The idea for the game is good, but there are a few nuances that I think could improve its implementation:
1) you could make it so that elves interact with something, not by touching their collider, but by reaching a click point with the mouse, if the mouse clicked on something to interact with. Now elves can crash into something on the path and interact with that object.
2) I think it would be worth saving the elf that was selected after giving a command to him. Your game is similar to RTS, so this approach would be more player friendly. Right now, having the selection from the elf disappear after giving a command is confusing.
3) It is worth visually showing the selected elf for better player response.
4) It is worth using the same images for the same objects, so that visually it will be better understood what object should be forged. It's not critical here, there are only two objects: one curved and one straight. But if there are more of them, the player is likely to get confused.
Good luck! If you want - you can watch our game, we'd love to have you!
Great Job! It was fub!!!
Would be grateful if you also rated our game)
super cool concept , would love to see some sound effects and music. The only major complaint I have is that the collision boxes for the elves are a bit too big as they often get caught on invisible corners of objects.
I like the game's idea and how you control the elves to make weapons for the kids. Wait, weapons for kids? Guess this game's setting takes place in the medieval era or something.
I like the idea and music, but the elves are a bit difficult to control, maybe something that indicates what elf is selected would be great. Very nice submission!
