An interesting, although a little bit too short, entry.

I recorded myself playing the game: https://youtu.be/nJbK0Jml-Xc

Some random thoughts of mine:

  • As I said, ~8 minutes of the gameplay are a downside for me. I wanted to play this game for some more. :D

  • I enjoyed the game mechanics. There are glasses, different enemy types, keys, landscape objects that shape the level. Although I have a feeling that they were underused. It’s cool not to overstay the welcome, but hey, I think this game could entertain people for longer time! It could have 20 levels with the same gameplay elements combined together without feeling boring or repetitive.

  • I like some small details like the NPCs being able to move the player. This is also a mechanic that can be used in the game level designs (and you did use it at least in one of the levels!)

  • The graphics are cute :3

  • Maybe some randomized level generation could be an interesting mode for this. Felling in love should be considered to be a game over for the run. So you try to complete as many levels as possible without “dying”.

  • I personally think that the music shouldn’t restart with every level.

  • Is it intended that most (all?) sounds are played with a slight delay? I think it’s about half of the second or something like that.

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to rate and play our game. I think ideally we wanted to push about 15-20 Levels but due to the fact that we had to make the submission on time we weren't necessarily able to put in all the levels we wanted to. The sounds were meant to have a small delay but that is good feedback, we will incorporate the feedback in builds after the jam. The music restarting every level was a bug we discovered after the submission and couldn't fix it in time. Hope you had fun and thank you once again for the detailed feedback!

Very clever concept! It reminds me on how Splatoon refreshes a lot the FPS formula, here you are doing a similar reinterpretation but on 2D shooters! Great experience, i liked it a lot :D

Developer

Glad you enjoyed :D Thank you

Nice little game. I figured it was insta-fail when you saw one of the animals which didnt turn out to be the case. "Thanks for the assets Kenny!"

Developer

Thank you!

Our initial thought was insta-kill, but we iterated a lot on it. When playtesting, we realized that insta-kill was too punishing, and then tweaked it so that it was a little more forgiving.

Really cute and neat game! I like the idea of of a reverse stealth t game. Neat concept and good execution, nice job!

Developer(+1)

thanks a lot!!

well that's an unexpected interpretation of the theme!!

this is a simple but quite nice game, which also spreads awareness about the dangers of love at first sight XD

well done!! :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback! We are very passionate about spreading awareness far and wide 😂😂

Developer

Thank you so much!

A very good concepts and interesting gameplay. Perfect implementation of the cliche theme.

I found it sometimes a bit too easy to avoid eye contact. maybe you could make it more difficult to only allow walking in the direction of sight?

Developer

That's a great idea! We will try that as well.

Whata lovely game :)

kind of like a reverse stealth game. Got to say this seems to make it easy since I have full control of my sight or that might be just level design.

Developer

Thank you! We got to the level design at the very end, which is why our levels don't seem as interesting. Hopefully spending a little more time on them, we can come up with levels with a higher difficulty curve.

I really like this game! I hope you guys make more levels! That was fun!! Also loved the interpretation for the theme!! Most excellent!!

Interesting interpretation of the theme. The graphics are cute, the music is a bit repetitive although nice, and the sound effects are top. If I must say anything, I managed to skip most levels by moving close to a wall while pointing the mouse at it. But this is a solid foundation for a start. Nice entry, congrats!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback. We realised very late that wall hugging was an easy hack, and did not get enough time to tweak our levels. Hopefully, in the future we can come up with more interesting levels.

nice game! Very cute mechanic!!

Developer

That's a great game. I love the puzzles and the premise. I especially love the premise. I could think of ways to build on the game and at the same time it works on its own.

Developer

thank you so much for your kind words!

Such a great interpretation, I loved it! The gameplay was pretty fun as well, the level design was interesting and I'm sure more could be done with this idea. Can't really think of any suggestions, nice work :)

Great entry, maybe my favorite interpretation of the theme :) Nice implementation of a 2D vision cone

Developer

That's an amazing compliment! Many thanks!

Fun game! It was cool to see the usual stealth mechanic reversed and I also loved watching the pathing on the level where the animals were moving around in a circle. Great work!

Developer

Thank you!

Loved the premise and the execution! Great reverse-stealth puzzle game! 

Thanks for not making it too hard. Its good to have a few games I can actually finish.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

Ahh this is super cute!  I loved being a cool bunny and I refuse to let some cheeky monkey get in my way!  Very enjoyable game, animations are great and that FOV was on point!

Thank you so much! :D
