I can't believ you managed to do all this in just 3 days. Amazing!
There are a lot of little details: the rope intensity slightly changes when its climbable, the music, the importance of carrying too much ore, the hangover/party story, etc
I feel guilty not having time to finish thi one :s
The story is nice and fun, but the game has little gameplay.
Spoiler: I laught at the Batman joke.
Flawless victory!
Hehe, really, nice well rounded game.
The mechanic is simple, addictive and polished. The difficulty is just at its right point, you are powerful but your enemies don't give you a break.
My only crictics are:
-The tutorial text keeps appearing when I'm playing, it mixes with the trees and it is confusing.
-I can stay a lot of time in flying form, the color is all sucked up, but for no consequence. I would have expect dying of exhaustion or some kind of penalty.
-Is there any way to win or is it an endless survival? It is not much clear.
Quite a strange game you have.
The idea is interesting and the programmer art is lovely.
I would critic that the gameplay is quite repetitive and the kill sound feels like someone is knoking on the door.
Anyway nice implementation on the old school racing games map.
Very interesting and innovative idea.
Nice take on the theme.
The problem is that I have no clue of how well or bad am I doing, and I don't have any idea of how am I suposed to construct the poems.
I'm no native english speaker so my intuition for the right word combinations is unexistent
Nice and polished entry.
Nicely adjusted difficulty.
For just being a square, the jump animation withe the rotation feels pleasant.
As someone said, the 1st tutorial level is totally innecesary.
The moment it "teached" me that "A" went left was like.... really?
Very original and humoristic!
The sentences fade to fast, cannot read them!
Gallego power! xD
Nice but somewhat buggy sandbox.
It needs some lose/win conditions to be more engaging.
Nice try.
Wow! I wasn't expecting the ending at all.
Midgame I was thinking that the game lacked gameplay, but now I see that everything fits.
Maybe I would have used more of the previous character info (now it only uses the name) to have a more powerfull impact.
The world needs more games with message like this one.
A different thing to mention, I love the growth of the characters at each question, their answers are great and the music is great.
I will play again just to check if different characters give different answers to the same questions.
Amazing job!
I like the camera placement and the graphics, specially the map when lanes diverge.
The truck was nice too but lacked a little cohesion with the map.
Kids screeming in joy when I die <-- cool
The same when I respawn <-- strange
Control was a little unresponsive for my taste, but that added up to the feeling of crazy driving which I think it makes sense.
Good work.
Very original but sometimes its difficult to recognise enemies.
Love the voxel graphics and animations.
The llama sound is very funny.
The game is quite easy which is something not very common here.
This game is super bizarre in a good way.
I didn't feel I controlled the ninja when suddenly it jumped, but it fas funa and hilarious.
Very original and nice graphics.
I runned out of photo "amunition" and then died. How do you get more photos?
Amazing programmer art here.
Maybe there is too much waiting time between math questions.
The story is quite entertaining, and the voice acting is sublime. Specially when the nice girl talks and sounds manlier than the protagonist.
The close path does not always work for me.
Worked on the first level but not on the second one.
Nice mechanic idea anyway.
At the beginning I didn't get it. But then, I enjoyed it very much.
The mechanic and the amazing sound effects give me the feeling of being powerful.
Maybe you could add some bots? Unless the game gets very popular majority of the testers will find empty arenas.
I love those backgrounds, color and character style.
I instinctally press up arrow to jump so I felt some times.
Combat was a liitle unfair, if you wait for them to shoot you don't have time to jump, if you jump in advance they shoot up.
But overall the game is really nice.
Very nice and well rounded game.
Nice mood graphics and sound.
I got stuck after poisoning the food :(
Very funny game.
I like the fact that you can die smashed by your own robot.
The controls are simple and intuitive.
Once you shoot the first laser....Stress!!!
Loved the monster combination scenes.
Curious game and interesting theme.
If you could make the player lose it would be more engaging.
The mecanic is very creative.
avoiding projectiles is quite hard. I was expecting to be able to kill the cannons.
Text should be skippable
Nice!
Very intersting title.
Music really helps you get in the mood.
The way they talk is really funny.
The first time I just died because didn't pay much attention to the text.
Nice idea, it has potential.
Right now is just matter of adding or substracting numbers. But adding some special cards, maybe something as simple as inmunities or multiplicators would make for a nice game.
