I like black humor, irony, realism and stuff, but to me this is just fomenting hatred. Your way of criticising extremism is really on a low level. Despite I think, the graphics are not simple, they are just not good, but match to the quality of your concept. Your interpretation of the LD theme shows a little loss of creativity. Oh, I really like the look of the gorilla. I hope you had more fun making the game than I had playing it. Have nice a nice day and loads of fans that understand you more than I do.
Good idea, but the lenghts of the ways can't keep up the excitement too long. Nice graphics though.
Well, acutually it seems that there is no stuff to do. The map is somehow too big. There is no explanation for the bars. I understand that eating rats makes a duck angry. That's all.
12:29 got addicted. Simple and yet a classic. :) Graphics are improvable
Well written! Some music would be nice. Great mood though!
Yeah thanks for fixing the bug (if it was the one you mention). I'm really enjoying Booster. The citizens should stop walking or give direct feedback. The idea spreading becomes uncontrollable and from a certain point on I do not understand how to influence the whole thing. Nice graphics and colour application. The sound is improvable :)
AAAHHH KITTENS! GOTTA... KILL.. EM... ALL (and the audio messes with my head, too ;)!!!!
Nice Idea, really tricky controls mixed with hack & slay & TD. I like it!
nice game! i cant see why you beat yourself up about it, its playable and the concept works. i liked the controls.
Really really nice and ascinating. Although i did not understand how the war works, how it ends, who wins, how to influence it. Maybe an introduction/tutorial with limited food would be great. Or some effects showing where an attack is or who wins or kills who.
really nice game! great concept. colisson-sound is kinda annoying and the boss is kinda easy.
the first game i tested for ld24 which i played over and over again;)
nice game! i think you might want to stretch the intervalls between new balls. e.g. three levels with one ball, four with two etc. so our brains can adapt to the new situation. i really like the graphics!
incoherent graphics and sound style, fun though :D
Interesting new chess idea, I would also prefer to see, which cells are allowed to step to with a dragged figure. The music is sophisticated and creates the right mood for the gameplay, but decent sounds for the movements of figures would improve the feeling.
Sounds great, but unfortunately there’s an error «Bachelorbee error». I’m not into this, so I can’t tell you what’s wrong.
Using the mac-version I'm having trouble when entering the house - the programme doesn't react anymore.
I am really having fun playing Gobbulator. It's simple and easy to understand, but still has got the ability to keep up excitement. Nice functioning work for a 72 hour jam.
Needo! Though its really really really hard. Didn't recognize the first spike for a while. The music is well composed, but doesn't fit the mood of the game. I think I'll play some more till I beat the first level at least;)
The idea and the whole concept sounds great, but i guess one has to play it, when the whole thing advanced. For the moment I don't see what's exciting about it. You already can place metal boxes, the robots pass through the boxes and i can't see if their GONADS already are transmitting. So, go ahead, I'm looking forward to your update. … aaand, of course really great graphics. Maybe you can improve the mood i you give the tiles a noise or so - but that might be only a personal preference :) Great job!
I would wish that the bin with the liquid would transform the cats to different other creatures and you could bring them back to the overworld. There the transformed/evolved creatures would reproduce with the basic kittens so that you can put the new generation again into the bin. I think the cool music would fit better to such a concept.
Wow, brilliant idea! Some little glitches, but nonetheless pleasant to play.
really good & funny game. one of the few good 3d games in ld24! i think the game would be really improved with some soundeffects.
:) I enjoyed playing your game. If there hab been more time you could have improved a few things. The time could be a bar or should a leas have more contrast. There could be a break before each day to have time for reading the text. I didn't even notice that the minotaur changes his appearance, because I was concentrated on collecting items. And in the short time I did not understand whether the helmet or the shirt is armor (or both?) - are the red things for swimming?. And it took one round to understand the importance of the attack-button ^^ But it was good to see a nice story around this classic concept.
Looks like fun, but there should be a hint when there is no possibility to end the game anymore. You might change the story to a game over point and then give restart with another try.
I played it until generation 10 with a lot of fun, but 5 generations later I stopped because not much changed from generation to generation. But overall a very nice game! Especially the graphics :-)
most-finnished game i've rated so far! really nice. actually i finished the purple one first round by accident. second and third round i failed though. great game!
First impression: too much text; second impression: this is fun; third impression: what’s the aim again?; fourth impression: this real fun. It would be great to have the currently needed specimen displayed during the game. Thumbs up!
Nice little game. I don't get the relation to the theme, but it was fun to make these buildings collapse. The pigs are cute ^^ round wobbly forms always win!
