Nice game!
I liked the gameplay though at first, it was a bit confusing, good job!
btw if you can play the game that I made and give me some feedback I really appreciate it :)
Good idea! Must be polished, but it was already a good fun. Good job!
Thank you! Will do!
As other pointed out had problems with controls. But the overall idea is very neat! I could see this game on a phone as a fun way to spend some time during work break.
Really impressive for me.
Yes, I know the controls need to be fixed. In fact they already are, I’m just waiting for the end of the jam to release a bug-fixed version. Who knows? Maybe you can play it on your phone soon after I’ve worked on it a bit more.
Thank you for playing and the nice words!
Nice little fun game. Enjoyed playing it.
Thank you for playing and I’m glad you liked it!
nice idea! the click however sometimes work and sometimes doesn't. I'm playing the webGL build.
Yes, I know there are issues with the mouse. I’m waiting for the jam to end to upload a fix. Thanks for playing and your comment!
An original and fun little game! Sometimes it doesn't work so well, but the seed is there. Polish and expand it after the jam, please!
Thank you! Will definitely do!
An original and very basic gameloop which works great! Some polish can be added, but overall this is well done!
Thank you for playing and commenting!
Just reading the comments and see you came up with and made this in a day? That ace.
Yeah it's buggy, but the concept and the gameplay is there. Well done for smashing this out in a day! :D
Thanks a lot! Yeah, I actually was aiming to make a turn-based minimal RPG but that went really wrong. I resigned myself to not having anything to show for the jam but then the idea for this game came literally overnight: I woke up very early in the morning of last Friday with this in mind and… here we are. I did some bug-fixing on Sunday though, the game was even more broken on Friday evening.
Has some bugs but a pretty good concept for a game and could be a fun little mobile/tablet game to play. With some cleanup and improvement as well as simple little animations and things to make it pop i think it could be very good. Keep it up.
Thank you! I will keep working on the game. I actually managed to fix the mouse issues, so you can expect a bugfix release as soon as the jam is over.
What are the controls for this game? I want to play but I can't seem to do anything once the game is loaded. :)
It’s mouse (or finger) only. Click on the Start button, then you can drag the nuggets to the golden bucket… hopefully. That doesn’t really work that well. xD Good luck!
Had a bit of hard time to pick up nuggets but after a few tried I managed to get the hang of it, clicking in the middle apparently works best. overall fun game and lol at the evil chickens, made me laugh. well done.
Thank you for playing and I’m glad you liked it!
Once picked up, some nuggets got stuck to cursor until time ran out.
Good job
That’s too bad! I’ve also noticed this behaviour sometimes. Not sure what causes it specifically. Thanks for playing!
There is a bit of collision bug but that shouldnt be too hard to patch when you get the chance. I think it has alot of potential. If you could add the info about game the same way as you decscribe everything in the gamepage that would add quite a bit to the visuals and fun part, like where you make the joke about the chicken being upset. I also think you could maybe set the timer to restart with each level and maybe less time each time you succeed or something that knocks the ball out of your grip maybe as an added challenge instead of just a timer, It makes for very short play as is but its fun. good job.
Thank you! I actually thought of adding a tutorial along the lines of what is now the How to play section in the itch.io page, but came up with this idea literally the last day of the jam and didn’t have enough time to implement it. I’ll definitely revisit and rework it after the jam.
The colliders are really weird. I needed to click EXACTLY at the center of the ball to be able to pick is up, and I got some weird bug where a ball got stuck on my mouse and I couldn't remove it from there...
Yup, picking up the balls is a nightmare. Sorry about that! Although that issue about them getting stuck to the mouse position is a new one… I´ll revisit this after the jam. Thanks for stopping by and leaving feedback!
Interesting twist on the theme. I had some issues with the mechanics as it would not let me take the ball up to the bucket for some reason. Thanks for sharing :)
Hmmm… Well, I know picking up the balls is much harder than it should be, but taking them up to the bucket once you do shouldn’t be an issue. Thanks for playing and your comment!
You have a great idea here but it is too broken to play.
I was able to pick up the balls once they settled(absolutley still) on my first round but after that nothing.
I really like the idea and think it could be a fun game, just need to iron out the issue that it can't be played right now.
Thank you for your feedback! Yes, picking up the balls is really hard so it’s virtually unplayable. It’s meant to be annoying but in a good way, not like this. Oh well… I’ll take a look after the jam is over.
As I say, I think it has great potential so don’t be put off by my comment… some tweaking and it will be there :)
Thanks! And don’t worry, I appreciate your opinion. There’s nothing wrong in saying that my game is broken because it is. :)
Fix released! It doesn’t change a lot but at least it’s playable now.
I know it is a prototype and that it is broken, but the main problem I'm facing is that I don't understand the game.
Can you add some help in the game page? It will help, for sure.
Consider it done! Let me know if you still have problems figuring out how to play it after reading the section “How to play”.
Thx! Now that I know how it works I can say that the concept is interesting, but it still have issues. It is quite difficult to take the balls
True, I noticed you can’t pick up the balls unless they are still and against the ground or a wall, it’s in known issues. Unfortunately the bugfix time is over so I’ll take a look at it after the jam. Thanks for playing (or trying at least)!
You need to upload the .pck as a zip file. :)
Right! Forgot to check the ¨embed pck option¨ for Windows and Linux. Now it should work fine. Thanks for the feedback!
Pretty broken. Will fix after the jam.
Well, you're not wrong. But I still managed to force three nuggets into the bin by picking up wrong bits and using them as a shovel with the wall. So ha! I played your broken game! I hope you go back and fix this, it looks like it could have potential.
Thank you for taking the time to play it and the nice words! It means a lot.
