This game is simple, but actually a lot of fun. The throwing arm animation is super cute and had me cracking up. The only thing is once you get the enemies down to 2 left it would be nice if that phase took less hits to kill them because the challenge is less and it will take longer to hit them because they are shooting less. Awesome job!
Thank you for the feedback. I'm going to go and think of a way to better give that info to the player. Maybe having a current word on top and then it will make a sound when it collects. Thank you for playing our game!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I went way overboard with difficulty this time, I'm hoping to eventually go back and make an easier level to ramp it up. Thank you for playing our game!!!!
Thank you so much! I'm a music teacher who's learning game design to make learning tools for kids. This one is definitely waaaaaay too hard for that but I wanted to try something crazy for the jam. If you like the story/voice acting and know someone ages 5-10 who wants to learn music (or just likes silly stuff) I made some free general music games at www.starquestcamp.com . That was the first big thing I made but I didn't know how to program so the gameplay is basically just point and click quiz stuff, it's fully animated and voice acted though. I can't wait to see your next game and the developments on Dropoff if you keep working on it! Thanks for playing!
Thank you so much!! Hahaha I have Bootlemania! I think it would be a lot of fun to make a full typing game where it teaches you along the way. I have to learn a bit more about programming first. Thank you for playing!
I had a lot of fun playing this. The robot was super cute and I enjoyed the universe hopping. I think that giving the user the option to click to make the arm extend and unextend would make the controls more intuitive. Nice game!
Thank you for the feedback! Yeah it is pretty challenging, next time I would at least make level 1 a little forgiving. I am going to go back in and fix that bug after the jam. Thank you for playing!
Haha np. It was a super time crunch for us too. Your game was very stable for me other than that. My second level in my game bugs out half the time lol. I don't want to spoil but I did love the collection screen of the secret.
Amazing art, color scheme and the controls are really tight. It took me a minute to figure out that the coins help tank the damage of the eyes but once I got it I had a lot of fun playing. Awesome game! Thank you for the fun puzzles.
Thank you! It was a lot of fun composing in the different styles. I have to go back after the jam and find out where that pesky bug is. Thank you so much for playing and the feedback. I'll go check out your game now : )!
This game was so interesting and unlike anything I've played before. Loved it! Good music and art, and the color scheme drew me in way back when I just saw screenshots of it in the discord. I love the story telling mechanic.
Great job on this game!! I had fun beating it but the real fun was in the speed run. I got the secret but I think you should also show a little different ending screen if you took the time to do that. Also the screen scroll on credits and story needs to have a hurry up button. Awesome work!
This game was super hard but I BEAT IT! I found that using the mouse to look helped more than strafing. I like your art and textures but I think the texture on the back of their head belongs on the top of their head. I had fun getting that horror mini-fig though, thanks for making this. Stay safe and avoid all those green box people lol.
Fun little game! I like the mummy and generally how it look and felt. The jump is too vertical if that makes sense. It kind of kills your forward momentum which makes it feel a little stifling. I had a lot of fun thanks for making it!
This game is really fascinating! It was waaay hard with my eyes closed. The hard part is that it's a lot of trial and error to know where to jump (with eyes closed of course) . Maybe if the areas where you were supposed to jump over gaps had an identifying sound so you could know you were on the right track. Regardless I had a lot of fun, thank you for making this!
Lol at the Beethoven joke. Thank you for the advice, I agree totally that I should add subtitles or at least the option for them. The game unfortunately bugs out sometimes on the browsers because the bug intermittently appears we didn't catch it during the short playtesting we were able to do. The notes should play out an organ solo in the first level and a guitar solo in the second level. It's possible they sounded random because of that bug messing it up. I'm eventually hoping to release a starter level and maybe a harder level after the bootles. Thank you so much for playing and giving me such helpful feedback!
The platforming felt very nice in this game. I was pleasantly surprised when I found the plane and it was fun to fly around! The cannon sounds are too loud though in my opinion and obfuscate the nice music. Great job!
Thank you so much!!!! It was so fun to compose and voice act this. I think I'm going to go back and make an easier level so it's not so extreme at the beginning. Thank you for playing : )!
This is a great game! The lassoing mechanic was fun. The graphics and animation remind me of The Oregon Trail game when you go hunting... which was my favorite part of the game. The only thing I would suggest is making an arrangement of the music you made so the instruments build up to what you have if that makes sense. The parts you have If you started the song with just the drum and chords for a while and then alternated between that and a section where that cool counterline comes in I think it could give it more impact and give more variation to the song. Awesome job!
Oh my goodness I've never seen that game. Thank you for sharing it, it looks so fun! I've been so obsessed with music games lately. Thank you so much for playing our game and for the feedback!
We were working right up until 10 minutes before school on the day of the deadline and I didn't get to add everything we planned. I can't wait to go back after the jam and add in some more polish to this. Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
Sorry about the bugs. For some reason my timers worked fine in construct and during initial testing, but now have a chance of making the level off time. I'm going to go back in once the jam is over and fix up all the bugs so it will work as intended : ). I also think a song restart is a great feature that I will add. Thank you so much for your feedback and for playing!
The important thing is to keep trying! I make a bunch of "bad" songs each time I make the "good" version of it. It's not a waste because you learn what not to do while composing those songs that you don't use. I would suggest try playing around with the Pentatonic Major scale because that's a nice scale for making catchy sounding melodies.
Thank you! Yeah we went a bit overboard with the difficulty ramp on this one. I want to eventually make an easier level before bach and a REALLY hard one after the Bootles. Thank you for playing our game : )!
Nice job on the game! Love the art, and the music!! It gave the game such a creepy cool atmosphere. Jumping was interesting sometimes but it honestly grew on me. I ended up enjoying the difficulty of the platforming . My favorite part is the death explosion, it made dying not so bad.
