Cool concept, but the text was a little hard to read.

I really liked the music and the graphics. The game play is an interesting approach to the theme.

Really nice graphics! Some stuff is cut off out of view making it a bit hard to play, perhaps the itch.io viewport settings should be adjusted (it may be possible to do this without changing the game file at all). Otherwise really nice job on this game!

unfortunately, I realized really late in the making of the game that I did a terrible job of implementing the UI and this is the best I could do.

Yeah, making a complete tutorial without overloading the player with a wall of text really hard I've found. i probably should've explained that the turrets point to your mouse when you place them down.

I really enjoyed the game! It took me a little while to figure out how everything worked, but once I got the hang of it, it was really fun to play! It fits the theme perfectly. The combination of tower defense and resource gathering is unique and well done. I also love the visuals! Great job!

the audio was great, the graphics were great, but there was no y-sorting. all of the tutorial text was off the top of the screen on my 1080p monitor, so i had no clue what to do lol.

you should be able to pan around the screen using the bars at the bottom and far right of your screen, you still can't see everything at once, but you'll at least be able to read all the text

This was so fun, I love the mix of resource gathering and tower defense in this game. It took me a few tries to really get a run going, but once I understood everything it was smooth sailing. I really liked dumping turrets all over my base to defend against the attacks. It took me a bit to realize the turrets pointed towards wherever the mouse was pointing when I placed them. I ended up beating the game with a score of 140, awesome job I really enjoyed this game!

That was challenging ! This kind of "tower defense"/ressource gathering gameplay is interesting though ! Good job !

Excellent execution on both the building and defending aspects. I wish the text was clearer on the background, and I think the waves ramp up in difficulty quite fast, but I have no major complaints.

thank you! I tried a few things to make the text more visible, but I think that I am ultimately not experienced enough with Godot to adequately solve that problem. (loved your game btw)

Reply
nickbdawgSubmitted166 days ago(+1)

I'm no UI expert, but I think if you added a dark font outline color to the text and then increased the outline size it'd help give it some contrast with the background and make it more readable.

Reply
woutanDeveloper166 days ago

I tried to add an outline but that just made the text blurry and even harder to read. that might just be a problem with the text size tho

Reply
nickbdawgSubmitted165 days ago

Ah ya I know what you mean. I've had good luck in the past using these pixel fonts https://nimblebeastscollective.itch.io/nb-pixel-font-bundle, and then making the font size a multiple of 16, then they looked clean with the outline. This is with Rockboxcond12 from that bundle at 16 and 32 font size, idk if font size 16 is too big for your game tho, could maybe find a smaller base size pixel font somewhere if 16 is too big.

Reply
woutanDeveloper165 days ago

thanks, I'll have to try that font

I liked the game and the content it offers, and I think the building mode is cool. However, the size of the game screen is too large in the browser, both the width and height are very high, and I had to play with a zoomed-out view in the browser. But aside from that, great job!

unfortunately, I don't know how to fix the screen size. I set a custom resolution for the game (1920 x 1080) so that all of the Ui elements are always visible to the player. that's probably my fault for using regular labels for all the Ui and not doing anything to account for screen size. that's something to be aware of for next time, I guess.  Something i was not expecting when i started making games was that trying to get the basic things like Ui to work on other systems
