters from the sea, perhaps add something to the controls to make it feel more "submariny"? Also hade some problems with lagging for one of the special weapons (the one that makes the screen red), but that might just be my computer. :shrug:
All in all a a very enjoyable game, congrats on making all of this so well in such a short time!
Fun game! At first I thought it was a boulder-dash-clone and then I realized you didn't have to clear a "level" before going to the next one. :smile:
Liked the music and the stress from the Rapture was nice! After a while the controls got a bit "slow" on my machine, but could be me though.
Congrats on a nice game! :joystick:
Nice kind-of-puzzle-platform-game-thingy! I really liked it and enjoyed the nice graphics and music/sfx also!
Sure, it would have looked nicer if the fuzzball actually rolled around when moved but that didn't take away from the experience.
Congrats on making a fun game! :smile:
Nice graphics and wonderful mechanics in such a short time!
Would have loved some music and nice(r) sounds, it would have added a-lot to the mood.
Congrats on a really nice game! :rocket:
Nice bullet-hell game! Loved it! I was glad I didn't have to click the mouse to shoot. :smile:
A few problems, it wasn't easy to understand what to do. Should I hit the "tentacles"? Should I hit the "monsters"? There was no feedback knowing if my shots made any difference. Then at "level 2" (?) the monster suddenly disappeared and I was left alone. Then a screen saying "Restart / Quit" (or something like this, I don't remember)
Also, I started playing this on my MacBook w. FireFox. I didn't understand what to do or what buttons to use. I later figured out you had to have a mouse to play (trackpad didn't work well :smile: ). The controls were easy enough once you understood what controls were used. :sweat_smile:
Well made game, I have always wanted to do a bullet-hell-game and this caught the feel of it with the gfx and the music I think. :thumbsup:
Loved the game! I do love those point-n-click games so this was right up my alley. Too short though :wink: but very well made for this game jam. Liked the humor and how it fit the theme. Also liked the art, felt like an old-school point-n-click.
Very well done, thanks for making it and us experience it! :smile:
Love the gfx, the art and the feel off the theme! Well done for such a short period of time. The effects are really fun.
Some effects are a bit too random for my taste and makes it a bit difficult to know what is really happening (oh, did I die? What? Noo...the meters keeps ticking hmmm)
Also as had been said before, sound would have been nice :-) And yes, it is possible to use the microphone and shout. I did that on my game.... :sweat_smile: Yeah I know, game jams really stress you out for time...
I also pressed the button I shouldn't, of course. Why else would you write something like that? :wink:
I got down to 429 before my rabbit screamed for mercy. :rabbit2: Thanks for making it and making us experience it! :smile:
Well made game in such a short time. A bit short but that is definitely understandable! :smile:
A nice humor/horror-game, not usually a fan of "sneak-around"-games but still liked this one.
Good gfx and well made audio, what's not to like? :wink: Congrats!
Nice little button-clicker! I have cramps in my finger now... :wink:
The sound and graphics was nice and added to the game.
A nice and interesting game you could invest some time in playing and trying out stuff.
It was a bit unclear what the different icons meant and some sound would have given the game an extra dimension I think. Also a bit unclear to how the theme fit the game..?
Hope you get the time to develop this further it seems to have a fun potential, congrats on making a nice game! (PS I did win :smile: )
Heeey, endless runners rule! And I'm nit saying that because I made one too... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Wow, you implemented a random/proc gen level? I thought of doing that but didn't think I would have the time to test all that out. So nice work on that! :thumbsup:
Drawbacks with rand/proc levels is that they are not always perfect and make it frustrating sometimes since you don't get the feeling you are given a serious chance to go further.
Really fun game, loved the graphics also, and really cool levler-gen! :rocket:
Nice game with interesting concept and well made sounds. Definitely a game I could play more than once. :) It feels like I didn't even have the time to scratch the surface in this game during the time I played it. You seem to have put a lot of things into it in this short time, impressive!
