That is such an awesome game! I love the arcade inspiration and feel, feels like something you would play or see on an older arcade box! great work!

Super cool! I love this concept and the game play feels very polished and smooth! Took me a few tries to really find a rhythm but after that it was super fun to play. Awesome job!

This is a super cool game, I love the concept though it was a little hard to control the ball of fluff a bit but the controls where rather responsive, I love how you played into the chaos additional theme. My big critique would be to add some visual elements when doing things, like I wasn’t sure when I got into plane mode if I was hitting things right away. small visual queues would help. Great submission, would love to see more updates from this!

This was really fun! Started on Level one in order to get the feel, I love the games mechanics, Tried level four and got destroyed pretty quick! Overall, This was a super fun game to play def one of my favorites so far!

I really enjoyed this! it took a minute to figure out the movement but I love the 2.5D game design and was super fun trying to break everything in the house! Great game!

Thanks! Glade you enjoyed it thanks so much for playing :)

This was a very well polished game! I love the whole art style and simple game play, took me a while to find everything but was laughing at the audio and sound effects clicking around. Beautifully made across the board. Only major issue i had was i couldnt click on one of the mice, because it was just far enough behind unless i pixel clicked it but that might be a skill issue on my end.

Great submission!

I really like this game, the music fits the graphics and the small lore and story written into it was pretty awesome. Overall a very chill experience, i would suggest making a toggle for the motion blur as it did make me feel a bit sick playing especially during hide and seek. Great submission!

This was a pretty fun little game, the controls where pretty hard to understand at first, i was clicking and trying to drag items when it was more click, select, click. The audio was great and i started to enjoy trying to speed run it. Overall, some tweaks to the UI or a tutorial overview would of helped with some of the confusion. Great entry!

This was a pretty interesting game, I didn’t quite understand the goal of the game, there was no clear direction on where to go or what i was suppose to do. the colors where a bit too bright it was hard to see. Overall if there was some kind of indicator or at least a beginning level pop up to let us know what we are doing, that would improve this by a lot, great work

This link should work :)

Well, i just spent 3 hours enjoying this! Love the upgrade system and got really addicted to this, can see it as a great mobile game

Keep it up!

I really enjoyed playing this! Really does give me a chill mirrors edge vibe,the wall run was slightly janky in places but i found myself using grappling hook more.

VERY impressed with everything!

Send me a DM on Discord [@thesuperpanda] with your itch.io public link and i can accept the late submission :)

sent you a friend request. :)

Sorry for a late response, just now getting home.

What is your Discord? I can DM you a late submission link

Hey! Please make sure during the rating period for the jam,the game is set to free otherwise it wont be rated or judged

Thanks

loved the music and the idea was super interesting to me! the level was super hard as I found myself dying to quickly recharge rather than going to the charging station just felt super slow, maybe by placing a charging station more in the map to encourage the player to go further then the radiation line. Which would make a better balance to the game.

for only being a few levels this was really well made, had issues on level 3 but finally figured it out. I love the style and direction of the game goes in and works really well as a puzzle game, can see this as a super successful mobile or browser game with more levels. I would of included some kind of music but that is more of a nitpick. playability was great and looks very polished. Great work

This was a pretty unique game! I really enjoyed for what was here, The controls where very unintuitive. Found myself using my entire desk space to move my mouse enough to move the horse arm, some things I would change to help with playability is upping the mouse sensitivity or at least an option to up it, The rotation was a bit hard as there just wasn’t enough rotation, which being a horse is understandable. I found myself trying to use WASD to move the horse arm more then the mouse because that felt more natural. and it was a little annoying to constantly use shift to move up and down

overall for only a week its super impressive and really enjoyed it! i really love the art style and the music used was calming. your use of sound effects really added to the ambience of the office.

as long as no additional content is added or affect the current gameplay, that is perfectly fine.

Updated for better Accessibility

If you have any other questions regarding the JAM please feel free to join the discord and ask questions, We want this to be a very understanding and helpful community where anyone can get help, be it brand new to game development or a seasoned pro. 