Nice retro looking graphics.
And I love the sound effects.
It's an humorous take on the RPG's but the unconventional weapon choice seems a little bit forced.
"Caught in the explossion of the spaceship!"
I loved that, so you must escape the battleship after you defeat the boss.
The music is really good too.
The feel of the movement could be improved. Sometimes you don't know when you will do a wall jump.
I like the balance of the difficulty in that game.
I couldn't keep track on the health and the game at the same time, so maybe the meter/health/whatever should be displayed over the infected ant?
I loved this game. Its fun and nice looking.
One annoying thing was the xbox controller, I expected the car to go to the direction of the stick, but it doesn't, it's specially frustrating when trying to go down.
Wow, this was tense.
There was a moment i found a bear on the pillow next to the kid and I felt scared, stressed and hurried to click it.
The only problem that I see is that it is not clear when you are doing right or not. I just died and I didn't know what I did wrong.
Mood is awesome, but it needs more sound
Nice idea and graphics.
My critic is that sometimes you can't do other things but wait, which is frustrating.
Really fun and nice art style.
The bad guy peeing is hilarious.
Nice idea. I like that all level's I've seen have 2 exit doors, either way It would be quite easy to solve the puzzle, and this way, you have to decide which is the viable one.
The first time I played I didn't notice I spent all amno, so some feedback would be nice.
Also It would be nice to have a workaround so you don't need to reset the room yourself when stuck.
Is there any way to beat the game?
I love the pencil drawing style of the buttons and the whole map itself.
Curious and fun game idea.
The QTE gameplay was a little bit repetitive.
This game is very addicting.
Sometimes it feels unfair, when you kill your last enemies and you cant get away of respawn area before it kills you. I wish I could move faster in those situations.
Nice job overall.
I love the idea and the use of the theme.
The game was somewhat difficult, but since it is a survival its ok.
The AI sometimes does not very smart moves, like having the grail next to the exit and passing it to a guy near the blade.
Very intelligent use of the theme.
I'd like to be able to skip the initial text once you fail and restart
Nice idea and personality.
The buttons could have some sound feedback when pressed.
Very impressive piece of work for just 1 guy.
And the idea is cool.
IA using elevator and all, kudos ;)
It's a pity that you couldn't finish the sound.
The game is quite stressful (and coin clicking is hard to get right)!
I liked the message and the game feels very polished.
It took quite a long time to load (web version).
The characters are funny and I liked the game being inside a stomach.
Some feedback on hits would make the game feel better.
Wow! My instant favorite, seriosuly.
I love the music, the animations, how some of them "fight" with both hands. The names of the characters, and the rythm mechanic.
Is amazing how something as easy as a copy the pattern game, with the RPS modifier becomes something that cool.
The only thing I would say is that there is a point wher you don't want to memorize so many movements and its almost imposible to play just reacting at what the show you before they "hit".
It would be amazing if your character had also dance moves in the long combos as the enemy has.
Thanks for your feedback. The random really needs more work, but we ran out of time.
We experimented with visual feedback on remaining distance but we ended up erasing it.
The idea was to crush enemies with the impulse you give to the pieces but we didn't have time for it, so we are not expecting really high scores for the theme.
Hehe I should have noticed the music thing when I was stopping the game to hear something when talking on Skype
A mobile port should be fairly easy to do (at least on android, which I could also upload on itch.io)
Wow! Didn't know this game at all (now i have to play it), and the concept its the same.
In fact we wanted to do the typical ninja scene where the protagonist climbs through falling rocks that appears in so many movies/animes, but the physiscs were so floaty that we changed the theme to something underwater.
Very intersting title.
Music really helps you get in the mood.
The way they talk is really funny.
The first time I just died because didn't pay much attention to the text.
Ups, I put you the comment of another game. My apologies. Now the right one:
I didn't expect a graphic novel seeing the screenshots, all this drawings make the game more interesting.
The situation described is quite surrealistic but fun.
I always thought of a game where humans were the aliens, in fact is one of the themes I suggested for this LD, so I love the setting.
Then a bullet came from nowhere and I died in the library I didn't enjoy that part so much.
Its nice that you doubled the game.
The sound was cool but It was strange to hear the fireplace sound through all the map.
I plied with AI's and it is quite easy. But I see the local versus potential.