Congrats on a well made game, one of the better ones I have played during this jam! :ship:
Ah, another-one making "endless" falling games :smile:
I really enjoyed the game and the ambient bubbly sounds added to the nice feeling of it. I would have loved to see some more variation or challenge but in the time frame this was made it was a good and fun game. Also appreciated that the controls felt exact even though the "3D"-world could have made it a bit challenging seeing were the character is. :thumbsup:
Cool different game! Or rather relaxing and ominous... Too bad it is so short, it feel slike the game didn't even got set up so difficult to say how this would pan out. (Was it a dream? Was it a level in the game? Was it somebody high on drugs...?)
Congrats on the entry, you made something cool! :clap:
A stressing game that feels relaxing, good work! I made it to 43, have no idea if that is good or bad though. :smile: I was also hoping to be able to catch the stars, but alas they only floated past me. Enjoyed the music too.
It took some time to get hang of the controls but when I did it made more sense. I agree with the comments about a timer on the platforms, that would be a nice touch. I also didn't know I was going to run out of platforms, there wasn't an easy way of know how many I had left? Or did I miss that..?
Congrats on a wonderful game and being able to make it on a stressful game jam! :smile:
Interesting game and I got some nice Half Life-feels for it! Also love the theme interpretation.
But I also had problems finding how to pass the second door. Maybe I didn't search well enough? And yes, there is some glitch with the lightning, depending what way you lok it can go dark or light all of a sudden.
Cool game and feel, congrats!
Cool game! Nice and enjoyable to play, really relaxing even if one was swimming away from sharks. :smile:
Apart from what everybody already said (I haven't read all the comments so maybe theu already said these things also) :smiley: It would have been nice if you could hide from the sharks if you swam into sea-weed. And perhaps a mini-map.
Congrats on making a fun game! It was an enjoyable experience.
I loved the CRT-effects, and the 80s feel overall! Really liked to do research and to get further and further. The music also fit the theme nicely. I can see this getting built out really well as a really large exploration-game.
Well thought out and well done! :rocket:
Nice polished game with great graphics and music! In such a short time this is a feat! :medal:
Congrats!
Wheeew! I won! :sweat_smile: Quite fun game and I think it would be more fun PvP. For me I think it was a right balance of randomness with the "AI"-player. Also liked the graphics, the animations and the happy tunes! Made me think back to the childhood and the "retro"-games I used to play. :smile:
Congrats on making a fun game for this jam! All thumbs up! :thumbsup: :duck:
Really nice atmosphere and the feel of underwater! I liked the suspense of not knowing what was about the happen with that exciting music playing along...
...but unfortunately not much did happen, for me. After about objective 6-7 and about 10 minutes I gave up. Didn't get to fire any weapons or seeing any "enemies" only diving in the dark chasing objectives that didn't actually provide much.
I really liked the game though but it could need some more pace or some more actual action (like maybe you need to dig for some samples or something at each objective).
Well made in this short time and cool sounds!
Congrats on finishing a game in 48h! :confetti_ball:
A well put together game and I really liked the art/gfx. Not sure though if there was some foul play in it because I managed to hit all the red arrows on my first try...there should be some bonus-score for that, no? :sweat_smile:
Wow, this game is impressive! Both the concept but also all this stuff in this short time. A mix of "casual game" with some nice building-genre.
Most other comments have already talk about what could have been done also to perhaps make the game even better, so I will not repeat that here.
Congrats on an unique and excellent game!
Congrats on your first jam! Quite a feat to have a working game at the end of it! :smile:
I really liked the game and the hat-throwing, it felt really solid. Although sometimes the hat didn't got thrown the way I thought it would, you really hade to point in the correct direction. Maybe this was how it was intended though?
Well made graphics too bad audio didn't make the game, it would have added quite a bit to the feel.
Well done! :v:
Nice cute endless runner! Loved the art style and the music.
Some visual/audio feedback when hitting a stalagmite would have been nice. But the largest concern for me was the jumping, it didn't feel like it was in-synch with key pressing or rather maybe it didn't feel like the platforms were quite at a correct distance to how much Glim could jump.
Congrats on making this nice game and getting that nice feel of it!
I looove the "programmer" art in this game! I don't mean that in a bad way, don't misunderstand me. Nice idea and fun style. But for me unfortunately it was too difficult to jump between the different controls. Maybe could have started off on an "easier" level with the platforms and made it more difficult as it progressed? But it's not easy to find the right balance in such a short time, I know. Really liked the idea though, so congrats on making this fun (but difficult) game!
