I updated my Android SDK-s, added the latest one and included more CPU architectures in the build this time, the new .apk is up, if it still doesn't work I can't do much about it
Ah, that's probably because of updates for Android, I can recompile it now that I have the license for mobile again, it's hardly worth it for this gamejam prototype, but it'll be good practice and setup for Android, so I'll do it after I slept
I made this for a gamejam and never bothered to fix the balance, I want to play a cultivation game, I don't want to make one ;-; because if I make one, then I know how it works.
I didn't really get what the point of being a dice was, although the interpretation of the dots being eyes was interesting, I noticed that the faces do change when dodging at least.
The gameplay... was... gameplay? and then it was over.
The pixel sizes were all over the place... although we are a bit guilty of this too...
Yeah, I agree, faster movement would definitely help the game... in my defense, I did not code that part. (the enemy's turn at least... I'm a little responsible for the movement speed) Unfortunately the HTML5 export decided to fail on us last second so we decided to just keep it download only.
It was very pleasant to play, although on the first level where the other color was introduced, due to it being red I didn't even consider it being a color that could be used to draw, because red denoted a closed exit before that. The movement speed is holding back the enjoyment a little bit too, but the lo-fi makes up for it, you can't get mad at a game that has lo-fi music.
Creativity... well... we did the same concept of the dice/square based puzzle game... although our dice has literal faces and also holds items, the numbers didn't seem to add anything in these levels, but maybe in harder levels it would take a lot of planning to always choose the highest number while also optimizing the route.
10/10 presentation, although it's an interesting choice to have it 45° perspective but controlled by the arrow keys... however it never actually impacted my gameplay, which I find interesting.
My enjoyment was immediately kneecapped by the very repetitive music, floaty controls, unreliable physics and convoluted game rules. Once I couldn't bear listening to the music I quit.
The rules probably took some creativity to come up with, but complexity a good game does not make.
The menu and sprites that are there look nice and clean, but what isn't there, is most of it...
My enjoyment was limited a little bit by not being able to skip dialogue and the fight section being a little bit monotone and pretty hard, but at the very least it restarted at the start of the fight instead of having to do the whole intro.
It is a pretty creative interpretation that tells a story, however the game mechanics that tell the story are a bit too bland and heavily Undertale inspired.
The visuals and mechanics work prefectly, if I had a minor gripe it's that some buttons need to be clicked with the mouse, so it can't all be played just on keyboard.
The theme has been properly adhered to, I instantly felt overwhelmed... but also unfortunately confused and I could not figure out how to play the game.
We're very glad you like it! There were many things that didn't make the cut, like bullet time, more weapons... a spoon that shoots smaller spoons that explode into spoons, but I'm happy that people enjoy it anyways. The menu also got cut along with the volume sliders...
I would have been up to add anything you suggested and time wasn't really that much of an issue either... It's a shame we forgot about the bear for example...
I really like this game, even though I don't see in what way it would be overloading on the senses. What I can say about the game itself is that it seems to suffer from lack of direction and I have 0 idea what I should be doing with the things I collected or where to go.
I have a game with a similar mechanics by the way that I have been working on for over a year now and I hope you don't mind if I take some inspiration ;)
Just tried out the demo running the server and 2 clients on the same PC and both clients using the same mic, still worked so I bought it.
