Very, very beautiful looking game. And it's super polished as well. Even a custom splashscreen! Nice. About the gameplay, despite being on the short side, it's rather good. The background music fits perfectly and makes it much more enjoyable. I'd love to have more things to do here, more Tiny Little Things to find.

Looking forward to seeing this game in part 2! 😊

Developer

Thank you very much for the feedback! More Tiny Little Things are on the way ;)

The art is amazing and I love the little interactive elements. Its a wonderful short and sweet hidden object game.

Everything is so neat! I have only one suggestion: it's better to display raised items above the ui.
It would be peak if you make more levels or randomize items' locations!

Developer

Items will be rendered on top of the UI next update (hopefully XD) and more levels are on the way, for sure. Thank you very much for the kind words! :D

The art direction in this one is great! Color shapes and music all go in harmony I wish it had much more levels!

Developer

Thank you very much! More levels are in the work :)

Hello!

Nice visual and little concept. The colors are very nice!

Definitely need more levels!

As others pointed out, while moving, specially on the corners, it easy to get “stuck”. Maybe you can fix it but it’s not that important.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for the compliments! :D I'll certainly strive to add more levels during part 2, and also fix the camera as well. It bothered me too, but I ran out of time for a thorough solution xD

Submitted(+1)

Awesome lil I-spy game, the camera gets stuck on the walls. Can't wait to see more level in round 2!

Developer(+1)

Seems like the camera thing is a bigger gripe with players than I was hoping for. Will find a fix! Thank you for playing and for the kind words :D

Submitted(+1)

You use godot right? gotta clamp the side inputs. 
Hope this helps!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll look into it for sure :) The camera itself in my case isn't a problem because it's attached to a CharacterBody2D that moves like a "player", but is invisible (weird way to move a camera and UI, maybe? xD). I think the solution lies in simple collisions but I need to look into it because it didn't seem to work at first when I tried before the deadline.

Submitted(+1)

Cool! yeah you should be able to just add camera 2d to the scene, with its own script and the just have it move via code! Good luck!

Submitted

What a beautiful chill game! Love it. It totally needs another level :D

Gorgeous art, and the music is perfect and chill. 

My only gripe: The view gets weirdly stuck in the corners and you have mess with the keys to get it to 'unstick'.

Submitted

I thought this was so cute and such a chill vibe, the assets and music were really well done and i love the color palette! I think this would very much benefit from having maybe slightly bigger levels, maybe you collect more little items so you have more time to really soak in the environment but those are just ideas. Fantastic cute little game :)

Submitted(+2)

Very cozy and cute :) I love how the environment moves as you find the items. That made it feel a lot more interactive and like the world was alive.

Developer

I was so worried the animation were going to slow down the whole game, but for now that doesn't seem to be happening and I'm glad XD Thank you for your kind words, I'll try and make the other leves just as lively <3

Awesome game, the art is really nice, the music is impressive for a first time and I really like the moving objects to reveal the hidden items.

I have some feedback if that's okay:

I think you misspelled "them" as "then" on the itch page (fourth bullet point).

I see you already got the feedback on the objects being above the border but maybe I can give some pointers to help with that. In godot the nodes at the bottom of the tree are in the front by default, so maybe just moving the border node up a bit might work. For visuals there is also the z index in the node properties under canvas item->ordering higher moves items in the foreground so you can also order the layers like that.

The camera sticks to the borders a bit, like if you walk offscreen and have to return first before you can move away from the border again.

There is a bug (pictures) when you finish the game, go back to the menu and then reset the game with the button at the top some unexpected things happen:

The you found everything button is still there but you can play the game again.

When you go back to the main menu two songs play above each other.

Finally when you then reset the game from the main menu you can finish the game by just collecting five items.


Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for the feedback! That's the most important at this stage :D The camera bit is something that hopefully I'll be able to fix in the next update, along with a few other things. The bug you found is quite interesting, actually XD I forgot about possible menus and windows overlapping, thank you for reminding me xD Hopefully I'll find a better way to keep track of the objects so this kind of things don't happen again. About the objects not being on top, that's unfortunately something a bit more tricky since the UI is on a canvas layer and that one always renders on top of everything else :/ I am hoping to fix it by implementing a custom cursor system (it's a work in progress xD). Thank you again for playing and putting such efforts in the feedback, it's really appreciated <3

Submitted

Oh sorry about that, I'm quite new to godot, so I didn't know about that possibility.

Submitted(+1)

A very visually appealing and easy-to-play little game, well done! Perhaps add more objects to find as the game is very quick to complete. Calm and relaxing experience for the game I like it! (the art is very beautiful).

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! Adding objects is something that I will definetly do, even some that won't be necessary to finish the level, just to add a level of complexity :D

Submitted(+1)

Wow, the art here is gorgeous! I would love to see more levels in this game! Music is lovely too <3 Very calming and restful experience.

Developer(+1)

I'm really glad that seems to be the general experience :) And I'm also glad the music seems nice to most, I was worried about that XD More levels will come with the second part of the jam, for sure!

Submitted(+1)

the art is awesome here, so very cute. i do appreciate the retry button since you can just throw an item off-screen accidentally lol. i think having the objects show up above the ui when dragging might be better but that is just a small nitpick. really, you have a very nice game and i just want more of it.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! I waged war on the UI the whole development time, honestly XD I do want to figure it out so the objects appear on top of it for next part :)

Submitted(+1)

The music was very relaxing and easy to listen to. So for being a beginner, you really did great! And the art was stellar too. I'm sure there's a lot of simple but fun other interactions and items you could add to this so I look forward to seeing what you do in the next part of the jam!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! I do plan on adding more to play and interact with, that's for sure. I'm glad the music was good enough, I was so worried it was gonna grate someone's nerves XD

Submitted(+1)

Really lovely art + music here, which creates a super chill mood. The game might be a bit too simplistic for me, but I can see players finding this to be a relaxing experience. Nicely done.

Developer

I struggled with scope in other jams, so this time I might have erred on the other side and made the gameplay too small xD But I plan on expanding it during the second part! Thank you for the kind words <3
