I like the idea of the game but I feel some balancing is required and maybe a tutorial and lore can be added to the game.

It seems strange to me that all these ingots are dripping around the city. Even more strange is that paying bills always gives the same amount of time, given that bills will vary widely in value.

Developer

 The original idea was to have a wide range of items being available to collect, and Lewis would literally buy anything which would align more with the theme, but I ran out of time. Thanks for taking the time to play my game!

Phew, barely made it on a last second! Man, it always amazed me how people who can barely pay the bills (in a city littered with gold, silver and copper ingots!) always somehow manage to have kids, divorce and pay child support! Also, this Lewis fella is loaded! Probably doesn't has to pay child support... or is he just skipping on taxes?

Nice and simple game play loop! Some bars are stuck from under one of the objects there. I would also suggest to increase the pickup range of the bars. Other than that, solid game for the jam. Well done!

Fun playing, Movement and gameplay felt satisfying. Only had one issues with getting a bronze bar from one of the ice cream things. Apart from that everything worked well. Ran out of time in my first go but was able to pay all the bills on my second attempt. Good Game!

I had a very fun time playing this game. Short and sweet and a little difficult. Gameplay is fun and I love the 3d environment you've built

Developer

Thanks for playing my game and for the kind words.

Nice little game, Lewis really be underpaying me for those gold bars tho

Developer

Lewis is seriously taking advantage of the situation with his horrendous buy prices for gold. Thanks for Playing!

Nice job for your first Jam! :) Hope to see more of your submissions in the future, its a solid collector game with well functioning mechanics! Some jankiness related to camera resetting and maybe audio cues would have been nice to look into.

Thank you! Going to look at improving the first person camera for future projects.

The Synty City Pack did a lot of the heavy lifting, hoping to improve my UI skills! Thanks for the feedback!

Fun little game, beside the clunky bars under cars, some audio feedbacks would add a lot to when picking objects or selling.

Good job !

Developer

I agree, sfx would have elevated the experience a little bit. Thanks for the feedback and taking the time to play my game!

The ray casting is a bit clunky or it might be a collider issue, not sure. Had difficulty picking up the bars. The game is fun and got me to re-run a couple of times. Good job on making the game.

Developer

Definitely a combination of too short of a raycast and colliders covering the bars. Im glad you had fun, and thank you for taking the time to play my game.

Nice work, I really wanted the bar under the Hotdog stand... The music choice is good, I felt rushed from the moment it started.

Developer

That dang HotDog Stand! Did not realize it was unobtainable until it was too late. Thanks for the kind feedback!

Bit hard to pick up the bars some times, but other than that, good bones, and systems. The discover system was nice and could be expanded nicely.

Developer

Yes, I should have double checked the placements and increased the pickup range. Thanks for the kind words.

Fun! I did not pay all my bills in time but I liked doing it. Not a sentence you'd hear me say. :)

Running back and forth got tiresome, but it was fun to spot a gold bar under a car or something. That little dopamine hit kept me playing. You picked some good assets, it looks and sounds nice.

Good work!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words, definitely should have improved the trek back to and from Lewis to keep it a little more engaging.

I failed to pay the bills on time ^.^; It was a fun little game, nice job.

Developer

Thank You!
