How does your game fit the theme?
I took the theme diving deeper and made the game about using technology to go into and kill bacteria in fruits.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the code and assets were made by me other than the font for the text in the game.

I like the concept and idea, however I wish there was:

  • A tutorial
  • Music and sound effects
  • Easier control of the thing used to kill the bacteria
Submitted

good

Cool game and interesting concept ! I imagine it being play in coop, would be fun

The video was very helpful because I had no idea what to do at first lol

And adding sound fx and music would be better

Overall nice game !

Submitted

Good news - despite the warning, web version runs pretty smoothly, with the only exception being low mouse sensitivity. Pretty good-looking game :)

good game and cool graphics

Could you rate my game - https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2236838

Good game and with a lot of ingenuity, a little strange at first but then you get used to the gameplay.

Figuring out how to play is a challenge by itself (the game needs a tutorial, or at least an indication that u use "Q" to drop items). Once you get how to play, the gameplay is nice, graphics are great. The game is lacking some calm music and it would be nice if it had some goal and/or progression. 

Overall - game well done!

Submitted

A little strange game, but the concept is not bad

Submitted

Nice Take on the theme, but just 2 suggestions

  • PLEASE, PLEASE make the game more user-friendly. I liked the "aha" moment when I understood what to do, but it was very hard, considering the small size of the bacterium, how hard the controls are, the bacteria moving away every second, an the INSANE mouse sensitivity. These factors are running an almost perfect game
  • Secondly, I'd suggest adding an ending to the game of some sorts, as currently there is no motivating force.

Otherwise, Brilliant Game! :D

there could be a little tutorial for cleaning bacterias other than that game was preatty insteresting. Good job for your first game jam submittion i can see u are talented keep improving yourself buddy :)

This Game Is Very Unique. However I Did Get Confused Of What I Was Supposed To Do.

Submitted

Same here boss. I ran around clicking buttons, then looked for an instructions manual and didn't find one

Submitted

Aside the control problems people have already mentioned, this game is super cool and unique! the art is really nice and with some audio feedback would be a really cool simulator game! a really cool concept!

Submitted

I like this concept, but the controls for the machine could've been executed better. I would make the machine controllable with the actual keyboard. The bactery constantly moving after you shoot it is also annoying especially with these controls

Submitted

After trying for a while, I finally understood what to do. It became pretty fun after that . Overall a great concept. some nit-picks on small gameplay mechanics but other than that, good job!

Submitted

It would lack a small tutorial integrated into the game (I understood how to play only after several minutes).

Otherwise, the controls are not ergonomic to "explore the fruit". This should be reworked to make the game better.

Developer

You are right, now that I think about it, the controls aren't straight forward. I added a bit to the description for controls and there is also a video. I was planning to make a tutorial but it was getting close to the time running out and I thought the controls were straight forward but I guess it wasn't. Thanks for the feedback, ill make sure to add a tutorial sequence in future games!

Submitted

After understanding how to play (and it's hard) I find it quite annoying that you can't use the buttons and see the screen perfectly at the same time...

Developer

This was supposed to be an intended feature, but I will rethink stuff like this in future games if its annoying, Thanks!

Submitted

There should be any tutorial or some text that show how to play. I pressed all the buttons and nothing happen. Also the camera movement is a bit weird. But I like the models that you made :) Very cool

Developer

Thank you! There is a video walkthrough on the page if you are still interested, I assume you missed it.

Submitted

Oh dam, I didn't saw it, sorry. Gonna try it again, Thanks!
