It's pretty and the theme is nice but really repetitive. the second level is a bit too hard. maybe make the spawns bigger and definetly make your water reserve bigger.

still  fun to play, good work :)

For a jam game, a 3gb downloadable is a very big ask.  For future jams, I would definitely recommend a lighter final build, especially if you can achieve the same concepts.

That said, this is a charming little game. I liked how the dodos popped out of the egg - I would have liked to see that animation a couple more times, maybe during an end sequence. Having newly planted coconut trees drop coconuts made finishing the bridge a lot quicker - I never found myself hunting for a coconut, so that water from the well was the main factor of time.

I did enjoy it, but the download was a real killer. Good work!

Thanks a lot for the feedback. The project is huge because I forgot to remove some temporary 8K textures I used as placeholders. Guess what, the project is now 330mb :)

Lesson learnt: don't use 8k placeholders hahahahha! Nice!

I don't know how, I don't know why, but here I am at 1:30 am finshing a game about building bridges between island using coconuts to make dodos mate.

Using UE during a jam is always a risky move, and while I would've preferred the land generation to be a bit bigger, since it usually takes me 25-30 trees to make a bridge, while going back to get water, would have been a bit tedious.. if not for the fact that I have three guys on discord screaming at me to get water and genuinely having a blast.

Holy moly, this is the last game I would've expected to see in a jam, but somehow I played it for an hour. Good job (can't review it yet cause not in my queue, but will receive a good review as soon as I can pick games)
