this is for sure my favorite submission this far! It's fun, the art is great and the idea is really nice and the sounds are perfect, great game!
Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me.
Really liking the retro feel. Well done!
What a good feeling. The gameplay here is immaculate
pretty cool game and nice concept! I had fun playing it, you also have really nice art in the game, also Never seen a lot of people use Pico-8
fun retro feel
Wow, that really cool game! Would you like to update it someday? I would like to play more because of enjoyment. Good Job!
Aww, thanks! Yeah, I’ve been thinking about updating this game while keeping the jam version (1.0) available for download. Hope that doesn’t go against the spirit of the game jam. Thanks again!
I kept on droping cows, I feel like they are going to sue me for the injuries that they seffered. Love the game!
Very well made. Bonus for being a pico game. Not that many Pico-8 devs in this jam. Bravo
A great little game. Love the art style, being able to recover and pick the cow back up was a great choice. All in all I really enjoyed this. Good work!
Really fun game, love the graphics, and the whole idea of bringing back cows to the mothership:P
Such a fun game. Nice take on the theme
This is fun and absolutely adorable!
I like the retro style, the mechanic it's fun, I LOVED
Really good implementation of the theme, and also cool retro style!
Thanks so much!
Really challenging and fun, game feels polished and audio is great! The visuals are really awesome too, great work! :P
Absolute banger! Could use a little bit more sound but other than that, a masterpiece
Absolute love this game, the visual, procedural generation, sound effects all add up to an amazing experience. Can you explain how you did the procedural beaming up effect?? I'm super curious (please don't tell me it's exclusive to Pico-8)
Short answer: trig functions. I’ll write a devlog post and publish the code in a few days. Thanks for the lovely review. Long live the Pico-8!
The presentation and visual sauce of this game is absolutely crazy, Pico-8 goes HARD in the right hands. Serious props to you, the procedural zap effects and audio add such a cool flair and ohmywordthisgameissogood
Aww, thanks so much for this wonderful review!
The art style and presentation is superb! very excellent execution of what you're trying to accomplish
Simple, but very well polished. Who knew that cows could fall on their feet, even from deeper space (I was kinda hoping it would splatter when it fell from that high, hehe).
An idea for the itch.io page: maybe have (at least) the first screenshot not animated, as it was a bit distracting from the game, with it being almost the same size and all.
