GG! I reviewed and played it on my stream
Nice man thank you for taking the time to play our game!
Holy cow I freaking loved this!! The animations and the particles are soooo nice it made me love doing anything in this game! I do feel like I regretted building so many bridges on day 1 since I had to walk so much the later days after using all the wood already haha but it was still a fun time. Really really loved the animation and polish, amazing job!!
Appreciate the feedback! I hope you had fun :)
I did! And congrats on #45!! That's so awesome!!
I like it, it's very polished. I think a compass or a map that shows the direction the lighthouse is in would be nice. Another thing I'd like to see is an alternative way to use rocks, you need wood to get to other islands, but rocks are only ever used to repair the lighthouse.
Thank you! And that was one of the things we had to cut due to time constraints but definetly something worth adding!
Consistently good pretty much everywhere. Sorta reminds me of Forager a little bit
Thank you! I havent played Forager yet but it looks cool!
Your game is well-rounded on all areas! Pretty good stuff!
thank you for the feedback!
I really like the visuals, music and sfx, everything just feels right. Also the story is simple, but fits the theme well.
Appreciate the feedback!
Just wow, polish is actually crazy. Artist has gone mad, music is good too. Concept and game design is also top.
For some reason, I got a well/food box notification that it's drained, the day before it happened.
But everything else worked perfectly!
Great cozy game, enjoyed every second of it!
Appreiate the, I make all art from scratch for each game jam so its all unique :)
Great art and music. Really enjoyed it. The stakes were high for me. Like build a bridge while you are able to cause if you use the wood now you wont be able to build a bridge and lose potential resources next run. Pretty challenging.
Kudos!!
Thank you for the review!
Great game, very relaxing. I enjoyed it alot.
Thank you for the feedback :)
cute game, great art style and mechanics. The addition of a new resource, like the stone, as you progress make it feel pretty organic
Appreciate the feedback!
Thie game is amazing! The graphics, audio, everything fit perfectly together, and it's so polished! I like that it's very cutesy and calming but still gets a bit stressful once you start running out of food and water. Love the little details such as fish swimming around in the water. A tiny thing you could add is maybe some messaging during the storm because I wasn't sure if I had to wait for something or could just skip it.
Thank you for the feedback, there should be dialogue that says "Space to continue"
I absolutely LOVE this game!!! I was totally immersed and sad that it ended after 3 days haha. I love that the game progression really gets to you when you realize that the trees don't regrow like they typically do in video games, and your well and food supplies run out. In the beginning, I was taking my leisurely time exploring various islands and building bridges, but soon I realized that took a toll on not only my hunger and thirst but also the time, so I quickly changed my strategy and just greedily grabbed rocks and trees lol. Luckily, I didn't ever have to go back to grab any supplies form the lighthouse since I had built so many bridges already. The gameplay mechanic here is so unique and I think there should be a whole genre of games like this! Also, the music pairs so well with the game and the art is so cute!! If I really had to offer a suggestion to this perfect game, maybe there could be some varied messages at the end of the day to spice things up a bit so I can be motivated each day. Overall though, I am sooo impressed by the polish and the concept! Such an amazing game!! (I recommended all my teammates to play too haha)
Thank you for this incredibly detailed response, I apreciate it! We would love to expand this world we built, as we had plans for a small inventory, crafting and animals but obviously had to cut down due to time contraints.
I am a little surprised how many people though "lighthouse" as the ideal location for this theme.
Lighthouse can be a calm place... before the storm of course :)
The art was so cute, there was a bit of stress of course for a challenge and the game poses some interesting choices, building bridges is very much needed and im glad i didnt waste my wood, the last twist of your water and berries running out scares me a lot and barely got out of the last stage lol
Such a well made game, great job!
Thankyou for the feedback, we look foward to seeing how well we did!
Loooove the art, idk why but it feels really cozy to me to go grab some tree / berries / water and walk around ! I would love to have a mini map to know a bit better where I was, other than that I loved it !
Ooh thats a good idea, would be interesting with the randomly generated islands!
I loved the art for this game, makes for a really pretty and relaxing vibe and atmosphere. The gameplay loop is simple yet satisfying. I liked the concept of having a choice to use wood to make bridges to get more wood or to take the wood you have directly to the lighthouse, nice design there!
Appreciate you playing our game!
Awesome game. Simple and interesting and very pretty. The music is nice.
I was able to survive the first night, I got a window that said it was the first night of 3 and that I had to press the space bar to play further. I pressed it, but I was thrown back to the main menu and there was no way to continue the game:(
That is very odd, We havent encountered that bug before, thankyou for bringing it to our attention!
This is such a cool and unique game! I love the art and music, the gameplay is fun and intuitive, and I really like the speed-up-time feature. Great work!
Thank you for the feedback :)
What an unreal experience! Wonderfully made game. Very polished, adore the art style 🤌I really hope to see this one gets featured. Very very very well done fellow human!
Thankyou! We put a lot of effort into this one and hopefulyl we can turn it into its own game :)
Oh yeah, would love to see this game as it's own stand alone title!
WebGL i broken, please fix and let me know, I'll play it
I dont know anybody whos had that problem. Might want to restart computer?
