are the download games a meta wtf

wait, there's a goal? you're meant to do something? "recipe"? "element" wtf is any of this? I can drop letters into the pot but it doesnt do anything, and I can't seemingly restart it?

????

okay, so there's near-invisible purple hue that's meant to not be seen as background element, okay. Only noticed that after dying randomly before the cave section

what the hell, how did you even think of this? the story, the characters, the art????

5/5 in all areas, although not really "build to scale", more like "lets scale the building", this is the next cruelty squad

the art style is incredible, release this in steam or I will forget about it and never see this artstyle ever again, and that will be sad

also how is this "built to scale?" it has a dragon and a scale in it, none of it matters for gameplay or even story though

losing everything when I try to balance it sucks... can you even beat the game like that?

Wished there were more bullets and they were slower, so its less about reactions and more about pattern recognition and avoiding skill. Also hitboxes are huge, annoying to avoid small missile as small ship when the missile start airbursting on the random rectangle around my ship and dealing damage

It feels like the speed should be inverted, the big ship should have faster speed to offset its bigger hitbox, and small ship should move slowly to offset its smaller hitbox

That and every powerup seemingly helping small shit more than big ship, and the mechanic of becoming a bigger ship is something I want to avoid instead of interact with

Can't get past tutorial, says "protect yourself from both", but hitting wall with shield or without doesn't increment anything.

yeah, no.

yeah, no.

Log: Softlocked myself by not buying any funds factories. 

Log: I restarted the page, bought funds factories, what are the other things even for?

Log: Got 1 million with just funds, tried to buy rocket but had no space, found out you can upgrade them...

damn. This is such a cool idea. If you had a proper tutorial on it or something, it would be a great colony simulator. Also let me place buildings with mouse 1.

movement speed is way too slow when small. style over substance is often misquoted to mean style without substance, but here's a great example of it's original meaning

what is any of this? what are you supposed to do? you learned to make a 3d world I guess, but calling this a game is wildly incorrect.

what's the game loop? what's the win condition, lose condition? what?

Aweseom concept

This game has promise. But it has so overbearing issues it's nearly impossible to give positive feedback on. Instead, I will write the problems and solutions that you really need.

Problems:

It's impossible to know what, for example, "growth" means when half of the time it's called weekly growth, the other time it's called just growth. Is weekly growth different from normal growth? Is normal growth daily? No idea. I still have no concrete proof of when growth activates, but hey, at least you wrote it differently every time it's mentioned!
Too many things just say "greatly improves" or +1 (random word which is not defined anywhere) I have no idea what ANYTHING does, because it seems like neither do you.
It's not same as having no descriptions. It's like half of your descriptions actively mislead or straight-up lie.

Solutions:

Prevent crashes on every unintended behaviour by limiting player choice until you are absolutely sure the player can do it without crashing.  Do not let me move the character before the map is loaded, so it won't crash. Do not let me move my units into Armor slots so it won't crash. Sometimes it feels like I have more options to crash the game in a specific menu than ways to close it normally. 

Write code that renders the armour and magic stats' text dynamically based on their effects instead of writing in manually for every new item like a madman and then you have a playable demo.
For example, do not write "item increases magic greatly" but instead, have the magic buff spell be "item increases magic by variable%". Now you only need to change the variable in code, instead of having to manually write everything and mess it up.

Even better if instead of "magic" resistance it's just a variable name itself, so it'd be: "itemtypevariable effectvariable typevariable valuevariable"
so you can get stuff like: "Hat increases magic by 10" or "Leggings give 1 random spell"

It's very easy to code, saves time, and most importantly makes it possible to understand what the hell anything in the game does.

Just stay in middle and you can never lose, because you always have time to fall to left or right most corners.

Its basically just a lottery if you survive a block or not.
