• Liels potenciāls foršai spēlītei!
• Dat me :D
• patika gameplay un noformējums
• Interesting idea, although it feels repetitive quite fast, with just different recipes to make. It turned in just waiting to fill the bar to get new recipes, and then the loop continues. Endless mode is ok, but I would like to have some levels.
• grūti saprast kas tur īsti ir jādara 
• The idea rocks, but the gameplay/controls is a bit difficult to understand

Voter's comments:

• Technical marvel, very cool retro vibes!
• Interesting idea, its morphing into rpg/bullet hell hybrid, interesting themes are being explored
• Laba noskaņa un stāsts, bet tomēr pietrūka "skip" poga un laicīgi saprast visas kontroles, lai zinātu, ka neko neesmu palaidis garām.
• It's possible that there are more to the game than I experienced, but animations a way too slow and unskippable , so I didn't got to the actual gameplay (except walking to the building that looked like a school).
• var redzēt ka ir ieguldīts darbs uz tekstiem, ideja arī ir laba spēlei
• Presentation is bomba. Love this. Props for using a unique game eninge, too!

Voter's comments:

• Interesanta galdaspēles tipa ideja. Vajag vairāk attīstīt.
• Interesting concept, needs more animation/sound for feedback
• Tik tālu ir labi, bet pietrūkst kaut kāda minimāla sfx un kaut kā pretinieks pārāk līdzīgs man. Jāturpina. Ļoti patīk, ka ir lokālais multiplayer.
• Interesting, but not quite there... first time I played I won, but did not quite understand why, probably I starved the enemy out, but I was also close to starving myself out. Next game I lost. Feels like there are things that are still unclear playing it.
• it's a game
• Coming from Ģirts, I expected something vulgar and funny, but this ended up feeling like a pretty basic programming excercise.

Voter's comments:

• Interesanta ideja, bet izskatījās diezgan nepabeigti.
• Very basic, but number go up feels good
• Jēdzīgs vizuālais. Varbūt nepavilka mani, bet tas laikam dēļ žanra. Tā citādi jau viss labi.
• When I launched the game, I did not understand what I'm supposted to do. Even pressing on the trash bin nothing happened. I though that it's broken. Then I found that I have to click on a trashbin a lot more times... It's possible that it's in too early production state, but I would like to see more stuff that I can buy, I give the reason to keep clicking.
• smuks backround, bet pārāk daudz klikšķi vajdzīgi lai kkas notiktu
  Sorry, I do not like these kinds of games. But I'll give an extra point for the nice art

Voter's comments:

• Īsti netiku uz priekšu. Prasās vairāk pieslīpēt spēli.
• Very nice art
• Labs vizuālais. Kontrole mazliet neierasta, bet varbūt vienkārši jāpiešaujās
• Could be interesting platformer, with nice art style, but it's too early in production a lot is missing and too static.
• smuks background, vienkāršā spēle ar ko kavēt laiku
• Nice art, but lacks animations. The controls are kinda floaty, but other than that looks like a pretty good start for a bigger game!
• Great non-AI art but no animations + controls are clunky at times, seems little to no additional work has been done since the demo shown at the gamedev meetup before BRSD.

Voter's comments:

• Visbiežāk pārspēlētākā spēlīte no jama. Vajag vēl līmeņus! Vēl pretiniekus!!!
• Very fun and fleshed out game
• It's fast paced, interesting game.
• A super easy to get into auto-battler! The only gripe I have with this are the intensely scaling cards. Like jesus, calm down with the scaling.

Voter's comments:

• Jauka bāra spēlīte, lai nav jāšauda mošķus - viņus var piedzirdīt. Man patīk ideja!
• Very fun idea, love the variety of customers.
• The game made me sleepy because of it's calm music :D, it's interesting concept, I would like to see it with more beautiful visuals though. And also the list of the ingredients on the pots. But also it's repetitive, just the ingredients change.
• Awesome idea, but the mechanics are a bit difficult to understand.

