Congrats on your first game. It took me a while to understand the interactions. a little more information on the site of the game would have been helpful. But it was fun to play.
Thanks for playing the game. The part of pushing it too much is one of the main tensions in the game. Since you can never know how big a bubble can grow. The new version, which will come after the voting period, will have the effect that when two bubbles join the max size of the bubble will be increased by a little. .. In the current version it's more important to pop each bubble to gain the max number of points. joining bubbles currently, still loses you net points.
Yes, the game has no progression at this time. The focus was on tactic rather than reaction speed. I am thinking about introducing more colors and possibly something that will give you extra points when you pop combinations. of colors in the right order. Like a multiplier.
Fun little game. Interesting idea with keeping the aim in the middle. I would have expected that you try to hit the targets by moving the mouse there. But I understand that you come from a FPS background and with that mind shift it makes sense. .. I was able to get 3 or 4 targets before I lost. most times I only got 1 or two.
Nice game. was fun to play. I really liked how everything became green when you finished a level. The shooting and bullet mechanic could feel more precise. It was very hard to gauge how long a shot is traveling.
Yes, while "Click the Circle" was not the direct inspiration for the idea, I watched his video after I had kind of decided for what I wanted to do and his idea was going into the final implementation.
Yeah, the bugs are annoying. I have a collider for the spawn area that "sucks up" the clicks. It was easy to fix but it is annoying that it is in the released version. Thanks a lot for playing my game.
Yes, the idea came from the theme. I wanted you to give them time to grow. My first idea was to be a bubble farmer... You needed to try to get the largest bubble you can and remove the "weeds" that hinder its growth. The reward function does not really support it. There is a better reward to harvest as many bubbles as possible and not let the same colors merge. When opposite colors are about to touch, you need to harvest the larger bubble.
Oh that makes sense.. I did have a hunch that it might be something like that.. but I thought its the stack size of the animal that has the main influence.
I understand your reasoning. I would then just put in a timer and a "round" marker of how often someone watered the plant.
As for the transitions.. just instantiate the player on the center position each time on a map switch. Then you will not run into such an issue. Might not be the best choice, but it should work.
Thank you for trying out my game. Yes, currently it is only spawning randomly. I want to exclude currently occupied space from the spawning, but did not get around to it.
yes, a better spawning mechanic is something I want to do. But it is also a risk of farming a large bubble. But I don’t want things to spawn under bubbles.
Interesting idea. The main issue I had is that the theme of the game has no reachable goal. made it a little frustrating. I ended up multiple times being stuck in the border after crossing to the next area.
But nice implementation for the limited amount of time.
