great game, i figured weed surrounded by crops is the best strat, as crops healing is just enough to keep everything alive no matter what. Unfortunately, game crashes every time i get past 1000 hp or something so I cant cover the whole map. Also, is being able to zoom out and pan with middle mouse button intended? Because there are a lot of free space outside the black plague, and if you're quick enough you can startup on it and its much better than middle 2x2. Although then crash comes even earlier
First of all, thanks so much for the review and the kind words! To be honest I dont think I've ever even played this long.. We will try to fix the crash :)
Wait you can PAN? I just assumed you finished the game once you filled every starting square. That's good to know lol and yes it does get laggy after a bit. I think each number and plus sign spawning takes a lot of power and since a crop spawns 4 pluses they are "super power hungry". If I am right about that (obviously I am taking a blind shot) object pooling would be a great idea. Basically instead of spawning a new text with the + sign every time you just deactivate them and then re-activate them once the next text appears and only change the number/sign on it if needed.
Really great game though. It was fun to play!
Yess, I'm going to write up a quick tutorial on the page. And I just implemented pooling for the particle systems. I'm pretty sure the game shouldn't crash anymore
Nice! That was a quick fix.
Yeah it was a bug we discovered right before we had to publish. I thought i had fixed it with a temporary fix but it seams i was wrong
I replayed the game and now it doesn't crash, But I am not doing full map run, it takes too much time getting money for new seeds, I think memory shortage has turned into seed shortage
Oh my god. It actually means a lot to me that someone has put this much time into playing our game :)
We kind of have something planned to solve the money problem. I’ll see if I can implement it tomorrow
Do you mind us putting your Screenshot up on the games page?
I don't mind, you can do that
Cool concept but some kind of tutorial would be appreciated. Even just some text in the games description explaining the game would be enough, no need for an in-game tutorial. It took me so long to understand what is happening or that I can "dig out" spaces by clicking on them. I was using the TNT to clear up space and was confused how I am supposed to get this much money to buy more lol
Yeah that’s a really good point. We tried to get it across by changing the cursor to a sword. But it’s not as intuitive as we hoped
