The scenery is incredible, very beautiful.
Im cooked.
When you keept pressing A and D, the flying thing jumps. but still very cool concept! really liked it!
Hi! I ran into this issue too, I think it's a matter of an animation looping back to the down position and vice versa when it starts playing. I will update as soon as I can, thanks for playing :)
For now, it doesnt happen if you tap A/D instead of hold I think.
Just fixed this bug, should work better now!
Loved it! Especially the charming artwork.
A few suggestions, if you don't mind: the scrap count text could be in a different color, right now it blends too much into the background; a progress bar to show how much of the day you've covered could be a nice quality-of-life feature; if you hold down A or D too long, the trawler suddenly jumps to face the other direction, not sure if this was intended gameplay though :)
Great work here!
Thanks for your feedback! Once jam is over I think I will change some stuff like the text, and a day ui too! Also I think the jumping is from the animation of rotating the ship looping lol, it's a small fix, but one I will defo update!
Hi! Was able to fix that A/D Steering bug, and change the text colour, should work now :)
Extremely atmospheric game!
I love the mood and made me feel really cozy, though (as it is a case with gamejam games quite a lot) it would be much better while finished up with everything you had in mind :D Having more interactions based on what we buy or some gameplay changes over time would really help find it more enjoyable.
Would love to see it as gathering resources and upgrading your 'base' for an unpleasant coming event or something :D
Anyway, great gamejam submission and I would love to see you work on it further!
Thank you for feedback! Those were my ideas when brainstorming, but I had to shorten the game (as you would have to for 2 days dev time).
In the future I'd like to add stuff like what you said, they sound hella cute, plus I will redo the input map once jam is over, cus 3 buttons limits features a lot.
And as your idea for upgrading the base for an upcoming bad event, smth like Frostpunk where a big storm would reach your base within a certain time I think would fit!
Once again thanks for playing :)
Ye I know! Making a game on a gamejam is really hard. It's still very impressive what you ended up with!
Also Frostpunk was also something I had in mind xd
Have a good day!
You too!
I gave 5/5 stars to the Use of the theme, that was very smart
Thanks sm!