Fun game with an interesting twist! Liked the artwork and the colour-theme, also really liked the audio as-well (until I read in the comments how to enable it :smile: ).
I also found the controls a bit wonky, and I don't think I can blame all of it on me sucking. :wink: The level-design could also be improved, e.g. already from the start it was difficult to know where you should be heading as you couldn't see so far down. Maybe an arrow that points the way or something..? But I'm sure this is because lack of time and not having enough time to design the levels.
Congrats on making a great game! The comments are only nit-picking since the game is already so well made. :smile:
Nice theme and really liked the music! It got darker the deeper down I got, but picking mushrooms seems to make it lighter. I didn't quite understand what the numbers in the left corner symbolized?
Well made theme and interesting idea that could use some kind of better explanation/HUD or something I guess.
Nice little game were you need to run (or dig) faster than lava.
Only being able to dig down makes it more challenging. I did make it to the end once, in 36 seconds. :smile:
However it was quite unclear that I had reached the end, all of a sudden I just saw the text "Congratulations on your escape". Didn't see if I walked into a door, portal or something else.
Audio would have added a bit more to this game also, but I understand the time constraints don't always allow you to do all you want.
Congrats on this entry! :rocket:
Pretty nice game you have here! I like the idea and the gfx and music. Also the humor. I had some problems with the controls, at lvl 2 the character also got stuck in a corner and wasn't able to move. So some other controls I also think would benefit the game. Nice work guys!
Quite a challenging game and really nice gfx. Quite cool once you figured out what each thing does. Missed some music/sounds though.
OMG iz awesome! And it has unicornz! x2 the awesome! I really liked the idea here! But it really escalates quickly, maybe give some more slack in the beginning so that a n00b (yeah the other peepz, not me....) has a chance to get really hooked. But I lööööve the idea and the feel here! Well done good Sir/Madame!
Loved the aesthetics, 80's-outrun-synth! Fun combo of genres also. But the progression was a bit lacking, felt easy all the time. The questions were ridiculous though and could just have been "mumbo-jumbo". ;) Really well done!
@dwemthy; thanks for playing! Yes, it is a bit diffucult before one gets used to using both hands and brains (?) at the same time. We agree. But it also gets easier quite fast once you get a hang of it. Striking a perfect balance between difficulty was a challange for us, and a bit too short time to try out all types...
@swarrly; thanks for playing and thanks for the comment! Yes, those are all good valid points. Maybe we could add alternate controls to the once you suggetsed also...
@hanra; thanks @hanra! This comment makes @sawtan giggle of enjoyment, he sounds just like a little girl! With the hair, you might think he is one also...but his beard gives it away. ;-)
@pancakefriday; thanks for playing Mr Pancakes! (we love those pancakes we too, but we eat them at Thursdays like the viking savages that we are) Are you using only keyboard or are you playing with keyboard + mouse?
Thanks for the kind comment!
@loonydrope; thanks!! Really nice comment, makes our gamer-dev-hearts happy! Striking the balance of "just hard/easy enough" is always a challange!
Glad you like the :unicorn: , it was actually just a placeholder at first but it stuck somehow.
@gatinmnsok; thanks for playing and thanks for feedback! Yeah, if we would have had some more time to think about the game we might have chosen other controls. Seems it might not be the best option for a rythm game maybe...or maybe it is the perfect choice. We will never know. ;-) :musical_note:
@jyrms: thanks for playing please come again! ;-) We tried to make the game not to hard but it seems some people still have difficulty with it. A lot of our testers (friends/family) actually thought it was too easy...not easy to please all! ;-)
@psiv: wow, thanks for that detailed feedback! We tried to make the music so that you could concentrate on the schmup and only listen to the notes. But it could probably have done with even some more fine tuning. But the time constrain...and so on... :-) Yeah, we had bigger plans for the schmup with just what you mentioned and levels and so on, but again, tiiiiime we had not. :-)
@tigerj: thanks for the feedback! We think it is an excellent exercise of your brain this game! You will get smarter each time you play it! ;-) Finding the balance between too hard/just enough was a bit hard. Hmm, perhaps we should have made it even easier in the beginning. But fine tuing requires time, this we had not. =)
@szabe; yepp this is a real exercise for the brainz! It is also possible to only listen to the music and look at the schmup with some training. :-) We had some interesting times trying the game on different friends/family but after a couple of tries most of them managed to get to the end. But more fine tuning would probably have been better... If only we had a time machine. :satellite_orbital: Thanks for playing!
