Dash build goated
Wow, let's goooo. Thank you for playing
Nicely done!!! I think combination of audio and gameplay are fitting 10/10. I empressed about water shader and other models, u did well!
It will be nice maybe to add left/right movement, so it will be more options to swim over the pool. Also i think adding gamepad/touchscreen support will lead this game to the next level.
You did a great job, good luck with this project!
I will be glad if u check my game too <3
It's a simple, fun game. Theme fits.
The second hoop doesn't seem to work. One run just abruptly ended, whilst another just kept going. You could have used some of kenneys 3d assets. If you'd set the game in the sea, instead of a swimming pool, you could have added dangers like sharks.
All in all, it's a great start and there are lots of things you could add to it.
Thanks for the feedback, I didn't manage to finish a lot of things for this game but I wanted to submit for my first GMTK.
But I am already working on the feature and I will push a build after the jam rating period ends.
Coold idea and nice art! You should try to develop this further after the event, when you have more time :D
Cool, happy you liked it. I am definitely going to develop this further after the jam.
Very fun! Well done!
Game felt really great to play. Good job!!
Really cool water shader!
I like the roguelike idea and the games premise, I do wish the characters had a model other than a bean, and I feel like there's no "Loose" condition.
Theres is nothing stopping me from never getting the upgrades and just winning anyway, not that it's something that every game needs, but this game would benefit greatly if there was a loose condition like number of people drowned, exedra.
One last thing, why is my buoy still visible when I have grabbed someone? At first, I thought there was going to be an upgrade to grab multiple people, but alas I never got one.
Thanks for the feedback and advices. There is no lose state at the moment because I didn't manage to implement everything but I just wanted to submit.
Very good style, fun funky music, but the movement and knowing whats going on and being confused by why i could only grab one person set me back. Once i figured it out, it was very enjoyable! 4.2/5 stars for me!
I like the art and the music. The controls are a bit awkward since usually with wasd controls, w is up and s is down, not w is forward and s is backward based on mouse position.
smooth gameplay and fun!
Thank you. Happy that you liked it.
Really fun, the character controls like a dream.
Thank you, I am happy my character handles well.
