The sounds were a great surprise! I got a bit stuck on level two until I realised that I could jump further than I expected. The ending was also pretty abrupt. This game has a great story, wonderful audio and its a great concept!
This is just. yes. I spent quite a long time at the end with the music.
I agree with the movement speed, I think it's actually a bug. In testing you moved every so slightly faster. I updated the speed, changed the friction from 0.9 to 0.93. It should feel a lot better now!
I can't seem to play the game, I get "This application requires a java runtime environment." every time I open it.
I love the world this is set in. There is also a heap of art and thats very cool.
I do like this, its a version of tower defence that is more passive and I like that. It is quite difficult though. But I had fun!
mmm gliadin
I love this so much. I laughed so hard when it first changed. I found it difficult but I am going to go back in and try again. Well done!!
edit: I made it to day 10! $1838
Very pretty. I found the visual language rather confusing. Having the "campaigns" button next to social media made me almost miss it. And needing to click start was also confusing. I got to level 6 and I didnt really see any change in difficulty, just more confusing visual language. Overall I did like it though!
Impressive amounts of polish. I love the opening screen thing, kinda felt like laser tag. I didnt really like the shooting sections and I still dont really know if they did anything. The shooting felt kinda difficult but thats not really my thing generally. Overall pretty cool!
That was beautiful! Here for the same reason as @miraculousmelon. There are similarities but your game still surprised me so much! I loved BuildYourOwnShovel Inc so much and I need it in my life. There was a lot of really cool subtle details and basing it around the story of a waterpark being built on a cozy island was a very interesting way to frame the story! Well done, amazing!
I always love seeing a JavaScript based game and its so satisfying to see the simplicity of this concept.
I couldn't really find what to do. I found all the places, I restarted the game a few times to see that original message through I am still really confused.
I love all the little details like the trains moving around. Bit slow paced and repetative, but what I did play was pretty coooool!
Very pretty and well designed graphics, I like the idea though I dont know what to do after I get stuck somewhere other than wait for the game to be over. I also sometimes had trouble reading the paths as there was not that much contrast.
babnabanana.. Controls were quite painful, but I eventually figured out how to drive.
I did not like this game... I did play it for 20 minutes though!! And the mood was amazing. I dont think any of the game design decisons really made any sense. The perma death, the one item at a time... everything about the keys. I played for the sounds, mood, atmosphere and art. I dont know how you could win this without just checking every key. Some way to maybe tell which key is right would probably help.
I struggled to figure out how the game works. I placed stuff where ever I could. Not sure if its about proximity or stacking or speed.
I love this in basically every way, its just a bit too difficult I think. The opening cutscene and the death screen are wonderful and give a great contrast in mood to the main gameplay sections. It was also pretty difficult to know where stuff was going to be placed which made organising things really hard. Fighing against the walking speed felt a little clunky but overall this is really nice!!
This is a nonsensical wonder, the writing is so good and it had me laughing heaps. Every character felt so right, was a bit sad that some of the characters cant be spoken to but it makes sense I suppose. Also the game started not responding and froze my computer after I sat down. I loved this, this is great!
Felt very clunky to control with no much feedback on any input. I would get stuck in weird situations. Took me to almost quit the game to see the different types of combinations. I like the concept but I would have liked to have seen a bit more polish!
I had a lot of trouble controlling the camera, combat felt a little out of control, I liked the way the attack worked, it was just a bit annoying when it would stop before hitting the enemy. I love the 3D world, it looks great!
This is a great all rounder! I love the pacing and the audio design is very nice and fits the vibe perfectly. I struggled at first looking more at the speech bubble unsure what to do until I realised what each of the arrow keys did.
Hello!! I found this experience quite enjoyable, I didn't quite finish the kitchen and everything is on the floor. I expected I would be given the items back that I didnt place by the end and was a little sad that my toilet was lost forever. How did you even manage to model thing many things in the time, I would go crazy. The controls were mostly good except, backspace didnt feel very nice in the layout, but knowing now that you can just lose stuff I feel a bit better about it being difficult. It would be nice if there were more light sources so part of the house was not just shrouded in darkness. Good game, well done! Discord_vqpGjCJ1Kq.png
Unity WebGL stuck on loading screen
As someone who also works on a JavaScript based game engine of sorts (heh yep) it's nice to see someone else do the same and see what they make with it. I had fun clicking the cultists. If anything audio would be nice for feedback but ill leave the AudioContext madness for you. Well done!

I love the designs of the characters, the whole vibe of the game is really cool. I got very confused once I was asked to select details. It wasn't entirely obvious what I could click on. I couldn't figure out what logs I was meant to be able to click either. I want to see more of the game, there seems to be a lot here!!!
This looks really pretty and I love the controls and feedback. The song while nice on its own is very repetative and a bit much for my mind while thinking. I wasnt sure what to do beyond getting "A Gift".
On my second time playing the little bar thing didnt move at all. I love the environment, it looks really cool and the sound design is also great. I am surprised I thought of clicking on the buckle thing on the case, there was not really any indication for it.
Reverse tower defence!!! I didnt really understand the way the game worked through, I beat the first level by having one of each character. But on the second level I did the same but I lost...
