Nice game! Rated (✓▽✓)

Random opinion:

I think can try using Cinemachine for camera, it's pretty flexibble and easy to use. Using existing assets is also a good practice for jam, so you can concentrate on gameplay and core parts of your game. There are a lot of free assets that may suit your purposes.

Some bg music would be great.

I'm not sure if you just changing Y coodinate of your char to move him up. AddForce ForceMode.Impulse might look better.

Everyone in this thread correct me if i'm wrong (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

Here's my game, My Pop Up Power Up Shop, blends battles and herb farming. Feedback welcome: /jam/brackeys-13/rate/3349174. I’ll rate yours soon!

Loved your game concept! Rated (✓▽✓)

Random opinion:

- Access to tools with number keys would be nice, cause for me i had to switch from water/showel/seeds back and forth all the time

- Maybe showing hp of heroes somewhere, but it might be an aspect of game not to show tho, so you had to switch back to battle

- For me it's too much text on screen, so picture looks dirty (noisy). For example I think info about bushes and rocks is unnecesary, cause you will see it at the end of the day(information that you will get automaticaly). Same about hi-score(to main menu? to menu?), "Use the crops in Battle menu to heal them" (shorten to "Heal heroes with crops", full information inside tutorial, so we dont need to see instructions all the time), Battle menu not named Battle menu, but "HELP THE HEROES"(two instances of same entity)

- Maybe Replace "Buy More" with just "Buy" or shop icon.

Correct me if i'm wrong (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

The Quiet MenSubmitted1 year ago

Wow, thanks for such detailed feed back! I really really appreciate it !!!

You can cycle through the tools with the mouse scroll wheel too. Funny that I have all that text and I forgot to mention that lol.

Thanks again for the superb feedback, I'll add all your recommendations after the jam

frogsropSubmitted1 year ago (1 edit)

Oh, I actually saw that i can switch with scroll wheel and you mentioned in "how to play" left bottom corner over "buy more" ^^ But sometimes scrolling through all item doesn't feel good for me, cause i have to aim at this point. Clicking 1 or 2 feels faster and more reliable.

Ah got it. Yeah, using the number keys are totally the better way to handle it. Thanks for the expert advice :D

Nice game! Rated (✓▽✓)

Random opinion:

- IMO JRPG not really suits gamejam format, cause people easily loose engagement. To get true expirience you had to be involved/contributed to the game. It takes too much time to get to the point.

- NPC interactions feels a bit inconsistent when you play with mouse.

+ Gameplay is smooth and relaxing, art is nice and music in place!

Rig the Reels is a game where you have to rig a slot machine in your favor via playing minigames in order to pay your taxes.

I just started learning Godot two months ago. This was my first game making experience from scratch outside of following tutorials. I will try to play and rate the other games here as well. Congrats to everyone that crossed the finish line. It wasn't easy as a one man show! lol I had to keep limiting the scope of what I wanted to do, but it was really fun to learn.

Cool idea with Eve and Forbiden fruit! Rated (✓▽✓)

Random opinion:

It might be a good idea of using assets (this for example), not to spend much time on it
i droped Eve a few time by accident (it's my bad), maybe change to click to hold and click to drop(need playtesting not shure here).

Well done for your first gamejam!

Cool idea! Rated (✓▽✓)

Random opinion:

- it takes 8 click to get to edit mode from finished state. "finished" -> space -> space -> space -> space -> space -> space -> space -> edit ✓. IMHO it's ok for the first try, but everty time it takes too much time and starts to anoy. I think you can request user input for text only if it's importan (player would miss some importan information if he don't read), in other case you can switch text in background. Als skip button might work well.

- ctrl + z instead of "undo" button and ability OR moving item menu with swipe/scroll

- Move joints after they placed

- And the most missing object is eraser, It's really needed when you experimenting back and forth

QoL would improve game greatly i think.

Nice game overall! Good luck

SkryblinkSubmitted1 year ago

Thanks for the thoughtful response! Yes I think the UI and functionality can a bit of a short coming. If it helps the test button activates physics but doesn't run the car

frogsropSubmitted1 year ago

I used test, that's surely a good thing. With test you can validate that nothing breaks immideatly, but it's still far from actual run with a car where shit starts to happen (At this point may be I'm playing it wrong and maybe you expected that user wont need to run car many times). But that's only my thoughts, you better know how your game should look <3

You are doing really well in my opinion for "pretty bad artist". You make it simple still recognizable and consistent, so it means that you have inner feeling that let's you do good ^^ thats cool! I don't have that (-_-'), even if i try making it simple, always looks like shit xD my wife saves me here :D

SkryblinkSubmitted1 year ago (1 edit)

Yeah that's a good point. the reason it doesn't run on test is to serve two reasons. one being that the physics not playing out exactly the same every time so a player might see they're creation work, but then it fails on the crash simmons test, which could be frustrating, and also I like the idea of seeing it run for the first time and seeing it crash terribly! I always think it's funny being so confidant in a build only to see it fall apart like nothing!

But I definitely agree that listening to Crash every time is pretty redundant. if I were to fix anything I'd probably make a quick skip button for his dialogue, but I didn't get around to that sadly.

yeah I always try to stick to a simple color palette since that can look nice with no artistic skill.

Anyway thanks for the super thoughtful review!

frogsropSubmitted1 year ago (1 edit)

Hmm, I see! Thank you for explaining your thoughts!

You are welcome ;)
