This is a neat little experience (barring of course the bug with buying buildings). I think having a more clear end goal as well as player guidance could go a long way in making the player's choices feel more impactful. Sound effect feedback could also be helpful as I did not realize a flood had happened when it first happened in my run. Beyond that, I really like the very compact feeling to the graphics overall and would love to see an expanded version of this game mechanics wise. Good job!

Really cool and solid game overall for this jam! The gameplay loop is well thought out and the audio sounds great overall. I would definitely love to see this expanded more. Great job!

I think this is a very cool take on the theme for sure, but the camera controls and awkward snapping makes me think that perhaps 3D was not the best format for this game. Also I didn't realize that the spacebar key actually sped up the flood because the key icon wasn't too readable. Other than that, I think if you continue polishing this game it could be a very neat puzzle game to spend some time in. Good job!

I like the concept of this game, but unfortunately I think the wait times between certain parts is a bit too long, and the controls and hitbox for the frisbee minigame could use improvement. Really like the graphics and the music, and I think the ambient sound design could probably use a bit more variance. Overall a neat experience!

Lovely concept for a game! While it's unfortunate you weren't able to get the storm into the game I think what you have here is a solid start for a fun experience! Really like the music and the sound effect, nothing makes me more excited than a Lydian chord :)

Lovely game! I would definitely love to see this project get developed more. While I really love the aesthetic choice of this game, I wished that there would've been some way provide a way of guiding players if they get lost. I also found myself unable to orient myself sometimes due to how similar the cat was to the environment around. In any case, this is a pretty but short experience!

Lovely worldbuilding and art! Ran into a few instances of the same dialogue running twice but overall was a pretty and enjoyable experience

I like the premise of the game! I think with a little more player-facing information about sandwich making and better driving controls I think this could be a fun and solid game. I like that the sandwich icons that tell you where there are customers and what they want, but they can get hard to read especially when it gets flipped vertically. Good job!

Really solid game! I think the default attack range might be too short and that there was a way to heal outside of upgrades, but overall enjoyed it!

Insanely good game all around! Crazy that you all managed to get all of this completed in a week. Good job!

I think the two main gameplay loops are solid and works well together! With additional mechanics and a perhaps more fast-paced Phase 2 this could be a neat game to sink a few hours into. I really like all the art assets as a lot of care has been put into the aesthetics of the world as well as the menus.

That being said, I find the choice of The Entertainer metal cover as the Phase 2music to be very intriguing as its source material doesn't sound like something that goes hand-in-hand with the gameplay experience, and the genre feels too heavy for the colorful aesthetic. I did like some of the sound design, but in particular I feel the sound effect for shooting could also use a bit more oomph to make that experience feel a lot better.

Otherwise this is a very cool game! Congrats on finishing it!

I think you have a pretty neat experience here! The art and writing was delightful. I think with more work into the implementation of the audio this would be a great experience to expand upon. Great job!

Ah thank you so much for playing our game! Glad to see you enjoyed it.

Yes, this is horror themed!

Here's our game, hope you'll enjoy it!

Hi, first of all big thanks for this thread and the videos too!

I'm one part of Fallacy Studio, which is a group of game development students from University of California, Santa Cruz (both ongoing and alumni)! For this jam, our group made a metroidvania platformer set in an unknown new planet that has appeared within the star system. Players must dive into the depths of this planet to discover the secrets of the planet.

https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2235848

Our group is definitely planning on releasing a small update to address some common feedback we've received from playthroughs of the game, but have no further plans for this game beyond that. Nevertheless we are still very proud of what we've made as it has showed a lot of growth since our last game! Hope you'll enjoy playing it!

No rats in our game, but it's still a fun short experience!

That's a super cool idea! Our team would greatly appreciate if you could check out our game, it's a metroidvania where you explore the depths of a new unknown planet:

Neat little game! Really liked how the worm is animated. The controls when making a full 180 degree turn can feel fickle at times, which is scary especially when I'm trying to back away from a dead end in the map. I think some audio could make this game feel better to play. Good job!

I love the setting for the jam's theme in this game! I think the pacing of enemy spawns could be slowed down just a little. Other than that, some enemy variety would be cool. Keep up the good work!

Here's our game that we made, hope you'll enjoy it!

I think that while I could understand the narrator's thoughts, I think that it could definitely use with some more depth as it would help me understand Sean as a person better. I understand that they are close to Jacqueline, but I would like to see some sort of conflict in Sean's perception of Jacqueline seeing as she appears to coerce Sean into doing something that they perhaps are not comfortable with (if the player does go down that path). I think that having this conflict arise earlier in the story can help solidify Sean as a character, as they eventually give in to the use of substances and forget about that initial conflict. This is just one possible example, but there are definitely plenty of ways to expand upon the writing of the story.

Cute game! I think some background music would help greatly with the atmosphere of the game. Great job!

Heyo, I played your game and left some notes on the submission page. Here's our game, hope you enjoy it!

Pretty neat game! I would definitely suggest having an automatic reload mechanism for the player's weapon as I felt like having to manually reload the weapon when empty disrupted the flow of the game. Other than that, I think with some balancing to the enemies this would be a fun game! Definitely wish the theme was more present in the game.

Pretty good game! I think some sort of narrative design to imply that this is a dream would make it connect better with the theme of the jam. I think having enemies play voice lines can help players be more prepared for enemies so that they don't get surprised and lose way more health than need be. Other than that, controls feel robust. Good job!

Thanks for playing our game! Our team was actually inspired by SCP-3333 where you are indeed diving deeper into an unknown anomaly, however it is going upwards through hatches instead of deeper into a planet. Hope that clarifies our interpretation of the theme!

This is a good mini visual novel! I do like the overall arc of the storyline but I do wish that the narrator's thoughts were presented more clearly. I think the artstyle matches pretty nicely with the story, though I think that skipping dialogues can have weird side effects with the background and sprites not being loaded at times. I would suggest reducing the number of beep sounds played to once every few letters when the text is being written into the box as it felt very very loud. I think with some polish and revisions to the story this has the potential to be great. Good job!

Really amazing work here, especially dig all the VFX! The only things I can suggest would be some sort of cooldown for the attacks and a counter for enemy remaining. Excellent job!
