Like a lot of people, we got stuck in Pass the River. Music was very nice, sound effects weren't too harsh (good job). Art style was adorable and very well made! These puzzles were super cool, I just wish we could've played more!
popertots (:
Super neat art style! Are you supposed to be able to fight things without any cards on the board, because I didn't understand the shop layout at first, and ended up accidentally farming coins for a while without using any cards. Would be super cool to see some environments (obviously super hard to pull off for a jam). Groovy music, would like some more tracks for different encounters, maybe based on difficulty?
Well done, you two, this game rocks. Music was a pleasure to listen to, and the mechanics were incredibly versatile. Great level design and art, too. Personally, I struggle to remember what directional button does what when a game goes isometric, so it might be handy to label the in-game indicators with WASD/UpDownLeftRight.
Super fun idea and very chill vibes. It would be nice to have a button that lets me spin the shapes faster, as waiting for a shape to rotate all the way back around isn't very engaging. Very well done!
Could be really cool, but the patching holes idea wasn't clear enough. The sound effects were pretty goofy (good stuff). Music wasn't bad, just a bit repetitive.
I think that the concept has potential, but the polish needed to pull it off just was not there. Focus on making your world fun to move around in first, and then get around to things like music, graphics, advanced mechanics and the like. Valiant effort, keep practicing, I want to see you get better!
A very entertaining interactive joke that I thoroughly enjoyed. Only got to the bit with da janky hitboxes, so I don't know how much goodness I missed out on.
@kkbf123 You woke the Black Spire. Well done. Thank you so much for playing, we are thrilled you enjoyed it!
@big-play-ben Oh my god you are going to make my heart melt that is some high praise :DDD Thank you so much for playing!!
@yuko I guess I'd prefer too hard over too easy, thank you so much for playing!!!
@osh-studio The character design was a complete happy accident, we couldn't be more happy that it turned out like that! Thank you so much for playing and reviewing!
@aevek I'm so glad you thought it was paced well, we were really worried about that and making sure it wasn't overwhelming and your feedback means a lot! Thank you so much!!
@ivysly We are going to cry from all these wonderful comments, thank you so much for the review!!!
@cad Thank you so much for the playthrough and review!! We're really glad you liked the aesthetic, going 1-bit(ish) was definitely the right move in retrospect.
@rubr We're glad you enjoyed it! Gus and I are very pleased with how it came out, and seeing all these incredible comments is probably the most wonderful experience a game dev can have. I see that you have your own game that looks pretty killer. I'm about to go check that out now.
@zain Thanks for playing! This was my (Braeden) first time trying to do pixel art and music for a full project, so it's really encouraging to see others enjoying it! Gus helped me out with some software tips and taking care of the tile set and a couple tracks of his own.
@rufson We appreciate you taking the time to check W O B B L E out. We lost so much sleep to this project, and the amount of homework I have to catch up on is ridiculous (Gus was responsible and managed to get it done before hand), so we're glad it was worth it. After Sun looks killer, I'm looking forward to playing it!
@javasaurus Hey there. I hope you know how important your comment is to me. The whole reason I'm in college for Game Design and participating in this Jam is because of the intense emotions tied to memories of playing games with my father in wacky ways. To see that something I helped to create gave someone else the opportunity to create those memories is beyond incredible. I will likely be framing your comment and setting it up in my workspace. Thank you so much for playing!
@vectrex28 You're incredible! Thanks for playing our game, we really appreciate it! It gets hard after a while to say thank you in different ways, but I mean every word! Also, sick Metroid profile pic, it's my favorite franchise of all time.
Some of the textures could use some work in terms of getting them to connect with one another. I was intrigued by the story, but the long death animations and punishing respawns combined with some rough platforming made it hard for me to get through. Very nice music!
The visuals are insanely good, and all the animations are super nice. Unfortunately, the gameplay wasn't as engaging as I'd like it to be. I wish there was some kind of challenge other than trial and error. Thank you for submitting this, it was certainly a neat experience.
But really though, well done. This game is gorgeous and the loop is super entertaining, and the incidental humor from accidentally killing survivors is really good. I think the only thing that needs a little bit of work is making the collection phase a bit more engaging. Thanks so much for making this, it was a blast!
It was rather hard to tell what type of particle I was looking at, and the HUD in the top right was a bit confusing. I think that the concept was super neat, and the approach was 'almost' there, the controls just needed to be a bit more intuitive.
Music is fun and the concept has potential. Some more visual feedback for damaging enemies would be nice, and more variety with the enemies would really push this game to some interesting heights!
Very interesting idea, but it's just snake. I'm sure a lot of effort went into it, and you should be proud of your accomplishment. Keep making games, please!
Very good and nice (:
I'm glad to see you putting yourself out there despite some very obvious flaws. That takes courage. I enjoyed the color choices for your environments, and I got really excited when I saw black and red for the area after the Nail Boy fight. Work on providing more visual feedback to the player for things like damage, and of course patch up those game breaking glitches. Just a heads up, the player can move Uki during the opening cutscene. Keep working at it, don't give up!
The environment art was very pretty. I could not hear the music that people are talking about, but it looks like that's been covered already. I liked the dragging sensitivity, (or rather lack thereof) I just wish there was more to do gameplay wise.
Made my tummy liverize. Your art is.
In all seriousness though, visually and audibly, you've got some really neat stuff going. There wasn't much game going on here, though, very basic in that regard.
We had a lot of fun playing this game, but only because it was busted. I made the worst city in the world, Casinos and Factories everywhere, that was it. Happiness was in the tank, -49, and we still had people coming in in droves. Music was ambitious, but the dissonance was very unpleasant to listen to. Keep going and you'll get better with time! Art was very nice, and the controls functioned rather well. Good job!
Very neat concept. The fact that it was simple worked really well in tandem with the variety of game modes. Everyone involved (three of us) enjoyed the tension and uncertainty. Well done! An expanded version might include some audio, maybe more polished art (big maybe, the current style is very charming), and new card types.
First actually funny game we've come across so far. The voice acting was absolutely worth the effort, and the random effects were incredibly entertaining. We couldn't tell if some of the visual assets were stock or not, but regardless they looked very nice. Well done!
