Developer

THANK YOU!

Submitted(+1)

Froot Shoot. That's it, there's nothing more to be said. 10/10, would genuinely buy on Steam.

Developer

Thank you for saying so friend! Maybe I will consider it? Maybe. FrootShoot is love, FrootShoot is life!

Submitted(+1)

yooo IS THIS THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED FROOTSHOOT?? The game is as amazing as I have heard!

Developer

Not as CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED as THE Null Rush! Seriously though, your game is absolutely outstanding. Take everyones advice and keep going with it for a full Steam release!

Froot Shoot

Developer

Well said! Thank you for playing on stream. I really do appreciate it. I have watched your videos for a while and have always been a big fan! Your game is my favorite game in the entire jam

We love some good, old Fruit Ninja, haha! I took like 5 short rounds for me to understand all of the fruits and objects mechanics, but once I did, I was rolling! Got over 600k points!

Good job!

Developer(+1)

Remember, Froot Shoot inspired Fruit Ninja! If there was no Froot Shoot, there is no Fruit Ninja!

But seriously, thank you for playing. I am happy you enjoyed!

Joyful Lee? the developer from the hit game riftella??

Developer(+1)

WHAT IS RIFTELLA! XD

Xilurus's unreleased game

LOVE THE MONKEY LOVE THE POLISH LOVE THE GAMEPLAY LOVE FROOTSHOOT
hype aside. My only suggestion would be to let us pick 1 out of 2 upgrades. This was so good Xilurus needs to play this

Developer(+1)

YOU HELPED MAKE CROSS X VALOR! That is genuinely my favorite submission in the whole jam. So your words mean a lot! The polish? I mean we do indeed love them. Just confused what you mean! XD Thank you for playing and I am so happy you got to play eventually!

Ok lemme expand on why I like the "game polish". The tutorial being tied to pomello is amazing. The visual feedback on everything is perfect. Hitbox being generous is brilliant game design. Game is well balanced. Throwing mechanic is very clean. Need I say more?

Developer(+1)

Oh polish! I thought you meant Polish! Like the country. I don't know why I thought that. I AM SO SORRY XD. Thank you so much for the extra compliments because I am slow!

(+1)

Pomelo is hilarious. Game so simple, yet you made it exciting. Love the design and everything. I will now try to beat my high score- bye.

Developer

It was very kind of you to actually go and play it from chat! I really appreciate it :) Thank you so much. And I am happy Pomelo didn't make you mad!

Submitted(+1)

This game was amazing, got 1.45M points. Froot shoot.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! 1.4M is great :)

Submitted(+1)

I could go further, but the game becomes more like an idle clicker than an aiming arcade after so many upgrades lol.

Joke aside, I really liked this entry. The gameplay hooks you right away, and the game's art style and narrative work together really well! ^-^

It feels very polished and "juicy", shooting fruit is really satisfying. I found just a couple of things that could be imporved in my opinion. First, you can't chose upgrades, so the player keeps getting stronger without any agency about it. And second, I found a bit annoying that a fast-paced gameplay keeps pause itself (with chest opening and the coconout). It's the kind of thing that makes me lose focus. It's a bit like pausing in a racing game: you already know you're going to crash at the next corner once you resume. I hope that makes sense. XD

Developer(+1)

WOW! 20,000,000! That is more than I even got. And I 100% agree with your feedback. You should have had to pick 1 of 3 upgrades from chests but for some reason that didn't register in my head until after the fact. I am so mad at myself for that :( THANK YOU FOR PLAYING THOUGH. TRULY. I appreciate and love your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

I love this! Very polished and very enjoyable game. Both visuals and audio is very charming! Amazing job! :)

Developer

I appreciate you so much! Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

This is GenZ's Fruit Ninja, and I'm all up for it! Please release this as a mobile game. I loved the narrative onboarding, and the art is perfect for this game. gg

Developer

Thank you so much! And happy you like the narrative tutorial. I understand it wasn't for everybody. But thank you for appreciating it 

Submitted(+1)

Stop it's so cuteeeeeee and the art is so pretty

Developer

Thank you so much! :)

Submitted(+1)

This is a really polished game! I enjoyed having to balance between the different mechanics and found it really fun to play. The music and art is also really nice. One thing I would change is to have multiple ways to throw stuff as I'm playing on trackpad and it's hard to right click (This is just a personal nitpick)Regardless, this is a great game!

Developer

Wow. It must be very hard to play on track pad. But thank you so much for your feedback and for playing the game!

Submitted(+1)

This game is really cute, the polish you were able to get is incredible! 

Developer

I really appreciate it :) thank you for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Wow! Excellent game!
Pomelo saying who names their child after a fruit is a bit hypocritical xD

Art style is very cute and even hypnotizing at times.

Got to almost 3 million! I think that says a lot how I feel about the game

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing. You know what is so funny? I didn't even realise how hypocritical that was until you said it. GREAT SCORE by the way!

Submitted(+1)

Great and funny! Honestly I think this is better than most similar games. The right click dragging adds quite a bit to the gameplay instead of just monotonously clicking on the fruits. Played it for longer than I thought I would.

Developer

I am happy to hear it. Thank you for playing
