In what way does your game fit the theme?
You play an A.I and must duplicate yourself into ship's systems. Doing so create a copy of yourself wich you must interact with.
The more you duplicate the more energy you generate and the stronger you become.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I've made all the code by myself, the assets are from Itchio (Free/Paid) and from 1 bundle (Humble Bundle).

This is an interesting concept. A bit complicated at first but with the tutorial is clear and helps a lot. Some of the game elements are still not clear to me and a bit more feedback for the player would be nice. For example how much energy you get from actions or what the sabotage is for. It felt like i could sabotage a room just to repair it afterwards.
I really like the concept and you could do a lot with it. nice!
Thank you for playing the game and for the feedback.
I will take time to make an update/rework it to make the game less confusing and give more feedback to the player !
Very interesting concept. I'd love to see more interaction types if you were to continue development on this. Different sliders, or pathing avoiding certain obstacles when connecting the nodes together. Liked the music and graphic vibe. Nice job!
Im really happy that you've liked the concept.
More interactions is something I really want to implement. Also the obstacles were planned but with the lack of time unfortunately it was scrapped .
Thank you a lot for playing the game 😊
Great game!I was a bit confused, but it was very fun to play nonetheless! A suggestion would be to have the options for each AI directly in the menu that appears when you click it, instead of being in the bottom left and having to click "interact".
Thank you ! I'm sorry for the confusion I will rework the how to play ! I've put your suggestion in my notes for the rework :)
Really really cool! I really like the concept and the mechanics you designed. I hope there will be more levels coming up after the voting ends. Everything worked pretty well, but there are 3 things about UX I would like to talk about.
1) I personally think now each action involved so many clicks. I feel it might be better if every time when players click on an AI, the dialogue box would show up directly.
2) I noticed a bug. If I clicked on a locked AI first, and I clicked on an unlocked AI next, and then clicked on the Interact button. Instead of showing the dialogue box, the Duplicating Nodes of the locked AI would show up.
3) Another bug. If I clicked on the Repair action on an AI, and I simply waited without any clicking until the next repair task for this AI shows up. So when the repair task showed up again, I found the Repair action didn't work anymore, so I had to click on the AI and the Interact button again to refresh the dialogue box.
4) When you first unlocked an AI, the Repair action is white. I guess the text should remain red before the repair task shows up.
But all of these that I mentioned are just minor things. I understand we all had only limited time to complete our game. I really like your game, I just thought these might be helpful for you if you managed to do a post-jam version later. Awesome work!
Woah thank you a lot for the time you've invested in the game. First, let me tell it's a really nice comment :) I intend to work on the game a little bit after the Jam, mostly fixing the UI so there's less clicks.
For the first bug you mention I see what you mean. It happens once when I've quickly tested the game before releasing it. I wasn't able to reproduce it so I was confused when it happened. Now it makes muuuch more sense. With what you said I'll be able to fix it quite easily !
I've just tested the second bug you've mentioned. I'm not entirely sure how to fix it yet, but I think it's related to the first bug. It's certainly a variable that's not resetting properly.
You're absolutely right about the repair's color. Since in the "Phase 2" locked actions are red, unusable actions should also be red to prevent confusion.
Again, thank you a loooot for the time you've invested in my game and this huge feedback. It means a lot for me since it was my first Jam and my first game !
Nice work on this one, it was a little confusing at first but i love the art in this but not really liking the UI but i feel that's a personal preference, good work overall though! This has potential :)
Thank you for playing the game :D
I'm also not entierly happy with the UI, I have the feeling that it should contrast more (visually speaking) with the game, to make it easier to... read it!
Good job, i was just a bit confused in the beginning :)
The music and art feels good :D
Thank you :) I'll certainly work on it after the Jam !
Nice game! I love the art, music and sound - I feel it has a lot of potential I just found it pretty confusing
Thank you :D
Yeah I really need to rework the How to Play menu, put more informations on what you can click and all.
Nice game, I feel that the mechanics could be explained a bit better since I had no idea what the bar was until I realized it’s my suspicion gauge. The micromanagement aspect of this game was really cool, loved the little quotes by the clone AIs as I selected them after entering my murderous rage mode haha
Maybe a bit more RNG on the cooldown on the repairs would be nice, as I developed a pattern of pre-cycling through the AIs and just selecting the repair button the moment it goes down. I also don’t think the context menu between “open window” and “do nothing” was very necessary, since it just added an additional click to whatever I wanted to do. Other than that, really good, pretty impressive for your first game! :)
Ahoy ! Thank you for playing the game, you must be the first player to mention the little quotes. These are little details and I'm really happy that you've noticed :) It was a real challenge to make my first game during my first jam and alone !
The game itself is for now quite confusing, the How to Play and the menu "Interact - Do Nothing" must be reworked. I think I'll provide a fix after the Jam when I have more time to work on it.
Good game, I only suggest when you click on the computer open direct to the options to choose instead open a small window to choose to open another window. And to put some visual feedback when your suspect is going down.
Nice Work.
You're actually not the first person to tell me this. My own best friend told me that if feels useless to create another textbox when you want to interact with a computer. I guess I'll also need to change that.
The game also lacks a lot of signs and feedbacks. Well there's a feedback for the sus but I guess it's not enough since the player is in a constant rush.
Thank you a lot for you feedback :)
Nice game, at first didn't understand the mechanics, but when I understood them, it was really fun.
If you have time and want, please rate my game too :D
