How does you game fit the theme?
The player has to find the one enemy that isn't real. Gameplay vise, the enemy has a slight mistake in his pattern and setting vise it was supposed to be a robot duck among real ducks.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
We wrote the whole code and made most of the assets from scratch, but we used free to use soundfiles.

Pretty cool game, my suggestion is that adding some catchy music would be nice.
Heya, first piece of advice I'd say is that building the game for WebGL can really help you get more views. People would rather play in-browser than download the game. And, if you build it for WebGL, people can play it on any kind of computer (Windows, Mac, and Linux) so it's an all around good thing to do. There's plenty of tutorials on youtube that are super helpful. Also yes I'm a massive hypocrite I didn't build for WebGL this time - for me it was because my game was dummy thicc and had shading and stuff so I was unsure about whether the build would even work properly.
And as for the game, here's what I noticed: The menu transitions are mega clean. The characters aren't animated but that's something really hard to do. The robot duck is a little hard to pick out at first but as I played a bit more it was easier to recognize the odd one out. Gameplay was fun after I got the hang of it.
As for the concept, I think it's interesting but isn't very deep in the current state. It'd be cool if the robot duck had a unique type of "tell" each round. For example, what if it makes robot noises but only when you get close to it? And then another time maybe all the ducks flee the player but the robot doesn't.
Nice job guys!
Ty for the review!
Just wanted to write that we actually had animations but we sadly just hadn't had the time to put them in. :c
was just looking through some of the unrated games and saw this. didn't know what to expect but it was quite fun. I loved the transitions and the art. the gameplay was also quite fun do. Those ducks be evil. Left you guys a good rating to start you off. Cool submission
