Are you talking about the animation for the activation of a module ?
For this one I juste recreate the frames in photoshop, creating a little rectangle inside the module, then made it bigger etc etc until it reach the border of the module (I did the same process of animation by hand for my previous game 😀)
Thanks for your feedback, I'm definitly thinking on how to integrate nicely a "tutorial".
Feel free to check my progress on twitter 😉

Oh okay I see, so you created the animation before adding it to Gdevelop!
Yes that's the animation I talked about, it looks really swell!
In your case, I think that the tutorial should include:
1. How to win the game (Seriously, with so much things to use your energy for, I don't exactly get what I'm supposed to do, maybe it's obvious and I don't get it but still I think "rebuild your engine / spaceship" with so many different actions to make and no explanation of what they do can make things confusing the first times you play.
2. What resources are useful for (I got a counter and I think there are actions that turn energy into resources but why am I collecting them?)
3. Short description of every action possible (maybe just smth like "adds 2 energy" would be enough, and ik there are some explanations but still I think it's kinda like "ok I get it but why is that useful?".
PD: If you don't want to make a long boring tutorial, maybe you could add a diary with the result of your actions from the day before and an explanation of why they make chances to win higher or lower, following the same principles I mentioned here.
Hope this can help you. Have a nice day.

Thanks for the details feedback,
I'll definitly take that into account (and I already did it in the post jam version of the game. If you want to know more, check this : https://twitter.com/LumbirBwut/status/1496880601273491458)
To give you an answer on how to play, your objective is to : Get 60 🎲 for 🤖 and 60 ⚙️ for 🚀
For that you'll need to use your ⚡🎲 to directly convert into ⚙️ OR depending of the value on the 🎲 to activate special power/rules.
To give you an example, here below a capture of the left module :
- The first rule transform your "🎲 value" + 2 into ⚙️ for the 🤖.
- The second one will give you supplementary 🎲 to play with, each turn; if you succeed to give 7⚡ points (for eg : One 🎲 with value 4 + one 🎲 with value 3)
- The third one auto aliment the current module, which mean it will not need 🎲 anymore to function (to activate this rule/power, you need to give it a specific 🎲 value, here a 4).
Does this kind of explanation enough do you think ?

Thanks a lot for the feedbacks, it's so nice to hear that you like the music a friend of mine composed 😀

You raise a lot of relevant points, thanks a lot for the feedbacks 😀
Sure the game is hard, I'm actually reworking a bit the interface/menu/tuto to make it clearer on how to play and how to finaly construct your spaceship. I may do a post on the jam discussion to tell people about it !
You need to rebuild your spaceship and yourself, for that you'll need to use your energetic dice to active some of your modules that will little by little rebuild it. To give you hints of what to do, at start you must focus on getting new dice to increase your range of possibilities. Once it's done, you'll have access to the central module which have more powerfull option to rebuild you and your spaceship.
Dude, I don't mean to be a jerk but like.... chill, people are playing and rating your game don't worry. I've seen like 5 of your comments where you don't give a feedback or substance you just beg for ratings. Rating is important but none of us made a game just for ratings we created art we are proud of. Respect other people's art enough to be sincere.

Sure it is, but once you find ways to optimise your moove, it is way easier than expected.
Thanks for the feedback 😀

I love the sound effect too !
You get to loose if you don't get 60 ⚙️ for you and your 🚀.
I'll definitly work on accessibility for my game as you aren't the first to mention comprehension difficulty.
