I love the art and the music! Really creative minigames. I am also terrible at assembling weapons it seems.
Thank you so much!!!
Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in Part 3 @ 2:50:41! This was really polished and enjoyable! I just wish there was more content!
Thank you so much!!! I appreciate the feedback!!
Thank you so much for playing it and showing your followers it
This game is sick! The jazzy soundtrack and silhouette art style were so reminiscent of classic spy vibes. I also thought the mini games were fun and would have enjoyed more of them, even repeats. Good work!
Aah Archron dev! Will never stop glazing Archron lmao
Very glad to hear that! and thank you for playing, it was our composer's first jam and they nailed the music incredibly
Cool game! The art and story were really nice. The countdown timers were pretty gracious, I'd love to see a hard mode where you have to do a bunch of stuff in a shorter time limit. Nice job!
thanks for playing!
and thanks for the feedback, that's very fair, already thinking of doing like shorter timers, but accessibility settings to make timers longer in case of another iteration or spiritual successor
WOW! I wish I could give a 6th star for sound design on this; it is soooooo smooth. You really nailed the atmosphere with the color palette, art style, music choice, pacing... I think this might be my favorite game of the jam so far.
Thank for the comment and would you play it was full size
Right? Our composer did amazing,
super happy to hear it might be your favorite, thank you for playing!
Wooow super stylish game! Everything from the characters, to the music, to the writing was top notch! I think this project is worth expanding on :) Great job!
Thank you for the comment and i do think it should be worth building on but will there be enough people who will play it to make the time and effort put into it building it worth it
Great game ! I really like the minigames and wish there were more of them, but the narrative kept everything fresh and exciting ^^ Great game and great concept
Thank you for the comment and there might be if this prototype get made into someone bigger
Very cool I like the art and how dynamic the game seems. I think adding choices to it would also be very cool.
Thank you because this is just the proof of concept prototype thing and i'm liking the feedback from people liking it
thanks! and agreed, planning on doing something like that with a future iteration, and taking the GMTK "invisible choices" video as inspiration
A really good, complete game. I would have liked to play a few more episodes. I like the setting and the story.
Thank you for the comment and there might be more if there is enough people who would play it to make it worth putting in the time and effort to make it
one of the coolest games ive played so far, i really liked the artstyle and the short story! keep it up guys <3
Thank for the comment
awesome! glad you liked the style!
Big fan of the art, the music, and the vibes of this! Super duper appreciate the fact that you added little minigames into the narrative too - that always adds just an extra touch of engagement to a narrative game!
Thank you for the comment and it make me happy that there are people who like something i help to make
Thank you! Yeah, Planning in a possible future iteration or spiritual successor a way to tie the minigames even more directly to the story!
The art and music was awesome together!
Thank for the comment
this was such a stylish, quick-paced narrative game! i love the characters as well and wish we got to spend more time with them. great job!
Thank for the comment and if there is enough hype and people would play the full thing we might make this prototype into something full size
glad you liked the style and the characters! Thank you for playing!
This game was great! It's amazing how many people teamed up to finish it as well. I love the art style, the dialogue, and that final bomb defusing bit especially. You should be proud of yourselves!
Thank you for the comment and all of these comments make me want to turn this prototype into something real but I don't know if it would be worth the time or effort to do because I don't know if enough people would even play it to make it worth the time and effort.
This is the kind of stuff that people enjoy heaps once it's polished and finalised. It would be worth it even if nobody played the game honestly, just for the journey of making it. Just make it for yourself and if others play it (I would definitely), that's a bonus. I think you should go for it!
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it. I definitely think the tactile assembly under pressure gameplay is worth some kinda expansion, and I do have plans to. Maybe a spiritual successor? :O
The vibe and concept is really solid, curious to see where you take the idea if you continue to develop it.
Thanks for playing!
Thanks! and definitely, got a lot of ideas, but mostly involves at least more moving gun parts, like giving that pistol part a rackable slide
Short but fun game and story
We're glad you liked it, thank you for playing!
That transition from the tutorial was SICK. And Amy coming in saving the day with the three consecutive grenade is badass af 🤣
That limited colour palette and block colouring art style really does ties this whole spy theme together, the sfx choices was just the cherry on top. The minigames with countdowns into a thriller action VN is just *chefs kiss*. Really include us players into the hurry scenes there, makes it super engaging to play! And somehow it reminded me of the days I used to binge the whole Shift Heads series... i think it has that same kind of fun urgency.
The countdown was slightly too forgiving imo. If it was just a bit shorter the countdown would have pull so much more attention and hence have more pressure to it. But that's pretty nick-picking stuff because the overall game experience is great. Would love to see more!!!
Thank you for the comment and it would likely get fixed if this vertical slice ever get made into the real deal
thanks for the feedback! Very glad for that intro too, it turned out as close to what I envisioned in my head as possible. I'm also glad you liked the 3 nades the frantic but cool pin pulling sequence is what we were going for
I do agree with the timer, potentially lower time, with accessibility settings to increase the timer for less difficulty... hmm, maybe in a spiritual successor? :D
spiritual successor sounds like a funny cover for that setting hahaha I'm all for it!
The moody noir art and point-and-click storytelling make the mystery feel stylish right away!
Thank you for the comment
Hehe thanks!
Short but fun. Would buys this game if it had full release. Great job
thats quite high praise! thank you very much
Honestly, huge props to the artists. The art made the games super clear and easy to follow.
The art and music were both on point, the story was engaging, and the games that you had were fun, if not balanced on the easy side.
It felt like a very early version of dispatch. I'd have liked it to be longer.
Thanks for the game
Thank you very much
yeah definitely, in a longer version, I can envision the story directly tying to the assembling gameplay, and giving you different outcomes
