Very nice genre combo
Haha great game and idea!! Plants as mines ^^
I laughed because of the plants! It was fun.
Great concept! If you want to test our game there it is: https://astral-creation-studio.itch.io/your-princess-is-in-another-dimension
A lot of fun! You had good ideas and also executed them well. I love the day-night differences, the visual changes, the audio cue, arts in general, even the particle systems are great. Strategic garlic mines, that is hilarious and cool. I hope you get a chance to get your other ideas into a future version!
Great concept. Good execution. The game is fun. The mechanic took a bit to figure out, but it is fun. Love how the enemies become a statue in the day. Love how the game looks and sounds. The plant really gives the game a strategically uniqueness. Great job on the game.
It is a simple life but I'm a farmer by day and a vampire exterminator by night. I Got jumped by 6 Dracula, I don't think they were too happy with my simple farm life or maybe it was the garlic lol. This is a good game and the passage of time. Great concept. Fun game loop.
Fun little game :)
The music and concept was hilarious, wonderful use of the theme :):) only note would be to add a health display. Thanks for creating this!!
I've been playing it a bit and showing the game to friends and relatives and it now seems SO OBVIOUS that there should be a health display. Can't belive we didn't think about it ! Thanks for pointing it out and for the lovely feedback.
Loved the story/introduction, very funny :D Good choice of pixel art and animation as well!
Great job!
Cool idea and nice animations. I particularly like the way the enemies go inactive during the day! I had a little trouble hitting things but that could be a skill issue.
Definetly not you legend ! Thanks for the review.
Your game is really nice, i like how you can plant at day plants to protect you and at night you must fight against much different types of monster. Very unique and also the sounds are really nice.
Nice, I like this concept!
You really nailed the juxtaposing vibes of the calm daytime and the hectic nighttime! The gameplay itself was pretty fun, having some visual or audio feedback for when you hit enemies would be nice, I couldn't always tells whether or not I landed my shots. Very cool game, small additions like more sound and visual effects would go a long way to improve the game feel :)
Thank you ArmedChair. Very valid points you make here, it will be useful if we extend on this project.
Life is good everything is fine and then they ended up having my skin :'( Cool game with a theme perfectly respect.
it is a fun game, I love the art in this game. the concept of planting and also use that plant to combat is cool I think. Some detail like when in the day, the monster turn into a stone also really well done. But in my case, the slot for plant didn't show what plant will be planted so a little hard to know about them (just empty slot). This endless gameplay will be better if you also give the player way to upgrade themself, so the player also grow along with the enemy number. Overall good job for finishing the game!
Don't worry about the slots being empty, it was a mistake on our side XD. The upgrade (like unlocking plants or something along those lines) is a great idea, can't wait to mess around with this concept ! Thanks for your time and attention.
So glad I came back to this, it was alot of fun. still has a couple of issues that need to be ironed out but Id be interested to see what you do with this going forward. great submission.
Game seems pretty fun, but I still have the right click issue. Whenever I right click a couple of times in a row, my browser opens a new tab and I have to try to get back to the game. It's pretty fun otherwise. I like the mobs turning into stone during the day. They kept destroying a lot of my crops. It's deceptively difficult.
I planted garlic mines during the day, but is there a way to tell if they are working? Also, how do I plant healing berries?
The garlic mines grow if you water them with the right click and you have to scroll to the second item slot to use healing berries. Just realised that I should probably write the controlls down since we oculdn't make a tutorial X
It was semi playable for me, i could shoot vegetables into the ground lol its a shame because it looks like it could be a fun game. Ive left in unrated so I can come back once you fix the issues mentioned in the comments.
Thanks for the encouraging words ! We are fixing the build as we speak, should be a lot funnier now.
