I like the mechanic, seems like it has cool potential for a puzzle game. I’m not really sure how to consistently use the A spell though (sometimes the blobs move, sometimes they don’t? Can’t tell what direction they will move either until I try it out)
Cool music too, this has potential
Sorry for the incontensty of the spells ! Normally, it just push away every ennemie directly around it. But the version was a bit buggy (specialy around the edge of the map)I hope it doesn't ruin the experience either
Very clever mechanics with lots of applications. Almost feels like a twist on a Sakoban game or something Zachtronics would put out. Also great slime animations seem to be a theme this jam and yours are no exception. Great work!
Thanks you ! This jam was indeed slimy
really fun game and definitely fits all the aspects of the jam! great job.
few things to consider! would have been really cool just to have an intro screen with a menu showing basic controls.
im not sure if it works for this game but also having some type of level counter would have been nice to see how far you have progressed. "though i couldn't make it past level 4"
Thank you !
We will make a tutorial screen, yeah, it's seems more than nescessary in regards of all the comment... But the level counter is also a good idea ! (but we have to find a place in the screen where to place it... uho... that's another problem...)
The main mechanic for this game is so fun to use.
I found it challenging to plan diffrenent strategies to complete the various grid levels. I did find the spells slightly confusing at the start when playing but understanded both spells well after using them.
Maybe you could introduce the spells later in the game when you do need to start using them for each level?
Thank you for all the compliment !
And yes, the order of the level was not the best, but I mostly to blame : I make a tool for the Level Designer, but this tools only allow to add more level after the one you already created. You have to destroy level to add some in the first position then to recreate them.
But if we make a new version of the game, we will probably go this way !
I rather enjoyed this game. I just found it a bit hard to figure out how or when the monsters move. I would have liked a tutorial.
We are working on that ! We will probably add a tutorial on the web version
Such a fun puzzle game. Requires good forethought and I enjoyed the way the music seemed to synchronise with the spell moving. I was so disappointed to reach the end.
Thank you very much ! (And congrat on reaching the end ! I though the little glitchyness block you from finishing the game, glad to ear overwise !)
Some levels I did have to complete many times and I didn't know why. But I think it brought me back to the first level eventually, so I think I finished it.
This is a really great game! The puzzles are smart, challenging but completely balanced! The art was great, the music was a little repetitive by the end, but this was 100% felt like a Game Boy game, I loved it, well done!
Thanks you ! We fear that the puzzle was both too simple or/and too complex ! We will maybe make a version 2 of the game with more juicy level to balance the difficulty curve
I loved this game, really a great puzzle game. The music is waaay too good, the graphics are great and the idea of changing the color palette is very nice. Only downside, a little tutorial could have been welcome, but otherwise really a great game ^^
The musicians thanks you ! Ehehe ! Really, thank you for your comment, it was really cool ! And yes, a little tutorial would have been cool, at least, an image with a resume of how it works...
So simple and fun!
Thank you !
