nice game, i wanted even more powerups and some big bosses but i know the time constraint of this jam is not enough. any plans to continue development?

Developer

First and foremost, we are really glad you enjoyed the game so much. It means a lot.

Secondly, yes, we are planning to improve this project, and we are working on it. So far we've mostly done the invisible part of the game (optimizing, better feedback, fixing bugs, controller support etc). If we work on schedule, or more likely, faster than planned, we might be able to upload a new release of the game including a bossfight, by the end of the rating phase. But then again, this is pretty unlikely.

Thank you, again, for your kind comment! :)

Thank you! We are really thankful such great musicians helped us.

By the way, it might be a good idea to scale down the image you have posted here. Since the image takes up twice the size of your comment it basically screams "Rate my game!".  And this makes it feel like: Yeah-yeah, I'll write a comment but only because I want you to check out my game. And I guess you didn't want to make your comment feel like that.

Once again, thanks for your kind comment, and we will check out your project as well, when we have time. :)

Submitted(+1)

Okay thanks for your advice :)

Developer

I didn't mean that you should remove the image, just making it smaller should do the job. Other people have a miniature of their games under their comments after all. :)

Submitted

i couldn't make it smaller, so i removed it :)

its okay.

and yes i don't know why my comments doesn't have the "Submitted" tag on it

I don't understand the reason behind it either, but it happens to every contributor - including me. (If you are just added to a project and it's not made by you.)

I loved this game! The main mechanic was so fun to go through the levels with. Great job all around!

Damn right is it a good game. Highly enjoyable, with the core gameplay itself being very good. I feel like this is a showcase worthy game. Loved it. Bravo. SHOWCASE WORTHY.

Developer(+1)

Wow! Now you're using some real compliments describing the game. Thank you so much for your kind words and we are really glad you liked it so much! :)

Submitted(+2)

great game. i love the idea of shooting to dig holes and the gold healing you.

Developer

Thank you! The fact that you loved the main idea of the game this much makes us really happy!

Great fun and game design! I love when a game mechanic is so intuitive you can just launch it for the first time and  immediately have fun. I liked graphics and powerups too! Great job!! Keep up the good work!!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for your kind comment! We really appreciate it! :)

Holy crap! What an enjoyable game you made Harman! I love it💕
everything is 5-star in my opinion!

Submitted

Just one question:
Is this the end of game? all of them is metal!

Developer (1 edit) (+3)

Sadly, we didn't have time to add a proper ending to the game... So, yes, this is the end of the game. But more importantly, we are really glad you liked our game so much, we really appreciate it! :)

P.S. We worked in a team, so it's not only Harman, who have made it. :P

Submitted(+1)

Cool, keep going then!

Ask other jammers in community or on discord for the playing and rating your game, 12 votes isn't enough.
Good luck.

Great game! The mechanic is incredibly fun. It reminds me of downwell.

Developer

Thank you, we are really glad we managed to create something that could entertain you! :)

Interesting game, but I'm not quite sure what I was trying to achieve.  It wasn't sure if I was doing the right thing by constantly blowing my way down to the next level without collecting more of the triangles first.

Developer (4 edits) (+1)

That was one of our main concerns not having enough time to make a begin cutscene/tutorial. Since the game doesn't explain what it wants the player to do,  there is nothing preventing the player from going straight down.

As for now, we are aware that we didn't manage to make the player want to play the most fun way, but we hope this didn't ruin your experience.

 And before you ask... "6 days, 23 hours before the deadline" No, this isn't the time we made the game... We didn't have a whole minute before the jam ended. :P

Submitted

A week is not a lot of time to produce a fully working game.  It's impressive that you got so much done.

Developer(+2)

Actually... This was only the last three days. We made 2 other prototypes we weren't happy with...

So basically this whole jam was a rush, and we added as many things as we had time for.