Have you consideres suporting xbox controllers? Because 4 people in 1 keyboard can be such a mess.
I hope you finish the game.
I liked the story very much.
The clue system was well thought but hard to notice it's there at the begining.
This is a well rounded game with a very nice art style.
The difficulty was really easy, which I think is good.
I've rated to many games that I couldn't beat, but I finished this one.
The arrow sound is wll found.
Graphics are cute, and I loved pissing the cat and its sound.
I have the feeling that the arrows shooted lower to where I aimed.
The bones sound is really nice.
The map has charisma and the movable objects give life to the game.
I didn't quite get how to play, thou. Is the second player a must? I played alone.
I've tried again with an xbox controller and got it (last time i didn't read your explainatory comment, maybe you can modify the description).
I found difficult to see things to pick. Dash has a little lag.
Nice graphics and animation.
Its fun to destroy props with the pillow.
I destroyed a wall and then I jumped into the void...
Didn't get the game mechanic until the 3rd or 4rth try.
Loved the graphics.
Well rounded mechanic.
I wish I could pause because there is too much things going on.
I would like to be able to click on a stone to remove it. Sometimes the characters ignore stones and just pass.
Fun game. I enjoyed the recoil of the machine gunn and killing 3 enemies in one shot with the laser.
When the character screams it reminds me of Jake from Adventure Time.
I killed myself many times xD
Very fun and original
Nice particles
The color combination weapon is a lovely mechanic.
I think it would work well with the xbox controller and the 4 color buttons.
about the difficulty....I think its almost impossible to combine the colors, shoot and jump at the same time.
I made so little points that I wanted to skip the: "enter your name" screen.
Nice little detail of having two scores already set, soplayers have a target to defeat.
Wow! that one's difficult as hell and It runs very smoothly. Congrats!
The fruit gun feels very well to play.
The physics (specially the water pistol) act a little weird.
Its hilarious to shoot backwards.
Awesome music and funny graphics.
Sometimes the controls are not super responsive, but they are originally designed.
Very original concept. A little bit frustrating thou.
This is a well rounded game.
There is a lot of effort on the map for such a short jam.
Some sound would have benn nice.
One of my favourites this LD. Really.
Things: All the destructible elements are on the ground, leaving the rest of the screen quite empty. More destructible things in the building would make the game more interesting.
No win or lose condition.
I really would play a game like this if finished.
I see multiplayer madness potential in this game.
Nice game! Loved the animations!
I'm going to try those dance moves next time I go out!
Very complete game, as always!
I had a bug where npcs got scaled in Y and my character got strange rotations. Just after finishing the kill 5 people quest.
Very creative and well round.
How can, something that boring (I mean the job), be so addicting?
The sounds were perfect also.
Kudos: Blasfemy level over 9000!
I little bit more interactivity would have been nice.
Very polished game and the visual feedback in the bloodbar is excelent.
The game mechanic doesn't need explanation.
So congratulations!
Amazing game! Very polished (you nailed the scope of the game), clear mechanic and the most imporatnat, I actually had fun with it.
I would love to play this with different recipes of Ramen.
Nice one!
The art is nice and the music is bad ass!
Sometimes happened to me that after holding the shoot button and releasing it, the gun starts shooting non-stop
At the begining I thought the game was too simple, but destroying houses became addictive.
The art side is solid and I wasn't expecting at all a level up system.
The movement controlls are a bit strange but they feel intuitive.
It remembered me this Trogdor game:
http://www.homestarrunner.com/trogdor.html
Nice entry!
I lost because and ice cream melted, awesome!
Couldn't get the controller working so It was a bit hard to play, but the concept is amazing
A monster feeding on their monster offspring, that's quite creepy!!
Nice job!
Amazing!
I love the art style (cute and modern) and the perspective of the camera.
Also the finish counting friends scene makes it feel very polished.
The only problem that i found is that the map navigation sometimes is a bit fustrating, encountering obstacles that won't let you move as you wish.
Also the boundaries of the mapa are too artificial.
Anyway, I liked the game a lot.
The best programmer art I've seen this LD.
Hahahah the music is amazing!
Some sound would have helped.
Nice one!
Complicated but the mechanic felt robust and well thought.
I feel thet seing someone play skillfully at this game must be an acrobatic spectacle.
