Thanks for checking out the game :)

thanks for taking the time to check out the game and glad you liked it.

thanks for checking out the game!

The movements are completely random (you just got unlucky a few times it seems like).

for the glitch it started as that and then I left it in the game because I was afraid the game would be too hard to beat without it. But it seems like the game is beatable without cheating so maybe I should correct it.

anyway thanks for playing :)

thanks for checking out the game.

Lol yea there’s a way to “cheat”. Honestly it is very hard to beat the last level without doing that so I am not sure I really consider it cheating, it’s more a feature at this point :)

i like the idea of different boards with specific solutions, it would help with the issue you mentioned of just jumping around waiting for an opening.

Thanks for playing the game, glad you liked it :)

Thank you, I fixed the glitch with the latest update.

hey, thanks for the feedback.

Yea currently there is no real AI, the game just moves pieces randomly. I could probably improve the game there and make it more challenging (not like playing against stockfish but something a bit more sophisticated than just moving random pieces until you can attack the player).

anyway thanks for checking it out :)

hey, thanks for the feedback.

For the bug,  do you mean that pieces stay on the small board?

oh I see. That explains why I still get downloads, I guess some people just ignore the warning.

Thank you

Hi!

So I was made aware about 48 hours ago that my game page was quarantined by itch (I had the page password protected for a bit while I was testing the game so I think that’s what did it…)

Anyway I contacted their support team two days ago but in the mean time I noticed that I still get a few downloads here and there…does that mean the page is not quarantined anymore?

The page in question: https://esiotek.itch.io/gambelo

and my ticket number if needed: 253232

I can’t see myself if the game is still quarantined or not so the all situation is a bit confusing to me…

aw I missed it, but thanks for trying out the game

It's a cool idea, with some polish it could really be something fun. The UI is a bit awkward and in the way (not sure if it's my resolution but it was a bit in the middle of the screen) and the controls feel a bit weird, but yea, cool concept other ways with lots of potential :)

The music and the art style is really cool. A tutorial on how to play would help tho, I was a bit confused on how the game worked for a while

Fun little tower defense game. It would need a bit more sound (like effects and music) but yea, I had a good time with it

oh I see. That’s a shame, the idea of the jam was really cool.

I see that there is suppose to be 3 submissions to the jam but I can only see mine…is it a glitch?

Thanks! Yea I ended up having less time than I thought to put into this, that’s why it’s so short but glad you enjoyed it :)

Thanks for taking the time to try it out.

Like others said the gameplay is a bit unclear at the beginning. I probably could have spent a little more time trying to make it more accessible :)

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed the game :)

thanks for playing the game.

The breaker thing is to lock doors and protect the crew members and yourself.

So the green breaker locks all the green rooms, the orange one locks the orange rooms etc…

But yea I agree it could be explained better in the game

There's definitely something there. The graphics kinda reminds me of the early kings field games.

The controls are pretty rough tho. I think having a crosshair or something like that in the middle of the screen and adding mouse movements to look up and down would help a lot.

I touched the cube that turned all the eyes green but then I got stuck and  couldn't figure out what to do next.

It's a good start for a game. The atmosphere and graphics are there for sure. I would just work on the controls a little more.

I don't know if it is intentional, but the controls actually made me feel like I was on drugs....It's an interesting game for sure.

I like the shader you used but it's a shame the graphics are so dark. I understand it is for tension, but I think showing the environment a little more would help (I went in circles in the starting area for a while because I couldn't see the bridge). The music and voice acting are pretty good (I actually really enjoyed the music).

Very simple but actually pretty fun and intense. I only managed to get to level 2 but fun game overall.

Thanks. Yea if I had more time I would have made a better tutorial to explain the mechanics more clearly

The game looks nice, it's very short tho. 

Really cool looking game with a lot of personality. I love the two little characters. The controls are a bit finicky but other than that great game.

That was a cool game. I love the retro PSX graphics and the ambiance. Reminded me of the first half life game.

Only thing is maybe a mini map or something would help to navigate the station. It is very dark and confusing.

But other ways great game!

The audio effects are really good. I like the art style too and the twist at the end is pretty cool.

nice game :)

Cool game. It's simple but effective. Is the music original? I really like the guitar part that comes out with the shadow.

Good job :)

yes it is

thanks. The behavior of the monsters is random. 
If the player or a crew member is not next to them on their turn they will just go to a random room next to where they are.

glad you enjoyed the game :)

Wow this is a very polished game for something made in such a short time. The visuals are stunning and the music and atmosphere are just great. One of my favorite games in this jam for sure

Not really a game but it's still interesting. The atmosphere is pretty nice.

Great game. The art is really nice. The mechanics work well and feel really good. 

I like the concept, it's simple but it works pretty well.

The graphics are good too. Maybe a tutorial of some sort at the beginning would help (I had to go back to the game's page to figure out what I was suppose to do).

But yea, cool game!

It's a fun game overall. Classic top down shooter. The visuals and the music are nice.

The movements feel a bit "floaty", I think the game would work better if the character moved toward where they aim all the time.

But yea, fun game other than that :)

The game is very dark and in combination with the intense head bobbing it takes away from the overall experience.

I understand the darkness is for the atmosphere but if the player can't see where they are going or what they are supposed to do it doesn't really make for a fun experience...

I like the pixel art, it actually looks really good, but the game could really use some sound to build up the atmosphere more.

I got to a point where I had to action a lever under water and then I got stuck. I thought it would open the gate but it didn't and I was not too sure where to go next.

It's a good start for a game tho.
