Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • I liked the beginning of this game a lot, and the gameplay loop has huge potential for quick and easy fun. Unfortunately there are some choices that really hold this game back and cause boredom to rise up. Since this game is complex in some ways, it requires more engagement to keep the simple loop engaging. You can do this with more lore/story on the maps or before the gameplay loop begins. The slime giving you 1-2 messages on the upcoming worlds is simply not enough. I found myself stuck at the snow map, and felt uninspired to figure out what to do because I had forgotten what the point of being there was. To make this game fantastic, fix the spelling errors, add more engaging world building, and give interesting things for the player to pursue that keep them on their toes.
  • Fun little loop, throws me back to the days of Flash games, remember playing one that was a dungeon that you needed to come back alive from it and then crystals would be permanent upgrades for the next journeys into the dungeon. Loved the extra touch of challenge like temperature in desert and snow areas.
  • A truly excellent game, the game-loop was fun and engaging, everything felt quick and smooth, it was easy to pick up and an overall fun experience. The grinding can be a bit excessive but if you have time to kill it's not terrible. The intro cutscene is also very polished. Boss fights well choreographed. This game impressed me a lot! Great job!

Perhaps there are fewer people playing the entire game.

I believe that giving up personal emotions is the key to becoming a fair judge.

You have a game loop gameplay that I admire, and you will definitely become a terrifying independent game producer and game competition champion killer in the future (at least in BAKIN).
