Hi ! I didn't find the solution to your puzzle (yet) so I think I'm missing something. I just can't figure a way to put the robot in the machine or accelerate the coffee machine. I have seen I can carry all those (and the teleporters) and put them somewhere else but I think more guidance as to how the puzzles work would help.

Apart from that I like your game, the teleporters / moving / carrying mechanics are nice, the movement is smooth, you made your own visuals and I can see you're learning (you're more advanced than I am) but despite that they look nice and cute :)

Maybe I would have added a music loop but I understand the tic-tac is important to understand that "time is relative" so players must hear it. So I'm not sure about my advice.

On the whole, clean and sweet game ! I'm just disappointed at me for not being able to find a solution to the puzzle hahah.

ps: COFFEEEEEEE <3

[JAM] Untitled Guinea Pig Game

SaadTheGladDeveloper42 days ago

Hey! Thanks a lot for the feedback! A little tip for the solution is to think of time relativity/time dilation. Have you seen interstellar? "1 hour here is 7 years on earth"? This is basically it. If you try the game again I hope that'll be enough to solve it haha.

I would've loved to add more polish like you said but I just didn't have the time. I wanted to add a 3rd puzzle but the time to implement got the better of me.

i won! like the puzzle a lot i think it would be nice if it had some timer to make it look more polished. great job!

Thank you! I deliberately didn't put a timer cuz I wanted people to intuit that from the ticking noises in the bg :)

Cool concept, not bad!

Cool concept although It was kind of confusing, the portals didn't speed up the coffee machine or slow down the robot's timer, I could also just be missing something

The portals don't speed up the objects within them, but if you place an object inside a world while you're in another, then it becomes clear.

Super cute. I'd like more feedback on some things, like a timer bar on the robot or a fill bar on the student so I know that what I'm doing is having an affect. Took me a minute to realize the chime noise was telling me I succeeded in a task lol
Great job!

Really enjoyed having to think through this puzzle. The time difference in the portals was a neat concept. I'm not quite sure if the green portal was meant to be used? I managed to complete it with only using the red one. Great job with this submission

Submitted

SaadTheGladDeveloper46 days ago

Thank you! I intended for the green portal to be used for solving the coffee puzzle but I guess since time doubles in the main world while in the red world that still works. Multiple solutions I guess haha

MattnChzSubmitted47 days ago(+1)

Cool puzzles, really like that you can interact with the portals like any other object. It took me a while to understand that each portal had a different passage of time.

Thank you! Yeah I intended for you to sit down and figure it out slowly :)

very nice thing with the portals i figured how to insert the robot but after that i just dont know what to do and also you can stuck forever in a dimension if you take the green portal in the red portal but overall game felt nice would be perfect to have some more animations and sfx

Interesting idea, but I can't figure out if the web build was bugged for me. No matter what I tried I was also a bit too slow to save the robot... I could also just be dumb 😁

DOOM and DEATHPACT

SaadTheGladDeveloper48 days ago

It's not bugged, you're just supposed to go into the portals near you with the robot to slow down time for it, Interstellar style :)

I really like this game! It was short but the game in general was well made. It makes me wonder what kind of story/scenarios or puzzles you could've made if you had more time to develop the game.

I think I missed the wildcard part, i didn't see any 3D objects in the game

Submitted

SaadTheGladDeveloper48 days ago(+1)

Thank you so much! Yeah I spent most of my time figuring out the systems and implementing them that by the time I was done I only had time for two puzzles lol.

The 3D objects are the coffee machine and the terminal. I modelled them in blender and turned them to sprites lol (I guess it's not true 3D haha)
