MAN i wish i knew about this game when i was rating, i love it so much, amazing :D
one of my favs. the models are goofy, and i love every bit of them. the chicken- i mean weapon i=was a great choice, and the audio brings feelings of farms. my only question is why are turtles on a farm (hey, i ain't complaining) really solid, polished entry, 2nd in my favorite entries
bro i remember seeing your post about this. i'll check it out later
nice game. saw a post about this when the jam was still going, and my expectations were surpassed, i am glad to say. you had great music, i loved the art, and the difficulty is frustrating yet fun. i couldn't get past the 4th stage (was that the last one?) and i don't know what the special attack was. i wish healing was added, but overall, nice job. one of my favs
nice. it immediately became clear what to do without instructions (the buttons on the side are helpful though). the difficulty grows at a good rate, and you don't realize that until it's too late. audio is great, despite no songs, the crystals shattering was super satisfying with the particles (there's too much actually but i love the sheer amount of particles) the character is simple, would work on that a bit more. also, i don't understand why once you destroy crystals you kinda get slowed down. nice feel, good entry
Fun: It's easy at first, but goes up in difficulty expodentially. I like how you are in a constant check between ammo, and the enemies.
Innovation: I see a lot of these zombie-mob-kill games a lot, so not very original in my opinion.
Theme: The theme conveys through nicely.
Graphics: Simple, yet elegant, and I always appreciate good pixel art.
Audio: Kinda reminds me of a scratch game and New Donk City from super mario oddesy.
Humor: Yeah i kinda agree with the last post
Mood: I don't really get where the mood is going, but I'm assuming dark and apoctalyptic, so you did good on that
Overall: Nice, it is a solid entry, and I like those. Nice and short gameplay, but it makes you wanting more of it. Nice work
yeah i kinda copied the template from the last comment, but i like that template
nice tile-based game. at first, i didn't understand what was going on, but then i saw the enemies. i like how the timer slowly goes down to the point where you can't win, but can flex your reflexes. art is cute and effective, nice game made in a few days. i would personally introduce enemies earlier, but still, nice job
maybe i'm easily pleased, but personally i love this. the ragdolls, the costumes (i used shrek), the sound effects from the annoying colleagues, it's all great. i especially love the text system. the scenario, unlikely as it is, is funny, the art is great (voxels are yes), and the office was well done. the apparent infinite supply of colleagues is a bit concerning, though (maybe we should dial 911 on that), but all jokes aside, great entry. thanks for suggesting this to me, i love it.
wow, that was creepy. nice entry, but personally i'm not a fan of creepypasta. the way the literal sleep looks is creepy, but that's what you were trying to do, right? nice job, personally I would like a more hands-on moving system, like arrows or wasd. personally, i think you should have opted out of the humor category, as this wasn't a funny game, but an entertaining one nonetheless. again, great work
almost full marks :) the game is simple to understand, kind of an fnf gameplay, and also, the graphics are so great! i love the choice of light and night, and the way you made the characters is awesome. really great entry, i would play it much more if i wasn't pressed for time. again, great work, you should feel proud of yourself (great music btw) also the funky mood was really funny but a great choice for theme.
my favorite game so far. audio is awesome, i love the text system, this game actually has a storyline, and the characters are elegantly simple. for songs that were made in a couple of days, that's really good. nice difficulty curve, and overall, really solid. only thing holding you back is the art, as the buildings seem to be lacking. again, amazing job, and i hope you get a good score :D
overall, it's not very clear what to do, and alt f4 isn't the best way to exit, as well as no audio present. however, for your first jam, nice job. i like the concept of delaying your fly from getting zapped, and it's kinda funny how it is so determined to die- i mean rest on the bug zapper. not one of my faves, but it does have it's strengths, as it was very innovative, and kinda funny as well
@melektaus thanks :D
@sodoj thanks. i did want to make some music, but the problem is i had school that day, but the game felt empty without it. i knew undertale music is ok, i've seen it in several youtube vids, but given the choice, i would make my own soundtrack. thanks for the feedback :D
@ronanrory thanks, that actually means a lot :), and i'll be sure to make some songs next time
@cakts thanks. i currently have unity downloaded, and with time, that will be my main platform. for now, scratch is it for me, but side note, i have made some game prototypes before, so i'm not out of the blue in game dev. i'm glad you enjoyed, and thanks for all the tips. i'll definetly use them :D
@jordantanner i mean that was unintentional, but hey, it's not an accident, its a feature. thanks for the feedback :D
@simba yeah unity is what i'm aiming for, but i could try game maker
@proxy-games thanks for the nice, long thought-out feedback. i really appreciate it :D i had school that day of the end of the jam, and i was in a bit of a predicament, so toby fox's music was the best I could do at the time, not knowing about all those free sound/music websites. that's why i opted out of audio, as that was all from external sources. thanks for the feedback, and i hope bitboy does well in scoring :D
@sinus yeah, i didn't really have time to fix that, but, with the entire playing field, i doubted it would happen often. the graphics, personally, i don't really like, as they were rushed, and i would have loved to add animation, but you can't win 'em all i guess :) i hope you enjoyed, thanks for the feedback :D
@arihan10 thanks :D
@tomssuli thanks. i was thinking of a score counter, but that meant a tutorial, and a 20-min tutorial on scratch takes me about 2 hrs but next time, i'll add scoring. thanks for the feedback, glad to see people enjoy my game (i'm currently trying to get into unity)
@jelch thanks for the feedback. personally, i'm going to switch to unity, as they have much more resources, but if i one day try godot, and like it, i'll use that instead. thanks :D
@zimny11 and @dannyk1994 thanks a lot :)
nice game. when i first started, a zombie spawned right on me, so that was confusing. the graphics are nice, but the background contrasts heavily with the entities, and the walls are very transparent, as well as the character having no animations, but the way he turns to shoot is pretty funny. solid entry. title screen was a little bland tho. nice work, you should feel proud of yourself. :)
