Thanks for playing! My friend started laughing so damn loud when he read “* unzips *” as a viable finisher. There are a lot of possible combinations (exactly 529 valid combinations, with 23 finishers). Two types of sentences (the ones asking for a substantive and the ones asking for an adjetive).
During the development I had the idea to not only to display all paintings made but also their respective insults. Due to time constraints the idea had to be scrapped.
Thanks! During the brainstorming phase, I almost decided to create a FridayNightFunkin-like gameplay for the artist. Since I already made a game with similar input, I switched to a Osu-like game. Ended up great.
Interested to see how you’ve programmed this. My game is also about sentence deconstruction, but I had to simplify to only accepting either adjetives or substantives. I’m curious on how you managed to create such text analysis.
Edit: I’ve just read the walkthrough. Ok, it was simpler than I thought! Great job!
One thing i noticed is that you can’t switch paint with the 1, 2 and 3 keys, it think that would have been much more useful
My friends also said this to me. Although it would be easy to implement, I was directing my focus on final polishing such as the style meter and a strange performance problem. When I revisit the game in the near future, I will apply those changes.
Baixo intelecto coisa nenhuma. Foi eu quem não dedicou tempo pra fazer um tutorial adequado. Eu tinha minhas prioridades…
as prioridades: style meter > tutorial decente 🤣
Muitíssimo obrigado por jogarem! Em um futuro próximo, possivelmente entrarei em contato com vocês, trocaremos uma ideia. Parabéns aos dois pelo jogo de vocês também!
Essentially, the guy on the left is a art critic. Your goal, in practice, is to choose a word that properly fits into the “____” space of the sentence. Since the time to develop was so short, I only managed to categorize the words as “substantives” and “adjetives”. The word at key 1 is always a substantive, at key 2 always an adjetive. After gathering a big enough combo, press 3 to end with a finisher.
My first thought when I heard the theme was to make a game where you are the developer. Then me and my friend laughed, since we thought that weren’t possible to be a) made in time for the jam; and b) fun.
First I was like: ok. Then I noticed the bullets ricochet. A great trick - which I think you already know - is to find an enemy and let they chase while being close. That way I managed to always have the camera on myself.
