Incredibly ambitious for such a short period of time! The perspective is cool and I like the concept of crafting and rebuilding. Cool stuff!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Very cool submission. I love the pseudo 2D 3D feel. Brings me back to Paper Mario. I can tell a lot of thought went into the crafting engine. I think it could be fun to implement some sort of tutorial at the beginning or objective to guide the player through crafting things. Just to help them get on their feet.

Excellent submission!

Developer

Good idea!

This game is pretty relaxing, and has a fun crafting loop.

If I could muster any criticism, it would probably be in the lack of sound effects, but other than that it's pretty solid.

Overall a fun building and crafting game. I enjoyed the background song and enjoyed the main gameplay loop of the game.

If you wanted to improve, I suggest adding in some UI enhancements. For example, have a check or an x in the corner of an item to show if you have the components to craft it or not. Also give some sort of feedback when an item is build, I often times was confused if I had actually had anything built or not.

Overall a solid core for a fun crafting / building game, just needs a little more polish on the UI

Thanks for the feedback!

Perfect Game. Played it more than my own. I just had to build that house. Then after all that building, sifting, smelting the house was tiny... couldn't even fit the guy in it. ( had to be critical about something). Loved it!  Great work!

I think it's a very cute game, but in my opinion it needs some improvement in the UI area... I didn't know how many rocks I had, I think they are missing from the inventory. I also found a bit annoying having to jump so much between the inventory, recipes and "maker devices" screens, I wished there was a better way to navigate this information, maybe having a fixed bar showing the inventory would help? Although I know that could take up too much space of the screen. I thought the graphics were very cute, just a bit confusing for some items (like the symbol for plastic or clay, they don't seem very descriptive). I rated the music so low because it becomes repetitive very quickly, so, I get the spirit of it, but I think some variation would help it a lot. Good work in any case! Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! The music was a sort of 'last minute' addition,  and the UI was rushed (which can be attributed to the time-frame of the project). I made it more as a small test for another game I am planning. Thanks again for playing!

Cool, in that case I think you're headed on the right direction, keep it up!