The game itself is pretty fun and relaxed, though from a player perspective I was unsure what the story or main objective of the game was, I spent some time running around, collected keys and read the prompts which where pretty cool, but I didn't quite understand the story it was trying to tell. I wasn't quite sure where the Fall/Autumn theme played into it, maybe like having to explore why fall/autumn hasn't come yet or is currently in the process and you the player are helping it along?  That would be my only really big critique, the character controls are smooth, the music is nice, and the game play feels varied. I hope you continue to update the game, can't wait to see what it becomes! 

this was quite a fun and challenging game! Really love the whole inverted levels an The level design looks great.  wish my reflexes where better lmao. Overall you did an amazing job in the short time span, and would love to see more levels made for the game! Great job :)

I absolutely love playing this, the mechanics, music and art direction are really well planned and it feels fun to play. there are only a few things that if you continue to update the game I would think make this great, first an option to window mode the game or at least one or two aspect ratio options. (I have an ultra wide monitor so a lot of the UI/UX and the bottom of the game  where cut off. maybe having some kind of indicator when a friend is popped up on the map. the other than that, you guys did an amazing job with just the 7 days, I really hope to see updates!

This is a really great start to the game, the Audio along with the visual style and graphics where really good, there could be some things to make the UI look a bit better, maybe some rounded edges or even a better color then the standard Unity button. Overall the game was pretty interesting to play, The END Tutorial button didn't work until the game over screen and it was pretty confusing on how you stopped the birds during the tutorial as it didn't explain it. When the game over screen came up I wasn't able to push Play again and had to close out of the game in order to restart it which isn't Ideal. Overall for a game that you made solo for the first time This is a REALLY good start.

a few things I would look at updating and or changing at the end of the jam is 
- Updates to the UI to allow the "End Tutorial Button" to work
- Add an option for windowed mode, as some elements when full screened where at the edge of the screen and i was unable to interact with them well (I.E The volume slider on the menu screen) 

- Updating the tutorial so that it explains how to stop the birds then just telling me i have to stop them. As well as making it so in the tutorial there is no fail state, just explain to the player that when birds finish attacking the crop that it results in game over so the player has a chance to learn the game.

You have an amazing start to the game, those few changes and I feel this could be a great add to your portfolio! 

I really enjoyed this, its super interesting seeing winter in summer. took me a few tries to understand how the game works, Great work overall on the game, only major feedback would be to maybe add a bit more narrative or some kind of text or hint that you are on the correct path after a while. but overall this was a pretty cool game to sit and play. Keep up the great work! 

this was a pretty chill game! I love me some endless runners.. Or tubers? xD The only issue for me with it is the lack of audio. if you included some background music and maybe some atmospherics (Like a snake hiss or the water moving) then I feel you got a pretty solid game.  I really like the art style of the game! 

This was a super fun one. I loved the idea of crashing a party by throwing coconuts as the party goes! got up to about 1400 on the points counter! Great entry. Though, Some feedback that i feel can really improve on it is that the music was rather loud in - game without an option to turn it out, that was the only really big thing for me, the art and and game play was really fun and chill. maybe a little bit of a wider field of view or the ability to zoom out a tiny bit

Great entry! and great work on the game, I hope to see updates after the voting period ends! 

This was a really fun game. A couple of things i feel you could use to improve on it, is there is a lack of audio, other than the shooting and the spawns attack sound, which both where pretty loud and no options to turn them down in game. I would look at balancing audio as well as adding some kind of backing track, even at a lower volume to keep the player in the mind set of the game and keep the vibe and mood going. 

The mechanics where really fun, though i did get turned around a couple of times playing as i started shooting the opposite direction of where my player was but once i got around that it was really fun to see how well I could do. made it to Wave 4 and started to get the upgrades. which did cost quite a bit for what was gathered at each round, some balancing of the prices vs money drop from the enemies will def help it. 

Overall! This was a pretty solid first game jam entry and I can see this getting some awesome updates and being a cool game to see grow! Great work on it. taking that little bit of feedback to a second iteration I think you would have a pretty awesome game to show case! 

This was pretty fun and chill to play. The music was a bit loud but was really catchy! 
I really like your take on the Limited Space additional theme, was ready to run over everyone for a spot haha! Keep up the great work :) 

I REALLY enjoyed this game. The puzzles where fun and a bit challenging. def one of the games I'd come back to just to chill and play. Great work. 

The music and art where really well done, found myself jamming to the menu screen for a short bit.

There is no Age requirements for this jam.  look forward to your submission

thats weird! Will fix that now, thanks for pointing it out!

Hey Code Cove! You still have 2 day (June 10th) before the jam starts. using a  Mac is alright, as long as you make your game either Web Browser friendly or a playable .EXE file :) 

 if you would like some help with the coding or even some tips or help with art and design. feel free to join our discord server ! I look forward to your submission :)
