What a fun game! I don't know where to begin, the music is so fitting, the artwork looks so cute, the way you integrated the theme is innovative and fun, and it's easy to understand and play. Amazing work, I never played anything like this before!
When I first opened the game and saw the title screen and menu I was already impressed, after playing it I can confidently say that his game is absolutely outstanding. Was a bit difficult at the beginning, but the challenge makes you want to come back and learn how the game *really* functions, what the best strategies are for getting the orbs, and what you should absolutely not do unless you want to die quickly.
The art and animations are very cute, I love the little orbles ^^ The Purants are quite scary, I love how you can feel the weight and impact as they get closer, you really conveyed how important their approach is! Very nice music and sound effects, it sounds very cute when your orriors attack.
So far this is the best Ludum Dare game I played, you did an incredible job!
Very cute, and a great cinematic introduction to the game! I had a lot of fun dashing around and picking up the right clothes!
Oh man you really nailed the atmoshpere with this one, love that mood change from chill to horror. The way the light changed and shut off when walking that long hallway was especially well done, felt very cinematic! I also enjoyed the layout of the ship and the people I met... except for "Johnson" of course. It was a nice touch that one of your crewmates told you about Johnson acting different so that the end didn't feel like it came out of nowhere, it also helped with already being tense when waking up alone with him!
The animations are really good and the meteor wizard looks quite interesting! You also got some nice music! Having the ability to choose between talking and fighting reminded me of Undertale!
Nice graphics and audio! I loved the title screen with the rotating compass and the overall look of the game, the music was very calming, the soundeffects fit perfectly, and of course the theme fit perfectly too.
Now, this game is very, very difficult. I'm not sure how exactly it works, but it seems like the people only spawn when you get close enough to them in the dead realm before switching to the realm of the living. Funnily enough I encountered 6 people on my first try, then not a single soul for my next 4 tries, and on my last 2 tries I got 2 to 4 people. And let me tell you, they were out for revenge with the speed they killed me!
I suspect that the confusing compass, low amount of people encountered, and the speed at which the ghosts come at you and drain your energy are responsable for making this game a bit confusing and too difficult for new players.
But still, amazing work for 2 people!
An artistic game with a surprising story! Very impressive for being done by only one person, you did an amazing job!
First of all: super cool music! As someone who used Bosca Ceoil before, that was the first thing I noticed. I've spend an embarassingly long time in the title screen just listening and staring at the rotating earth because it looked so interesting. The UI, while simple, is easy to understand.
Now, I'm not sure if it was your intention to make the game this easy, but I think it would have benefited from a bit more difficulty, because right now, you only need to place one factory and wait a bit before you can place your evacuation ship, which makes the rockets entirely useless.
Nonetheless, you did very good for your first game jam!
This game looks so cute, I love the style! The 3D assets, music and UI blend in so well together! Additionally, that is the cutest beetle I've ever seen in a game, also love how stylish the fire looks!
The gameplay is very simple and easy to understand, I had so much fun running around with little logs on my back. I've also noticed how the stones increase difficulty by both hindering your movement and decreasing the space for trees to spawn, very good!
All in all, everything is super polished, you did an amazing job for your first game jam!
