I really like this automation-type games, its fun and really nice looking. I would suggest to keep the command pallet smaller, something like a 4x4 or so, to keep the puzzles from getting to much out of hand from people that may get a bit scare from the ideia of programming. Other than that, great stuff!
Great job on the game, the graphics and music are really nice. This type of game haven't been my cup of tea for years by now, but i can see myself losing a few hours with this one. The only real problem that i have with the game its the upgrade trailer, it got me fairly confused at the beginning, since its looks like its upgrade the capacity of the cargo hold, but its hard to tell because its just looks like the cargo just got lighter because you used to buy said upgrade, so it would be nice to have a clear feedback in that part. Other than that its a pretty good game.
Good jog making a game in 48 hr. There is some good potential in your game, its would be nice have a little more challenge on the enemy's, they die to easy by the end, you could have done so they life grow as game time goes by, but great job nonetheless.
Great job on the game.
I really like the looks on the game and the atmosphere is great, there is some good potential, especially the story.
The ideia of harvesting meat is good and straightforward, but the mechanic of interacting with the meat is a little confusing, it lacks a little of feedback to when you can harvest the meat, i got almost no ideia what exactly to do in the firsts minutes, and that was probably due to the lack of feedback.
The graphics and audio in your game are superb, i really love some pixel-art games. Overall is a amazing game to be made in 48hrs.
@mihkelroomet Thanks for the feedback. Glad that you like the models, the ghost appers to be a favorite of people haha. I was, sadly, unable to make a win condition to the game due to time. The lack of feedback was, i belive, the biggest of problems of this game, its happen because of lack of time to implement. But yes, you have to plant and then, after a little time, harvest what you planted.
@greynovembergames Glad you liked. I guess it would be a little hard to run and read hahaha.
@jackroxton Thank you for the feedback. I though the lack of feedback was going to be a problem, i sadly just got out of time to implement, its actually my first gamejam in general, so i kind improperly divide the time to make the parts of the game, i kind of spent a big part of the time making the assets and characters. I will have a better plan of work next jam. The balance was something that i though to be a little problematic, since i was not gonna be able to get one of my friends or family to playtest before, so i kind just have to try the numbers with the little time that its has left. Music was something that i have to drop out entirelly, for time of course haha, but i apreciate the recomendation, i was not aware about this site.
@caranha "A seed of something great", i see what you did there hahaha. Thank you for the feedback. Most of the lack of feedback to the player, specily in the plant/harvest part was sadly because of time, its kind of how the jokes in the "voice over" begun haha.
@kenneth-dd Thank you!!
That was a very good introduction, it defined the challenge and explain the goal of the game in a straightforward way pretty quickly, nice game overall.
