Game was a bit laggy, and the game size was a bit large ... But good job for such a short time!

Nice game! Though am not sure why, but the whole world seemed to be tilting to one side? ^^; Don't know if that was intentional.

Very ambitious, great potential, nice one! :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

A nice idea 💡 implemented into a 3D game. The mechanics of the game are nicer but little more features will improve the game a lot.

Overall a very good submission.keep up the good work.

Be sure to check mine.

Will do! Thanks for playing!

Kinda wish there was more information in game for the controls/objectives. But I figured it out in the end. I like the concept here. I like the ambition. Manages to combine a sci fi/primordial earth vibe so well.

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playng!

Developer

Note: If you encounter a bug where the game freezes when you press tab (open the watch) try doing it when you are standing, not walking. Is an unfortunate bug I realized after submitting the game. Apologies 😕

Well this can be a nice start of something. It is just i could not really get into much stuff, because the tab was constantly frozing on me.

Game looks really good ^^

After looking why the game was freezing while pressing Tab I figured out that staying still worked so if anyone has the issue.

I manage to build the lightning rod but sadly nothing happened

You might have gone for something a bit too big but overall it was interesting and a very chill experience ^^

Developer

Thank you so much for your feedback and playing my game. Yeah I need to manage better my scope next time. And about your bug with the lightning rod, did you build it at the mountain peak? Is supposed to open a portal next to the rod after the lightning hits the rod and ends the game.

Both of us played with the "stuck in another universe" theme, but we did resize thing in a different way. Actually, in the begging I was thinking of going for this direction, so I'm glad to see someone doing a simillar idea

Developer

Thanks for playing :D Will check yours to see your take!

First I will say that the game is looking really amazing! 

But I am also super sorry to say that I don't like this game very much. The gameplay idea is okay, but the ambition seem to be much too high, and the gameplay elements feels a bit unfinished. I was sadly never able to build the light rod, because there is a bug that meant some times when I press the tab key the game freezes, and after having restarted the game a couple of times I stopped playing.

When this is said, I can see that there is put a lot of time and love into this game, and I totally respect that. But for a jam game I would have liked to see something more simple and perhaps more focused around the jam theme. You clearly have talent and I am sure you can make amazing games, and I hope you will do it. But I believe you can push you creativity more then you have done in this game. Or perhaps I just did not got to where the magic happens.

Again, I am sorry, and I am hoping that I was not too rough on you.

 I hope you the best.

Developer(+1)

Don’t apologize, you are 100% spot on. The idea was way too big for the game jam. This was my first game jam and I guess I got carried away and  other areas suffered the consequences like the bug you encountered. I honestly appreciate your feedback and will definitely have those in consideration for future game jams. Thanks again for your feedback and for playing. Wish you the best too.

This game has best 3D scale game theme I have played in this jam so far, perfect design of mechanics, somehow I can't help myself start wondering how the mechanic was coded in this game right now.  Love that.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing the game and your comment!

Really impressive how much content you managed to make for a game in this short of a time limit. Great job! Cool game!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Qute a big scope for such short time. Well done!

Developer

Yeah It kinda got out of my hands and couldn't do everything I wanted but I'm happy with how it turned out. Thanks for playing!

Game was a bit laggy, and fov seems wrong... But good job for such a short time!

Developer(+1)

Yeah, lots of optimization needs to be done, thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Just casually make an open world for a game jam why don't ya! Super impressive that you can get something that looks this good in this short a time.

I did have some trouble with the tab menu floating too high for me to x out of it, but i think that might've just been the game getting confused because i tabbed out to get to your game page lol

Developer

Thanks for playing it!

fun! I think instructions would have helped, I didn't see anything explaining how I was able to do anything so took awhile to figure out

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing. I agree with you, I would've liked to add some tutorial that at the start but didn't had the time. But if you open the Gadget (Tab Button) there is a section with objectives and another one for controls. Hope that helps!
