LD43 — Sacrifices must be made

Super Sellout by Moski 2018-12-13T12:43:49Z

Well done!, its a rather amazing looking game! i love the implementation of the theme.

I'm impressed about the amount of work that you guys did!

there are some things that could be better. - its nice you can jump of both sides of the building, however the buildings always seem to be perfectly aligned at the bottom. - The effect of the sponsors could have been stronger and more diverse. it would have been nice if you turn on all sponsors you wouldn't be able to get a good score.

i found mixing up the ability buttons all the time, perhaps some indications for buttons would have been nice. liked the over all style and the aproach on the levels, as well the amount of content is awesome! nice work! Thanks a lot for sharing the game on our stream :) here is a link to the gameplay - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/345040549?t=08m53s

Startup Simulator 2019 by Benjamin San Souci 2018-12-06T14:23:32Z

well done! It's nice that you could see what and whom a decision would affect, I would have liked knowing how much some decisions would have costed me. anyhow great work!

Unicorn Rescue by devharts 2018-12-12T23:32:23Z

I love that you set out to make a game that would be enjoyable for your daughters. it looks lovely! i hope they will like it as well.

The game is most certainly good.

I do have some minor remarks that might improve the game. - The starting position slightly suggests i should first go into the mountain. (since we are trained to move from left to right (kids might not be)). It might have been nice to start in the castle. This would be so i could directly pick up some items and so i know where i came from and that i might need to bring items. - personally i would have let the player bring the egg back.

personaly the over all red color seamed a bit too much, could tune the post processing a bit down. liked how the contorls became looser and the character faster as you went through the levels. nice work on the jokes and making the game look quite creepy!

Maroon3d by juju 2018-12-06T14:01:18Z

Well done, nice game, it was odd seeing one of the cultists appear out of a wall in one of the rooms, i think slightly increasing the speed would benefit the game and maybe some in-game controls explanation

Fire Swept by Eric Smith 2018-12-10T23:55:19Z

well done! it was a bit of a struggle to get into. but once i got the hang of it, it was rather good, I partially like that the units need to stay near the firetruck for water. But it is really annoying if your only character cant reach the fire. furthermore i though i would keep the reinforcements however they kept disappearing each round. anyhow impressive work! BTW if you burn your firetruck you wont be able to send your people home

Shepards Island by Zhorky 2018-12-06T19:14:16Z

Perhaps the orbiting of the island could be mapped to the mouse to make the navigation easier, loved the overall atmosphere and feel of the environment! As well, Thank you for sharing the game on our stream :) here is a link to the gameplay - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/345040549?t=51m54s

Chiiip by LuCecyl 2018-12-06T08:20:33Z

Very nice game, well done, nice that you included both more then one language, i think it would be best to put it on English first though. the messenger was also rather cool, but i didn't really see what its purpose was, i think that it would have been fun if the other sheep blaaaaahmed you for sacrificing another sheep

Killage People by Twisted Hive 2018-12-07T10:43:18Z

@sauski Thanks for the reply, I've looked through the issues you've described, and indeed your findings will greatly benefit in helping us adjust the game. in case you might want to know what is causing the issues.

- touching an island would freeze the game for half a second: this is most likely caused since we request the islands inventory. (this should be able to be fixed by requesting the nearby islands inventories, or updating the islands on the whenever an attack has been listed on the server)

- not finding an island when heading towards an arrow, this we have not been able to reproduce, however we do display only 5 arrows but do not sort the islands based on distance, there are for sure some improvements here, (arrows can also point to fishing spots, but the arrow does not visibly differ)

- we currently do not have any "island inventory" decay/regrowth, islands will stay empty until we reset them manually, furthermore we noticed that there was a bug in the inventory system that might cause you losing items out of the inventory upon raiding multiple islands at once, the latter is currently fixed (though i should look at it some more)

thanks again for reply, ill let you know when stuff is fixed;)

@shide that is odd, we've not encountered this issue before, it also seems that the issue has not been logged in the unity analytics dashboard. we will try to find what went wrong, what device did you run the game on?

Really Bad Flying Machine by wormius 2018-12-06T19:18:51Z

The collisions could be more clear. Loved the level design as well as how the mechanics get used to solve the puzzles, can become very tricky, awesome work @wormius ! As well big thanks for sharing the game to our stream :) here is a gameplay link - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/345040549?t=01h04m39s
