How would it be to see dinosaurs during a time-travel? Hopefully not like that!

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?

voice over for text that makes easy to get into the story, not all itmes spawned to collect in time of 300, could not wait the each round the same voice over, sorry, e or other space key does not work to skip the repeat styled audio; But 5 Stars on Audio, when the time 300 was over the deflector shields did not get off so that protective barriers can’t block incoming fire and other projectiles, to hit the Ufo or Dinos to attack Alien Survivors, (or give more time with a direction indicator (heal or sell to many mushrooms) “Other aliens could warn and receive a call to return to base instead of being eaten by dinosaurs.”). Thank you all, for follow, play, rate our games: investus.itch.io

That was pretty interesting. I liked having to manage both the tourists and gathering resources, however, the dinosaurs weren't really much of a threat, so I feel like they could have done more here. When you win it just kind of ends, so my main suggestion would really be to add an ending cutscene where you escape, and get to watch the meteor storm roll in while the time machine warps out. Overall, nice work with this game!

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Yes I was working on it, but unfortunately I hadn't enough time to make it...! Thanks for playing it!

Hey! Congrats on submitting, this is success by itself and will make you better overall! Here is my review:

  1. Game Design:
    1.  GJ overall, i would just point that some dinosaurs stay close and eat tourists.  Even when i was just chasing tourists and didn't gather anything i got down to 6. I feel like it should be even very slightly possible to save everyone.
    2. also a minimap, arrow, or warning when a tourist leaves should exist cause you can't see them all the time to gather the supplies.
  2. Fun: 
    1. This is a bad criteria cause fun depends on who you target.  What i found fun was the voice in the start, the whistling to get tourists back.
  3. Innovation: 
    1. Has similarities with other games but i found it refreshing! Gj
  4. Theme:
    1.  I feel like it misses the storm part. Maybe if the environment lighting changed as you get close. to the meteors and even small meteors fall.   
  5. Graphics: 
    1. Very good, I loved the Dome effect.
  6. Audio:
    1.  Nice. Could have more sfx like meteors, running, dinosaurs eating and a background music.

Extra: make intro skippable to replay.

GJ Overall! I Enjoyed it! Keep it up!

Thanks a lot! These are all very good suggestions! I agree with you that there might be a lot of improvements, I will fix all of them!

Really fun game, I think it could be taken in different directions. Like juxtaposing the cutesiness with some more gore when the tourists get eaten or something else visual. Nice voiceover in the beginning. Would've Liked an option before the intro to change audio volumes. When picking up items, the sound itself isn't bad, but since it cuts out the ambience every time, it becomes a bit jarring. A starter screen and end screen would be nice as well. A bit nitpicky on my part I know, but I get like that with the games I like the best. Pumping this out in 7 days is insane!

Wow thanks a loooottt!!! I really appreciate comments like this! I was working on a menu screen where you could set the difficulty...I did it this morning but there was a bug and I hadn't enough time to fix it!

The settings menu is something that I have to implement since it would make the game more complete.

I'm open to other suggestions! I think it might be cool to have also more maps where each map has it's own characteristics and also new dinosaurs. What do you think?

Submitted

Ye, like having the first be the slow T-rexes. Perhaps a mechanic where on another map the monsters are small raptors but there has to be like 2 of them next to a tourist to get them. maybe a map where the tourists can seek shelter under something from Pterodactyls swooping down after them.

Really nice game, reminds me of the meteors in Ark, where you have to protect the base, I love the control of the player, the sound quality is great. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! I'm happy you liked it! If you have some suggestions I would be happy to know!

Thanks for the nice review!!

The idea is so original, and the game is really fluid! I love how all the characters, as well as the dinosaurs, seem to have their own life.

A good improvement could be adding a difficulty selection to make it simpler or harder. I enjoyed playing it so much that I would love to see the game with more levels and some new mechanics!

Please keep updating it!!!

Developer

Thanks a lot! I think I will keep updating it!
