Hi @xlekai, thank you so much for your feedback!
I was wondering what you meant by "not original design". As far as I know, it's a unique concept, and we made everything but the music and font ourselves :)
THank you for leaving the video @mateusboga! Will definitely help when we continue the development!
Alternatively, you should be able to quit with cmd-q on a mac - but not sure if that works
Amazing! Loved the graphics, loved the story elements, loved the atmosphere!
To give some criticism: I was never really sure what was happening, and why it was evolving in the different paths. Often it seemed like I only had one or two options to give it, and I didn't know what that lead to. Also, there were a lot of mechanics that seemed nice, but underdeveloped, and I think it would've been better to focus on one or two aspects (like feeding and evolving) instead of having all the things you guys did.
But surely an enjoyable game!
Loved the throwing mechanic! I think it would have been a great thing to focus more on. Was funny to walk with 4-5 sticks, throwing them towards the bonfire.
Thought the player was a little too slow, and didn't really find the game too challenging, as it wasn't even under the threshold at any point, but I liked the concept. Good job!
Amazing art, and awesome sounds! Some of the best sounds I've seen for a gamejam.
Loved the potion shader and the general graphics.
I could see where you were going with the gameplay, but I found the jump to be pretty frustrating, as it was hard to predict what way it would go. The camera was also hard to control. Apart from that, it was a great game!
Great graphics, and fun concept!
I think the music felt good considering the gameplay, but as sheinxy also said, it was hard to keep up with the game. I felt as if the asteroids spawned far to quick, and I didn't know which one were closest. It also took some time to learn the navigation, but I think I got it in the end.
Overall a fun game, but needed more tweaking before I wanted to play it multiple times.
Hello!
It's currently not possible to play your game - you have to upload the entire folder, not just the exe file :)
Hi!
As the other people has said, you should add a thumbnail to the game - and there's a bug with the top right cell.
I liked the concept, and I don't recall seeing anything quite like it, but it needs more work to be good. Right now, you can just spam the cells, which takes the fun out of it - and you know where the virus spawn, so it's too easy to prepare.
So great concept, decent execution, has potential :)
Great feedback, and awesome juice. I also really liked the sounds!
Some critique:
The hitboxes could be frustrating, especially the puddle(?) While I enjoyed the 3d graphics, I was initially disappointed as the opening sequence was amazing Not too innovative, as it's an endless runner.
Overall, nice polish, and especially good for a combo game!
Too bad you can't vote on story - so gave you a 5/5 on mood instead!
An extra hour spent on polishing would have gone a long way, but it was minor things considering the gameplay.
Nice litte game!
Some good things: Nice graphics for the plants, and soothing background (graphics and music) which fits well with the "meditative" gameplay. Interesting gameplay with the different plants, and the dilemma of doing too little vs too much. Great use of theme!
Some grievances: I found it hard to quickly read to text, and to easily distinguish the rotten/dry graphics from the normal graphics, which made it a chore to check *all* the plants. Game was a little too long for a gamejam, as it's late, I've developed all weekend, and there's alot of games to go through ;) This is probably a very subjective opinion, but I was "annoyed" that I didn't get to get all of the information. With a little less punishment, and maybe lowering the points needed by a small notch, I'd probably have stuck around to the end.
Overall I liked it, and played it 3 or 4 times.
Loved the level fading and the graphics! - and cool concept as well.
I never really understood the firespreading, or what killed the djinn, and the controls where a little wonky at times - also, sometimes the camera wasn't correctly centered.
Overall it looked amazing and very finished, and with a little more polish and clearification, it would be great!
