Really fun game! I played it a couple of times to see the different upgrades and stuff, and honestly I never really got bored! The gameplay loop is interesting, rewarding, the graphics are really cute and the music is perfectly fitting... Awesome game, congratulations =)

Thank you ! 

I like creating "content oriented" games for JAM submissions. Usually content games are about designing a robust code structure that is easily modulable, it's a pretty challenging task but once done correctly, you'll be able to create content very easily. This way even if you have technical difficulties during the JAM, you ensure a game with decent content, and have a some time to polish everything.

I am with you!  I been trying to do that with every bit of code I write.  Excellent advice!

Good idea, you need to hone the mechanics of the game and make more events.

Thanks for the feedback !

Adding events is a pretty neat idea, I kept on thinking about more blessings and enemies, I didn't think of adding more "global" features.

make a more comfortable fight at night, and it will already be much more interesting :)

Just some trial and error, an bunch of JAMs and you'll get to it !

I played your game like yesterday I believe, and the game concept was amazing, so you're already halfway there, the last bits are just polishing tricks

Game is fun to play but a bit difficult to me (I'm noob xD). Art is impressive! Nice work!

LOVED THE GAME! it was so addictive and i also think it has a lot of potential, you could work on the game more and release it on mobile

also i'm not a noob xD

Sacrifice
Reply
Mathieu SchmerberDeveloper1 year ago

Thanks that means a lot to me, especially as I was wondering about making mobile version !

Tbh the game is pretty much impossible to win, the best I did way night 13/15, so I'm a noob too by the game standards x)

Fun game! I love the 2d perspective and the upgrades are fun (cow is mvp). Also love the artstyle and music is very nice.

Cow's definitely MVP hahaha, initially I wanted to have a manageable loot rate and make cows pretty low, but didn't have time for that so in the end you can just get it on a 50-50 chance :)

Nice! I love 2D art in a 3D space, this was well executed. I had fun playing this. My only feedback is that the camera was kind of crazy, made me feel dizzy after a while. Great game!

This is a really well put together package! It strikes me as comedy that the paladin kills waaaaay more townsfolk than the evil men who come at night - good fun!
