Wow super cool game! the game really had a scary apocalyptic dystopia vibe to it. I liked how the art was detailed and clean. The Music and the alarm of the voices also put a good feel to the game. Overall good job.(:
Thanks for checking it out and the kind comment 😄
For now developer and only a week to create this game, you did a great job!
Looks nice, plays well (weapons reload time is a bit off), and sounds nice. The theme for this jam was a bit difficult, and I can see where the theme fits into the story, but don't feel it was really used effectively in the game.
Thanks for checking out my submission and I'm pleased you enjoyed it. The theme is meant to fit thematically and not mechanically. While cliche, I feel it the game fits the theme well and provides an alternative to the many submissions with deliberately obtuse mechanics. Appreciate your time.
Overall the game was pretty nice. The voice acting was suprisingly decent; I guess it was by your family. The art was also good and the background music nicely sets the tone of the game. However, I do have some points of critique.
My main issues are with the gameplay. The weapons have a slow fire rate and take forever to reload. So guess what's the best tactic? Running away and leaving your child behind, until they have finally reloaded. The guns also don't shoot any bullets, making it hard to see were you're shooting. This works alright since the enemies have impact effects, but I would still like to see my bullets.
The game also didn't fit the theme. "It was all a dream" ain't gonna cut it man. Though, it was nice playing a game that wasn't all obscure and unfriendly to the player; just to fit in with the theme.
Glad you liked the game overall. Something tells me that's not so easily earned from you.
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to leave a comment. Cheers!
woah.. that really nice. love the audio/sound actor.
Thanks!
Enjoyable game. One of the best I played.
The time to charge up the bat is maybe a bit long. I think it could be better if it was faster to charge it, making the other weapons with limited ammo that we can find hidden in some places on our way.
Glad you liked it! I kinda agree with you on the bat CD. I'd make it a little shorter in the future. Not sure if I want to make ammo a resource or not yet. I'd originally designed it that way but changed my mind at the end. Thanks for your input. Cheers!
I realy like this one, the countdowns on the weapons courreges you to switch your weapon and take a different approach on enemies. The story is simple but still fits the theme, graphics are nicely done and the voice lines and music make the game more immersive.
Great submission :)
I'm so happy that you understood the weapons mechanics. A few other comments here didn't seem to understand the long CD's were meant to force you to change weapons. I appreciate that someone got it. Cheers!
I loved it, one of my favorite jam games! The story is so immersive thanks to the voices and the graphic style in my opinion is really good with the theme of the game. The only flaw I think is the shooting because it's really heavy, especially with the keyboard. Great job for one man!! :)
this is my game, if you'd like to try it: Superhero Academy
Appreciate your kind comments and I'll be sure to checkout hero academy.
One developer? Awesome job! I really liked the game and the voice overs. The game is pretty tough, but then again I'm terrible a playing games lol! My favorite weapon was the shotgun, but I was very sad when I ran out of ammo:(
Lol I'm also terrible and just bad at games so you're in good company. My favorite weapon is also the shotgun. Appreciate your time! Cheers!
my review:
I really liked the game, the grapics were amazing, but the voice acters were the best it felt so real.
the theme is ok I mean the hole thing was just a dream so yeah oke it fits.
I had much fun playing it, just one thing, I think you should delete the funktion to press "k" to box with the fists, that makes the game too easy, I could spamm it and all enemy could do anything against me.
keep up the great work. maiby you can have ah look at my game too :D https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/477017
Haha! You found a mechanic I forgot about when I was developing the game. I meant to take out the "push" (k) mechanic and forgot about it till now. It's sad I even made an animation for it and didn't plan on using it. Nice job. I'd say you win for finding leftover over developer stuff 😆Thanks for checking out the game!
sure :D
I wish I knew about the cheat code lol
😝
Wow. This is a well made game. The environment is spectacular, the music goes so well with the game and I haven't connected to characters of a game so fast. The voice acting is brilliantly done. Love the story. Overall a very fun game with good character build up. You should continue with this game, it has all the elements for success.
Your comment was so encouraging. I read it aloud to my wife and boy (who did the voice acting) and they were so excited. Really glad you liked it and appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment expressing your enjoyment. Your comment makes me want to continue working on this. Thanks, Kamran :)
Interesting experience and great voice acting with a special twist for dodge rolling.
Hey thanks for checking out the submission. Appreciate your time 😀
Fears of a parent? I have 4. I'm not worried about alien invasions, I'm worried about them being stupid and falling off the stairs because they were running down them, while picking their noses and not paying attention at the fact that one of them left a jeep toy on the top step. No aliens though. :)
The art is consistent, which is good, but the style diminished the impact of the drama somewhat.
Generally speaking the animations were a little imprecise, as in slidy, as well as they could be interrupted at unexpected times. Again, a bit of a blunder for immersion.
The highlight of the game for me was the voice acting. By no means at a professional level, but it still helped with immersion substantially. The best part was when the girl asked her mother about how the world was before the invasion.The endlessly replenishing guns diminished the sense of danger.
I don't think the theme was hit. Literally any game could be concluded with "it was all a dream, lol".
Pretty solid entry though. Nice seeing some ambition by having voice acting that's meaningful in a game jam game.
Took me a bit to understand this was a roast and a bit of satire. Thanks for the great goof! A++
It's a quick but great experience.
The art is amazing, really. The music also fits the game really well. The gameplay itself is pretty basic, with some simple combat and easy-to-use weapons, which goes along with the climax of this short story. Even though you can finish it in 5 minutes, it is fairly imersive, and you feel empathy for the characters, too. The voice acting is incredible, and the dialogues are pretty interesting as well.
Honestly, the only complaint I have is that you didn't put "space to shoot" in the controls in the game's description, so I kinda took some time to figure that out, but other than that there's not much to criticize.
It's not a complex game, but it certainly has it's charm. Nice job!
Dude you had such a useful critique. I completely forgot to mention the damn "spacebar". Seriously, thank you. Appreciate your kind comment and rating. Cheers!
Good game !!! The voice acting was amazing !!! Rated!!
Check out my game too .. and rate it.
Thanks for checking out "Rogue Planet". I've both played and rated your game.
GOOD JOB
Thanks Sir!
Sounds are great. Graphics looks nice - especially animations. Although fighting those monsters wasn't easy running is always an option :D Anyway I would love to see more of this game.
