Really interesting and fun game! I included it in my compilation video series for the Clicker Jam Spring, if you’d like to check it out. :)
Thanks to everyone who reviewed the game!
Really nice game!
Thanks! Anything stand out to you as particularly interesting/fun/annoying/unbalanced?
The art could have been nicer and you could explian it in less words, but these are really minor.
The only thing I disliked was the wall of texts, but understandable during game jams. Also make the right side arrow and button the same color, it confused me at first lol
Overall nice game, very unique compared to other clicker games, adds new mechanics to keep the game fresh with multiple endings! I liked the way the game introduced the new mechanics as well, doesn't overload the player with information.
The mis-match of colors was originally a mistake, but after a lot of back-and-forth I decided to keep it. There's a subtle message in it that supports the one given by the fact that unlocks on one side still work when the other team is ascendant. There are also historical reasons why the red color in particular cross-contaminates between sides.
I think the solution, and let me know what you think of this DF, is for the menu items to change visually when you have enough points to buy them. So the first time you get 100 Left points, for example, the top Left menu item gets a golden border and maybe subtly blinks between two similar shades of pink. Ditto 100 Right points - top Right menu gets golden border, etc etc.
This was really cool. I liked that the clicking mechanics changed over time and I feel like I got a secret ending.
Nice! Did you get the secret the first time through? My playtester figured it out about three seconds after getting the right hand normal ending.
yep first time. I was expecting it to break or something lol
Well, you did "break ~the game~" in a way...
;-)
