Unfortunately didn't run for me too well. :(
Hi, yeah I noticed around the time of upload that there was issues with running depending on what machine or browser I was using. I think theres an issue with the version of Godot that i used that makes converting to html unstable. That, or my code is very ropey. Maybe both. We live and learn. Thanks for trying it though.
Hey, which version of Godot did you use? I've heard things about it being a bit iffy for browser games.
Godot 4.2. Looking online it was recommended in 4.0 that earlier versions of Godot should be used for web games. I'm not sure if that's still the case with 4.2.
This was really fun! It was pretty addicting trying to figure out all the solutions to the minigames, and I always love the stories of the failed assassinations on Castro. I'm not sure if it was just because I was playing from the browser but the instructions were sometimes cut off from the bottom of the screen. Great job overall!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for letting me know about the level text, i must of messed up the positioning on some of the levels.
I really enjoyed this game. I like that the instructions at the bottom of the screen told me what my goal was. I could not figure out how to switch the poisoned drink, but I really enjoyed the game and played several rounds. Great job!
Im glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, i realised after i released the game how unclear the beer mission is, and how its the only mini game that requires you to drag the two items into a certain position. In hindsight id of done that one differently. Thanks for playing.
Very nice for your first game in Godot! I think it's so cool that we both chose to do a game on Fidel Castro but yours is from the perspective of Fidel and mine is from the perspective of the CIA xD You did some minigames that I would have never been able to come up with. Great job! Here's my VOD: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2077274889
Thanks for playing. I enjoyed your VOD a lot.
Head's up, I tried to play the game and it crashed my browser three times.
Hi, thanks for letting me know. After playing it on a few different computers I think there's just an issue with the way the game plays on certain browsers. I've added that to the description and added files for linux and windows download.
