Cool login and password mechanic, but other stuff is just boring.
thanks for giving it a shot!
I'm still confused on how your game works. It looks like a good concept but maybe not suited for a game jam. The polishing is great, really liked the login/password part.
i definitely agree, I believe it’d benefit from more time to develop a more interactive interface or materials set. i do plan to return to the concept over time, hopefully shape it up and clarify the gamepkay. thanks for giving it a shot, and im sorry for any confusion!
Very unique concept. Did you use Twine? It kind of reminds of a Twine game.
Kind of confusing
sorry to hear that :( thanks for giving it a shot!
Really unique! Never thought I'd see a print-and-play game in a game jam. Don't have time to play a full round, but I love the concept and the rules seems straightforward
Thanks! I don’t have much game programming experience and the time frame was pretty short (i spent 2 of the 3 days occupied with other commitments) BUT I play tons of rpgs and i thought i could do a decent job of balancing the different mechanics in time for submission ☺️
Yeah uh, I don't get it.
totally understandable! i find longform minmax resource games fun, but definitely not to everybodys taste haha. can be a little tedious especially if you keep missing the upper point limit for new funding 😅 thanks for trying it out!
Even though I read your answer, and thought for sure I missed something, I still couldn't really get anything to happen :( Just seeing points (not that they're going up anywhere) and randomly generated bugs 🤔
Edit: Oh my god, it's a game you're supposed to print. That explains thing. Oops. Sorry. To be fair, the login screen set me up for believing something would happen!
?? Did you download the instructions? The BugBase is included as a supplement to help with tallying up bugs in the physical game. I thought for sure I listed the game as a physical game to avoid confusion about that, my bad!
edit: just saw ur edit lol!!im sorry about the confusion!
