I really like the art style that you went with, I don't know why but it reminds me of the old cyanide and happiness comics. I also like the bonus screen. One problem that I had was that some of the days felt like they were too long, but I don't know if that's just because there was no music.
Loved the art and sound design. Not really much to say about game-play wise, but not all games need to be super in depth.
Lot of fun to play, and after a bit of messing around found it easy to pick up and play. Art was also good, really liked the design on the monster. I did have a weird bug though where the ui would overlay on itself and become illegible , most often this was with the workbench ui.
Love the art style and it was a lot of fun to play, although some combinations of keys felt kinda cheap as they are physically impossible to do.
Good job. Had fun beating this. Would be great to see you consider expanding this in the future to update the art and add new levels. Only complaint is that I don't understand the timers on when people move into their homes, some homes are a lot faster than others, not sure why.
Really fun game that fits well with the theme. Kept wanting to go at it again and again to see if I could win. My only real complaint it that your deck almost feels stacked against you sometimes where you dont get any buff cards till the bottom of your deck. Probably could be eliminated with some sort of mulligan system for your starting hand.
Woops, I think your link is broken
I really like the art for this game and it had a good idea for the gameplay. Unfortunately it was a bit too hard for me to handle using w and space for going up while also using wasd for movement, but this might just be a problem for me.
I really like the concept and it has a lot of potential with some balance updates in the future, but as of right now, it really easy to just stick with two cards that cancel each other out, leaving you at max stats the whole game.
@darylsteak Thanks! I was considering adding a skip button into the game but unfortunately ran out of time. I'm glad that you liked what you got to play
@secretmapper I will have to check that out!
@mcovert I will keep that in mind for future versions. I sometimes forget that other people haven't been staring at my design docs for the past 48 hours on what buildings actually do, woops. Oh well, things to work on for next time.
@wdelvi fair, it is pretty text and rules heavy. Likely wouldn't have been as bad if I had added tooltips to the buildings, too late now though. Thanks for checking it out at least.
@pkenney Thanks for posting such a in depth critique of my game. I agree with a lot of the points you made and hope to do better in ludam dare 44 next year. Making sure to including more visual and audio feedback is likely going to be higher on my priority's and I will also try to scope down a bit more so I have more time for polish. Again, thanks for your feedback! :v:
Fun silly little game. Feels really good pushing a large group of sheep into the whole. I did find a bug though. I was not able to die. Regardless, with some bug fixes you got a good baseline here.
So funny. Great game, look forward to seeing what you make in the future
I looks like the link to your itch.io is broken :(
One of my top games I have played so far, good job. Never seen someone sacrifice keys in that way before, really unique. Would be cool to see additional enemy types.
