Not enough statistics at the end of the level and summarizing. Random events would also make this game much better. After a few levels it gets boring. In General, the game looks cool, but there are some technical problems with the sound. Sometimes the music volume was increased several times causing "bassbuster" version.
I fixed the rest of the camera scale. I would like to add more features and slightly alter the levels, but I think it's not quite fair in the competition. Save the progress of the level after death is not planned, the essence of some levels - the race against time.
Very high quality game. With the exception of control:)
This is weird... But it is cool. Graphics and sound set the atmosphere of a fun game, but the gameplay is cruel. I like the combination of two things that are so different.
This is great! Unfortunately it's hard to find a second player these days, but it's a pretty cool idea. Excellent graphics, animation and sounds, some of the best on ludum. I adore that raccoon :3
P. S. Many people use Linux or Mac. You can easily make an HTML5 build in Unity for these people.
@samuli, oh, that's sad :( Have you tried using the new input system? It works for almost everything and makes it easier to create local multiplayer.
Art and music are very meditative! I would slightly correct the terraforming sounds... and the optimization :)
This is the cutest game on jam, you did a great job on the design. Also, you chose the best music for the game :) Despite the warning, i played on the keyboard and there were no problems with it. c:
The fish stopped if i used a dash: looks like a bug, but maybe it's a good mechanic so that the player doesn't spam this action. It can also help to leave the fish in a safe place.
I would also like to see an extension of the dash. This may be obstacles that break or undertow that need to jump. The enemies look quite harmless, because of this the meaning of the character's HP bar is slightly lost. Perhaps this can be corrected by a dangerous environment and more aggressive enemies. Tube-shortcut can also help diversify the level design and gameplay.
Either way, it looks cool. Good luck!
Art style came out pretty nice, but as said above, there is not reaction to my actions. This makes the game quite difficult. I would also make it possible to skip the start screen if you plan to do post-jam version. Good luck :)
@patsui, @red-ash, we didn't have enough time to speed up the game and check all the levels for passability. I load a new build, in which we slightly accelerated the gameplay and corrected the interface in some places.
@briibot, if you are mean the energy recovery indicator, I think it would be a good idea to do this.
@duke thank you so much for the great feedback, I've slightly improved the camera controller and the pace of the game, but I think the problem with player engagement is still present :c
@cdunham, we started making tutorial levels, but we didn't have enough hours to finish them for all types of traps. Because of this, a serious game starts a little early.
@chrisevry, yes, the music and sounds were made by @grmnzr within three days. We remembered about Lemmings after we started implementing this game. I'm glad someone else remembers them :)
And thanks for your comments too: @twigames, @lukebandy, @theomelet, @vernalbehemoth, @kate90. I wish you all good results on this ludum and good luck on the next jams!
@fatpenguin Wow, thank you for this lovely review ^^ I hope the team and I can make a big version of post-jam. Many of your suggestions look very interesting! We also planned things like animation, UI, pause, and various project settings initially, but we didn't have time to do this. Too much in just three days :) And I missed the bug with the bad hitboxes. Thank you for reporting this!
The dialogues made me smile almost all the time :) You did a very good job with the hints (signs and camera targeting). Many teams have a problem with this part of the game. The game looks complete and complete. Only the character controller could have been a little better.
I liked the hook mechanics, but would like more speed for dynamics and fun. This graphics is very cute :3
Overall I liked this, but the mechanics with the eyes are annoying after a time and the egg is too fragile. I would like several stages of egg breaking :)
The visual design is excellent. Cool style, menu, animation, and tutorial. The gameplay at the start is not bad, but there was not enough variety of game mechanics.
I was able to defeat the second boss without cheats)
@Lumos, sorry, there was not enough time to make the mechanics and balance more correct. It's just a quick concept
