How does your game fit the theme?
The game begins with a false sense of security as you are a time-travel tour guide who has brought tourists to the past. Initially, it feels like a relaxing and serene moment... but then things go wrong: the time machine malfunctioned, and in just 3 minutes, you'll be hit by a meteor storm.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?

Very fun game! Enjoyed the voice acting and gathering supplies. I'm so bad at keeping the tourist alive though haha
ahahahah I also have to balance it a bit!
The game felt very polished. It is fun trying to balance not letting the tourists die and collecting the mushroom that's the farthest xD
Would suggest adding a free Cam instead of something connected to the player. If it's a design choice, would suggest lerping the cam smoothly to the desired position. Would really make it better in me perspective.
Kudos!! :D
Thanks a lot for your suggestion! Since I'm going to publish it on Steam, I'm still updating it...and today I did exactly what you have said! Now the camera is a free camera and it feels much better! Thanks!
Will check it out on steam then!! :D
Thanks!
Dinosaur Games! Everything is clearly better with dinosaurs, having said that this game is super smooth, I love how fluid the animations and interactions are. It plays well and is so solid given it was made in a week! Impressive work!
Thanks a looooot for the nice review!!!
Hey!
This is quite polished! I like how it looks and overall how it plays, even though the gameplay is simple. The way you implemented the theme is smart, and I can't say I have any negative things to say about this. It's an overall good experience.
Though the sound effects for the resources are maybe broken? My right earbud makes a weird sound whenever I collect stuff. I tested it in some other music and games to see if the headphones were broken but no, it only happens when I collect stuff. A minor problem, mind you. But thought that I should let you know.
Well done! Cheers!
thanks a lot for the nice words! I don't why there is that problem...I didn't notice it, but I promise I will fix it! Thanks for saying it!
I managed to get a perfect score :D Nice game!
Really good!
Really great voiceover in the beginning, and clean straightforward mechanics, nice job on this!
Thanks a lot!
Really cool game, great graphics, gameplay is fun, I love also the wall, that is with shader, right? Amazing, great job
Yes I used a shader for the wall limit, another one for the safe are and another one to highlight objects when selected!
Thanks a lot !
Great art and funny mechanic to keep your tourists safe :D Also liked the intro voice, typewriter text effect and the time travel theme in general, good job! :)
Thanks a lot!
Played through your game on stream, if you wanted to watch me go through it ive got the vod below timestamped to your game
Thanks a lot! I'm sorry for the audio...I will fix it! The dinosaurs were a little bit dumb too in this version of the game...ahahah. I'm working on an update and to complete the game with a lot of levels to publish it on steam.
Now the enemies' AI is much better and it is a little bit harder to win the game with a perfect score
Great Game and Voice. But I think you need to add some extra layer of danger. Just to collect the resources before the timeout should not be the goal here, need to have some challenges like escaping from dinosaurs. Overall, great gameplay experience...
Thank you! I think that it is not just a gathering resources game. The "take care of the tourists" mechanic is important since it determins your score! Anyway you are right that this game might have a lot of more features, but in just a week it is pretty hard to do a totally complete game!
I'm working to complete it adding really a lot of new mechanics since I'm going to upload it on Steam!
Game is really nice! Voice acting is excellent, take on the theme is great, visuals are really nice. The thing a little bit lagging behind is gameplay in my opinion cause it's just gathering resources, not so much depth in here. Also the pickup sound effect gives me an ear rape which is pretty bad. My overall experience was pretty good though, especially the game introduction with the voice, man, so clean!
Thanks a lot! I appreciate your review! About the gameplay I think that it's not just gathering resources since you also have to take care of the tourists...but of course I agree that in the complete version that I will publish on steam there must be a more complete gameplay!
I had to think about XKCD comic 2976 ( Time Traveler Causes of Death ) when the intro twist got revealed :D Cool game. I managed to win with one tourist eaten, but I did not manage with less than one being eaten. You did a great job with that voice acting in that goofy intro and the generell setting is great.
Thanks a lot!! I really appreciate your review!
Wow, the game idea is awesome, I love collecting stuff to survive. The voice acting is awesome!
But why is it so short? :( Also I would like more different levels of difficulty, and I'm looking forward to the sequel!!!!
Wow! That's great! Of course there will be a massive update!
If you liked it so much you will be happy to know that in the next days there will be a Steam page for this game!!!
If you would like to know how I managed to make this game you can also consider to follow me on YouTube! I'm working on a video in which I will show how I made this game!
In the complete game there will be a lot of new levels, new features , new dinos and enemies... new gameplay mechanics and a lot of cutscenes!
Hi! If you're interested in seeing a massive update to the game, I just created the Steam page for it! It would be awesome if you could add it to your wishlist, it would help a lot!
Thanks!
Voice acting in any game jam game is an instant wow for me. I really liked the pacing as well with the time limit and resources. I think one thing I might change is making the dinosaurs scarier. At the start I was scared of them but then they never chased me. Sounds funny to say but I wish the dinos were more aggressive. Also for picking up wood the sound effect has a high peaking bit that played in the right ear of my headphone so maybe swap that one out if you do a post jam build. Really solid entry all around though and I think a great take on the theme!
Thank you a lot for for the kind words!!!
Yes for sure I will keep updating, I'm going to upload it on Steam! In a couple of days I'm going to make the Steam page and there I will need all the support and suggestions that all of you are giving to me!
I'm so happy for all the beautiful words! Thank you so much!
the voice acting was an awesome touch, the dinosaurs and the art in general look really nice! amazing work, i really liked the lore of your game as well! it really fits the theme :D
Thanks a looooooottt!!! I'm so happy! Have you any suggestions for future updates ? I'm going to publish it on Steam so I would really appreciate any ideas!
nice little game
Thanks a lot
Love the theme and art, and didn't expect the tourist twist at the end of the intro to complicate things lol. Fun game!
Maybe a minimap that just shows tourists would make it more manageable? But maybe then it'd be too easy to wrangle them in. Shoutout to dinosaur themed games of course :) Well done
Thanks a lot! The minimap could be interesting to add, maybe it could be added with a new mechanic. I'm thinking about to add gadgets to the game, which can give benefits during the game
Love the voice acting. The turning was a bit wonky - it would often turn me by 45 degrees or even 180 degrees when I barely tapped the turn button. I liked the general idea - had a retro 90s computer game feel. The models were on point.
Thanks a lot! I'm sorry for the character control! I know that I need to improve it a bit... I'm going to publish this game on Steam so for sure I will make it way better!
Thanks for the nice review!
Naw, dont apologize. It was a jam - and it definitely showed the point in the game and had some fun in there. You did well.
Thanks a lot!
Very cool game! I really like the polish with the outline on the pick-upable objects, and the art is super cute
Thaaaaank youuuu! It's a super easy shader to do! You can make it in 5 minutes!
Awesome intro dialogue! Great work!
Thanks a lot!!!
