I enjoyed it. I had thought about doing a Biathlon game as well but I had no ideas.
Best bits: The game is a minimalistic interpretation of a sports title. The idea to minimise the use of a graphical interface is innovative and reminiscent of the creativity of early computer games to convey things in a non-visual way. I liked the country-based stats to add a bit of a Winter Games theme.
Ideas: The biathlon is an endurance challenge that involves a long stretch of action. Finding ways to keep the gameplay unpredictable and varied can keep the player interested and motivated to complete the gameplay loop. Maybe some QTEs during the skiing could keep players on their toes!
Thanks for submitting the game to the jam!
Very cute game! The shooting part was very funny, and the minimalist skiing sections made me laugh. I wish there were a Japan team 😉
I could've added Japan, Austria, Belarus, Ukraine, Finland, etc. but it would've been hard to define stats to each one of them without risking duplicates.
Thanks for the review!
Hi! I'm wondering how I can open this game on mac, I would really love to check it out. Thanks!
I don't know if it works on Mac. Maybe try opening the .html file in your browser?
Oh it works in browser :D
Unfortunately I don't think I can see the full game in browser. I like the starting menu and the amount of options though!
Great game. I really like the combo of skiing and shooting, and how the country you picked changed your speed, accuracy etc. I played it a couple of times and the best timei could get was 123.245 seconds.
Great game. Keep it up♥
The background and assets do not load for me
Did you unzip the folder before opening index.html?
Yes, most definitely. Everything works except the background
I think I know what you mean. The background is actually a random image for the logo. It doesn't appear in-game.
