Liked the music and the serenity of the enviorment, despite imminent doom. I think the juxtaposition of the two was pretty interesting as a game theme.
Couple of things I noticed: - I was a little confused on how to play this game in the beginning, wasn't sure if I was supposed to move the train or it would move for myself
- The camera seems to skip a lot, for example right before landing
- Also one thing was on the 2nd station, I found my camera skipped behind (where the first station was) which made the game play feel a bit erratic.
Also I laughed a bit at the landing blast effect haha, I guess it makes sense because the E key is a rocket jump? Overall had a good time!
Fun game haha, I also like playing bball IRL so I got to live my Steph Curry dreams a little bit.
I found it difficult to tell what was underfoot a lot, so I kept falling. Also the laser beam gets into the way of a clutch shot I feel. Maybe that can be a bit more translucent?
Nice work! Really enjoyed the mechanics, thought it was very well tied into the game jam theme as well. In particular, I really liked the tie in with how heavy the hour glass was (animations, weight, jump height, etc)
One super minor thing I felt was the angels that allow you to pray feel they take a tad bit too long at least without animations showing some form of progress.
I liked the concept a good amount, was having some fun with the concept.
Also why does pipo not like ice cream? I like ice cream ;(
It took me a bit to figure out how to plant seeds and stuff, maybe a tutorial screen would be better instead of voice. (I assume this was because of time constraints)
I liked the take on countdown, it looked like the timer to tile mechanics were pretty well thought out. I got the same satisfaction when flipping tiles as I do in minesweeper...although in this case it might not be good xD
Maybe some cool sound effects and stuff would turn this into a much better experience!
I liked the style, really enjoy the OST although I felt like it didn't quite fit the vibe of the game (where I'm trying to complete puzzle against the clock).
I got stuck on the bottom right puzzle! Unsure what to do there.
Wow that was crazy polished, really amazing job! I love the art-style in particular.
It was a little difficult to figure out what to type when I wanted to type fizz or buzz, given that you need to type the numbers. Maybe one improvement could be more of multiple choice?
I enjoyed the soundtrack, the upgrade system, and the mobs. Made it to wave 8 on my first try!
Wasn't sure if I missed it, but was there a firing speed upgrade? I think I found that it's difficult to get past some of the later waves with larger contracts because it seems quite rare (or maybe it doesn't exist)? I took 2 damage upgrades once it wasn't enough to chew through the mobs.
I also thought the health tied to the timer was pretty interesting as a concept too!
Interesting game, really like how you build up the stakes and intensity, and how you set up the premise well.
Maybe one thing is that it feels like the alien moves too fast initially, I spend a lot of time trying to shake the alien off of my trail, maybe more than I should? It's also difficult to type in the throttle command while you're being chased.
I did really enjoy that the alien just shows up in the corner as you're typing though, it certain adds to the intensity :)
Nice concept! I tried out a few builds but had a difficult time getting past ~21 or so initially.
Maybe some things that could help are things like:
- Start launch timer to skip directly to launch? It helps in the beginning as accumulating currency is kinda slow
- Maybe a remove part button would be nice too, given I want to experiment with different ideas
I didn't end up getting to being able to buy parts, but was very curious what happens when you go over the max mass! I love these games where you see your build work / fall apart so definitely enjoyed it
Nice work! Loved the visuals, clean UI, and I suppose the pitched concept.
I wish what you mentioned in the description (simultaneously implementing the game-mechanic of fast-travel across the world using time-zones) was actually part of the game as a mechanic. It's pretty intriguing to me and can imagine that to be a pretty unique concept.
Great work! Loved the art direction and the sound track!
I had some really funny poses towards the middle which still gave me 3 stars, which I wasn't really sure was intended. One thing I wished was at the photobook at the end, my pictures were used rather than the pictures I was supposed to make.
Loved the action oriented gameplay, music choice, and art style a lot!
From my POV it was a little confusing to tell if my order (Q+E) went through, and under what conditions it works or doesn't work. Also seems like the gun fire for me was glitched a little bit
I liked the theming a lot. Notably loved the hourglass and the fact that you can go up/down, as well as the dynamic (the bottom fills as the top depletes) which makes certain portions / upgrades accessible / inaccessible.
I also loved becoming a super worm and blasting off a bunch of bugs!
I liked the concept! It was quite a novel typing game.
Few things I wished:
1) I wish the visibility on the text was a bit better. I got stuck when the yellow vehicle was on the top left corner, since I couldn't figure out what to type
2) Maybe real words could be helpful instead of some fake words? At times it was hard to figure out differences between the letter D and O.
Overall, did like the concept and cool that you can do so much through typing!
Hey nice job! I got to play through the 3 levels, and I thought it was pretty unique. I'm a rhythm game noob so appreciated the loose timing windows xD
