Congrats on your first game!
Pros:
- A turn based puzzle game where you are not fighting your enemies but rather avoiding them lead to some innovative gameplay elements/puzzles that I haven't really seen in other games. There's a lot of potential areas of exploration a game designer could do in this space.
- The goofy/playful nature of the game helped with the game's overall appeal. I don't think I would have enjoyed it anywhere near as much if it was a serious game about a mutant turtle searching for pizza... The humor of the game really sells it.
Cons:
- The controls left a lot to be desired. Having the mouse only be used to click the 'end turn' button felt like a waste of a hand. It would have been nice to have the game be playable with one hand given it's control simplicity. Also gotta be careful using Ctrl and WASD movement in web games. In most browsers Ctrl+W closes the current tab.
- The game was overall too easy. Most hazards could be avoided simply by waiting, and when waiting didn't work, the large heath pool gives the ability to just barrel your way though most things without much forethought.
You should be very proud of what you've built here for the jam! Look forward to seeing what you make for future jams if you do more.
