Cool story. The second part of the game is way more fun.
Random idea: start with the second part. Don’t explain the situation. Then do the record scratch: How did I get here? Then start the story. Then return to the second part again but even crazier. I dunno – just throwing ideas.
Anyway, I’m glad I finished the story. Good game.
I think you’re close to having something here – it just needs more variables. Like maybe something where you place bets on which card will be the gold card and some property of the set of cards after it, like even number, prime number – all kinds of stuff.
The art and music are great. Everything looks polished and runs smooth.
The game is a little tricky with the controls. Traditionally, W moves the player forward, with A and D to turn the character – so it was sorta tough breaking that habit. Also, it feels like you can be a bit cheeky by not collecting many chickens in the first round to make the second round easier. But the game really unfolds when you go for the challenge.
BTW, the packaging of the game is amazing – from music to art to the theme and colors – really feels like a solid product. Cool game.
Ha! I kinda threw in the music last minute. Wanted something hectic to push you forward, but you’re right: it can get a little stale, fast. That’s why I added in the Pico-8 menu the ability to toggle the music or sfx. Shoot – I shoulda mention that on the page. I’ll add that later tonight.
Thanks so much for playing! This was a fun jam.
I’ll be honest: I had more fun farming than worrying about the ghosts. Would be cool to add more stuff to fight the ghosts. Maybe automatically? Like sentries or something? Also would be cool to able to purchase a clock to know when the sun is rising or setting.
Anyways, I played this game WAY longer than I intended. Farming is addictive.
