Unfortunately, I can't understand the point of this game but looks great and promising. Keep going and I hope it will be a hit :)

Not a fan of the rotating text but this is a good game.  One that begs to be expanded and to become to new amazon training program :)

Developer

Thank you  : )

Submitted

a tutorial would be cool. other than that, pretty impressive! keep it on

(i did not beat the game, but i will try it again when i have more time ^^)

The game is confusing. The way it greeted with a wall of texts is not a really good way to start.

I don't know what is the objective in this game. I don't know what determine the win condition. All I did was move and reset. I've try reading the descriptions and mail message in-game and I still feel like not progressing.

The writing needs improvement. Not the grammar but the format and layout and style. For the in-game message I can understand people would write mail like that but as a game you can make it unrealistic and assist the player by changing the color of some important sentence so the player can understand the main point right away without reading the whole paragraph. Description In the web page is all in one line and its really bad.

But I admire the art in this game. That is the only good thing I find about this game. And its not too bad for the first game. Good job publishing it.

Submitted

I like the art style a lot!

Developer

Thank you I love making pixel art!

Submitted

Was able to beat it, the drone is gets way to much influence from the first round then will never really take any input from what you are doing after that. But other then that this was a nice entry and attempt at something very different!

Developer

Thank you so much I had fun making it!

Submitted

Very nice submission. You managed to make a game that works and plays well. Thats more than most people can say they have done. 
The game could use some clear instructions on what the objective or goal of the game is but even without that it was fun just to fly around. Keep up the good work!

Submitted

A bit confusing, but still a pretty cool game.

Developer

I have never been on a game jam before so I had not known how to make it less confusing(because it is a really complicated game) but I will try to make my games more understandable in the future. 

Submitted

I'm not 100% sure what's going on with the game. A better game tutorial should explain better the mechanics.

Still a solid try, keep it up

Developer

Thank you  for your feedback I think that is a lesson I can learn for another jam. Also if you tell me what exactly what you were having trouble with I can help you with that. 

Submitted

Cool game, I'm not entirely sure what happened but I got the drone to land on the porch!

Developer

Congratulations! Good job.

Developer

Hey there this is the developer of the game with a few tips for playing it:

1. First impressions are very important if you don't do well in the first round you will have a hard time putting it back on track

2. After you have landed on the porch don't press 'Evolve' immediately wait a few seconds so the red drone knows to stay on the porch for a bit.

That's all for now if you run into any problems please comment on them and tell me if you won.

I'm unable to view the game page, did you forget to publish the page?

Developer

Hello, I am so sorry about that I forgot to publish it. I fixed it I do hope it works for you now.

Submitted

Yes it works now! I tried a few times but couldn't quite manage to get the drone to land but it's a very interesting concept to try to teach automated systems to do their job like this lol.