@mandarad; thanks for stopping by and trying it! Appreciate the feedback! :wave_tone1:
@infinitycore: yes, this is an exercise for brain and eye-hand-coordination! Thanks for your feedback! And we can assure you that we had top scientist, professors and musicians performing tests and other important stuff in labs wearing white coats (also safety goggles) who came to the conclusions: Yes, by George, this tune is FUNKY! @sawtan wrote and recorded the music, I'll check if he has some link to it... :-) :musical_note:
@awesomealliterationalliance: thanks for awesome feedback and nice team work of you! Our game is bringing people together! What's next, Noble prize perhaps??? ;-) It seems maybe our tests are not fine tuned enough and we perhaps made the game a tad too difficult too fast, so thanks for the info. We will consider it on our next game! :champagne:
Well made, looks really nice. Catching fish was fun! :-) Some music/sounds and progression to the game would have made it nicer. But I really like the aesthetics and would love to see more of this.
Say wooooooooot? Pinball AND tower defense? That iz craycray! I love it! Quite fast paced, especially before you get some kind of hang of it. I kind of liked that bit though, but some more visual help would add a lot more game play I think. Well done!
Cool game with interesting story. It kept me hooked for a while. However, as has been said before, I didn't understand the "timing choice" at first. It wasn't obvious and I thought it was some kind of bug. You should make this more clear somehow.
Also some more sound/music/ambiance would add a lot. Well done and with some fixes I can see this as a nice novella-type-of-game on the mobile that you would play instead of reading a book or something. :-)
Nice aesthetic slow motion stuff. Overall it was really great game. Only thing missing is some kind of info that the level has failed. Nice work!
Sweet game of skill and luck! Nice ambient feel. It was fun trying to get the turrets to destroy the blocks so you could pass thru. A bit difficult to see when the shield was up/down. Some more nice progression/levels and fine tuning this would be a really entertaining game! (well, even more I mean :-) )
Haha, loved the game and the music! Maybe a bit too easy, I got to work on my first try. Great work!
Liked the idea here! I can see this becoming a really interesting game to play. For the downsides I pretty much agree with the previous comments so I shall not repeat them. Well done! Keep up the great work!
I like the idea and the drifting together with the random dungeons each time. Some better handling/sliding of the car would add a lot. I believe there are already comments about the insta death and I agree to a point. But it shouldn't be too easy...I think it adds some challenge to the game. :) I think a bigger problem is it lacks a "game" element, score, progressions or something like this.
Fun and cute game, mu daughter also enjoyed it and played to the end. It took a while to understand that the ovens didn't have to get ready, just in and out. Some nice music on this and progression would made it an awesome game. My one complaint I guess is that I don't see how this fits the theme off LD41? This is quite a common game genre.
Cool game in the rampage-type-of-game-style! It was fun smashing and growing, but the appeal wore off after a while for me. Music was great, did you do it?
Oh, finally, a classic point&click text adventure! Wait, wat!? Yepp, this was a nerve wrecking, but somehow I had difficulty giving up. Hey, it's a cat with Scottish (?) accent. Difficult to give up. But I never want to play it again. Well, maybe just once more... :scream:
Interesting idea, quite fun! A bit unpolished and rough around the edges but I can see this becoming quite a fun platform/puzzle game. (The HTML5 embed seems to not load always)
Grandpa is in heaven now... =) Entertaining story with nice mood, graphics and ambient sounds! Did you also make the music in the title screen?
As a game though it was a bit lacking for me. I also don't see how it combines the theme of the Game Jam?
But really well done with graphics and mood!
Haha, what a nice little weird game, I love it! :-) Although it was a bit lacking and I didn't understand why I should turn into a shape. And who was chasing me, and why? Some nice music and sounds would add a lot also. All in all, entertaining! This is what makes GameJams fun!