I wasn't expecting to see a bullet hell in this LD.
The game transmits a sensation of epic fight with so many things flying arround at the same time.
Enemies were hard to spot and slow to engage sometimes.
Bullets don't seem to arrive when they are far but in sight.
Nice!
It looks like your dropbox account is not working right now. :s
It looked very simple at first (level 1 monster vs level 1 ship is always the same fight) after this it gets trickier.
At the beggining I didn't know what to do because it is not clear that you have to select a tentacle to bring up the menu. This could be automatic.
Also agree with a coment below that says that it would be important to know the next human that will move.
Anyway, good job!
I really like the vibe of this game, It totally captured the wasteland survival thing and the gameplay is simple yet addicting.
Also the color palete fits very well.
I'm working on a game with a similar concept of car crashing, maybe it's interesting for you:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=455689246
Good job!
The mechanic is original and nicely implemented.
The best art and animations I've seen so far.
Also its very addictive and has a nice sense of humor.
You have to be a true monster to caress that nose!
I lol'd a lot with this game..
I really liked the narrative of this game.
I wasn't expecting the end! (Which gets extra theme points)
Its nice to be able to play jam game from begining to end.
The troll with tie was a nice touch.
The only thing I feelt could be better is the combat system.
It was too simple, though I liked that you don't run out of bottles.
Nice job!
Very polished game.
It would be nice that the sight cone representation would be altered with the walls.
Wow, I wasn't expecting a board game at all!
Very original way of living the LD experience!
This s**t is better than lots of the games I have on steam!
Super polished & perfectly scoped and with enough content to be enjoyed for quite a long time.
Kudos!
Very polished and fun entry.
During the first try I was trying to catch them on the fly because I thought they sky faster than you run (just ate 1). But then I started chasing them and I loved it.
This one needs reflexes from the very begining.
It would be nice to have some different sounds to make you feel like you are doing some king of music.
I loved SimTower as a kid, and its very well implemented.
Maybe the stairs graphics are too colorfull bot everything else fits perfectly.
Nice and simple.
I liked that each monster had its own minigame so you are not only waiting to fall on the water.
The music is so intriguing!
The props lightning felt a bit strange and the fighting could have been better comunicated but I liked the game and the monsters.
Wow! This one feels like a finished game.
I liked the posibility to live as a ghost and activate traps even though I've lost.
The tutorial is really easy to understand.
Having bots for the single player is a nice detail, I know its not easy.
Noob question of the day: how do you get to customize the itch.io site like that??
Snowfight + monster = So inocent and original!
The particles made it difficult to see the snowballs though.
Voice acting should improve though the "bip! bip! bip!" moment was hilaroius.
The marker doesn't give you a proper sense of distance.
The rest of the game feels very polished and smooth.
This game is plain awesome!
The voice acting is sublime.
The jump + wall jump controls are very polished
Lots of content: map elements, enemies, cat gun!!!
The criticism I would give is that some map elements are hard to see, like the black bouncing tiles.
Also the enemies could try to shoot at you, not just move randomly and shoot whatever direction they move.
Anyway, there is a lot of stuff there, and considering the little time we had, its amazing.
Quite crazy! Imho, I would have let the hunger bar grow when you are skipping babies (because you are not eating) so you are in a hurry to skip faster to get to the babies.
As it is now you always have the same amount of time to react to each "turn".
Also it doesn't make sanse to satisfy the hunger while you are not eating.
Very interesting way to handle defeat when the first time you "don't understand".
I was expecting to be able to jump faster once landed, this cost me some deaths.
Hehehehe I knew this one would be a difficult one, so thanks for your patience and comprehension.
I was a bit unsure on the reaction to this mini game, but I'm glad we did it.
Quite fun! And nice stamina mechanic.
Don't feel like the monster at all.
Nice graphics and lots of details, like touching the cat.
The mechanic is a little bit confusing. Destroyed 3 towns but didn't earn skill points.
Is it even possible to survive?
Great atmosphere.
The city sim management is quite simple, but the sacrifice selection moment is magific.
Congrats because the game idea is one of the most original I've seen around.
Hey! We got the same control schema in our games (not alone anymore) ^_^
Because of that I feel like cheating or something hehehe
Anyway, nice game, I see there is a lot of effort with those different game modes (sea and battle) and the popups and stuff.