Voter's comments:

• Ļoti interesants idle tabletop like spēle. Very prototype vibes, bet izskatās pēc laba potenciāla.
• I really liked this one, one of my my favorites! If it had some music and sound effects i would rate it 5 stars
• Pietrūka kāds SFX klikšķītis. Ne līdz galam iebraucu, kā šāda tipa spēles strādā.
• I did not understand the game, it was confusing. Plus there was windows and popups on top of other windows and popups. There was times when it says that I get coins from the roll, but I did not get any coins. And so I'm stuck with character that does not give anything because I'm out of roll chances. Maybe I just did not got the game...
• The idea is nice, but honestly, it's a bit too confusing to get into.

Voter's comments:

• Fantadroms!!! Weeeee!!
• Very cool stretch mechanic for traversal, needs sounds tho
• Tik tālu bija jautri
• Could be awesome platformer, kind of reminds me of Spyro. But's missing sounds and music. And would be cool some more areas that are closed, but I have to collect more collectables or complete quests to open those areas. To give a reason to be in the world and collect all the stuff. Game has a lot of potential and would like to see updates and released game.
• cookies par spēlēs muziku, bija interesanti spēlēt. patīkamas košas krāsas
• GG. Needs more content
• Interesting prototype for a game that could be continued, currently lacks any sound effects and performance is all over the place ranging from 160 fps to sub 30.

Voter's comments:

• Noice classic TD! Vajag UX improvements un būs labi.
• Lovely tower defense, just needed a song in background to pull the vibes together
• Vēl prasās kkāds viltīgs pagrieziens
• Would like to see those towers and enemies animated. Also more different types of tower. But could be fun TD.
• A pretty bare bones tower defense game, but it feels somewhat satisfying to play. As always, Sīmanis does great with this bugs and stuff!

Voter's comments:

• Ļoti foršs mākslas stils, bet es drusku iestrēgu sākumā. Klasiski veco piedzīvojumu spēlīšu veidā. :D
• Māksla ir vienkārši super stilīga. Tālu netiku, bet jau ir labi spēlējama
• From the game page I see that there is a lot more to this game, I like the art style. There is a lot of work put into the game. But unfortunately when I play I can't do anything much, even get out of the room. Don't know what to do. When I click on the boxed on the right side of the screen the character goes to the window, I guess there is some kind of a bug or just a rushed version uploaded, or am I doing something wrong? But I would like to see the final version of this game!
• mīlīgs UI, bet likās mazliet lēna un garlaicīga
• By god the art is incredible. This is a true indie game at its finest!
• Handmade assets but very confusing and unengaging gameplay at least to me.

Voter's comments!

• Izskatās pēc ļoti ambicioza projekta, izometriskā Fallout modernizācija. Ir diezgan buggaini, bet izskatās pēc forša projekta, kuru vajag daudz pieslīpēt. Ceru, ka pēc šī jama pie tā tiks strādāts.
• Seems very ambitious fallout style rpg, i wanted bit more lore/story to get me going
• Pārāk traka tabula pašā spēles sākumā.
• It gives me fallout or wasteland vibe. It feels too early in production stage, so it's hard to judge. A post appocaliptic atmosphere was achieved, but would suggest work more on it, especially the environment. But lootable crates would be nice, as well as lootable enemies. Character is sliding on the ground when walking, but looks fine when he is running. And running or walking animation looping in place when he hits an obstacle. Switching modes with right mouse button seems confusing, why can't I do that without switching modes? I would like to know more about the lore. But definitely game has a lot of potential and would like to see updates.
• The idea/scope is grand, but the execution is pretty weak currently, unfortunately. That said I hope this keeps getting updates!

Voter's comments:

• Not exactly my cup of tea, so to say, but with faster movement and more interesting adventures (not just a box room with spider webs, chests and diamonds, a key and a door.) and nice music in the background and shorter sounds when you find a chest or step into the spider web. Would be more enjoyable. After all it's not 70's or 80's anymore. You can create quite modern game but with things that scratch the itch of nostalgia of 70's or 80's.
• Jauka, jauka minimālistiska spēlīte, ar smukiem zīmējumiem. Patika gameplay loop, vienkārši un eleganti. Prasās kkādu mošķi, kurš vajā spēlētāju.
• Lielisks autentisks explorējams gabals. Kaut man būtu īstais verķis, uz ko palaist.
• Simple game. Cookies for the effort, but I would prefer more colorful UI. 
• Pretty fun little retro game! The in-game art is amazing, but the overall presentation of the entry was destroyed with the AI slop thumbnails and video. :(

