Not only is the game highly polished and well presented, it's also very fun! Even though it has very simple graphics, the stylised and pixelated look makes the game visually clear and understandable. The only thing I would improve is to make it a bit more clear what needs to be done, and adding some more feedback for when you complete a task (kick a player, fix something etc...). Should have more ratings for this kind of quality.
Otherwise, the use of the theme is fantastic and very unique! Huge props :D
Tricky to understand but quite fun once you get it
It's not immediately obvious how you're supposed to control and do things in the game, but after you learn, it's quite the relaxing experience! I would like an option to mute the music though, because after a while it's pretty repetitive.
Fun concept, I was first a bit confused at first but then realized that I had to take care of all the dead bodies and glitches in the game haha.
I really liked the idea here, once I figured out exactly what I was doing it was fun :) really liked the pixelated effect too. It seems there's no reason to not hold lmb so I did the whole time to win. I think your writeup on the game page doesn't have the controls listed properly, maybe something got deleted? Recommend you fix that up. Well done :)
That is an interesting flaw I didn't realize... Thank you for the feedback!
Good game and great concepts! Making you feel the power of Admin! And I like the unique style of graphics too.
Just that I thought something is wrong when I pressed Mouse1 and nothing happen, then I realized I need to hold it instead.
Initially it was just pressing the button once to fix things, when I changed it I forgot to change the interaction text😅
I enjoyed a lot the graphics, the gameplay was nice although sometimes was difficult to hold the mouse button on moving entities. Overall great work!
This was a really cool concept! The pixel shader was a neat touch. I encountered several weird bugs: some buildings were not repairable and some players spawned underneath the world and were unreachable.
My suggestion to boost the gameplay even more if you build on this game further: instead of losing if all players on a team are disconnected, perhaps have a meter representing how much "fun" the players are having. If there's too many hackers, bugs and disconnected players, the fun meter deteriorates and you lose when it reaches zero.
Thanks for leaving your analysis!
I do plan on updating it a little when we are allowed too so that really helps.
Challenging and polished! Great job with this one!
what a cool concept
This is a cool and unique concept for this theme. And the pixel style looks good. Good job.
Cool concept with a great implementation!
Really unique take on the theme, good game!
That's great to hear, thanks for playing!
This is the most uncommon usage of the theme I have seen so far, and I like it. The game starts out peacefully, then all of a sudden turns into a giant ball of chaos and then again returns to peaceful. I actually had a lot of fun playing this. It felt relaxing and stressful at the same time, making just the perfect balance. The music was calming and the old pixelated 3d graphics was a nice vibe. Great game!
That is a lot of praise thank you so much!
Interesting game! I liked the feeling of flying around while a bunch of stuff was happening, and not needing to worry about it. The game does a good job of making the player feel like a moderator
Thanks for playing!
I genuinely enjoyed this game, I loved the actual battle and how unique this game is. It was overall amazing and I might keep playing in my free time
cute little game! it was fun moderating the small lobby of players and was cool watching the fight! but after playing for a while it locked my mouse in place and the game froze and didnt let me do anything.. idk what i did but from the time i played it was a fun game!
