The sprites and SFX are really cute, and the fact that your 7-year old created them for a game jam makes it even more fantastic. I really liked it; you should definitely keep developing more games together!

I really liked it! After I figured out that I must actually press the button to allow me to set a trap, I finally died after 9 and a half minutes by my own traps :-P Well done!

Location DustJust really cool and a lot of fun for such a "simple" mechanic. Really well done and a special congratulations to Louis!!

GrapplemanI lasted 2 minutes and had to give it another go.. managed to get 3 traps down next time around and was dominating lol Good Job!

Anti-Social AviatorA very nice game! I survived a total of six minutes.
Quite addictive gameplay that speaks to my need to build stuff.
I also loved the art. would love to see more of it. Hope you continue working on it.

The Last GrabI loved that all the sound effects are self-made. Gave the whole game something personal and many sympathy points! Cool game. Good job!
Submitted
The Last KittensCool game, great job guys! The sound effects made me laugh, they added a very unique touch to the game and i'm sure that you had fun recording them :D
Have you experimented with a bit less of movement speed? That would help when you need precise movements to sneak through.
Cheers ;)

Un-LITThanks csf91! I think we will make other games with my son. Many players have reported that the player speed is too high, and that is true! I think I'll lower the default speed in a near future but I have to wait for the end of the rating period :) I'll lower the speed and add a push to run on shift, something like that. I also wanted to add some kind of stamina bar that consumes on build and run.
nice art , and sound effects , I found the mouse pointer a little difficult to see at times

Birds and BeesI loved playing your game! The best part was definitely the sound effects those were unbelievable :) The trap mechanic felt very satisfying, and the art style was very charming and fit the gameplay. Great game!

Dracs After DuskThis is a nicely polished game and really interesting mechanic... the sprites look great :)

Arcane Siegelol I only got 27 of them. I like how you can set off your own traps, so you have to be really careful collecting the coins. I like how you can see the trap reloading and the blood trails the zombies leave everywhere. Nice artwork too.
Good job!

Last Garrison (Game Jam 2024)What a neat idea. I really like how the trap system works, but the sound effects are what take the cake! The pixel art was also spot on. Nicely done!
Submitted
The Last ExpeditionThis is such an adorable game, all the sounds effects really add to the overall charm of the game. I also really like the fact that you have to set and build the trap, it really adds to the tension of the game!
Submitted
The Witch's Last SpellThis was really fun and the pixel art is too cute!! Great work!
Submitted
The Last (Hotdog) Standits so wholesome that you're spending quality time with your son, keep up the good work!
Submitted
Canvas Intruder TV DemoI loved the sound effects! Tell the voice actor that Olive Hill Studios and many others will be lining up to record, but I'm guessing there is already an exclusive contract in place 😆
Great work!

Dracs After DuskI played this for faaaar longer than I should have, so you've done something pretty great with gameplay there.
I enjoyed that the mechanic was simple yet quite diverse in how it could be used, especially since your own defences can hurt you, so you can't (or at least shouldn't) build just a giant death circle or stand in the middle of a cluster of traps.
I enjoyed that you leaned into your kid making the sound effects, it gives your game a charm that wouldn't be the same if you had "realistic sounding" sfx
Good job!

Earth DefenceCongrats on your score ! I think I have to make the game a bit more difficult or a least make some gameplay variation because at some point you can stay in you trapped bunker waiting for zombie to walk on your traps. I was thinking of the fact that you have to repair traps or taht some enemies can throw something at you so that you can't just wait in your bunker...
The game is very fun , i like the build mechanics is very cool lol