At the begining, deciding sex and stuff I was affraid the game contained tentacle porn or something like that j/k
Funny thing!
The perspective of the princesses vs the perspective of the rest of the game is pure programmer art! ;)
I liked the detail of always knowing the status of the prince and how it is affected by decisions, it made the experience feel more game-ish.
Nice first entry, congrats!
Nice art, specially the pixelated moon, but I think that the controls need more polish.
A little more air controll would be great.
Differentiating the obstacles from the rest of the background would help too.
Have fun!
The art of this game reminds me of The Oatmeal webpage, which is good.
The controls are quite good too.
When I felt into the lava, the camera keept moving down slowly and I could see the limits of the map.
The enemies are to high to jump for my own taste.
Nice job!
Lots of stuff in this game.
The npc's are too litle and statick though.
I love the theme
Amazing art, easy to grasp gameplay and lots of fun.
Simply amazing!
I wouldn't expect less from you guys.
Very stylish. The art direction is something I've never seen in games, but I don't imagine nearthentals drawing about the CTRL key :p
Couldn't agree more on who is the monster here.
I wish real bullfighting would be that unforgiving because the game is really difficult.
The game is very original and the graphics are cute, but the game is quite confusing.
Nice game!
Sometimes its difficult to make the story advance.
Amazing game!
I've been seing it in some favourite lists and I couldn't play untill now. The wait was worth it!
It would be nice that it reminds that you did the tutorial so each start there is a different challenge!
Simple yet addicting. And very polished.
And the music is 6 over 5 stars
Nice character art, epileptic background and retro sounds. Everything kills you with 1 hit, so in my opinion there is little risk in sacrificing life for upgrades.
It plays super fine in a touchscreen. It was difficult to tell how damaged an enemy was. At the begining I was shooting to an enemy and I thought it was inmortal or I should shoot from different angle.
I played on a windows surface
Amazing! This game is super crazy. The best russian rulete I've ever seen. Better than exploding kittens hehe
The idea of being a less expensive coin each time is cool. At some point the coin gets bigger. Its weirs, I guess in your country it makes sense, but for me I would have expected the coin to always get smaller or change color. Maybe if all cons had the printed value... Don't know.
About the physics: Its cool when it accelerates in the slopes, but the jump feels like it is underwater.
I hat trouble moving stuff between layers. The game concept is really cool. Why don't real doctors rotate organs to better organize space?
This is the most original take on the theme I have seen so far.
The gameplay is quite simple but works like a charm. The music and the frog sounds are super moody.
The art is very good too.
The only thing I found strange is this combination of time pressure and puzzle. Also at the beginning I didn't know what makes the character star moving. Now I know it is moving 4 tiles, but it is quite arbitrary and is not explained anywhere. (if it is I didn't notice :p)
I found the game very original. It's not the best use of the theme I've seen but I enjoyed the game a lot. Also the box art with the cute eyes or the moster face is super amusing. Kudos for adding a tutorial.
The game is very polished and works well. Artifacts could be easier to see. Maybe different card layout?. I agree with all the comments that playing all cards is the winning strategy. Maybe add more risk/reward cards?
Congrats, the game is super smooth and the world is well designed. I know there is no time for much art, but changing the floor texture color to diferentiate the different areas would could have been cool. The jumping is a little bit floaty, but the air control works fine. The shadow is nice, but for a 3D platformer a simple dot shadow just below the character is more helpful in regards on where the character will land. Cool music. Also I liked a lot how the enemies perform their attacks. Its very easy to understand.
Motivational poster and agile seminar for the win.
Love the art and the squared island. The click sound was cool too. Didn't understant much the lose condition. What does it trigger the countdown?
Hi! Congrats for this entry. The game is very intuitive to play. It had fun when I had to hurry to finish lunch because there was work to do. And the words that you had to type were the typical meeting jargon of my office. I'd like to be able to chose between two options. Because If not, I feel that the fun/money score ratio that I will get is quite random.
I'm not much into grindy trading games. But the artwork is very nice. It reminds me of Monkey Island
Very intuitive. I liked the gameboy feel of the game. Also the puzzles were interesting.
Hahahahaha this game is awesome guys! I love how the voice and the music merge together. It's the best part.
