Developer

What kind of update are ya looking for? :D

I would like to see more different types of ice cream, maybe some levels, and a better visual experience.

Developer

Oooo different kinds of ice cream is absolutely something we tried to do before the end of this Game jam. Any suggestions on flavors and what you'd want to see them do?


Levels are interesting but for a game jam game we're probably not going to be adding anymore unfortunately 😅

As for better visual experience I'm curious what you had in mind! This is my first experience being the artist on a project like this so I'd be open to taking feedback on how to make things look better.

very nice game and game loop, through I would tweak the balancing to the ice cream ammunition a bit and add some structures to the terrain maybe ^^ Very nice.

Developer

I love that suggestion! It wasn't something we had initially considered in our primary game loop but would absolutely be something we could do if we took this further.

What a strange game, so many questions ¦3

I like that you can control the catapult, but is there any reason not to throw at max power every time?

Developer

Since the power determines the distance of the ice cream, there were plans for more types of ice cream like the raid active bubblegum that were aoe locations on the ground that did damage. Which meant the difference in power mainly would be to control where the splatter lands.
