Thanks! The browser version is quite laggy as the engine im using isnt meant for browser games. I used the love2d game engine https://love2d.org/
Cute game!! Loved the art style and aesthetic. The cherry blossoms were gorgeous!
Critiques:
-like the other guy said, add clouds. Theyd make the game look a little better. GO to craftpix. Thats were i got my background for my game for this jam.
-The camera could be smoother. It kinda strained my eyes as the camera instantly went from 0 to 100. There are tutorials for this on youtube. Its not too hard to ipleent
-the controls can be polished just a little more
-checkpoints would be an excellent addition! (i died so much lol)
Hi! Just replayed the game. I spent more time and got used to the UI. The tutorial was a nice addition. I guess i just found it overwhelming since it was my first time with a strategy game ever lol.
Regarding the ending - I just felt that its weird that the game tells us that we thought nothing went wrong when we saw our base blow up. A better approach would be to say something like :"Nothing could go wrong. But it did...Mission failed" This is a minor thing so dont worry too much.
regarding :"What did you want to call The Resistance Base/HQ?"
Exactly that. Call it "The Resistance's HQ" or something along the lines of that. It just doesnt look like a city becuase of the islands and lack of buildings.
Again. thank you for the feedback, im working on an update as of writing.
Thanks so much. I wasnt expecting all this lol. Im glad you enjoyed it.
1. I have been thinking of adding a powerup option every "x" ghosts collected,
2. The text thing is very cool and ill definitely add that
3. Ill add some sort of limited powerup option to clear ghosts (its the easiest)
4. I might add the growth powerup (i feel like its a bit cheap lol)
I just came from playing your game. Keep in mind, I dont really play any strategy games at all.
Positives:
-the art style and aesthetic is amazing (I love low poly stuff)
-The voice acting was really cool
-The premise is really cool
-The setting is really cool but i feel like it should be called The Resistance base/HQ instead
-I feel like the UI needs some polishing to make it easier for the player to know whats going on(again i dont play these types of games so forgive me if i didnt understand something). I didnt know where to look.
-A linux and mac port would be great (im on linux lol)
-Although the premise is really good, I found the execution of it not as good - The ending could be rephrased into being "You worked so hard to stop anything from going wrong. In the end it didnt matter..." or something like that.-A little UI companion explaining how to fight against the aliens would make the game feel a lot more welcoming.
Anyway thanks for the feedback . Your game was a banger!