It's cool to see a story based game. I would have liked to be able to do something though. It also took a really long time before we had characters on screen and I am not sure if it was on purpose but a lot of the backgrounds where just black.
I don't really know what I just experienced but it was pretty cool. The Research Center was a fun place hehe
It was very satisfying to watch the points be calculated every time I rolled but I felt like (and I guess it is) everything was random. I'd love to hear about strategy if there is any.
This game has a pretty nice amount of polish to it, the interface looks great and the game controls well. I would really appreciate some instructions though.
I wasnt really sure what to do beyond placing some towers. It also tool me a while to realise I could place certain towers. I felt pretty helpless most of the time. I really like seeing the little guys walk around. I wasn't able to figure out why there was a player character. I did end up winning in the end, but I dont really understand what happened. I liked it though!!
I liked the vibe and feeling of the game. Would have liked a bit more feedback on actions. I survived 1 waves!! :D
The opening was really quite something. I never really got the game even though I played for about 20 minutes. I felt like I was always under attack and it never really gave me any time to think and figure out what the game was actually about. I didnt realise there was a portal until I had played for a while and even after getting to it and opening it. It was just full of scribles so I was confused about what to do with it. I liked how there was a heartbeat when you didnt have many lives, it was a good warning. And the mechanic of summoning felt pretty cool. I was often caught off guard with the enemies being the same colour as the things you summon which got me quite a few times.
I made it to the second level! But I dont think I could do that again, I felt like I was just creating random things... Actually I take that back I just did the second level. My strategy was to create a heap of QQWER until I ran out of Q and then switch over to WWERR and then finished with EEEEE and WWWWW. This strategy appears to work very well. I always love a good reverse tower defence style game. (I got my diploma of conjuring :D) Also that menu music is lovely.
The 1.3 version has all (I hope) of the soft locks fixed!!! Thanks for the reports everyone. :D
The design of this game is really pretty, great colour use! I liked the "Thanks to RNG" line. The drawings of every random character are fantastic and very entertaining.
This is awesome!! I don't know how you managed to create such a piece of software in 72 hours. The game crashed for me as I picked something up to move it out of the way so I didn't get to finish the kit but I will probably return to this some day to do so.
I purded 6 demons! I liked the imp.
I really like the presentation of this game. Though I didnt end up connecting a midi controller its awesome that you included support for that. I did miss the title screen because I was so excited to click buttons and hear noises. But thats nothing reopening the game couldnt have helped me with. I dont really get how the scoring works but I had fun and I felt I could do better each time.
Discord_SyLvcQO69k.png I got stuck. I like the music and it was nice there was a tutorial of sorts in the level design but I felt I had to waste some of the energy to try out the rit... spells... to figure out what they did.
I love the not getting summoned idea! The movement was really really satisfying, I normally lost because a portal was created where I was.
Also I am bragging, my high score is 201. Nice game :D
I like the idea, it felt a little unfair when they came right on screen from the top or the bottom and I didnt get a chance to even notice them when if they came from the sides it was just really easy. It also didnt really feel like anything happened. Maybe adding a score counter would have made staying alive longer feel it had a purpose.
For the windows download you need to include more than just the exe file. I also got a 404 error for your WebGL build. I was unable to play the game... But the character designs in the photos look cool and I was able to listen to the song!
I use blender frequently and I was not expecting to see anyone to use the game engine part of it so well done to you!!! I think you should put a bit of text somewhere saying where the actual game exe is because I totally opened the blender file first hehe. I love the style and look to everything and it was quite interesting to watch the skeletons move around. I found the easiest thing to do was to just stand in the corner of the room and wait for the skeletons to summon themselves. Very interesting entry!!
Awesome animations and the whole setup of everything was pretty cool. But I like everyone else here found the progression really really slow. Like, the only rtual I have is prayer until level 10? I am not even sure how to level up.
I love the mystery of the world uncovering. The game kinda dragged on though and I didn't know what each upgrade did. I think there is a lot of potential!
The wolf looks awesome!! It took me trying to fail to realise you have a limited amount of units. I wasn't quite sure how the line of 3 pikemen were aiming... or how anyone was aiming. I assume there was no aim and everyone just always hit. I like the game!!
This is a nice simple concept. I love that it accepts extra words!
This whole concept is insane, well done everyone! It looks, feels and sounds amazing and it is really fun. That opening too!! Just wow!!
Feels nice to control and its a good challenge. I love how many different types of things are after the cheeeeeeeese and how each type gives a new challenge or ability.
I really like this concept and it's been made very nicely! Things hiding most of the time makes for a fun challenge of remembering where you are trying to go and what you need to avoid. The monochrome art style is nice. It did feel a little unresponsive when trying to move around. Though it is nice to have the grid movement be in little bursts.
I like the mood of being underwater with the music. The art is very fun and that death animation is quite unexpected. I found the gameplay fairly difficult and wasnt able to get more than 2 stars. I wasn't quite sure what would cause me to lose hearts with all the dead bodies all over the place. Would have been nice to have some sound effects or feedback for interactions. Overall though pretty nice game!!
