You should create the game you want to play. At the same time, if you can support other playstyles, it’s always nice to let people play your game they way they want to.
It might be some effort, but you could create settings for “classic” and “modern” controls and allow users to decide which they want. Whether that effort is worth it or not, is up to you and how you want to spend your time.
Thanks for playing and for the detailed feedback. I’m glad you got into the game! My own best was level 19, so well done.
In my brainstorming the rabbits would have had levels where they could really stand out. The projectiles can be flaky for sure. It was a fun game to work on and maybe after the jam I’ll add some of the ideas cut for time.
Well, yes the mouse/cursor does set the direction. There’s a behind the curtain skill for throw strength that increases each level. There’s a drag force that slows down the pine cones over distance and they need to be going a certain speed when they hit to take down the penguin.
The projectiles were far more trouble than I expected. Sometimes I’ll shoot one and ask myself, “Now, why didn’t that knock down that penguin?” Penguin feet seem especially resistant to pine cones for reasons I do not understand.
I like the throw and hit sounds, but it’s very quiet overall and could use more sounds. Great way of showing player “health” by having the fort walls get knocked down in stages. Nice game!
It’s the mouse position when you click, but it could take inspiration from what your game has–a bar that stretches out or something like that. Thanks for playing and for the suggestion!
Well assembled game, but (at least for me) the chill music distracts from the game action. Of course, you could go play my game and think the happy EDM distracts from the chill golf vibe, so this is all super subjective :)
I really like the additive mix with the clouds–looks awesome! Varied enemies and the end boss death is satisfying. I wasn’t sure if I was damaging the end boss at first, and some graphics for impact would have been fun & helpful. Working settings menu, very nice!
Some great stuff in this collection! Militantly Chilling and Wayward DOGA stood out. I get a Halloween vibe in Space Flipz but maybe it's just that time of year. Are the samples all copyright safe?
