How does you game fit the theme?
You are Tommy. A little child who just wants to sit at home and play Playstation and watch D3kryption on YouTube (shameless plug). His parents hop him into the car and tell him he's going to spend a few hours at the park. But he doesn't want that. He is pursaded into going by his father, Gerald, mentioning about the danger in the park. That the evil Ork Pigman is terroising it and not many people can help. The child being...you know a child, takes on this task himself and decides to become Sir Poop... (the child named the character) Travel the lands, stop Pigmans spawns and resuce the kingdom.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code, made / hired / recorded the voices and a few of the animations. The models were from Synty and other packs I've bought in the past.

This is so great! I love how the the low poly assets are assembled in the scene. One feedback though for that is probably you can delete some files/assets not used due to the large file size hahaha. Though this is somehow expected in these kind of games. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for the advice. I didn't think of it. (Legit didn't)
I did try a plugin that was supposed to highlight unused assets but I couldn't get it to work :(

I love the cutscenes with the custom voice lines. Unfortunately, the controls are not so good. But I played through it nevertheless, and once you get the hang of it, the controls are manageable.

I had to laugh a little that the boy in the car has a stubble beard, even though he is a child. =D

Developer

Cracking comment! Thank you :D 
Made me laugh.
Yeah the controls let this one down :(

Submitted(+1)

The cut scene is well polished and I love it. But the control is kinda inconsistent and buggy. Sometimes right click the enemy the attack didn't follow along. Sometimes Tommy just faces the ground eating dirt. Adding some other fighting mechanics would be better.

Developer

Hey. thanks for playing my game.

Fully agreed. With Tommy eating dirt it was something to do with barrells. Need to fix it next time :D

The attacking was odd. I could not for the life of me figure out the bug :(

But thanks for playing :D

Meanwhile, i’m watching your devlogs on the jam and enjoying a lot!

Developer

Oh awesome. Thank you very much for that <3

They intro was definitely the most interesting! I guess you sent your whole family to voiceacting :D

The main game was quite simple and the fights we're pretty easy. But it was still fun walking around!

Maybe try to add some depth to the bashing with enemies.

Good entry!

Feel free to play/rate our game here -> https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1420718

After the voting ends, we publish the 1.1 Version with bugfixes and improvements :) Thanks!

Developer

Hey,

Thanks for playing my game! 

I really do need to improve the attacking.


Thanks :D

Looking good! Kinda wish there was a way to skip the beginning cutscene so I don't have to rewatch it for future playthroughs; other than that, pretty good!

Developer(+1)

Hey,

That means you played my game multiple times :P


Thank you :D

Really nice looking game, the visuals are impressive. I enjoyed the cut scene and the voice lines throughout well done! Maybe if you can add more mechanics it would be perfect. The enemies didn't fight back most of the time, I'm saying that just in case they should and it's a bug, so you know.

Developer

Hey!
 Thanks for playing the game. Very nice of you :)

Ermm I think it was a bug with them not attacking. Hopefully my next jam will improve this :D

really fun game! the boss at the end got stuck and i couldn't move 

Developer

Sorry to hear that. how did you get stuck?

Submitted(+1)

I REALLY LOVE  the scenes that you wrote and I also love the idea, sounds, and graphics. I would like improvement on the pvp system however, other than that, GREAT game, could you please try mine also? I REALLY NEED ratings. Thank you. :)

Cool, an Unreal game! I really enjoyed the intro, laughed at "No one likes Kyle", his little adult clothes and I liked running around in the world! But as many have stated, the battles could be improved. A bit unresponsive, and the orcs weren't really that into fighting me. Great job, nonetheless!

Developer

I'm glad you had fun. Thank you!  It means a lot :D

Very nice-looking game! I liked the animated intro and the theme implementation, but the gameplay (especially the combat) felt kinda unreliable. Still, it's a solid game as for your first time in unreal.

Developer

Thank you!

Yeah the combat failed this one sadly :(

But thanks for playing and the nice comments :D

Submitted(+1)

nice intro! very good game!! But you should give the player more hitpoints

Developer

Agreed. I couldn't balance it very well. I did add in the barrels as health but it wasn't very clear :)

Submitted(+1)

An interesting approach to the theme but combat rendered the game challenging. I gathered every orc in the level together and they sat there staring at the PC. Not sure what kind of bugs messed up combat logic, but hopefully they are resolved.

Developer

Thank you for playing my game!
I agree with you on the combat. I think it let it down, but I'm glad you enjoyed the other bits :)

Submitted(+1)

The world building and story telling you've accomplished is fantastic!

The combat seemed a little too easy, it seemed like I wasn't being attacked. I was a child though so I guess there are laws against that haha.

Loved the voice acting and cinematics too. Very well done!

Would really appreciate some feedback on my own entry if you find the time :)

Beautiful bright graphics and nice voice acting! I liked the cutscene in the beginning establishing the situation. The combat just needs a little work, it seems to decide whether or not you actually attack.

Developer

Yeah there was a bug in the combat that I spent way too many hours trying to solve. Really odd one.
Thanks for playing :D

Submitted(+1)

Encountered quite alot of bugs like having the goblin swing after death. and having them most of the time just not retaliating and just standing there getting beaten to a pulp. but Still Kind of fun and I enjoyed Watching the stream for its Development.

Developer

Thank you my friend :D Here's to making the next game even better!

Really liked this game, I've always been a fan of ARPGs since I was a kid. Really reminded me of a rudimentary version of the old ones like OG diablo or Dungeon Siege. Combat was slow and methodical, but pretty simple once you get the controls and timing down. Pretty decent entry overall, great use of assets! 

Developer(+1)

Thank you!
This comment put a huge smile on my face :D

I'm glad you liked it!

Loved all the cinematics and the audio part on it, it was very well done !

Also, the humor was fitting well with the storyline, very funny !

Great game !

Developer

Thank you!
I do enjoy making cinematics :D
