Super funny. Well done.

Submitted

Pretty funny but not a lot of depth to the gameplay, just throwing cheese. I did enjoy it though. I think it could be cooler if you had different types of cheese you could use that did different things.

Submitted

It's funny at some levels. Care to give me a feedback on my game? Thanks!

Submitted

was a pretty fun and wierd game. I realy enjoyed it. the only downside is that when you do destroy a UFO you have to wait some time for the next one to spawn. but besides that a very cool game

Submitted (1 edit)

The cows are very cute!

The concept is rather... different? It doesn't make much sense but it's funny enough. I appreciate the "KAPOW" effects when cheese hits the UFOs, though it felt a bit weird when the effects came down as if affected by gravity.

I didn't get any music or sound effect. That could really help enhance the mood.

The gameplay got boring real fast and the fences made some cows rather hard to protect. It could use some upgrades or at least being able to dash through the map.

The graphics are good. Especially the cows.

A funny concept that could use more polish.

I Like The Game it is Great Game But I recommend add some Upgrade to survive More Time and add Some Type of Task

Submitted

I’ve only seen games where you play as an alien and your goal is to abduct as many cows as possible. It was fun to finally have a different gameplay! Shooting with cheese was great :D

Submitted

Interesting concept, but the gameplay is a bit boring

Submitted

great gameplay, a bit dark maybe. You could say, the aliens weren't "cheesed to meet you".

Submitted

great game concept, there are some bugs but the game is cool
check out my game too!

i like the game because you can throw cheese! we also made a game with cheese, so we cheese-playmakers should stick together!

Developer(+1)

CHEEESE!

Submitted(+1)

Fun game, but after a while I left with only one cow and UFOs stopped raiding me, which is weird. Also movement didn't feel good to me. 
Hit effects are great xD.

Developer

Oof, we were so sure there wasn't any bugs. Programmers curse it seems.

If  you could, in what way was the movement not good?

Submitted(+1)

Happens to the best of us :)

About the movement. I rechecked your game because I was sure that something went wrong when I played it, but didn't find anything. The only thing is that it would be nice to have a jump button. It was quite annoying to run around these fences. But maybe it was intended.

Developer

Thanks SmelJey,

Well if it went wrong once, we gotta count it on a list of bugs lol XD.

That is a super random game, but so funny. Great work! I don't know how but I got the Cheese easter egg :D Great job :)

Developer

It was definitely my most random game I've done so far.

I'm guessing you got the first cheese easter egg, which is simply throwing cheese at the door ;)

Submitted(+1)

Love the little cartoon effects when hitting the ship with cheese! The music was nice, I wish the environment had some more stuff, skybox was really nice too, great work!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback and lovely words!

Clearly those aliens needed more dairy in their diet !
Funny games ! Fighting those pesky aliens to protect mah cows !

Developer(+1)

Thanks, we treated this as a 72h jam since all of us had commitments, so we wanted to make something fun, laidback and polished.

Submitted

I thought it was a funny game and could have some promise but there were a couple of things I found annoying. I managed to shoot four or five ufos down but often found that I couldn't hit them when they were high up and by the time they came in to range there wasn't enough time to kill it before it had abducted a cow. One suggestion would be to increase the range but increase the time until being able to throw again. It would mean you could still hit them but you'd have to line up your shots better. 

I lasted quite a while and had 10 cows left and then all of a sudden there was 10 ufos and all my cows were gone.

The area was a little bit big, could maybe do with being smaller and more manageable.

Developer

Hey HoleyGhost. Thanks for the review. Now that two people have talked about the range, it will definitely be something we look at later.

Haha yeah, our code pretty much meant by wave 7 the manager will spawn spaceships = cows. We'll definitely be changing that.

I was thinking of making a difficulty selector with different map sizes later down the line. Would you say that this map would be classed as hard or medium?

Submitted

my poor cows noo , nice sky btw , was fun to play ;)

Developer(+1)

Cheers man glad you enjoyed it I lost my cows as well :(

Submitted(+1)

Really cool! The idea is very interesting! I also liked how hitting the door on the house causes someone to say "cheese" (found that funny lol). Some feedback, I think it could have been more obvious that UFOs were in the sky abducting cows. I actually tried shooting the cheese at the cows and wondering if I had to kill them lmao. I bulletdrop on the cheese throw also made it a bit challenging to hit the UFOs (or i just suck). With more time this could be a really great game!

Developer(+1)

Haha glad you found 1 of the 2 James May easter eggs. A friend of ours wanted us to put James May in the game so we did.

As for the ufo in the sky, we had a sound cue start every wave. Perhaps we'll also try adding bigger lights to the ship! Thanks for the suggestion.

We experimented with allowing the cheese to be thrown further but we found it became too easy and only started being challenging by wave 5. The cheese was intended to only reach the ships when they are attacking the cows and not simply roaming. But we'll see if we can make it more challenging while allowing the player to shoot further.

Submitted(+1)

I like the concept. Some more variety would really make this game reach the next level. :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I agree, we wanted an ammo counter and perhaps upgrades.

Submitted(+1)

Gets a bit repetitive after some time, but the theme implementation is fun. Good job

Developer

Thank you! We really wanted to make sure we had a complete and polished game. Unfortunately we had to cut features to make that happen.
