How does your game fit the theme?
The game begins with a false sense of security as you are a time-travel tour guide who has brought tourists to the past. Initially, it feels like a relaxing and serene moment... but then things go wrong: the time machine malfunctioned, and in just 3 minutes, you'll be hit by a meteor storm.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?

Weren't kidding about dumb tourists! xD I managed to keep 'em all alive on my first try luckily enough, but they didn't make my job easy. It's a fun concept, I can see the potential to do a lot more with it! Added to wishlist, good luck with the Steam release!
Thank you a lot!!!!! I will rate your game later!
Very nice game! Congrats on the submission :P
It's simple feature wise, but the intro is nice and gives you a nice context of what and where to go, that's very nice! Are the dinosaurs supposed to attack the player as well? Could be interesting if you also need to flee the dinosaurs and evading them by throwing food or something, basically going deeper in the resource management ^^.
Very well done!
Omg, are you a spy?! Ahahahah! You mentioned exactly the two new features I'm working on! Thanks a lot!
Really cool game! It was fun trying to manage gathering supplies and making sure the tourists don't get eaten. The graphics are great and fit well with the style of game. Good job! :D
Thanks a lot!
Man, these are some stupid tourists lol. Btw, there seem to be some audio glitch sound after you pick up stuff, not sure why but the sound is not pleasent.
Hope that you'll also rate mine :) https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690
Thanks! Yes for sure I will!
I’ve been playing a lot of Fortnite Lego lately, and this game somehow reminds me of it! Of course, without the building, fighting, or crafting. I had fun playing it. Good job!
They really are the dumbest, love the concept! Not sure if this is intended, but they move faster if you whistle more than one time, it's the only way I was able to get to the end with all 10, and even then it still took me many attempts. The sound that plays when you grab something is piercingly high pitched on the right ear though.
Thanks a lot! When you whistle, they speed up… but what you're saying might actually be a bug! Hahaha, thanks for letting me know!
I just created the Steam page for this game. If you like my game, could I ask the huge favor of adding it to your wishlist? There are going to be a lot of improvements, levels and new features!
Thanks!
Sure, sounds good!
Thanks a lot!
Great intro! Bad graphics :/ fun game :D Could use a music tune in the background. Weird that the player does not have to avoid the dinosaurs, I don't really get the theme in this? And annoying you have no way to save those stupid humans. But good concept!
Have you played the game? Ahahah you can save them by interacting with them!
Then I don't understand why you are saying "bad graphics". If course is something that is up to you, but I really don't understand... there is also a music in the background and the theme is explained in the intro...
Thanks for your reply, but honestly I don't get it!
I have replayed it, my sound was muted it seems my apologies. And never tried interacting with the humans, oops that explains a lot, lack of information I guess. :p Graphics jsu don't fit together is what I meant which indeed is personal. However theme still stands that the gameplay itself has nothing to do with the theme for me. But anyway I adjusted my rating accordingly to my reply here. Again my apologies for the mistakes and lack of information.
Thanks!
Opening cutscene is great, such a shame there is no ending one too. I'm curious how did you do this little text appear animation effect during cutscene dialogue. I don't know if it is me or what, but pick up sound was awful to hear, it just hurt my ear like some weird sound artifact. Love the dinosaurs tho!
You are right, I had to add a final cutscene... unfortunately, I ran out of time! Yes it seems like the pick up sound is a problem for some of you! I don't know why, but I will fix iy! Thank you for your review!
Very fun game! Enjoyed the voice acting and gathering supplies. I'm so bad at keeping the tourist alive though haha
ahahahah I also have to balance it a bit!
The game felt very polished. It is fun trying to balance not letting the tourists die and collecting the mushroom that's the farthest xD
Would suggest adding a free Cam instead of something connected to the player. If it's a design choice, would suggest lerping the cam smoothly to the desired position. Would really make it better in me perspective.
Kudos!! :D
Thanks a lot for your suggestion! Since I'm going to publish it on Steam, I'm still updating it...and today I did exactly what you have said! Now the camera is a free camera and it feels much better! Thanks!
Will check it out on steam then!! :D
Thanks!
Dinosaur Games! Everything is clearly better with dinosaurs, having said that this game is super smooth, I love how fluid the animations and interactions are. It plays well and is so solid given it was made in a week! Impressive work!
Thanks a looooot for the nice review!!!
Hey!
This is quite polished! I like how it looks and overall how it plays, even though the gameplay is simple. The way you implemented the theme is smart, and I can't say I have any negative things to say about this. It's an overall good experience.
Though the sound effects for the resources are maybe broken? My right earbud makes a weird sound whenever I collect stuff. I tested it in some other music and games to see if the headphones were broken but no, it only happens when I collect stuff. A minor problem, mind you. But thought that I should let you know.
Well done! Cheers!
thanks a lot for the nice words! I don't why there is that problem...I didn't notice it, but I promise I will fix it! Thanks for saying it!
I managed to get a perfect score :D Nice game!
Really good!
Really great voiceover in the beginning, and clean straightforward mechanics, nice job on this!
Thanks a lot!
Really cool game, great graphics, gameplay is fun, I love also the wall, that is with shader, right? Amazing, great job
Yes I used a shader for the wall limit, another one for the safe are and another one to highlight objects when selected!
Thanks a lot !
Great art and funny mechanic to keep your tourists safe :D Also liked the intro voice, typewriter text effect and the time travel theme in general, good job! :)
Thanks a lot!
Played through your game on stream, if you wanted to watch me go through it ive got the vod below timestamped to your game
Thanks a lot! I'm sorry for the audio...I will fix it! The dinosaurs were a little bit dumb too in this version of the game...ahahah. I'm working on an update and to complete the game with a lot of levels to publish it on steam.
Now the enemies' AI is much better and it is a little bit harder to win the game with a perfect score
Great Game and Voice. But I think you need to add some extra layer of danger. Just to collect the resources before the timeout should not be the goal here, need to have some challenges like escaping from dinosaurs. Overall, great gameplay experience...
Thank you! I think that it is not just a gathering resources game. The "take care of the tourists" mechanic is important since it determins your score! Anyway you are right that this game might have a lot of more features, but in just a week it is pretty hard to do a totally complete game!
I'm working to complete it adding really a lot of new mechanics since I'm going to upload it on Steam!
Game is really nice! Voice acting is excellent, take on the theme is great, visuals are really nice. The thing a little bit lagging behind is gameplay in my opinion cause it's just gathering resources, not so much depth in here. Also the pickup sound effect gives me an ear rape which is pretty bad. My overall experience was pretty good though, especially the game introduction with the voice, man, so clean!
Thanks a lot! I appreciate your review! About the gameplay I think that it's not just gathering resources since you also have to take care of the tourists...but of course I agree that in the complete version that I will publish on steam there must be a more complete gameplay!
I had to think about XKCD comic 2976 ( Time Traveler Causes of Death ) when the intro twist got revealed :D Cool game. I managed to win with one tourist eaten, but I did not manage with less than one being eaten. You did a great job with that voice acting in that goofy intro and the generell setting is great.
Thanks a lot!! I really appreciate your review!
