It seems I should be able to grab the apples but I can't I can get the golden ones though! Looks like a fun little game but it needs a bit more time to take out the bugs!
Very cool! But I think it would be even cooler if the planet doesn't get smaller, instead you will have to deal with your bullets forever, but as a trade off, the amount of enemies should be a bit smaller. Anyway, I think this game has a lot of potential!
Really good game! I really enjoyed it, and it required some thought! The only problem is that sometimes I was able to walk in the air, and other times, it did not execute the moves in the order I put them for some reason. But if those bugs can be fixed it's a really solid game!
This is almost perfect! The only problem I have is that in one level, the one where you introduce the one that skips the next sound, I won even though I think I didn't have the correct solution? It always skipped the blue circle but it still counted as a win. It would also be a nice quality of life improvement if you can move elements you put down after you put them in the wrong location instead of having to press R to restart. Other than that, this game is perfect. I definitely deserves to be in the GMTK video!
It's an interesting idea to use the game of life for a game, but there is some feedback I'd like to give. It seems that the main goal in your eyes is to make the player figure out "the rules". But if someone doesn't know what the game of life is, they can probably never figure that out on their own, I think. Even if you do vaguely know what the game of life is, it can be hard to figure out the exact rules. If I had made this game, I would have first explained the rules of the game of life to the player, and then ask them to find a solution that survives the 100 iterations. That's challenging enough, I think.
interesting experience. I do have some feedback though:
I didn't feel like it really fit the theme, you could have made it one long level instead of three separate ones. Although then the question would still be: what does the loop add to your game that it otherwise wouldn't have? How does the loop define your game and make it special?
It would be nice to have a button that speeds up the process, because when you die, it can take a looong time to get back to where you were.
The art and audio create a very liminal atmosphere! I just wasn't really sure where to go? I think for a game jam game, it's important to make it clear as soon as possible what the point / goal of the game is. Maybe that's something to improve int he future! :)
You're right, and the controls should be improved if we want to make this a full game. However, having 3 dimensions is absolutely crucial in a physics based game like this, I think. But don't worry, we have some ideas on how to improve it! :)
We have some ideas on how to make the controls more readible! But for this jam we unfortunately had to move fast and couldn't afford to think longer about the controls than we already did. It's certainly one of my regrets. We will update after the jam though. Thanks for the suggestions!
