Thank you, but are you sure that you played the right game?

This game has no story

Submitted

Hahaha thanks for the advice! I tried to many games and I made an error in the copy and paste process from my notes! Otherwise this game has a cool mechanic and I like the graphic style!

This one was pretty interesting, I had to try it a few times to fully get it, but it's very entertaining and a neat original idea. Great take on the theme and great job with the game!

The game page deserves a 10/10 in presentation for sure! (originality is a close second hehe)

Really enjoyed playing the game, and the art style. It's a game every game designer should play.

Found the title very clever and funny too :)

I love the art style of enemies, the idea/concept of the game is pretty solid and well stablished, simple game but really entertaining.

I would recommend to add sound on the revolver shooting, killing enemies, when you lasso, etc...

Developer

Thank you so much for playing our game! And thanks for the feedback!

The art style is ... 😱😱😱! Well done! 

The game play is a bit hard to get used to (maybe a tiny hands-on tutorial at the beginning would have help), but really cool overall 😁

Developer

We really appreciate your comment! Thank you so much!

Lovely little game, took some getting used to but is totally worth it.

Developer

Thanks, it's sincerely great to see people enjoying our game, this made my day!

Really neat game. I had some problems when trying to use WASD but arrows worked just fine. With some sound effects and music this would make a hell of a game! Good luck!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! We're sorry that you had trouble with WASD keys, we don't know why that happened to you, we haven't had trouble with that! But we will try to fix it in some way. Regardless of that, thank you for playing!

Submitted

Needless to say, the art for this game is excellent. The style was excellently chosen, with a bit more feedback for the player, this could make a great game. Good work!

Developer

Hey! I'm the artist, thank you so much for your comment, It's really nice to see that a lot of people liked what I did! Thank you, we appreciate so much your comment!

I like the silhouette art style and the unique way to attack/defend yourself. Had to read the instructions and then pounder a bit before it clicked, :P, when then it was on....except I could not find the squishes...they spawned too far from me or something lol. I wish you would've had some time to add some sound to at least help find where they were and give the game that little more bit of character :) 

Developer

Hey, thank you so much for playing our game! We are so sorry about what happened to you with the Squid's spawning. It's very weird, I'm sure after the Jam ends we will be able to fix that. 

Submitted

Cool game! I really like the art style and yellow and black color pallet! I just wish it had some sounds and animation. Besides that I like this game!

Developer

Thanks, we really appreciate feedback! We wanted to add some music and animations, but we ran out of time unfortunately.  

Submitted

The look of the game is fantastic. Having some trouble understanding what to do unfortunately, though

Developer(+1)

Thanks for giving it a chance! We added a text tutorial down the description box, you could check it if you want! Thank you so much!

Submitted

I love the look of this game. I don't understand how lasso works. I feel like game need some sounds and more variety of enemies

Developer

Our artist is really happy with your comment! We added a little tutorial below that may help you. We really wanted to add sounds and more enemies, but we ran out of time! Thanks for your comment!

Submitted

yeah i know...48 hours is soooo little :D 

Submitted

This game looks really nice, and the controls feel slick and intuitive too. I didn’t really understand what I had to do or how to do it very well, so maybe a little help text or diagram may help?

Developer

Thank you so much for playing our game! We added on the description a little help for y'all. Like a tutorial! We didn't have much time to add it in-gamr, sorry! 

Submitted

i feel like this game would benefit more with a better explanation with what's going on. i didn't really know what "bolts" actually did or if they even hurt me, and i didn't realize that clicking on those things from the squid with my lasso would charge them directly at the squid. still, i think it's impressive that you've managed to finish game :)

Developer

Hey! Thank y ou so much for the feedback. Unfortunately we ran out of time to add some instructions or tutorial in-game. Luckly we put down in the description of the game some tutorial that may help! Actually the bolts hurt you, the black bar below displays your health, we had some problem with Unity not displaying it correctly, but the Bolts do harm you! Thanks for noticing the lasso thing! <3

Submitted

Fun game and neat mechanics!

Developer

Thank you so much! I really loved your game! <3
