Thanks for playing. There was a bug meaning the final boss did not trigger and the game just abruptly ended which is fixed in the latest version.

There is supposed to be a boss and a screen telling you that you won, but maybe that got broken for the released version.

For various reasons I don't have the source publically available I'm afraid but I appreciate the offer. Thanks for playing and the feedback as well.

Edit: I have fixed the bug that meant the boss fight wasn't triggering.

Since you have limited slots for rounders, merging at higher levels is still going to increase the max amount of extra time you can store. It's just that merging the lower levels is super efficient and you should do that first until you run out of space.

Edit: higher level rounders also give more xp when dropped on a skill. Gamma = 65 xp, Delta = 165xp

As some other people have hinted at, this could really do with some clearer tutorialisation/indicators on how rounders work. I thought the game was really boring and uninteractive until I looked at the comments and saw that I could merge and drop them.

Also I think time should stop when something new pops up (or at least have that as an option). If I'm meditating and I get a charge on "Collect Alpha" then I want to use that charge before time runs out rather than continue meditating.

Finally I think that the button layout could use some work, the layout shifting around when new buttons appear isn't great in my opinion.

That's supposed to be some constructive criticism, having fun with the game so far.

Thanks for another nice review :)

Hey thanks for playing. Windwaker was definitely an inspiration, specifically for the world map structure :)

Ah, I see what's happened there actually, that's a very dumb bug where I used the wrong tile to create the expanded border around the island zones.

Thanks for playing, glad you found it interesting :)

Hi yeah that looks like a bug, not one I've seen, I'm not really sure what happened there. Sorry about that!

Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it.

The only way the game ends is for you to either die or fail to meet quota. So the quota going up quite steeply ensures the game will eventually end, and you can compete to go the longest/get high score.

Balancing the quota amounts was quite hard, and I didn't have that much time for it during the jam.

Anyway thanks for playing, hope you enjoyed it.

Thanks for playing :)

Thanks for your review and thorough feedback, much appreciated.

The game is supposed to end and take you to a summary screen when you kill the boss. If it didn't something went wrong, sorry.

Hope you enjoyed the game, thanks for playing.

Whoops. I don't think anyone else has managed to find that one :D

Very nice presentation, neat idea for a core mechanic. Started off a little slow when I only had Zap and needed 3 hits to kill a wolf, but after I got Bolt it picked up a lot.

I did try to throw the amulet back but it said I was out of range. I think I tried to attack first so that may have messed it up?

You always end up with some blind spots like that in a game which is why getting other people to play it is a great idea :)

Nice little game, there's some potential here, shame you didn't have time to finish it.

Creepy vibe, much more of a shooter than I was expecting and it lost some of the spooks once my gun became a machinegun pistol. Could use some more variety as it was getting a bit repetetive before I found the end.

Really nice game, I love a good golf game. Procedural courses seem to be working really nicely, although it could use a little more variety. More subtle control over power on swings would be really good too.

Hey, kind of a neat concept for a game, looks like it has potential. A few points:

* Requiring people to actually run the game through python/pygame is kind of a big barrier for entry. There are tools like py2exe which can package it into a more convenient format.
* Are those assets ripped directly from FFT and Chrono Trigger? That kind of thing isn't great, and you could be sued (at least if you ever make any money).
* I got stuck on the third tutorial. After throwing the Amulet over to the archer and shooting the sprite, nothing else happend and I didn't seem to be able to move on.

Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it!

No, that's by design (different from a lot of roguelikes that have diagonal movement but I prefer 4-way movement).

Congrats on beating the game, I hope you had fun. No special reward for 100% completion in the jam version I'm afraid.

Hey, sorry about the crash. The Mac version is not well tested and this is the first I've heard about any crash issues. I'd be interested in the crash report if possible.

Incredible. Great idea for a short interactive experience. Had a blast.

Thanks for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Hey, thanks for playing and the detailed feedback. I'll try and take that on board if I end up updating the game.

Just for fun, to give you something extra to find when exploring. :)

Thanks for playing and leaving feedback. I know it's rough right now, balancing is a very high priority for a playable version soon!

Thanks for playing and leaving feedback.
Proper resizing is definitely on my todo list somewhere but wasn't ready for this version. Balancing is a very high priority for a playable version soon!

Always selling Mini Micro :P

That's fairly unlikely for me given the amount of effort I have invested in the current C# version, and Monogame is providing me most of that stuff.

Thanks for playing though.:)

I think that's fair. Personally I haven't played Donkey Kong 64 or a game with a a similar mechanic, but maybe I could have predicted some of the issues. 

A lot of this jam for me was a learning experience in making a game in 3d for once, so it definitely isn't perfect. 

Also it's a game jam, what did you expect for the final door? 

Cool high energy atmosphere. Took me a little while to understand what was going on/my goal. Nice feel to the jumping and collecting too.

Really cool game. I like how the art and music support the story telling, that was really neat.

The jump physics was a little floaty, and I sometimes got stuck/slid off corners. The little bit of slowmo when you shift dimensions was a really nice touch.

Hey, neat game, looks quite nice. It seems like being big is never something you want, it might be interesting if you needed to be big sometimes. Cool game though!

Yes, although it will get frozen after the deadline until judging is finished. Until the deadline you can do whatever you want!

If you upload and submit now, you can still update until the deadline, but you won't miss it. Everyone get your games uploaded now! :)

Definitly agree with you about telling what was interactive. For a bigger game it would be a good idea to establish some kind of indicator in the design of what is interactive.

Nice game, very well polished. Could do with some more elements to mix up the puzzles a bit.

Cool puzzle game. Although the animations are good it would be nice to be able to move faster and not have to wait between moves. Quite hard and I was struggling to understand the AI's movement patterns.
