Actually, since then I've found a way to reliably win. It's not a chance game, it's a speed game.

If you click fast enough, you can exceed the 7-tile limit. At which point you can have as many tiles as you want, you won't lose, which trivializes the game. I suspect your code determines failure by checking if the number of tiles is exactly 7, when it should check for 7 or greater.

"Hard as nails" is right. You can strategize all you want, in the end it's a game of luck.

Yes I did, I just don't use it very often because it's simply not the best option most of the time.

Awesome game, as usual!

I do have some feedback to give, though, regarding the druid.

I find myself not playing him very often, especially after buying and upgrading other cards. The fact that he costs 2 means that I rarely have enough energy to play the druid after more than 2 cards, which makes the payoff of his rune a bit underwhelming.

I think the druid would benefit from having his cost reduced to 1.

This game is a blast.

This is a very fun game, full of personality and juice. Well done!

Two puzzles are impossible to solve.

OK, I won't even attempt to complete the Three Body Problem. But it's a very charming game :)

I've always loved highscore games; Defeat is certain, it's just a matter of when. So this one is right up my alley. Good job, I enjoyed it very much :)

This is a very fun game. There's so much juice in it, it's so engaging. 5/5, 100% done in about an hour.

I had genuine fun playing the game, especially the final segment. Awesome job!

Might have been closer to an hour now that I think of it. But the point is, it was a pretty fast, yet enjoyable experience. Well done!

I managed to buy everything within 30 minutes.

Cool game, very satisfying. I especially like the decision-making involved.

The only minor complaint I have is that once you've emptied the GB shop and bought all the upgrades for every weapon in all stages, buying the last towers is a bit too much of a grind.

OK, I beat the first map, and now apparently I'm the Terminator.

Same

OK, this is one of the best games I've ever played on Itch. It's fun, it's satisfying, it has awesome polish (no pun intended), and it taught me a bit of history to boot! Outstanding work.

I've rarely laughed so hard playing a game. Thank you for the experience!

Very cool game. I burst out laughing several times, notably when I unlocked "Dragon Bond". Because "The name's Bond. Dragon Bond."

"We need more room, call in some drill guys"

[Drill guys drill a new floor, then leave]

"Hey, where are you going? You have bloody drills, stay and help!"

"Nope, shift's over, good luck with that wall, guys!"

No, it just takes time. The second wall is orders of magnitude more resistant than the first one, but after 1 hour of investing in Break alchemy, balloons and fire damage, it's down to about 90% health.

And what is the theme?

This jam is a perfect opportunity to dust off one of my old projects and redesign it from the ground up, because it was based on a "special interest" of mine.

When I was a teenager, I was a huge fan of Ratchet & Clank. In case you don't know, it's a series of action-platformer video games that started in 2002 on the Playstation 2, where you play as a mammalian creature and his robot pal, travel from planet to planet, buy wacky weapons and fight colorful enemies with them, smash crates to collect bolts and use them to buy ammunition and more weapons. The series isn't exactly dead, but I feel like it lost its way about a decade ago, and at the time I tried to keep it alive by creating a TTRPG that mimicked the experience of the video games. It was set in my own universe, but incorporated many trappings of the games' worlds.

I've been meaning to restart that project with a clean slate, but haven't been able to find the time to do so. Until now.

Thanks!

That one was particularly frustrating, though. All previous shortcuts were clearly visible, but this one wasn't.

The game is very novel, but sometimes it's a bit too hard to figure out what to do next.

The game is good, but I'm stuck.

I pressed the first button at the bottom of Rumpus' cave, but I don't know how to get to the second one.

How exactly are you supposed to cross the river at the very start of the game?

The jump is too short by a couple pixels.

Nevermind, I figured it out, but it's counterintuitive.

I didn't know such a simple game could be so fun!

Hi, I would like to base my game on the Non-Euclidean Game Jam. It was about making, well, non-euclidean games, meaning the games had to play with dimensions in some way. Does that count as a constraint for the purposes of the Revival Jam?

This isn't a game. This is AN EXPERIENCE.

I had a crazy theory in the first minutes of the story, about a potential end twist. I was wrong, and the actual twist surprised me.

[SPOILERS AHEAD]

At first I thought Mother Tiabata was the culprit, and only asked us to recreate the murder to frame us.

The reveal that the victim wasn't who I thought he was took me off guard.

Hi! I'm not sure I'll join the jam yet, but in order to make a decision, I'd like to know, well, what the title says. Does this speculative evolution have to be set in a fairly realistic sci-fi setting (either an alien planet or an alternate or future Earth), or can it be set in a more magical world? One where the environmental conditions are influenced by the presence of magic or other supernatural forces, and life had to adapt to it in ways that are impossible under normal laws of physics?

It works. Thanks!

Not working on my computer. The game loads, but the astronaut won't move. I tried all keys to no avail.

They did when I downloaded last played the game.

I haven't laughed so hard playing a video game in a long time. Thank you, the humor is on point!

OK, super fun concept, but forget the Bard; the Shaman is obscenely OP. Place one at the end of the loop, you basically get a double turn. Place two, you get four turns. I got three easily, and could have added a fourth, which would have yielded a whopping sixteen turns in one. If you ever get back to this game, you absolutely need to nerf the Shaman.

Hi! I just joined the Marvellous Heroes jam, but before I commit to coming up with a game concept, I need a few clarifications.

- Can the game be about the Marvel universe specifically, does it have to be? The same question goes for any other IP.

- I assume that the game doesn't absolutely have to come with a default setting, but if it does come with one, does said setting have to be the usual kitchen-sink universe based on the real world? Or can we get a bit more creative in that department?

Bonjour,

Le titre parle de lui-même. Quels sont les trois thèmes de la jam ?

I definitely felt on the edge, that's a good sign. It seemed to me that the boss has lower health than regular enemies, which felt weird until I realized he's revived after a few seconds.

The hammer is clearly the superior weapon in this game. I really like how it works, too.

Very good job on this one!

This rabbit kicked my ass too many times. I probably suck. But even then, this boss fight lacks telegraphing.

The rest of the game is cool and reasonably polished, although the sound stutters. The "you died" song made me crack a smile, though. Good job on this one.

Apart from what has already been said, tThe sounds are incredibly low, I even thought there was no music until I turned the volume up to maximum.

Anyway, this needs a lot of refinement, but it looks promising.
