Nice game :) The movement is a little wonky on PC, but overall not bad.
Fun little game, cute art - I strangely like the death by falling into the pond the most! I found the bugs a little hard to see, and I found that the easiest way to play was just to spam-click, which I'm not sure is the intended way to play! Played on PC.
Funny little game with cute art and good music. I like the idea. simple concept but fun. I played on pc and it ran fine
A great game concept with the theme of connection. Are you able to win or is it endless and you try to beat your high score? I was able to get 6 sticks and for some reason the screen turned all red for me after getting hit by the dog - however - but still had health - so may want to look into that to see if that's working as intended. The trackpad worked for me on my laptop.
If you work a little more on the movement, you'll get a nice game! Overall, it's nice and unique idea! Loved it!
It's an okay idea, but the movement for me is a bit too jarring.
Game was pretty fun and challenging at times! Mainly mindblown by how it could be played on my mobile phone. What game engine are you using and what are your build settings?~
I use Construct 3, I actually made somewhat of a DevLog on this (the quality is beyond poor) I don’t even really know what build settings means haha but I used the free version of Construct and use it mostly on my phone. I don’t have a lot of time unfortunately so this whole game (aside from the music) was made during my breaks at work
Hahaha oh man - "mobile gamers are pure gamers" I read that and laughed and thought surely you must be trolling us. Then a spider spawned in the camp fire right as I was placing my 10th log and I got killed and I knew for sure!
Thanks for this I had fun!
The theme is implemented in a very selfish way. Sitting by the fire is a way my wife and I bond so collecting sticks to keep the fire going is about connecting with her. Also I could have told people that going near Mrs Games replenishes your health as my way to try and sneak in the connection theme. And Rekindle is another way to say reconnecting. Thank you for playing the game and I hope you enjoyed it, I appreciate your feedback!
I made my wife happy, a lesson well learnt for real life lol Jokes aside, its a nice little game. I like the different enemy types.
I think you need some sort of menu as the music is pretty loud (also was the out of tuned guitar intentional? haha. If so it kind of fits in a strange way lol)
I would like to have added more but because it was the free version of construct I only had 40 events haha. I’m really glad you enjoyed the game, the guitar tuning was a bit of a happy accident. I noticed after recording that it sounded off but I thought it kind of matched. It was originally going to play only if you died but again, low event count made it the main theme for all menus
Can confirm, it does work on desktop!
I think the art for the game is really cute, I like the style and the choice to not really have a whole lot of animations - gives it a certain feel, I can't find the words for it, but it works really well! Kind of a terrifying lawn - giant bugs, sentient lawn mowers, and magically appearing sticks would be more than enough to keep me away.
Good job!