Voter comments:

• Labi izstrādāta spēle, daudz spaidīju kukaiņus. Spēlei pašai ir pa kādam kukainim, bet tas man netraucēja.
• Very crunchy! reminds me of childhood and tending/harvesting potatoes in field
• Patīk visas bērnības atsauces. Nespēju balsot zemāk. Jāturpina taisīt saturs un visi pārējie smukumi.
• It was fun game when I understood what to do. Those pesky little bugs got all my potatoes. :D I had a bug (:D) where it shows me that there is one bug in the smashing area but visually I didn't see any. So I couldn't finish the wave. I don't know if I would like to spend more time in this game, because it's repetitive. From All the contestants it feels for me that this is most complete game.
• fuu par kukaiņu spaidīšanu, bet letiņiem patiks :D
  Awesome idea. Very nostalgic. Speaks to my inner kid at the potato field. Gud stuff.
• Idk, i personally find the premise and gameplay and sound design of this game to be more gross than satisfying

• Nevarēju kārtīgi visu izspēlēt viens, vajag draudziņus. Izskatās kvalitātīvi veidots projekts.
• Cool looking party game, tho i cant fully review it since there was noone to play with
• Labais! Žēl, ka nebija, ar ko uzkapāt.
• Could be fun with all the fights and abilities, but I had no one to test it with. Maybe you could ad bots... reminds me of childhood game.
• Spēlei ir ļoti foršs un tīrs dizains. Ļoti patika ka cīņas laikā pāri lido lidmašīnas, no kurām arī ir jāspēj izvairīties, ne tikai no mīnām un pretiniekiem. Kā lielu plusu redzu to ka var izvēlēties keyboard only vai arī ar peli spēlēt. Spēlējot spēli var redzēt ka ir padomāts pat par mazākajām detaļām.
  Not a big fan of tanks, but the art is cool

Hi are you part of Latvian Game Dev community.  Gamedev.lv would like to talk to you.

Has anyone tried to combine the crt filter with Dosbox yet? :D

Thanks Mattias, I'll check those out!

Hi!

I Love this thing. Dos-like has allowed me to get more into programming in C, and I'm currently working on a small game I'd like to showcase soon!
I was wondering though, could it be possible to add support for pc-speaker-like sound effects? I remember writing small programs in QBasic ages ago, where you could call functions in a loop and they'd play beeps through the PC speaker. It was possible to compose simple audio clips purely through code.

While I was pleasantly surprised by the intro cutscene and presentation (Albeit I immediately recognized the assets, but it's fine, this is a jam), I soon realized the game is basically an older version of the Easy Survival RPG pack from the Unreal Marketplace with not that many apparent changes. I see the potential here, but the potential is, unfortunately, the same I'd feel when downloading ESRPG myself and launching the demo level.

Paldies par atsauksmi!

- "2x noķēru same bug"
- Interesants bugs, nebiju ar to krietnu laiku saskāries, likās ka vairs nav :D

- "radās neliela cerība, ka kādreiz šis tiktu attīstīts un ieintegrēts kādā nedaudz lielākā PC/konsoļu projektā 😁"
- Man jau kādu krietnu laiku bija vēlme uztaisīt mazu projektu, kurā es varētu integrēt šādu combat sistēmu. Biju daļēji iedvesmojies no Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice un Severance: Blade of Darkness. Strādājot iemācījos šo to, tā kā varbūt nākotnē kaut kur izmantošu iegūto pieredzi :).

Bet jā, diemžēl neidevās atrast laiku izveidot dažāda veida ienaidniekus un interesantāku ienaidnieku AI. Tikai nelielu statu progresiju pēc katras uzvaras.

Liels paldies par kritiku un ieteikumiem!
Tikko pievienoju jaunu spēles versiju, kurā ir uzlabota pretinieka inteliģence un grūtība vēlākos līmeņos.

Par pārspīlēto fiziku - tas īsti nebija speciāli, bet dažreiz ātrās tēlu animācijas aizsviež ragdoļļus pa gaisu neparedzamos veidos. Biju plānojis to pielabot, bet domāju, ka to es varētu atstāt uz nākotni, ja nolemšu turpināt pie šī projekta strādāt. :)
