The good: Artstyle is pretty good, and the music is very unique. The game is oozing with personality! From the concept being punny, to the gameplay being a good use of the theme, to cool references and a tongue in cheek vibe overall.
There is a similar game for Streetpass on the 3DS where you need to spam sell or spam buy depending on how the market looks. it REALLY works and this game was similar except for a few key factors.
The Bad: I feel like a system similar to that streetpass game would work better here. its called "Market Crashers" in case you want to look into it.
Having the submenu open for buying or selling stock stagnates gameplay and makes it a bit more stressful than it should be. I feel like im batting the UI more than outsmarting the game at some points. Needs refinement but its got a good direction :3
The Devil's in the details- Having the hand pointer get a glove in the lab section, being able to sleep while you're researching, the tense feeling of actually working at an office like this.. I can see me getting lost playing this! The only thing i think is lacking, is a tutorial for the crafting mechanics in the lab, that is what made my playthrough ultimately doomed for how difficult it was for me to understand at first. but theres potential!
Really interesting game. having to reach each possible recruit's backstory, while having the clock against you, makes desperation start to settle in under the fear of possibly not recruiting anyone
Reminds me a lot of the Fallout Shelter games, but with more of a narrative focus. pretty interesting! I think the text goes a little too fast for my taste, but it was a good experience
EXCELLENT game. really reminds me of games like bad piggies, and also, old flash games from Cartoon Network. really polished artstyle and sounds, too. I loved it! sadly i couldnt post images of my build tho!
We just finished our game for this jam, too! it doesnt have any good boys, but i'd really appreciate if you could check it out :3 it is "Five-Finger Discount"
oof, I see what you mean. maybe it wasn't the best choice to have it as awakening button... I'll see into adding an option in the future, thanks for the feedback!
Did you get both endings? The good ending has stunning visuals :)
I made 370 points!!! barely
