I like this game! Love how the sentences are on brand for the context. I enjoyed trying to figure out the sentences as soon as possible. The only issue I found was that it was almost too easy to buy all the vowels at the same time very early on because you get so much money quickly. When I figured out that you can buy fun accessories the amount of money made more sense but then maybe the vowels could be more expensive. But that's just a small thing. Overall I think it's really cool.
This is very relaxing, though surprisingly really hard - perhaps too hard for me. I would love if the clues were based on a specific theme, or there were a riddle to solve and the words there were the answer. So “Drinking from the River Lethe” would be related a clue. Perhaps we could also buy clues.
It would also be nice to see the game wrap up in some way, even if it would have the endless mode. It would be really interesting like a labyrinth in the afterlife, where you have to solve riddles to come back to life, like an epic greek hero.
Thanks for the feedback. A general "person/place/thing" might have helped and also a way to get clues when you're out of money (or maybe some way to make money after you run out of consonants). It does eventually have a "game over" screen after you beat all the puzzles but there's no connection or story between them which was another thing I did consider but abandoned in the end. Thanks for playing!
your game is very fun >>
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I had an amazing time playing. I kept looking over saying " please don't kill me bruh ". It felt like an intimate moment with death peeking over your shoulder. Also I learned a new word..."Lethe" only cost me all 430 coins. I thought i was going to be murdered when I hit the death spin — but he robbed me instead, which felt worse than dying(which apparently I already was lol). The sound, design, and dialogue sells the humor in a very serious situation. Id come back daily to play, great job!
Perfectly fine little execution of the game, though I feel like having it single player massively reduces the stakes. The atmosphere you went for worked pretty well I think. There were a couple of times where I thought the game registered my click wrong, but probably I just misclicked.
I was going to switch the UI to be a standard 2d panelcontainer but decided against it at the last second. I was a bit worried that having 3d buttons floating in space might cause issues. Maybe I'll also try to add multiplayer to this as I've never given that a shot before. Thanks for the feedback!
cool lil game, good work :D
Fun little Wheel of Fortune, nice.
Not bad. It's pretty engaging but nothing we haven't seen before.
Nice Game get laggy sometimes but overall it's good.
Web and 3d are probably a bad mix. That and spawning a ton of 3D coins with collision. Maybe mostly that!
Yes exactly.
nice game
Nice theme
yoo, i've beaten two puzzles, and buy the cap, the game so clean, and the ambaince too bro, bigg LIKE to you
