this is true

I was so scared for a second, wondering what derrick's gonna think about the comment. then I saw the username lol

Comment below if u managed to beat the game! (with screenshot evidence?!??)

Woah good job!! (I can't even beat it sometimes lol)

Thanks! Did you get to the end?

so cool

This is a really cool game. Great concept as well. The main problem was that it was a bit confusing what the objective was, and what the numbers on the right side meant, I just always played something random and I got high marks, but following those numbers I got low marks. So I think it is supposed to be we play something different and chaotic, but we can just play anything random and we would be playing something different because there are a lot of permutations of 7 different notes. So it was just kinda confusing. But this game is very innovative and the audio is amazing, good job!

Would also appreciate it if you checked out our game, we still need a few more ratings, thanks!

This is a really cool idea, and quite innovative, it's quite good being your first game, good job on completing!

This concept could make a good game, but right now it lacks quite a few things. I would add an incentive for the playing, and make the threat more of a threat. Right now it's just tipping over due to what I presume is gravity? But it doesn't get harder and isn't challenging enough, it also isn't smooth but someone below already covered that. Maybe having multiple things to care about would be cool and it would be a game of coordination? And also having something to keep track of how well we are doing, maybe points or a timer, or a countdown so that we are rewarded when we hold it up for long enough. Another thing is that personally I don't think that it should be random, I think if it's just always tipping to one side and the player has to just keep on going against gravity to keep it balanced is good and challenging enough.

Right now I like how it's tipping to one side, instead of just being random, so there's a force going against the player, and the resistance is the enemy of the game, therefore already has some foundation. I think if you keep on working on it and polish it more it can become quite a fun game. Good job!

Oh yea and also if you make it so that there's no 'you win' and more of a high score game, maybe with increasing hardness it would be better. The controls are really smooth too.

This game was one of the most fun games I've played in the whole game jam. Really well done. The numbers were all balanced really well to maintain that level of chaos while not being too hard so I can always recover until it's too late, but it didn't feel like it was the game's fault and was just I wasn't fast enough. I think the main problem is the hitbox of the tree being very annoying, I think make it very small or just get rid of it entirely, also when putting down the bucket and sword it's obstructed by the character so it's hard to tell when it's placed down, as well as when placing down if there's already an object there it should move to the side otherwise it feels unfair. Other than that this is a really great game, kinda said it only has 12 ratings so far, it would be a pity if it doesn't make it to 20.

Would also appreciate it if you played ours, thanks!

https://jickamangah.itch.io/whack-a-lotta-moles Here's mine. ik your stream ended but would still appreciate it if you played ours, it still needs 4 ratings. It's Whac-A-Mole but with a chaotic twist.

Thanks!

oh whoops I forgot to save rating

Cool game! It was kinda hard to play but it got easier once I got used to the movement. The visuals look very good too. Good job!

Would appreciate it if you played our game too, thanks!

If you have the time please play our game too, we still need 5 more ratings. Thanks! (unless u already did and just didn't comment so idk)

Thanks for playing! We thought that not having the letters be there would make it less visually obstructing and also more chaotic as you lose your place on the keyboard. But also the hammer goes to when you click so you can kinda navigate from there. Glad it was chaotic though :)

Cool game! great atmosphere. The movement was smooth and quite fun to play as well. It just felt a little slow to me and not so chaotic. The little circles floating around was satisfying though. Nice game!

Would also appreciate it if you played and rated ours! We still need 5 more right now.

https://jickamangah.itch.io/whack-a-lotta-moles Our windows one doesn't work, but the WebGL works fine so you can play that. Thanks!

https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-6/rate/1177904 Here is mine. I'm on a mac so I can't play yours but I'll send it to a teammate who has windows.

This game felt good to play. It was quite chaotic, not only the gameplay but the atmosphere with the art and sounds as well, good job! Maybe I'm just bad but a problem for me was that I just keep on dying too fast, and the shields were kinda annoying, so I would make it easier to play. Cool game!

