Nice small game but A few more levels would have been nice.
Also a small image of how the object will look like near it's name on the list would also have been an amazing addition.
Sometimes the player used to hid behind the lanes.
A mask on the player's face would have given the game a bit more visuals.
Do rate our game as well
Thank You.

Thanks for the feedback!

We had so many plans and ideas for more levels and more visuals, but of course with limited time this is what we achieved for now :) face masks would definitely add to the pandemic feeling.

Images on the list is a cool idea (will also help the game be a bit less language dependent).

Nice Work!  I loved the idea,  Visuals were great and for me, it was challenging. However shop customers were a little bit aggressive ;)

Developer

Thanks for playing! Haha yea we've had the feedback quite a lot. We will have to think of a way to make them a bit less of 'bulldozers'.

The visaul are great! Especially the characters, they really stand out!


The game needs some tuning. The level is a bit too big, and the other customers are really pushy!


The idea is fun, good job :)

Developer

Thanks for playing! We're glad you enjoyed the visuals, a lot of care was put into them :)

Yep we agree some tuning is definitely in order. Haha yea the pushing mechanic is a bit harsh. Thanks for the feedback!

You need to make this into a full app, with multiple levels increasing in complexity. And eventually when things slowly start returning to "normal" add more situations, like going to work, using public transport, going to other shops and generally whatever it is we were all doing before this craziness, haha. You guys, I laughed so much with your game. What a brilliant concept. I wish there was a category based on the pandemic because you score 1000 points on that one. Maybe you should have saved this for another game jam that chooses Covid19 for its theme, ha ha. 

My small criticism was with the controls, this being an isometric type of game, and the way the map is tilted diagonally, I found that I always had to keep two keys held down at all times to walk in straight lines and navigate the map... Also maybe the camera could have been a bit higher to help with viewing angles, but it wasn't so much of a huge issue. 

Good effort. Again, make this a full game!

Developer

Hi CodingRook, we really appreciate your enthusiasm for our game! And glad you enjoyed it :)

Thanks for the criticism, we can see how walking diagonally all the time is not ideal. We thought isometric view would suit the game art best; but maybe some clever level design can make it easier walking around.

For now we are a bit sick of working on it haha but maybe we'll come back to it. I like your idea of expanding into other parts of life..

Awesome concept and the artwork is brilliant! It really captures something of the time we live in.  Had fun playing it!

Great idea for a game, I like it, I'd personally make it so that the germ meter increases slowly over time and remove the timer altogether. Thanks for feedback on my game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! That is a good idea, we might implement that if we work on the game again :)

What a fun and fitting game  for these times. Love the Graphics  and game play . the  only comment   is i found it a but frustrating  getting pushed  around by other shoppers,  i   think you can get away with not having the collision   but that's just a thought.  But very well executed :-)

Developer

Thanks for your kind feedback :-) 

Haha yea the pushing is kind of frustrating but added to the challenge of trying to get around. But maybe there is a more pleasant way of presenting the challenge - maybe by getting full of germs when walking through the other shoppers
