Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed what I was able to get done! A lot of balancing needed but it’ll get there xD 

Very fun and goofy! love the art style and the concept in general :)

Such a cool idea! I suck at it but definitely a fun one, nice job!

No don't worry at all! I totally understand any low ratings I get because I definitely see that its not exactly a playable game in any right. I appreciate peoples honesty and it gives me more motivation to work more on it and try and get something that people like and want to play. 

I would rate my own game very low too so there is no hard feelings at all :)

Thanks! I hope so at least! I’m already working on it more and will be releasing a devlog post soon to be more open about the development :)

that’s a very good point! I’ll make note of that and will definitely work on adding a tutorial/instructions in my future development :)

Thank you! :) I’m working on it more already and I’m definitely going to make a working demo at some point when it’s in a good state :)

Yeah lack of testing and polish time really hit me this jam xD I've got loads of ideas that I have for this game so i think i'm gunna keep going with it so hopefully one day they'll have these improvements!

The style. The Addicting gameplay. The sounds. The polish it has. This is amazing, good job!

Thanks! I appreciate that! I do think i'll keep working on it too tbh as i've got a load of ideas for it now :)

Thank you! I had a massive list of like 50-100 items with different types and more scaling systems in mind but never got to those on the task list, i definitely overscoped! xD 

That exact thought with the speed went through my head right after the jam ended, it deffo feels slow and doesnt ramp up quick enough. I was gunna go for either a button to stop the clock early you could press, or have some sort of time speed-up that matches your multiplier in some way or something along those lines

Thanks! Yeah i found the audio really last minute and i definitely agree with your comment on the difficulty. If this was a month or 2 week long jam then i would've deffo had some time for fine tuning but had to wing it and pray

thanks! I’m glad you liked the game!  😊 I’ve already started working on it more and trying to make it a lot more fast paced and have more gameplay so hopefully it’ll end up being better too!

I love the idea! Its so cool and the style is well thought out with all the UI/UX stuff! Suprisingly difficult too (for myself at least) Good job overall tho! :) 

thanks! I wanted to flip it a bit and make the power ups to be random so you have to decide whether to leave it or not, and then I was intending on adding items and more attack types in different pickup types and have that be where the options are for the player to pick from 😊 unfortunately time slipped away from me and I had to focus on getting an mvp out there instead 😅 thanks for the advice on sound too! 

my art skills are probably lacking but it’s supposed to be waves shot out from it 😅 

yeah I hate I couldn’t get any sounds or particles added in time but I’ll deffo be adding all of these suggestions to the game as soon as possible and hopefully it’ll get there! Thanks for the suggestions! 😊

Yeah I didn't have much time to optimize the percentages of everything but i definitely will takethat on board and try and focus on getting the speed of the game in general higher. Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it! :) 

I've just sent in a link to the email stated, hopefully i'm all good though. My game took ages to upload and i went to the page and looked at the time and it was literally 9.37pm on the dot! xD 

Yeah i saw that, the stopping the project building after is the thing that stopped me from using it as i didnt want to leanr how to use BulletFury then have to replace it all and learn pooling too to get it to work after. Just easier for me to dive into the deep end instead :) 

Yeah ill probably stick to the pooling, the manager and the collisions being reduced and see how that goes :) 

Just a few more questions now that ive started adding these adaptions to my project.

• With the bullet manager is that still using monobehaviour? Isnt fixedUpdate a monobehaviour method?
• Is LeanPool a unity based pool or is it an asset that i need to get?

omg that’s so much help! Thank you so much! I’ll do all of those things then and give it my best try! Thanks for the help and sorry for not buying your asset 😬 (I’m a broke bi*** 🤣)

Basically yeah lol! Im gunna try doing it with pooling and instantiating stuff  through that and go from there. If its too slow then im just going to try to find optimisations i can do and hope.

Thats if someone else doesnt come on here and gives out a good easy alternative at least

I was just wondering whether anyone is using their own system for the bullet spawning other then the one given? I was thinking of making my own as i want to keep adding to the game after and not have the game not work becasue I dont have the paid version of BulletFury. 

Basically just wanted to see if people were going to do their own and if they have any good links on how to make optimised bullet spawning from scratch :) 

Thankyou so much! Im glad you liked it and the art that I was able to scrape together :D

Im glad you liked it! Some of the pumpkin stages dont give any points if you get them just as they decay so hopefully thats whats happening. I was going to make it even harder so im glad I didnt if that was the case :)

Yeah thats one of the things i should've put in instructions screen as i now realise thats not really obvious xD my bad! 

Thank you! Im so glad you like it! :) 

I've now scaled the games size way down to 960x540 so should work now hopefully.

You have to click and drag the pumpkins over to the edges, sorry that wasn’t clear.

The viewport is set to 1080p scale and the game itself is set to 1080p too. If I scale down the viewport it makes it extremely zoomed in too.

Thank you  so much! :) Im glad you liked it! 

I'll definitely be working  on it more, especially with adding way more features and levels to it!  Then after its all perfected as much as i can then hopefully I can release it :D

I liked the start intro sequence (was cool way of doing a tutorial) and also the sliding mechanic, but couldnt get the wall running to work for some reason. I was also lost for a second before i realised the shields were the collectables! xD 

Overall though i feel like it could be a good adventure type game once finished and once the player movement has been tweaked a bit! :)

Its such a cool idea and such a never before seen idea! 

I  had no idea what I was doing most of the time as the sounds were a bit difficult to distinguish them from one another but it was nice whenever i did something  right and saw the score go up! xD

The style is really cool and all looks so polished given the time worked on it. Congrats on getting the game done! :) 

I was going to make a comment on the game but this summed up my thoughts exactly! I totally agree with everything 'D.Galga' has said in this comment! Looks like it would be so good if filled out more too! :)  

Theres quite a few bugs which make a lot of the games included unplayable (for myself at least) but Its still very impressive that you were able to get so many mini games out in such a short period of time! 

Would be a really nice little game pack once all the design and bugs are developed on more though. Congrats on what you've made! :) 

Was pretty fun even without really knowing what i was doing or even why but i enjoyed trying to place as many of the same type next to each other as possible! 

With a little extra gameplay and information added to it and i think it could be a nice chill game to play :) 

Looks amazing and I cant wait to see what you can make from this! Good job on getting so much done with a finished look in such little time! If I was to give it some feedback it would be: 

- there was a lot of skills/controls/abilities given all at once and was confusing on what each one was

- I didnt really know what the goal of the game was and where to go and  (I kind of just messed about in the starting area)

Thanks for the feedback! 😊 I definitely plan to make some difficult levels where you have to figure out where and what to place and even have plans for some other puzzle features but for the time being I was limited to getting the core functionality down.

I appreciate the honest feedback though, I’ll definitely work on that 😊