The gameplay is addicting and easy to grasp. I felt the difficulty was in the sweet spot.
This game could have been rythmic (if it is I didn't notice, but I tried to play at the same pace as the music and it was fun)
The intro scene is amazing and disgusting at the same time.
The sounds when hitting neurons give good feedback.
One of my favorites so far!
Nice atmosphere and the verb actions were quite logical. But If you mess up the order of the words you are screwed. I couldn't find a way to remove or reorder words.
Ok, I tried and it works, thank you. I didn't think on doing that. Also it is counter intuitive to move words that I got from the main text to the WordBank to be able to modify the order. I know it is small time for the jam, would it would be great to be able to just reorder words in the prompt.
The game is fun and the life/bullet mechanic is easy to understand. Good job. Its difficult to se the characters in the background. I would reduce its contrast. Also the invisible collision walls maybe shoud be placed ad the edge of the screen.
The art is very similar to pixar :s
I'm not into text based adventures but this one is very intriging. Good job! (haven't succeded yet)
Hi! It's cool to see similar card games. I like that the game is similar to ours but focusing more on the summoning and trading creatures. The game works fine, so congrats.
The UX could be better. I understand that you had little time for the game, but here you are some feedback.
+Just starting the game I expected to be able to summon some creature. I couldn't because I had to press space to go to a different phase. Could you implement the same game without manually handling the phases? Maybe like hearthstone where you can summon and attack in any order during your turn.
+Why can I only summon 1 creature in my turn? It's not stated anywhere. I wanted to summon anything on my hand. I had the "mana".
+Life is difficult to see. Too small. It would be more familiar if the characters were in the left.
+There is no clue to see that a creature is damaged.
+Was it necessary to visually show the draw and discard pile? It doesn't affect gameplay and produces confusion. Can I draw cards there?
+The orange/brown background color was a little bit dull.
+And, as other people say, more feedback would be welcome. Zoom, movement, etc
The game mechanics are very original but I was so focused on doing the summon and potion combos that didn't pay much attention to the fighting. Also, It is difficult to understand which is the strength and weaknesses of all the friend/enemy units. The alchemy part was cristal clear.
Very nice. Super moody game, and amazing setting, with the table, the cards, the rain, etc.
It remembers me of the phone game Underhand.
The worst part for me is that I didn't know what to do to get a better score. The scoring felt random to me.
Who needs music? hahahaha, that's what happened to us. The game was very funny. Nothing special gameplay wise but It has charm and the options were fun to read. It is difficult to notice the numbers on the bottom left, didn't care much about them and won anyway. For one side its cool that it is easy(usually game jam tittles are hellish) by the other hand I would have given more importance and visibility to this stats.
The mood is perfect. The gameplay is very simple and quite good. At some point at lost because I sacrificed my last card to his last card and I though both were going to draw (and I had more cards). So it's even more complex than just going for the most beneficial maths.
Nicest thing ever.
Movement feelt right, but I didn't know what to do.
I don't think it is necessary to show life with 4 decimals.
I didn't have the patience for a full run but I tried all the minigames and I liked them a lot. Nice sense of humor there. Graphics are also cool. And the User Experience is super good, at any moment I knew how to interact with things.
The only strange thing was that the minigames yoy could win or lose but it didn't seem to matter much.
Also, the press intro to exit looks like it only works during an specific time window between tries which is weird.
This is a very well rounded and polished game. Feels finished. The graphics and color palete have their own style. The controls are great. But some mechanics are not clear enough. I could use orbs to make sheeps follow me, but why I need more than one? Also the truck timer looked like a timer to end the level at first.
The game looks cool and has gameplay that is worth playing but I agree that the UX is not the best.
Appart from what have already been told, I was expecting to be the guy on the left fighting something in the right. It's something a gamer takes for granted.
When the life bar is full it looks just like a piece of background art. It took me a while to find out it was a life bar.
It is not clear what enemies can I attack when there are 2 lanes.
First time you play and have to summon an enemy it is not clear which type of unit it is (melee, ranged, flying)
I love the hippy rabbits :D
That totally makes sense.
@dk5000p Thanks for your feedback. Yup! sound was a miss! About the randomness is something we experimented with. At the end we decided to go to fully deterministic. But there is a lot to experiment in that regard.
