Cool take on the theme! Graphics were great and the music was actually incredible :D... A couple things I noticed, try to make your sprites at the same resolution, the pixels on the player were about half the size of the rest of the game, a tad distracting - took me 6 years to learn this lol... And finally I did have something else but I can't remember it XD so it obviously wasn't too bad... Anyway fantastic work!

Developer(+1)

hmm i never thought about it. You do have a good point though. Thanks for playing the input!

Submitted(+1)

nice pixelart! the game was really fun and cool! good job!

it'll be nice if you check our game too (:

Lovely game, felt like a wildlife photographer! Lovely music too but sadly it didn't loop. As someone said before the map icon was a bit random but I assume you had it in mind just ran out of time. Good job and enjoy the jam!

Developer

Yes! I already got a nice UI build in Unity. I will wait for the voting to end. I might do something similar in the future

Submitted(+1)

Good to know you are set for post jam! Would love to see something like this again :D

A nice relaxing game.  It was fun hunting down all of the photo ops.

The map and blue thing on the screen were somewhat baffling.

Submitted(+1)

Well that was soothing! I though the UI could have be improved, other than that I enjoyed this experience! Good job!

Submitted(+1)

Great work! This game was really calming to play through and the music was amazing! Keep up the good work :) 

Would appreciate it if you could check my game out and give it a rating <3

Great game! Very relaxing. The art was not the best, but the music makes up for it. The only bad thing i can say about this game is that the music doesnt loop around! It was so relaxing until the music stopped. I really enjoyed this game! 
Thanks for checking out our game and hope you enjoyed my review!

Submitted(+1)

The music is amazing. It had some bugs though on the counter.

Check out my game when you can and tell me your opinion :D

I like the artwork done for the game and enjoyed how relaxed it made me feel.

I'd appreciate if you played my game :)

Submitted(+1)

Loved the idea!!

It is very easy to continue playing forever!! Hope you continue the development!!

ps.: It was a tamandua in there? (just loved)

Developer(+1)

for sure i continue to get better. Make sure check out ny other games as well. Lol i didn't intend to make a taturatula.

I wanted to say the game was relaxing but the music totally ruined the mood, i think it is to intense for the game idea. Besides that it was a really good experience to play, i think you have really good level design and environment creation skills. Keep up the good work. 


Feel free to check out my game, it will mean a lot to me

Its very relaxing, just a few bug, Camera noise plays multiple times after taking a picture,  Music stops if you enter a different area and come back, or the song ends. Also I'm not sure if its just me but I could only find 6 animals and still was able to reach the ending with having them all.

Developer

I did intent to have the camera noise come up after multiple time, but if I might consider having it once. Yea for sure there are 7 animals Jaguar, Ant Eater, Fox, Deer, Ram, Bat, Boar. I forgot loop main music simple fix

Submitted(+1)

it was a nice relaxing experience... my only real complaint... the music stopped (either because I took too long... or went to 1 of the 2 places that had other sounds... I don't know)

Developer

Yea I forgot to loop it at the last minute. I am glad that you played the game all the way though Thanks

Submitted

Great game, love the music! Also small thing, totally not gamebreaking or anything but the camera goes above everything except for these bushes :)

Developer(+1)

Lol good catch. I didn't even noticed that. Simple fix. Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Such a peaceful game. I enjoyed seeing all the animals and felt rather rewarded after hiking for so long to find such majestic landscapes and scenery. 

Submitted(+1)

I love the music and this game its so relaxing, good work

Submitted(+1)

Stunning music for the game! Definitely my favorite part. I enjoyed the bush wiggles too. I was hoping at first if I stuck around long enough an animal would appear to take a picture of. 

Submitted(+1)

Lovely relaxing game. I would say that the premise is enjoyable and really helped me relax and release a bit. I would say that there are some technical issues that could be fixed. Also the UI is in a pretty annoying area and distract from the feels of the game. Maybe you could include counters in the top right with pictures instead of words in the future.

Developer

Maybe I could just have one UI icon on the top and have a drop down appear showing the elements. Good point

Submitted(+1)

This game was a relaxing experience! I played it all the way to the end and there are a few points I want to bring up as constructive critism: 

1) the hitboxes need to be cleaned up the rocks and the trees were too big compared to the sprite

2) once I left the cave area the overworld music never came back on, which was a bummer because it was a banger.


Good work!
