How does the game fit the theme?
Equip Planet is supposed to be a hard rougue like game with major decisions on weather to stay and risk angering worse creatures on a planet for better loot or just leave the planet and the creautres get a slight boost to add to the loop. However the equipment system isn't fully done, so the "higher" level equipment is just the same stuff you normally would get.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I reused some of the controllers from my other games and then the sounds was taken from opengameart.org with the music by codeManu

The rest was done by me

So... in one of the planets, when you jump into the cave the player just falls through the ground and keeps falling through space. And I think the planets' art style should differ a bit. Also the hit boxes are so out of place. 

This is kinda too much for a jam, it's has a lot of potential for sure. 
Would love to see a post-jam version.

Interesting game! Favorite part was the character, very cool design and even has a little breathing animation when idling. The map was pretty unvaried and I clipped into a wall and got stuck but I don't fault you for that. Game jams have bugs haha A pause menu would have been nice to just get back to the main menu. Or an unstuck button. Good work for a solo dev for sure!

Developer(+1)

thanks man! Yeah I think the ledge grab mechanics are causing issues with clipping. I'll look at that after the jam. Thanks for playing!

The game is ambitious (surely too much for a jam), but the concept is cool!
I think you know there are some bugs:
In my first run I get stucked in an area from which I could not climb back up.
In my second attemp I drowned in an indescribable emptiness ahaha

Anyway hope you will update this, you nailed the mood even if it is a prototype

If you try mine, let me know what you think!

Developer

Thanks man! Yeah I need to look at this I think its something to do with the ledge grab, thanks for playing! I'll totally play yours!

Submitted

As you wrote more of a prototype. The art is really quite nice and the animations and sound are already well done. Keep it up and it will be great in the end.
 

Developer

Thanks man! Yeah I way over estimated what I could get done.

This is a very interesting idea! There may be some minor problems with the colliders and I accidentally flew under the map while trying to explore planet XD. I really liked the unobtrusive and appropriate music. Have you used generation to create caves?

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah I need to hash out the colliders. I created a modular cave generator but some of the modular part is man made, all i did was use about 18 different cube prefabs and stich them together by the entry and exit points. If your interested I can share my code on git. Its not really complex.

Submitted

Modularity is good. unless of course it's difficult for you, I would take a look at the implementation, I like to study the technical aspect)

Developer

yeah I think it wasn't too bad, I think I could do it better though, heres my GIT:

Hi! 👋

We played this game and we think it’s really amazing! Great work on the story, graphics, and everything 👍🎮

If you have a moment, it would be awesome if you could also check out our game and leave a rating, not just a comment. It would mean a lot and help us keep improving it! 🙏

Thanks so much to everyone reading this! 😄

Developer(+1)

thanks man! I'll take look at your game for sure!

This is a really cool idea. The mechanics feel confusing, walking is a bit buggy, and could use some work. It would be helpful to add a HUD to show you the current weather, objective and equipped items. Good luck!

Developer

Thanks man! I totally forgot about a HUD I'll have to add that after the Jam
