@wilson-taylor Sorry to hear that. I've tested on 3 different computers, on different browsers, web build seems to work ok. But you're not the only one who reported this, so I can only assume there is some weird bugs going on with gotm website itself. Unfortunately, it's out of my control, so I can only suggest trying the windows build instead.
@mao that's a good idea! thank your for feedback. :)
There's is something lovely and unexpectedly humorous in this game's janky controls and crude aesthetic. This is better than it looks at first!
This is ace! I like the non-conforming to any genre collection of mechanics - is it a text-game? is it a survival game? is it a clicker game? None and all of them - that's what's cool about this. Also the writing is earnest and sincere in a way that definitely clicked with me. Wow.
Interesting spin on all those infection sims that are so popular these days. I think the clean, clinical graphics fit this particular idea well. Would've like to have another twist in the mechanics, but it's fine being just this one very specific thing. Good job!
The idea - really cool. reminds me of hoplite and other light tactics games. Production - absolutely top notch, would not have any problem believing this was something that was ready to ship as a commercial thing. However, the level design itself is your weakest point. Seemed kinda samey and grindy. However, the overall thing is A+.
Cool idea, cool graphics, clean execution. Was a bit confused on what exactly 'fills' up the bar and what counts as 'collision', so couldn't get very far. But Good Job!
A game with a good sense of humour, but I think you could've put in even more jokes and gags! Stary skywas a bit distracting and made game a bit hard on the eyes.
OMG, this game is hilarious! This is amazing!
Couldn't play the game, some sort of bug or graphical glitch: https://imgur.com/a/ZMI9CDe
Classy, stylish, simple. Great jame entry! Great choice of protagonist - everyone loves Egg. :D
cant launch the game, get errors about missing dlls.
yup, no game in downloaded file.
Music is great, idea is very interesting and fresh. I have two gripes about the QoL things in the game. I really really hate typewriter effects on text animation. I can't read anything until it finishes. You have a skip button, but it doesn't really skip, just speeds up animation abit. Found it really frustrating. Also, having the font size change as I type was really distracting as well.
Well executed, but man is the game hard as balls...
No idea how the mechanics work, but I love it. Looks organic, surprising, puzzling, like a very stubborn painting tool or something :)
