Ranked from 40 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
My game fits the theme, since the more PANDAS there are, the more powerful and wise the group of pandas is.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, all the code and art was created by me though I've only had a couple months of game dev experience. But, thankfully, I've been able to complete my game for this jam on time. Thanks Brackeys' community.

Very nice art, simple but clear mechanics.

Bamboo printer goes brrrrrrrrrr.

Very fun game. I love the art  and the music fits well with the game. I still don't get the attack system but just pressing the bite systems works for me. I got to the point where I got so much bamboo factories that I'm producing more bamboo even if I'm buying upgrade which basically made me invincible. Very good game though. Good Luck on the jam :D

I love the art style and I really like the message of not being able to 'control' animals. This is amazing for a solo project. It would've been fun though if there was a bit more to do. But otherwise, great job!

Submitted

The art is awesome! Unfortunately, the gameplay is too easy and you can't do much as player.. Also, you should scale up the bamboos that are closer to the "camera" and scale down the ones that are "far away". The bigger ones should move faster and the others slower. That's just a tip if you want to consider.. Other than that, the game looks amazing!

ah! ty for the feedback! unfortunately, theres only so much a solo beginner game dev can do in just under 5 days. (i forgot bout jam untill the 3rd day lmao)

This is one of the best-looking games I have seen in this jam! Amazing graphics! If you don't mind me asking, what do you use to make the artwork?

Developer

haha! I dont mind at all! I use Krita! heres a link if ya want :) (its free :D) https://krita.org/en/download/krita-desktop/(this for windows) u can searchc up for mac :D ty!

I have to say this, this game look awesome, really nice, the only problem that i have with the game is that is really easy, but other than that you made a really creative nice game.

Developer

tysm!

The art and theme of this game was so much fun! Great job and keep up the good work!

Good job on your game!

I survived extinction with 220k bamboos :S

I really liked the art and the music. Really nice manu designs with the bamboo fonts.

Wish there was more time to decide before the fights but that's what the pause menu is for ;) You can pause and then select an option.

I'm not sure what is the benefit of having more pandas.

I also liked the parallax effect of bamboo sticks. You could try to flip some of them horizontaly as well as randomly slightly change their angle and/or proportions and/or color similarly how you change the size to make them a bit different from eachother.

Developer

haha! lemme try respond to question  lol. 

thx!

lol 220K bamboos are alot. haha great job.

thx!

hahha. the game is sorta a reaction game too! 

its a reaction ngame so another poin is that they are stronger toggether so then they eaither deal more damage, or when u arent fast enought to fight a predator, u can still win the battle since u have enough pandas to live.


haha im new to unity and parallax effect took me long lmao.. ty for ur kind words!

Submitted(+1)

Really nice art mate I love it. I like that the concepts of you games, they are very original and fit the theme very well. As only complaint I think that there isn't time enough to know what action choose when a predator appears. Anyways, very good job, congratulations.

Developer

thx for the feedback! though the game sorta is a reaction game... lol

The art is great in this. The music and color choice really feed into the kind of hopeless vibe for the pandas. It’s a little sad early on but that goes away as you start to increase their numbers. I got to the boss fight and thought I had the mechanics figured out, but I must have done something wrong because I got a Hunger screen after that. Maybe that one costed more bamboo than the ones leading up to it? Either way, fantastic game, especially for your first jam. Definitely something to be proud of.

Here’s my game if you’d like to give it a play.

Developer

haha! awesome! nice job! I'm pretty sure it says how much the slash/trick/bite costs. Thx for playin! oh yeah ill try ur game too! looks clean! ty again

Developer

This is my 2nd month of GAME DEVELOPEMENT! Thx you all for playing my game :D It's greatly appreciated. I've checked out all your games and played/rated them too! thx again, and god luck on the placements :D

The game is not very interesting because there is never a level up, the prices are always the same. Perhaps it would have been necessary to increase the price and change the possibilities of purchase or factory improvement.

I saw only one enemy, after that, I only had proposals for "fighting".

However, the game is very very beautiful and relaxing. Parallax is very well handled. Great job !!

Developer(+1)

ok! ill be sure to add some stuff! thx for the feedback! though hopefully u didnt give a terible rating... :) :| :( :| :)

Wow! I liked it. The game is so beautiful and the audio makes it even more beautiful. The sound of flies is a little detail, but all the little details make this game great! The only negative side is that in this game it's too easy to go far. You should increase the price of the factories because I got to 100k bamboo very quickly =) Good job

Submitted(+1)

Off the bat. music and art are really good! The concept is pretty simple but fun to play for a sec. Being able to make a panda evolve and get 300 pandas to follow me. pretty cool! Would be awesome if you checked my game out as well amigo

Developer(+1)

haha! ik you! we played eachothers games in btp jam! of course ill play and rate ur game :D
