Nice clicker game! I could see this as a vertical slice for a larger idle clicker. Loved the Balatro-esque lava lamp-like background. The potato mutations as you clicked on it was cool. Good job!
Thank you very much! We plan to make a bigger vertical slice as a demo for the full game. But we're glad you found it already compelling!
Well made clicker game. Good sound effects and game progression.
How did you make that background effect in Godot?
Thank you so much! It's a background white ColorRect filled with a material shader that uses three colors to make a fractal brownian motion effect. We didn't actually make it, we found it in godotshaders.com as a free asset and decided that it would match the aesthetic we wanted.
Art is definitely a 10/10 I loved the potatoes and the background shader. After I bought a few of everything and some upgrades it wasn't clear if there was more to do that would show up later or not. Maybe there was and I got impatient, but if not I would have liked a bit more to do or a set end point. Nice work!
Thank you so much! Yeah it was a very short prototype indeed. The end (like, if there was one) is when you buy a lab and the potatos change when you click! But we are definitely making future updates to add more stuff!
I really like the calming music and I liked that when you add the labs the potato actually changes on every click! A very good clicker game! Good job!
Thank you so much! We wanted to at least implement a simple thing related to mutation, so that's our attempt right there haha
Very fun! Love the overall vibe! Only thing that stood out to me was that the light text on the light background in the farm tab is quite hard to read.
Thank you! Yeah, this stood out for us too but it was one of the things we skipped for the sake of time...
cool clicker, the art is great, I like the look of the potato. The music is also good, relaxing and not distracting
Thank you very much for playing! We are glad you liked it!
Fun little clicker game, Art and UI were very well Clicker coded !
Thanks for the kind words!
Beautiful game! I really love the art and the UI design. Pretty simple but catchy. Great job!
Glad you liked it so much. Thanks for playing!
Simple but very balanced and polished! This has great art, relaxing ambience, and satisfying sounds. I enjoyed this one.
Nice work!
Thank you for the feedback and for playing our game!
Number goes up makes my brain feel good - really nicely executed entry! The art for the different styles of potatoes looked really dang nice too. The rate of upgrades was nice and it made me want to keep on buying more!
Thank you so much! We're glad you liked it!
One of the more balanced clickers I've seen for a jam, doesn't rely too too much on manual clicks, and has an on-ramp that always has the player earning enough coins for at least one upgrade pretty much every minute. Well done.
Thank you! We're glad you find that, it's actually our first try on the clicker genre.
Nice clicker, I like the audio and graphics. Manual clicking quickly became pointless due to the lack of click upgrades, but I'm glad I still clicked so I got to see the mutated potatoes.
Thank you very much! In relation to manual clicking we agree and will definitely implement more stuff in future updates.
potato :) not that original but graphics and sound gud
Thank you very much! Yeah it's definitely not that original haha
Prequel to Brotato, huh :P
He is a Mutatoes.inc experiment that managed to escape...
Perfectly cute little clicker game that I think captures the original charm of things like cookie clicker that many more recent clickers have lost.
Also a big fan of the visual style!
Thank you very much! Your comment means a lot to us! That's what we wanted to capture! Even though unfinished haha
This is one of the most enjoyable clicker games I have played recently. The audio, animations, and gameplay feel incredibly satisfying. I played manually for roughly 10 minutes before letting my Python script do the rest like always馃槄 Excellent game!
Thank you very much! I think people (both devs and players) underestimate how the clicker genre can be fun. Glad you liked it!
Playing your game was a charming experience. It's quiet, short, but incredibly enjoyable and memorable. I really loved the art style and the design of the potato mutations. Especially the crunchy sound that makes me want to eat that potato
Congratulations on successfully completing the game for this jam, and best of luck with your future projects!
Thank you! We are glad you liked it! Our artist .sawmankler. is a legend, right?
Yeah, he is!
Nice game !
Thank you very much!
If mobile games were more like this, the world would already be a better place. It's funny, creative, and has a beautiful design. I don't usually like this kind of game, but this one was genuinely fun.
We really appreciate your comment! Making it we really tought about making it mobile-friendly but more polished than current mobile games of the genre. Glad you liked it!
Absolutely the easiest 5 in graphics all day for me. Gameplay wise, feels like the click was heavily neglected, but the UX was fantastic. Also really loved the music and the UI sounds, the potato sound did lack some meat though, wish it was heavier.
Thank you very much! I agree with you that the click was neglected, we are figuring out ways to make it still valuable in mid and late game. I'm glad you liked the music and sounds! About the potato sound, you suggestion is noted!
