my oh my ! What an addictive little game !
I have just one note (I thought I had none but I remembered something) :
It's not gameplay related but I found the music loop to be slightly too short maybe ?
Anyways it's a reaaaaaally nice and addicting game. I love it ! The visuals, the music, the sounds, everything is really nice ! Great job :)
well actually, I went back to the game and just listened to the music, I think the loop is long enough, it's just that it's not seamless, so this might be a godot/web/file import issue, what I did in another jam to """"""fix""""" this issue was to litteraly loop the song in a software like audacity and export the project with a big-ass music file that lasts like 10mn ahah
if you still think the loop is too short, I suggest adding music sequences with less instruments at the end/beginning of the loop or to switch up some notes for a little while and go back to the original melody and loop, it's not an easy thing ahah also what you can do is just make multiple songs and shuffle them but within the timeframe of a gamejam, if you're new to music, it might be hard to do !
wow this is really helpful! i really appreciate you taking the time to not only play our game but also with the feedback (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) will def keep these considerations in mind moving forward. we used royalty free music we found online but definitely feel like composing/sound design is something we should learn as we continue making games!
my pleasure ! music composition is hard because it's a whole different way of expression than programmation or even visual arts, so it's kinda hard when you begin, I've been learning (mostly by practicing, I've learned just a little bit of music theory) for like 2-3 years now and I still can't always do what I set my mind to, for example say I want to make a happy song, I don't always succeed in making something that sounds happy ahah but once you start and if you enjoy it, you'll have a great time and the learning curve is nice ! And then you get to enjoy your own music so that's nice.
For sound effects, I just started like a month and a half ago for our very first game jam and it was really fun, you get to think of everything around you in a different way ! Like, we had a conveyor belt in our first game (mirror mirror) and it was tricky to think of something that would make the sound of that, but I ended up using an old school coffee grinder and it works fine I think lol
those 2 are really different in some ways, even tho there are skills that can be used in both ! I still feel like i'm a beginner so I don't know if those advices are really great but that's what I think ! (Also imposter syndrome is a bitch ahah)
