Thoughts from playing:

  • Cool and unique game concept.
  • Background music sets the tone nicely.
  • Changing the settings of the jar is pretty intuitive.
  • The font used for dialogue is a bit hard to read. This is fine most of the time since the words can usually be determined by context, but in some cases such as with long complicated words it becomes very difficult to read. This also isn't helped by the dialogue automatically advancing.
  • An alternative to the scroll wheel for control would be nice. My browser still responds it and scrolls the page while trying to play.
  • For as long as the tutorial is it really only focused on telling me how to use the controls, most of which are self explanatory, instead of how to actually play and find the correct settings to get xenos to appear. At a low estimate there are at least 78,000 configurations for the jar so having some direction on what combinations to try and where to start would make it much easier for new people to pick up and learn.

Thank you very much for this feedback. It was my first time implementing a tutorial, and I wanted to have a go at making one, but what you say rings true, he could maybe pop up intermittently when the player is close to getting the right conditions. Also, as I mentioned before, time to balance the game was limited,which is regretful, and this of course does not help. As for the scrolling, I completely agree,some other players have since brought this up, for now you can choose the fullscreen mode and this eliminates the scrolling issue (for me at least?).


Thanks again for your in depth feedback.
