[SUMMARY] π
Planet Earth vs Wild Planet is an interesting 2 player addition to the game jam.
[GAME DESIGN] π²
- The Good: Designing for two players is always a challenge, and this has been done well!
- The Bad: I just wih there'd been more mechanics or different levels. I think the idea has potential and has only been explored a bit.
- My Advice: Keep making games! I'm sure you learned a lot from this jam and the game design seems a bit suffocated from trying to finish the game on time. You'll get better at this!
[FUN] π€£
- The Good: Excellent use of particles and very nice movement feel. The funny faces also help :)
- The Bad: Bottlenecked by a lack of polish and depth on the game design side.
- My Advice: It's honestly very well made. Maybe a bit of screenshake could help?
[INNOVATION] π‘
- The Good: Very original concept.
- The Bad: Bottlenecked again by a general lack of depth. Wish you had more time to develop the idea further!
- My Advice: Portals are a bit overdone, especially the blue / orange color could look a bit derivative.
[THEME]π
- The Good: -
- The Bad: Not even mentioned in the game backstory!
- My Advice: Don't be afraid of the theme! It can be a very enriching experience to constrain yourself to an idea.
[GRAPHICS]π¨
- The Good: Consistent and well done.
- The Bad: The menus need a bit of love.
- My Advice: Menus can be started earlier! Don't rush to finish them on the last minutes, it'll be worth it! People notice them!
[AUDIO]π
- The Good: It has music!
- The Bad: Lacks sound effects.
- My Advice: Go with bfxt.net if you need quick sound effects!
[FINAL RATING] π₯
Overall, a good entry to the jam. The 2 player mechanic, the solid graphics and the nice particle effects give it a good score!
