Really fun idea, zipping around and bashing into the cubes was a lot of fun, nice work!
Excellent, I really wanted the herding to be a fun mechanic. Glad you liked it, thank you!
Interesting concept and I loved the controls.
Something about them felt good. Enjoyed playing it!
That is great to hear! Gameplay feel is very important to me and with limited time it is always such a challenge. A fun one but a challenge still.
Such an interesting concept and take on the theme! Awesome visuals and sound effects. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much! I really want to develop this further.
You definetly should!!!
Very interesting hive building.
I'm assuming the modules being destroyed by the enemy means I lose the bonus, which makes it quite an interesting concept
Only complaint would be that the camera is zoomed in too much, and the enemy is already charging at me before they even become visible
There are definitely a bunch of things that need tuning and/or fixing with the systems that are already in place so I completely agree that the camera is one of them. But I'm so appreciative that you found the concept interesting since that was my goal! All the best!
I really like this game and would love to see more of it! There's so many interesting things you can do with the modules. Awesome entry!
That is so good to hear, I really wanted to try out this concept and combination of ideas! Thank you!
loved the feeling of a sheeperd with this lil white dots !
Take few time to understand that you cant go werever you want thoo
Great Job for the time constraint !
So glad you like it and thank you! Yes, time really ran out for me in regards to UX/UI + Player instructions so I wholeheartedly agree with you. But hey, nothing's stopping me from developing it further after the jam.
I really liked the concept, it allows for emergence forms of player character when game develops. I would have appreciated a text saying you have to herd white things at the start, I did not get it until read the itch description, but it's a jam game so no worries. It's fun, fits the theme and is solo developed so it's a great game!
Thank you very much for your feedback! Yes, there are several things I wish I would have had the time to make much clearer to the player in regards to UX/UI and gameplay instructions. I completely agree with your sentiment.
This is a really cool idea! I'd love to see this get developed further!
Thank you, perhaps I will!
Pretty cool game maybe make it so you cant just accidentally walk out of range?
Thank you! That's part of the inteded design but I could absolutely make it clearer and perhaps incorporate it better.
Pretty fun concept, but it's a bit too difficult with how fast (and from how far) the enemies attack. Zooming out the camera and maybe adding a score counter would be great! :)
Happy you like the concept and I sincerely appreciate the feedback!
