Interesting concept and build mechanics! You should keep working on it for sure~ :D

Thanks for your comment :D

Nice little game! It was very fun building the different vehicles. Maybe add a restart button, for when the wheels are in the air.  The graphics were also very good. Impressive work for 48h.

Developer

Thanks :D, the restart button is esc

THAT WAS INCREDIBLE.

Honestly, I had a blast playing this, it was SOOOOO COOL ! I LOVED the concept, the execution is really good, and, even if it has amazing content for a 48h jam, I WANT MORE =D ! The theme is perfectly respected, and oh my god, that was so amazing !

My only little negative comments would be that the camera is a bit too close to the player, so it's difficult to understand where to go and where are the obstacles, and the game lacks music. Otherwise, it's a nearly flawless entry.

Keep up the good work, and please, ping me if you release a post-jam version =) !

Loved this one! Reminded me of Besiege

Nice conept, but the start was a bit to slow for me. Maybe I was just to stupid :D 

But you hit the theme well!

Nice game! The open-world aspect fits it really well. Good job on making the editor, that is super cool for a jam game :)! Overall a lot of content! I think the game could have a slightly faster pace (saving the last vehicle could help with that) and I found the sound effects a bit annoying. But I like how when you're building there is a template for a simple vehicle, that is such a nice touch for learning how to play! Well done :).

Thank you very much for your comment :D and by the way I tell you that I really liked your game, thank you very much for the feedback and I apologize for the sound effects that I did rush them haha

Great building game, especially with all of the different parts!

I like the concept, it reminds me of bad piggies which has a very similar playstyle. My suggestion would be to add some sort of detail to the wheels to make it clear they are spinning!

I had a lot of trouble figuring out what I was meant to do, but after a few persistent tries eventually figured it out!

I actually spent a good full minute just clicking the available parts, just because I found the sound they made hilarious.

It was a lot of fun trying different vehicle builds and see them fail spectacularly one after the the other. This one is judging me for all eternity.


Developer

Thank you very much for your comment and I had not realized how much that vehicle judges me hahahaha

This is a really great game ! I loved it !

i got totally sucked in and played for like an hour, building my own vehicles gave the game a ton of replayability. sometimes in the building stage, the game would just break randomly and i would have to start over, but other than that, really nice game!

Developer

I am very sorry that you crashed the game after your time invested :( , I am aware of the problems with the menu and the version that I uploaded is the most stable haha, I am glad you liked the game and thank you very much for your comment :D

I enjoyed the game, I really like the mechanic, and the idea of getting something new and needing to restart the game is awesome, I tried to get the most collectables without restarting, it is super fun

Developer

xd, that is a good challenge, thank you very much for your comment and I am glad that you liked the game :D

Developer

There is a bug that I did not find in time since it is related to the last details that I made for the game, do not press play if you have not put any piece and do not remove a piece and then give it play, I apologize for the inconvenience

Submitted(+1)

I did play Bad Piggies and I like the inspiration a lot. This is the kind of game I can't even understand how it's made in 48h. Well done! I gave it a nice rating, this is impressive and 100% the kind of concept I love to see in jams

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much!, this type of comments fills me with motivation, thank you very much for your rating :D

Submitted(+1)

This reminds me of the old Bad Piggies game. Good times!

Developer

Thanks for noticing, I was inspired by bad piggies, it's one of my favorite games and I'm still playing it, the internet was gone and I couldn't think of anything for the jam so I started playing and the only game I had was bad piggies and it occurred to me to create a sandbox with the mechanics of joining pieces like bad piggies

Submitted(+1)

Bad piggies is one of my favorites too! Haven't played it in a couple years but you captured the charm.

Feels like a metroidvania and a roguelike

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for your comment, at first I wanted to add procedural generation but once I added it I didn't really like it so if I had put a little more effort into procedural generation it could have been a rogue like :)

Submitted(+1)

I had a lot of fun with this game, it is not often in a game that you want to restart as soon as you get a collectable.

I also like how there were certain collectables that you needed to change your shape to get to them and it added a lot to the game

well done on this one, i hope you continue with this because the concept is great

Developer

Thank you very much for your comment :D, I would still like to continue with the project, I still had certain ideas that I could not include in the game because I only had 12 hours to do it xd

Submitted(+1)

Ah, an overly-ambitious-physics-based-control-scheme-for-a-gamejam....you are a man after my own heart. Had a lot of fun messing around with this one. I would have liked to see the toolboxes you acquire not be available in the next run. I also ran into a glitch where I pressed "start" with an object in hand and got hard-stuck

Developer

Thanks for your comment : D and thanks for reporting that bug I really don't know why it happen xd but I'm glad you had fun with the game :)

Submitted(+1)

This is a really cool concept, and you got far with it! Enjoyed building my vehicle, but sometimes i think i froze the game when i accidentally clicked play without putting down any pieces. "Esc" didnt do anything in this case so i refreshed the page.  But other than this, i loved it <3 

Developer

NOOOOO, I know exactly why that error you mentioned happens, just in the last hours I changed the camera but I did not have time to do playtesting with the camera xd,  too bad I didn't realize it before but I'm glad you had fun building your vehicle :D and thanks for your comment!

Submitted(+1)

That was fun, trying to balance the size vs functionality so you can fit through the cave made it interesting. This same mechanic with a slightly more open environment could allow people to do some really fun things. Great interpretation of the theme!

Developer

Thank you, I also think that a wider world and with different mechanics to experiment would help the game but I did not want to underestimate the vision of the game, Thank you very much for your comment :D
