Great game

Fun game! But the other monkeys move too fast.

Take a look at my game too!: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/928164

Thanks, for feedback. We wanted to go with fast moving monkeys. Like in old days where you had to do level multiple times before proceeding to next level :D

Submitted

monkeys are funny, but they move too fast, and I'm almost seasick. did not pass the game to the end, because the levels are very monotonous :)

Really fun game! I thought the controls were a bit hard to control, but I think its adds a good element of chaos to the game. Adding some walking animations would have sent this to the next level. Overall really fun!

Ngl, I had a lot of fun hunting the monkeys. I do think that the controls are a little bit on the icy side, and the fact that the darts are really small and the same color as the background make them almost impossible to avoid. But it was really fun, here is a little derpy fun game. Great job!

Ooh ooh ah ah its monkey time.

Pretty cool the audio was pretty good and I liked when the hunter was trapped. Ran into a few bugs, the level generation put me on a corner surrounded by water and I died on the first mission as the hunter was captured and 'won'. The character movement was really hard to control but could be on purpose as crazy monkey movement.

The sound effects for the game really sell it, the art was minimal and the lack of animations dont cheapen things much, the movement controls were definitely a bit too floaty but I was having fun, reminded me of a game called Ape Escape.  (I laughed when I realized I could stack holding the monkeys)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Controls seem the most disliked part of this game, so we definitely should have addresses before 😀

Cool game! The player movement needs fixing. Maybe try decreasing the player max speed.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Indeed, everyone dislikes the controls to some extent 😅

Monke good

The movement is really floaty and there are no animations for them, but the game is pretty comical. I laughed at the wide-eyed one especially.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback :) 

You are correct, we don't have any artists to just work on the assets, so we had to limit the scope to no animations. It would have been a much nicer experience. We should have probably focused more on the movement as well.

I found the game kind of hectic at the start, felt like the monkeys were walking on ice, a minimap or an arrow pointing towards the tree would have been handy

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! 

I agree, I also felt like a minimap would have been useful, as I often used the Scene View of Unity while playing. It was out of scope for us this time.

Cool game!

Took me a while to understand I can dash with a certain monkey, but it's quite useless as the normal monkey is faster.

Nice chill game, but I kept getting shot at when trying to get the hunter to the tree.

Well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! 

Yes, the dash is mostly useful only to get over some obstacles like water, which is necessary in Level 3, but it was implemented late and not very well :D

Thank you very much for sharing your game, I really like the idea!  :) Maybe I would lower the movement speed of the player a little bit because sometimes things get a bit chaotic and hard to follow. Additionally while playing I thought about limiting the number of monkeys you can carry at once to make the game even more difficult. But that's just some gripe at a high level, you did a great job and I had a lot of fun playing your game!

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback! :) 
There is a limit of 9 monkeys that you can carry, but I assume you're thinking of it being even smaller.

I agree about the speed as well, that's something we should have adjusted before release.

Submitted(+1)

I think fast movement fits this game quite well, but I think this is too fast, and it doesn't help that the movement is really slippery so it's very difficult to control. Still quite fun though, definitely not a bad game overall.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Speed seems like a commonly reported problem for us, and it's something we should have adjusted earlier. 

Submitted(+1)

Good game but I think make the monkey slower and the goal more clear can help. I don’t understand how you “lure the hunter to the tree”. I don’t speak english very well so it’s maybe me.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!

You can "lure" the hunter (there are hunters that hunt monkeys, and they are dressed as monkeys) by making the hunter follow you instead of other monkeys. Once you get the hunter close enough to the tree, the game should progress.

Ok I will try for sure ! Have you tested my game ? EDIT : I tried and that worked ! I re-rated your game !

Developer

Thanks a lot, I wrote my comment before going out, so I didn't have a chance to try it. I will try it out now and send leave you some feedback :)
