Thanks for the very detailed feedback!
It is supposed to be a first try at an educational game in a Jam, so I’m going to take most of your feedback as a win. (This should be a lot more fun to learn about Greek mythology than to go back to school haha)
I sure had a lot of research to do about the subject to make this game, so I totally understand not being able to complete it without a good background in Greek mythology.
My thinking is : you learn about a subject by getting better at a game, by trial and error.
I wanted to implement a “sandbox” mode tho, where you just play around without a timer and counter, to discover all the possibilities without pressure, but no time unfortunately.
A family tree that gets drawn with the gods you already unlocked was also an idea, but that would have taken even more time :(
I really appreciate the BGM being acknowledged, since the past jams I was disappointed about the time dedicated to sound design, so wanted to try and actually make something interesting this time with sound design, which I had a lot of fun with !
Thanks for playing and sharing your thoughts !