Would appreciate it if you played our game too, thanks!

I like the story aspect of this game. But there were still many problems with it that made it hard to play well. First, there's the character movement which was quite janky and slow, as well as the hitboxes, so that made the platformer part a little harder to play. Then the mechanic of talking to people didn't quite make sense since the words didn't fit together so the replies don't make any sense either, although they do seem to serve a bigger story which I like, but the gameplay just doesn't fit. The dialogue was also too slow with the letters coming out one by one, but the sounds were cool. I like the platformer aspect and the talking aspect and how they work together, but I think just executed not that well so with polishing it would be able to tell the story you want to tell better. But I do think this is a pretty cool game that just needs some working on.

Would also appreciate it if you played our game, thanks!

Cool game. The art looks really nice, and the butterfly looks cool flying around too, but that also makes it harder and more drifty to control. It also wasn't super chaotic. But all the different mechanics of the pressure plates and bouncy pads were cool and satisfying, wasn't much of a challenge though.

Would appreciate it if you played our game too.

oh i see, i forgot it was the same person. I saw the video and your game looks cool but idk if it's fair to rate from just the video.

This is pretty cool! the art style looks stunning.

Thanks! We decided to use the keyboard to add on to the chaos, although yes mouse would also be chaotic, and we were thinking about also being able to use the mouse, but when more and more come then people would just prefer to use the keyboard anyway, so mouse would be redundant.

Cool game! The easy controls made it smooth to play, but the lack of control we have over the vehicle made it harder to play, since it only went one direction. But this lack of control also made it more fun and 'chaotic'. But I think that the game is a little slow, since the coins scatter too much, and the enemies also just slow down the game and are too close too each other. 

Would appreciate it if you rate ours too! We still need a few more.

I'll rate your game can you rate mine too? thanks https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-6/rate/1177904

This was really fun and enjoyable to play. I love the 2d art style it works very well with the theme of the game, but the 3d later kinda changes the atmosphere, the sound effects of the pots breaking definitely added to the chaos though. I thought it was fun mainly for the reason of breaking stuff and getting points, and always getting excess amount of points than the one that is needed, though that's what probably is normal. I also like the leveling up of certain stats. I think what mainly restricts the gameplay though, is having not enough stuff and also not being able to reach many things, and that takes away from the chaotic nature that seems to be what you were going for. Nonetheless, it was super fun to play, just needs some polishing.

Would also appreciate it if you played our game!

this is webgl but you have to click into view game page to see it.
I'll play your game now too if it's on webgl or mac.

This is a really cool game. The rules are simple but enough to make it chaotic. The stakes are very obvious and there's too much to handle making it chaotic. It is really polished as well. One thing I would change is the switching bullets, since there are 3 bullets, one button to switch between 3 may be too slow, so maybe use the left hand to switch bullets on the keyboard, 1-2-3 maybe. The bullet on the gun may also be not clear enough since it's touching it, but that didn't seem to affect the gameplay. Other than that, great game, was fun to play.

Would appreciate it if you rated ours too, thanks!

Cool game! I found it a bit hard to control, I think using the mouse would've been more helpful instead of rotating. the movement was also super floaty which did indeed make it more chaotic since we had less control, but also makes it less fun in my opinion since it was out of my control. Fun game!

Would also appreciate it if you rated our game, thanks!

Cool game. The shooting seemed to be inconsistent and idk when I had ammo or not, so it was more of a running away game, but it definitely felt chaotic so with more polish it would be a really fun game. The sound effects with your voice were cool.

Would appreciate it if you checked out our game too, thanks!

Thanks for playing! I'm glad that you thought the progression was fine, it took a while to tweak it as we wanted it to be easy at first so that everyone can play but it gets harder so that it is still super chaotic for better players.

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed the game. 

Unfortunately I'm on a mac so I can't play your game :(
the game looks fun though.

Thanks!