@kunonooni Thanks for your motivational post. We put a lot of thought into the card interactions. Different AI's with different card pools would be cool. Right now the AI is inexistent it just throws cards at random. Early access is something I'd love but I don't know if I will be able to update it frequently enough.
@jin47 ^_^ I'm so happy form the wining game of the jam. If it wasn't for the life is currency thing, this game wouldn't be half as interesting. Thank you!
@kpedatte Thanks! Multiplayer would be cool. Implementing multiplayer is way too scary right now xD
@copito Thank you very much. Yes, you can win the game 50% of the times just playing randomly (because is what the AI does). Anyway, as an excuse for that, it is fine that people can beat the game with 1 or 2 tries. It heps testing the game.
@ristoretto Love to see people post their crazy combos! This game could perfectly be a roguelike with deckbuilding. Thinking of it.
@cheebz I'm glad you enjoyed making choices in our tinny card puzzle. Having always interesting options was our intention.
@craftlord Thank you for your kind words. It is cool to see people enjoying the experience. Sounds should be the first update.
@yaen Wow! Such an extensive feedback. Thank you. The art part that you liked was done by my friend Pau. I did the one that you didn't like xD. It is very generous to call what we have AI hehe. But I'm pleased that you enjoyed the puzzle side of the game, I enjoyed designing the game that way.
@borys Thanks for playing and writing, and welcome to the guild of card game makers, hehe. We will have an artist for the next jam.
@ithildin Thanks for playing and being on the side of the puzzle/deterministic game lovers. I know Ana told you about this game. Saludos! ;)
@banzi Thank you. Progression will be the first step should we decide to keep working on the game.
@hildebrandt Thank you for playing. Making the enemy next move public is part of the vision, but we would like to work on some AI that makes more interesting choices.
@mooseandloon Great that you enjoyed. We didn't get the right shield vs steal life mechanic working until the last day. I'm glad it works.
@thiefviolinist You are the first one to notice our amazing card names. Thank you :D
@pablotitan More necromancers! Steal their shit. Megaman style. That's for sure our next step.
@tempii It's cool that people comment and suggest LD games between us. Thanks to that, and seeing your comment I discovered yours. What can be cooler than card games about necromancers?
@rmleverton That's right, the game is too easy. But for now, it is cool for a jam entry so people can play, win and enjoy it. Thanks for playing.
@coleslaughter Yup! Big fan of Slay the Spire and Into the Breach here. The summoning cards are tricky to explain given that we wanted short card descriptions. Maybe it makes you want to play for a second time once you know? We will have to thing about it. Hehehe, playing around with card values and costs is our secret sauce.
The game is fun. Extra points for using Defold engine. White walls could be prettier. Regarding the frozen objects, it would be more fun if you have to throw particles to them, thus moving in the oposite direction.
I had a bit of trouble moving organs between layers. But the game is original and I love the concept. Why can't real doctors just rotate stuff so its better organized?
The game is a little bit slow for my taste. Anyway, nice well rounded entry. Also love the programmer art. Paint power!
Very nice little shooter. It is simple but works like a charm. Special kudos to the controls, I like how the ship moves.
I didn't feel the theme was incorporated at all until I read the game description. It could have been more evident.
Hi, the movement was a little sluggish (compared thith the enemy bullets) but the concept of killing enemies making their bombs explode is brilliant. I liked it very much an it is very original. About the upgrades, It's cool having so many options but I didn't know how much money I had to pay the initial upgrades. I lacked context at this point of the game. I also liked the idea that upgrading the game was like a minigame but it was not very clear why was I playing that game or what would happen if I lost.
The art and the music are cool too. Congrats!
Nice game. I don't get the mana thing either. The map art is poor compared to the cute character and cactuses. Anyway, the game plays very nicely. Also thanks to upload a web version of the game.
Very immersive, I imagine the music and sound help with it. The game reminds me of Faster Than Light. I liked the art very much.
The initial zone art is outstanding. The dunegon not so much. Couldn't kill the boss but had a great time playing.
Its nice that you put the effort to illustrate all the cards. The music and sounds are relaxing. I'd like to have an objective to beat, if not, just doing an score feels a little bit dull.
PD: I helped charity at the age of 7 and invested in the stock market at 15. xD
Very nice game. The only drawback I see is that its difficult to understand the strenghts and weakneses of each unit (friendly and enemy)
