Skale's hoard will be save with me! As soon as I figure out how to steal it all! But seriously, the game was really fun to play! This would make a really good mobile game, where you need to keep the treasure out of the lava!
Thank you. Touchscreen support is actually something we considered and will be added if we release an update.
I love the art style and it's a creative idea for fitting the theme! I wish there were more choices for constructing the platform like hanging chains, maybe.
Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad you liked our interpretation of the theme.
My rekord is 52... and I realy tried... What am I doing wrong? 😭
There are some stone pillars sticking out of the lava you can build onto. They're a bit hard to see. Also, beware of the stones, they are very heavy so they can really tip over the whole construction if not placed above a solid foundation. Try to be resourceful, as if the gold goes below Skale's greed the game is over, so don't spend all the gold you have. Kepp an eye out for the greed (the second number).
Well executed, I like the idea, and the art is cute, but the gameplay feels like it is missing something. There isn't enough meaningful decision-making for the player, and not nearly enough happens as a result of their choices. Maybe you could add pegs or something like those arcade coin machines and allow the player to place objects to route the coins to the proper place or something? I'm sure you have better ideas, but something of that nature where the player feels like they are making an impact and things are happening due to their choices.
Either way, this is still a great jam submission. Excellent work!
Thank you very much for the feedback. We have plans of balancing some thing out. I'll keep in mind trying to keep the player more involved throughout.
The coins are so beautiful :D! I loved gathering up a large pile of them.
Great concept! Also the best tutorial i have seen so far this gamejam! good job!
Great game ! I like the concept ! And everything is well explained. Keep up the good work :)
Pretty fun! Love the artstyle also.
This game is adorable! It's simple but not monotonous. The artstyle is eye-pleasing and Skale is the cutest! ♥ Makes you want to play more than once. Good job!
WOW! Really well made a such a great level of polish too!
Simple mechanics but its really quite challenging, really cool idea!
I love how simple the game's mechanics are. That made the game pretty fun to play!
Also, please find a better lair next time, Skale. Lava and gold do not mix.
I want to save all the gold! Super fun!
Definitely hooking and very cute. Well done!
