It's quite a shame that such potential couldn't be made in time! Your art and music were quite nice already, and I can see some of the ideas developing in the game. Continue working on it! Best of hopes for future games!

Developer

Thanks for your kind words! It may only look good as it is right now lol

Definitely want to complete the game!

Submitted(+1)

Looks really good, but I don't think you should have been so embarrassed by the bugs and it not being complete. I uploaded a completely broken version where no enemies were being created, but the feedback from the other users have been really helpful and taken it for what it is. 
I would like to see where this goes.

Developer

Haha can't believe that you have a similar experience before!

Yeah, we can't finish the game on time but we definitely created a cool concept.
And we are really grateful and happy to share our development experience out here.

Hope you'd learn something from us. Also, hope you enjoy the Jam!

Submitted

yeah I did, feel free to give my entry a view.

I can see from the art/design, UI, and music that you really have a solid foundation & concept, and know exactly what you want to accomplish. I think it is only the matter of the scope that is not well suited for the jam, but I know I will be waiting for the finished build that really reflect the team's vision. Good luck in the future development, I am rooting for you! Cant wait! :)

Glad you like everything we have so far! We would love to make it playable as soon as possible.

Hope you also enjoy the Jam!

Wow, it looks really beautiful and polished, looking forward for the completed version, I'm sure it will be great to play too!

Looks really good ! Also nice choice of Music. Would really like to see the finished game :D

Submitted(+1)

Honestly, this was enjoyable enough to just sit back, relax, listen to the music and watch the monsters drift on by. The art and stuff shown off in the dev log looks awesome and I really hope you guys keep at it, obviously, I can't say how it'll play, but, it looks like you had some cool ideas and from a style perspective you knocked it out of the park!

Developer(+1)

I am so happy that you enjoy that peaceful moment that may not exist in the real gameplay lol

hope you also enjoy the jam!

Great UI hahaha, the art and music was super chill, I wish you well with your next release post jam, what you have now is an interesting start for sure.  If you could stop by our game & give us some feedback, we'd greatly appreciate it!

It is really chill to enjoy the amazing music while watching monsters pass by. Thanks for sharing the development ideas and the process, a little devlog in the description is a very nice concept which i may will borrow in the future :DDD 

Developer

Haha happy that you enjoy the vibe. Go ahead and share your progress :) You will learn even more from it. Enjoy the jam!

The work you have done so far looks really good. Hope I can actually play it some time.

Submitted

I hope at last you enjoy the expirience, lessons learned fot the next jam. 

Developer(+1)

Hello, Thank you for your support. Hope you enjoy the jam too.

I "personally" disagree the idea of being rush in 48hrs like what we all did in the jam. But I think it is a good platform for us to brainstorm a new game idea so I would join these jams like twice or thrice per year.

Our team participated in many jams before and yes indeed, we can rarely finish a game each time. Well, yes you could say we should focus on a smaller scope in the jam. My other teammates may feel sad about the failure of finishing the game on time. But to me, no.

Anyways, hope we can finish the game in next jam :)

Developer

No. I don't feel sad lol

We just learned a lesson. Also, get an awesome idea!

Submitted(+1)

Really big scope for the jam. Looks promising though!

Developer

Thanks man! Hope you also enjoy the jam!

Submitted

Seems like it would have been a fun game, has some nice art though. I also like how you included a summary the development of the game in the description.

Developer

Thank you for your comment. We are planning to release a working version next week so please come back if you are interested in the complete gameplay.

Submitted

Would be an awesome game by the looks of it, I hope you still finish it after the jam!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your interest. We are currently working on the release version. Please come back after a week!

Submitted

Looks like a good idea. Unfortunate that it stayed an idea. :(

Hopefully, you can finish it after the jam! I would like to try it out!

Developer

Thank you for your interest. We are currently working on the release version. Please come back after a week!

Submitted

The art style and music for this game are really promising

i hope you release a working version at some point

Developer

Developer

I saw that you said that the game play was not finished, but I actually couldn't do anything, liked the art though.

Developer

Glad you love the art! Yeah there's no gameplay. A lot complicated than we expected.

Unfortunate that you couldnt finish it, looks like some PvZ type gameplay

Developer

We think too big
