Very impressive presentation! I did find the four audio clips that are currently in-game. I liked that two people were trying to connect but had swapped the position numbers. I would love to see more gameplay. It did seem like you were hinting that you could broadcast with one of the audio clips but when I moved the satellite and pressed the mic button nothing happened. It would be nice to have some ambience and button sound effects. Lots of potential here! Great theming as well. Well done!
I think the game looks really good, and that it has an interesting setup. Having to string along different messages and set the settings correctly are a cool puzzle concept. The visuals are also pretty detailed, and the audio is pretty crisp as well.
My only real critique is that of the abrupt ending. It appears that the game has no actual end, and that the voice call that gives you the directions of (2, -4) don't lead to anything. This is a game jam game, so games are expected to be short and simple, but I wish there was some indicator for when the game is over. Either way, this is an interesting game concept to explore in the future if you want to.
Great job!
Very fair critique. Next time I make something like this, I will plan the story out from the start and work from there. This time I focused on visuals and functionality first (I am a programmer by trade after all), so the game didn’t come together as a good experience. A good learning opportunity there.
Thank you for your feedback!
This game really has tremendous potential. Perhaps the fact that they tell you stories and being able to solve them through a radio studio in a apocalyptic environment, it's fascinating.
The gameplay makes it stand out very well, maybe making the game have a micro ending or knowing that you are contributing something in every scenario that you hear something would be cool.
Nothing more to say. Nice Job!
I agree that the game should have had at least some interactions / an ending for the purposes of the jam. Thanks for playing!
Hey! I made a video of this jam where I gave feedback to the games including yours! Hope it helps! :D
If you left a rating on my submission too it would be much appreciated!
Thank you for playing and your feedback! I can answer why it wasn't working: the buttons you clicked first above the frequency control were supposed to do something, but I didn't end up using them. I must have left them in by mistake! Also, yes you made it to the end, there's not a lot of content in it at the moment.
i think of all the game submited this was the one i was the most exited for. the idea is really really great. but the execution could need overhall, i think if this game was really polish i would have no problem paying money for this game. maybe having the abilty to move troughout the bunker and changing more machine could be good.
i like these ideas!
Thanks for the comment. I'm glad you liked the idea. I'm a much better programmer than writer, so with my limited time I focused on the visuals/concept. I like the idea of moving around the bunker!
i also whant to say i kinda not joking whit like paying if this was extended. there's a 2 game that comes one is "Signal Simulator" and the other i don't reamenber. but this is trully has pottential, wish you the best.
Signal Simulator is an excellent comparison, thanks for telling me about it