Also!! Thanks for removing herobrine!
I really enjoy the music. I have been listening to it for a good while now hehe. I wasn't exactly sure how to get 1000 to pay the blacksmith. I only got to 992. I did the dancing and looked for things all over the place but I couldn't seem to find any more.
The controls feel really nice and I love the whole walking on walls mechanic. Fairly challenging too, the difficulty spiked up a lot once I got to the first level with the moving diamonds. Each level was really unique. I wasn't able to get past the level with the moving platforms. This is a solid platformer, well done!!
@nick-halstead Ha! you found it
I love the sound design so much!!! This is so cute, it looks and feels really nice. There is a lot of really nice polish and the controls feel nice. The golden blobs are a nice extra challenge in time and aim making you think about the risk. I love this.
This is such an entertaining concept, it was really satisfying to move all the olives around and their reactions to being picked up were great. The last level was a little strange and janky but I did it!!
I love all the details, the art is delightful and all the jokes and different death screens. There were quite a few times when colliders were bigger than I was expecting or I died for no apparent reason in the middle of the air. I played this with a friend and they loved it!
I struggled to remember/know what everything did, it would be nice to have labels. I like that in place of actual sounds the clock had text saying tick and tack, that entertained me. It was also funny to walk into a room and just see the couch flying around. It seemed like only the third potion did anything. I did apparently win in the end.
Really felt like I was climbing that social ladder. The animations for things were e n t e r t a i n i n g! Very funny game, some fun activities in their too!
The buildings breaking was very satisfying. It would have been cool to have more things to break. Or a larger world. The green colour palette was neat.
Took a bit to get the hang of. It's a bit like tetris kinda. I like it, its a good puzzle, I think it might have been better to choose a different size as I think it might be quite easy to go on for ever. Nice game!!
I feel like I missed something... I just clicked on the goblin then clicked on the table above and won each time. I do love the chaotic energy of the goblins!
I love how the cat moves, it's feels great running from it. I couldnt see the full screen at any time so it was a bit difficult to judge what was happening but I had a lot of fun!!
I found it a little difficult to understand what was going on, a lot is thrown on you at once. I like the design of it being sketches on a notebook!!
This is pretty cool to play with. I have always enjoyed playing with conways game of life. Moving around the cell placer is a little finicky but you get the hang of it.
Decent difficulty curve. I liked how you could dodge the other fish. Bit awkward when the background image's edges end up showing.
This is a fun unique little platformer. I really liked timing making the holes for the drills to fall into. There are also a few times you can take a shortcut which I like.
I got 26, and then died. The movement left and right is very slow but I eventually adapted to that.
I always love a good strategy based game, the encounters were pretty cool, I got a bit too comfortable with them and ended up with the giant squid taking part of my submarine. The text based system added a lot of story potential.
My that locked file sound is loud!! There is a surprising amount of features to round out this computer experience. It's so satisfying to figure out what a passcode is. Though it is also quite difficult. The videos are really nice. I got down to 3 locked files but I couldn't think of what would come next.
The background details and all the animations are really nice. I like how before you can continue there is a force pushing upwards, which was also fun to use to get around. I found the process fairly monotonous killing all the different creatures oh each floor. Upside down crabs were especially annoying, mainly having to wait for them to come around. The shop with Slimak is nice and I like the mood of it. Nice game :D
The visual style of this game is so unique, its quite nice. I the level is also fun to explore and the single shot at a time insta death scenarios you are put in give space for problem solving. Nice game!
I looked into the depths. I didn't know what else to do with the depths
I got 1110 souls in 6:59! I didn't find there to be that much difficulty though I had fun none the less. Also the animation on the games logo is quite cool. Just wanted to mention that.
I made some big planets and then they got so big they disappeared! Interesting little simulation
Oh that makes sense!! Very nice :D
I both love and hate the movement, it makes for a good challenge when navigating and puts a lot of value on you being able to use the sonar effectively. I didn't feel like I could get anywhere without already knowing where ships were that I needed to rescue because the enemies would eventually rid you off ammo. But overall I like it! THe music is fitting.
I like the style of the game. It's also nice how you made it so the game fits into the web page on itch making it look like a window on the screen. I wasn't able to get past the radio though sadly. But what I did see was nice!
This looks quite nice, I like the ui, not sure why you would want to hide it. I didn't really find there to be any difficulty as you can just go around clockwise and you will have enough time. There isnt that much time to gain by weaving around things.
There is a big grey box in front of all the game content and I cant quite see a way to remove it? But there is cool sound design so thats nice.
I return! The game looks and sounds pretty cool and feels very ominous. It took a while to figure out what was actually happening, there wasnt that much feedback. Eventually I think I understood. Fun little card game!
Rather difficult but I had a lot of fun. The deepest I got was 20m out of two runs.
I simply can't play this game, the exe gives me an error saying "This app can't run on your PC" and the web version just freezes the browser and doesn't work.
Oh yes pressing space seemed to work!! I like the atmosphere and despite the compatability dead shaders it still holds up pretty well. The giant eye made me jump when it first appeared hehe. You made quite the ominous void to hang out in