Honestly, I was afraid of executing your software. It's not the most serious way to deliver a game :) I wanted to open it, but I have no idea how to give execute permission. Though I really respect you for the analog graphics. I really like them a lot. And the soundtrack you provide is also very professional and moody.
Rate a few other games using your account to get "coolness" and others will see your game in the default sorting, so you get more ratings and comments.
shame on that flu you had, with a little more time i guess this game would be perfect. audio misses some ambient, but graphics, the soundeffects and the gameplay convey a strong mood.
Right, there's a link missing.
Nice one!
couldn't compile it successfully from source
hey, i made it 10% and 20% of changing him. then i realized i can click on the blocks, too. now the game crashes when i should see the transformation-text :( played on osx snow leopard. funny little game though! if you want to add more "game" to the game, it might be a good idea to give the player only a certain amount of clicks and moving orders!
Mother nature is beautiful. The graphics are professional and create the right mood. I have realized very late that you can scroll the map and are not limited to the narrow section you see when you start the game.
With finer movements of the workers, more "evolution-elements" and some different enemies I am sure this can be a great game :-)
Not bad for the first game with a new language, but the game was too easy from the beginning on. You could make it more challenging.
five extra stars for honesty :) we also used craftyJS. Feel free to rate our game. Search for «The Darwinci Code»
Hey cool concept. The trick worked out. My victim didn't realised it, until I said him why he has lost^^ I think I encountered a bug: the top most line don't move downwards, if a line is completed.
Graphics are great, well done! But I stopped playing after collecting green human icons for over two minutes. It was not clear which effect this has on my "rapist-fighters". Some more work and you will have a nice game!
Wouh that was entertaining! The music in the background, was it synced to the current plot of the story (up and downs)? Or was it just coincidence? Like dremelofdeath I would also like to see non-linearity. Well done!
Amazing how many features you could implement in this short time! With sounds this would be twice as much fun as now :-) using the google-earth/moon/mars images is a good idea. In the mars mission I was really frustrated because an enemy ship came from the buttom up. I think the player should be warned before this happens
Thank you for the feedback so far!
@juaxix: We planned to add some missions and random events to make it more challenging and goal-oriented. But the lack of time, you know...
@lorancou: Thank you for finding this scrolling-bug, it really needs to be fixed.
Can't download it :-(
I like the game mechanics, controlling the shark over the map is a pleasure. The idea is brilliant! Full scores for innovation. Some problems I had with astronomical high money counter (2.xxx E+02) after five loans. But this somehow reflects the reality in a humorous way :-D. If you continue working on it, it can become a really nice minigame for sure.
Hi ENP,
played it on Firefox/Mac. When I clicked on the "Candy from the Baby" Button, music starts. I liked the theme!
the first "tock" when my villain hit the wall really scared me, cause i didn't expect sound :D maybe a "swoosh" of the villain while he's moving and some terrifying noises of the mean kid would be nice! overall a fine game for your first LD!
Nice game! It was fun to find out how to consume villagers and to get stronger, I'm looking forward to the boss! The story and the comments of the villagers create a strong atmosphere, the game just needs some more features to keep it up the whole time!
As the villain its compelling to steal the policemens flashlights and hide afterwards inside a trashbin. Graphics are okay to play (only some disturbing flickering of the lights here and there). Add some sound and missions/levels then it could be really enjoyable!
Perhaps never mainstream-compatible but very funny! I had special abilities and could move the trees. And lick some cats, of course :-)
Never played some shitting-pigeon game before. And now its already the second one. Very cool game though - and not too easy.
Very professional! Theme, sounds, graphics, gameplay and mechanics are superb. So is the boss. I needed nearly half an hour to beat him. Great!
Great Gameplay!
I think you should write the Tip at the start, not at the bottom of the text. It was the only line i needed to understand the game, though I thought the other text first and thought omfg this looks not like fun.
I was missing audio (Firefox/Mac) and it would be nice to keep the game going while I'm seeing Textboxes.
Check out our strategy-game! ;)
It was really fun playing it! Perhaps the third level was too large to play well with the slow scrolling. Writing some descriptive text on the floor is a quite efficient solution. But in the Win-version I missed the escape key behaviour, had to close the game it with ALT+F4.
Idea with switching the daytime is interesting. Perhaps the character can find additional information on puzzles only at day/night. Therefore the switching should be limited to special moments. The mood is authentic and I can imagine it could become a innovative game. Keep developing it :-)
Yeah, I managed to receive the amulet of Xonthor! But I think with Bobcat this is nearly impossible, because I failed twice trying it. Matthew is the man. The music/sound and the grafics were nice. Somehow I felt not like a villain, but like a hero-like deconstruction worker who is attacked by stuff throwing zombies :-)
