Thanks a TON for this feedback! I don’t think I’ve had anyone give me such a well compiled list of issues. 10/10 playtester would recommend.

thanks for playing the game and beating the spider boss! I think that makes you one of the first. I love the twist that the game turns into a tower defence and once you get to beating that (tip: focus on economy first then defence, use snipers for single enemies, splash for large groups and minigun for strong defence and the bomb as backup) then there’s another twist ;) Glad you enjoyed the game so far! Next jam I’m going to put a lot more effort into balancing.

yeah the game mashes multiple games tohether but I see no one even finishes the first part do they never even get to the boss battle let alone the other 2 sections

bro didn’t finish the game :(

Thanks for the feedback. Also noted, I shouldn’t have a place people universally get stuck at.

thanks for the feedback! I was the one in charge of the platforming section. By the time I had these pieces of feedback for my section it was unfortunately too late to do anything about it :( But thanks for playing I hope you enjoyed the genre swapping gag.

Hey, I came in third and after playing one round I understand why this got first place. Good job, you deserve it! You struck the perfect balance between intuitive game play difficulty and simplicity. It feels like a puzzle game if a puzzle game was fun. GGs.

Thank you! and turns out… I WON! 3rd place is amazing thanks all for the support. 2nd in audio is great thanks to my composer. 1st in polish? WOW I felt like I needed more polish like physics sound effects and particle effects. I also had a bunch of other places for polish in mind but looking back, yeah this game is pretty good.

Yeah, I got that issue in testing. I wish I had time to go through and really make everything clear but thanks for playing!

Game is too easy and got boring after 3 minutes, got boring before that actually 3 minutes is just when I decided to quit because I will never die. You’re using godot. For the audio/music if you want it to play even when the game is paused then in the audiostreamplayer that is playing the music it needs to have process mode set to always instead of only when the game isn’t paused. Personally it doesn’t make sense to have enemy spawn rate be an upgrade, that’s usually the difficulty curve of a game not the part of the game the player has to keep upgrading because the game is too easy.

Nice and short my only complaint is the controls, I personally would have preferred remapping to wasd and j for switch and k for strike, because I’m weird. Because of my skill issue though I didn’t play replay after dying and never finished the game :(

fyre game.

Thanks so much! I was going to cave in and make dialogue skippable in game, but I decided ultimately not to because I decided to trust that my games is good instead of trying to mr beast everyone into playing my game no matter if the actually enjoy it or not. Thanks for playing and saying this.

thanks, I don’t know how to react but

yay.

Thank you, I recently discovered that all the games I’ve ever mad have been delisted. This means that my games don’t show up when you search for them and they always appear at the bottom of the popularity ratings next to other delisted games. I’ve tried contacting itch.io staff about it but so far, no response.

Thanks so much! I don’t know what to say, this is the best game I’ve ever made and it’s also personal I knew it was good when I wrote it but I didn’t expect people cheering me on to win. Thanks so much for the support I appreciate it.

Thank you! I don’t think I’ve had complemets this high for any og my games before. I’m glad people are enjoying the more personal message I’ve put into my game.

It only took 8 game jams but I finally have a game with a good story. I can start trying to make a game with good gameplay.

Yes it contains success benifits, trust me bro.

Thanks so much for playing my game! I’m glad you enjoyed the story. I got inspired to make the story about inspiration by my lack of inspiration for a story, only remembering the inspiration I’ve had after a good story, was the reference and target feeling I wanted to convey after my games story.

glad you understood my beautifully worded comment.

Thank you for playing my game, I’m glad you enjoyed it. When I wrote the line: “This game… How did I make it” I literally got shivers down my spine. This game feels very connected to my state of mind about creating art. Once again I’m glad you enjoyed it.

thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

thanks I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it! I credited 3 people, it was me, who made the game, drew the art, wrote the song, voice acted jess and the mom. then a friend who did two lines for the mom and another who did bart and the dad.

thanks! glad you enjoyed it.

I bet one person did this…

thanks

TYSM!!!!!!!!!! Really I did outdo myself! I’ve been building up to this my past 4 jams.

I’d love to have you in my discord, if you want your choice either way TYSM for playing and enjoying my game! Thank you also for the complements!

thanks!

oh right, makes sense.

Thanks!

ok nice!

Thanks so much! I appreciate the complements! I listened to Hamilton first time a couple weeks ago so I had to do something with my ✨INSPIRATION ✨

That’s fine! Thanks for playing anyway! It’s not really the kind of music I listen to either, I just chose “rap” because uh idk why not try something I don’t usually engage with. but yeah there is no ending I didn’t have time to add one :( making a song takes a lot of time.

oh except from the text saying “perfect” “good” if you type on beat and “mid.” “BAD!” when you don’t? I do admit my game definitely lacks gameplay, at the end of the day though I’m just glad its functional!

maybe…

Thank you for enjoying my game! This is actually the first song I ever wrote! It took me the first 4 days of the jam to write soooo, that didn’t exactly leave time for much else but I’m glad you enjoyed it nevertheless!

Thank you! I agree I definitely needed some beats but ran out of time, sad I couldn’t get to it. Glad you enjoyed it either way!

Yeah thought somebody would

Thank you! Its literally the first song I ever wrote

Ah basically the same idea, yours just doesn’t support “crossfade” transitions. They have to make the whole screen a predefined image or in this case a solid color then from that into the next scene basically making fade to black but with extra steps.

this is a pretty decent game. There’s not much to it though. I actually made a game where you sell hot coco for comfy jam autumn. It’s called hot coco loco (the previous game jam). It was a nice chill game with no real purpose good job on the collecting sound effect I think it sounds cool. Also is your screen transition taking a screenshot of last scene, placing it as a texture rect in a canvas layer via an autoload then using a dissolve shader to make the transitions?

loved the pitch, and the mechanics were nice puzzle mechanics, obviously not a puzzle game I would say but also just kinda frustrating with the amount of timings you gotta do, the enemy penguins aren’t really like solid pattern left right left right exact deterministic timings. This game is more like asteroids where you got a thousand penguins all going in different directions without a care for each other. I got to the level that’s just a bunch of vertical lines, then gave up cause, I’m not dealing with that. Someone else can move those stones if they need to be moved. Not my problem.

maybe I just didn’t give this game a fair shot though. I sound a lot frustraigted than I actually am, in reality it just got boring quick for me, though I never really like puzzle games idk if you classify this as one but my brain looks at it and says puzzle game.
