Really cool game and original.. Took a few tries to understand the gameplay but overall quite good game. You could improve on it as a personal project with more.

Great puzzle game, the only problem was that I only found out that it was a puzzle game on the last level, and before that I was using a glitch that makes it so when you click the rocket, it boosts forward soooo, yee.

Good luck on the jam!

Developer

Thanks for playing I will look into the bug :D

This was a pretty good entry! I'm not sure I caught the theme in use except maybe for those frog-teleporter things. Solid prototype to build on!

A quick quality of life thing might be to let players rotate arrows in either direction.

I would maybe switch out the music for something else--the dance theme doesn't quite seem to fit what's happening here, but that might just be me.

Developer

Thanks for the review I will probably change the music in the post-jam version as for the theme I explained it to Zcyon briefly just down your comment :D

Since this game was done in such a short amount of time (just 24 hours), its objective was to create a prototype for a mobile game, I’m going to focus my review of the game as if I was reviewing a prototype and not exactly a jam entry, which generally has a little bit more polish.

THE GOOD PARTS

  • It’s straightforward.. As any mobile game should be, this game doesn’t need any explanation, align the arrows and get the rocket to the target. I think the game nails this and gets straight to the point.

  • It’s has some neat puzzles. But more importantly, it has a LOT OF POTENTIAL. What about objects that you have to avoid? Arrows that don’t move in the 4 cardinal directions? Timed switches? The ideas are endless for this one.

THE BAD PARTS

  • The background music didn’t really fit IMO. There’s really not a lot to comment about this, it’s my purely subjective opinion.

  • The behavior of the switches can be communicated better. The arrows that are moved by switches don’t show where will they be aiming after I activate their switch; in this prototype it’s evident that they’re going to aim to where you need them to aim but do keep in mind that you’re going to want to communicate this if you’re going to a full release.

  • I didn’t really FEEL the theme on this one. I don’t see how guiding the rocket with the arrows aligns well with the LOOP theme, to be honest.

CONCLUSION

It’s a neat mobile-focused experience. I think there’s a lot of potential here for a mobile release; give it a go, it’s a short 8-level game that will leave you with a great impression.

Great work!

Developer

Thank you for your time and brief review Zcyon, If you just click on the rocket without interacting with anything you will realize that it will keep moving in a loop, my basic idea was that you have to break the rocket loop and destroy the target, initially it was planned like that and at the last moment I made it so you have to touch it first, I thought it will be much more convenient, by the way, thanks for trying it out :D Cheers

Nice game, its amazing it was made in 24 hours

Developer

Thanks for trying it :D

For a 24 hours project, this is pretty cool ! I really like the simple and fun gameplay, and this is intuitive ! I'm sure it would be a great idea to develop a mobile version of this game ;)

Good work !

Thankyou so much for playing :D

Nice puzzle design! waiting for next update!!

Developer

Thanks for playing I will release he update soon :D

Submitted(+1)

Yeah I think this would work really well on mobile! Add in a few more mechanics and some harder levels and you'd be set.

Two suggestions: 1. Make the rocket faster. 2. Design some levels where the player has to switch the arrows while the rocket is already in flight.

Developer(+1)

Noted your points I will make sure to implement these when I start working on the mobile version :D Thanks for playing

Submitted(+1)

The mechanics were very nice, the section designs could have been a little more difficult

Developer

Thanks for playing I release a post-jam version soon :D

Submitted(+1)

I like that you introduce new mechanics through gameplay, that is awlays a good design choice in my opinion. Great job, this was fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing :D

Good mechanics and simple but functional concept, it has potential to become a mobile game for sure!

Developer

Most has already been said, this is a very cool and polished game :) I would have loved some music with it though!

Thanks for playing mate :D

The game is very polished!  I really liked the game, the levels were really fun,  the game gets started straight away. The controls are very intuitive! The only problems I encouztered were the rocket going offscreen not reseting the level straight away and clicking the rocket mid-level would launch it upwards... Very cool!

Developer

Thanks for playing man, game contains some bugs I will remove them in the post jam version :D

Wow, the game is so polished, yet so simple, and the game is actually really fun to play with. And what makes the game so awesome is that it provides multiple solution instead of only one that the designer create. Good game!!!!
