How does your game fit the theme?
Scale Event Starting! is a game that is constantly in action, as you can tell from the name of the game. The main reason for this action is the event system and boss battles that take place every 10 seconds. Designing the events and organizing the boss battles fits in with the GMTK Game Jam 2024 “Built to Scale” theme as Scale means that the character is in scale (power-up), the dimensions are in scale, the time is in scale, the music is in scale and of course the battles are in scale.

Visuals and effects really adds to the game feel, but it was super hard for me lol. Awesome game though I really liked it!

this game its very hard i barely made it to the first boss

Developer

:), It may seem difficult at first, but after a few tries you'll get the hang of it and pass.

Super cool game!! I loved the visual style and the effects you did, and the music went with it really well! I'm not great at bullet hells personally, and even if i didn't beat the game, I had a lot of fun and liked the random effect aspect as well.

It's a pity I couldn't enjoy the game because of it's screenshakes. My headaches with them. But it looked really nice.

Developer

haha,we warned you at the beginning

The resizing window in a survival genre is very unique and fun!

Developer

Thanks!

Really well polished and I love the art style! Good work!

Developer

Thanks!

I enjoyed that you incorporated the theme of "Scale" into the game in so many different ways! Rescaling the window was particularly good. I also liked the art style,  and the music was great! I did think it was a little punishing for a jam game--I might've preferred if it was easier to heal. Overall, great job!

Developer

Thanks for your feedbacks.

 Please think about rating our game as well!

"Scale window" is actually crazy, in a good way though. Game was really good but the mushroom miniboss went from easy to ridiculously hard immediately because it spawned like 20 enemies at once. Still, a great entry

Developer

Thanks! sometimes the difficulty can get weird because we didn't have much time to playtest :c

I liked the execution, the UI felt pretty polished, the theme was heavily taken into account. I can only suggest adding screen shake and enemy death particles.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, we will take it into consideration

WINDOW SCALE DOWN

Hilarious!! What a rad style with some humor thrown into the mix. That epilepsy warning was a definitely a wise design design given the visuals. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks, we thought that epilepsy warning was necessary, even if only for a limited period of time.

 Please think about rating our game as well!
