A very neat concept and of the few levels there are, they are all well designed. However, movement is a bit odd, and sometimes buggy. Well done.
This is a really nice looking game, the premise is easy to understand, the gameplay is easy to learn, I think this is great. The movement could do with being sped up just a little bit and at some points it's not as challenging as perhaps it could be, but as a game jam submission this is amazing
Nice idea, and very nice art. Movement could be a little faster and levels more challanging as everything can be solved by sit and wait :) Great work for one Developer though!
Check out ours if you like :) https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/463199
just did it. Funny thing is ... I idnt found your game in this post but somewhere else in the community :D
And: Download the Hard Mode ;)
I am pretty sure I saw a very similar board game somewhere! :) looks great.
It surelly as awesome art and really cool sounds but it is a bit buggy. Anyway a really cool idea.
One of those "easy to learn, hard to master" games where big part of the fun is just the challenge of figuring out all the nuances of the mechanics. Love the tension of seeing how a planned move will actually play out, especially since you're so fragile.
Very lovely mood, really warm and cozy thanks to the great sound design, visuals and music! It's an atmosphere which really makes you want to spend more time in this game.
It was alright, found the control to be a bit clunky and I felt like the game should aromatically switch to the Enemy when you fully used your turn.
Thanks, I thought about something like that as well. Controls is definetly something i will put more work in :)
Wow! What an incredibly beautiful game. The concept is simple and well executed, and I love the sound design. The way the lines snapped to corners was very satisfying. The enemy turns felt a little slow though, and perhaps didn't need to be broken into sub-steps within the enemy's turn, e.g. in level two. Otherwise this is a fantastic game, and glad I got the chance to play it!
seriously great, if you polished this and added some more levels and content I would buy it
So, this game has one of the best visual and sound designs of anything I've seen on the game jams to date, and I think it's criminal that it doesn't have more plays yet, as it definitely deserves them.
However... (sorry!)
Unfortunately, it looks like there's an input bug with the faries, as I sometimes get a blue line when I think the distance is probably too far, and the instruction doesn't get executed, and sometimes I have to tell a fairy to move twice before it'll move, which really has an impact on how the game feels it plays, which is a real shame. I haven't played the Hard Mode yet, however I do have it downloaded and I will definitely be playing it at some point soon.
Finally, if you don't release this as a mobile game some time soon, I will hunt you down and stand beside you tutting disapprovingly until you do, as it definitely deserves expansion and polish into a complete product. :)
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for playing.
I'm aware of the input bugs. There is an issue with the pathfinding I couldn't figure out in this short time period. Definitely I will continue work on this game and fix this in later updates :)
Thanks for keeping me motivated :D
Controls are a bit buggy, i can't really tell where I can and can't move the fairy sometimes, but oh my god this is easily the most visually beautiful game in the jam. Also, the idea is extremely original. Great job!
