Super cool that you guys are a big team. Did you struggle at all with everyone working together at once? I know we did. This feels really polished for a jam game. Great job!
Thanks! Yeah we burned a lot of time on setting up the scaling mechanic and ran out of time to make it easier for the player to place objects and actually traverse them. We really appreciate the feedback!
Oh perfect! Disregard the comment on your game regarding the how to get through the title screen. You replied faster than I thought you would haha. Glad you were able to get it going!
Love the sponge idea! It's a killer implementation of the theme because it explains why the object would get bigger and smaller rather than it just "magically" happening (like our game lol). I think this all very well executed from the animation to the art and color pallet. Well done. Hopefully you can get our game working (press Enter on the title screen - I'll add this to the description in case someone else has issues with the colors like you did).
Weird. Not sure why the colors are like that but it's hiding black text that says "Press Enter". So just hit the Enter key to start. I suspect the colors will still be messed up but you should be able to play! Sorry it's working weird for you.
Note to the player: We did not finish the game. There is no proper gameplay loop, so it's more of a sandbox. The general goal is the get the front loader on top of the building to get to the trophy (without abusing the jump mechanic).
Our team (like I'd imagine most teams) also struggled with work/life getting in the way, spending too much time on the central mechanic and also didn't finish. You were at least nice enough to put a message to the player in the game! We probably should have done that. As you said, you're proud and you should be. I really like the monochromatic color scheme and the artwork. Excellent work.
Wow, you managed to make several games and we couldn't even make one. This is really great, super funny and very creative despite the narrator suggesting otherwise.
Great artwork and animations. Also really cool implementation of the theme. Having recently come off a binge of Overcooked and Moving Out, this had me excited.
Fun concept. Our team considered going the climbing route but thought the mechanic would be pretty hard to implement. Love the art too. The robot voice at the end of the level also reminds me of Superhot.
Really captivating artwork and the music is great. These types of games are fun. It must be really cool coding up one of these systems and watching it start to take off.
The art style is really cool. I love the honeycomb background. It's the subtle attention to detail stuff like that that can really make a game's visuals pop. The UI transitions are also really smooth and professional looking. The whole game has a cohesive whimsical and fun vibe. Impressive amount of work for a game jam.
Interesting implementation of the theme, I like it. I also really like the transition effect you've got when the ship scales up and down. It's subtle but it sells the effect. Artwork in general is cool. I hope the crew on that ship doesn't get motion sick!
Thank you! We didn't end up having time to implement much of a gameplay loop. It's kind of just a sandbox at the moment. We'll put a note in the description.
