I looove this one! Running around grabbing scrap and bringing it back is just so fun, I am very much your target audience. You ever play diaries of a spaceport janitor? If you decide to work on this game more, I think fluctuating value of the scrap would be really cool! I like the consequences of broken limbs too. This one has potential c:

Hey, thanks for playing! I have never heard of or played Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor, I looked at the trailer and I do see some similar things, I'll have to check it out sometime (If I can finish my library if that is.). Scrap value does fluctuate depending on the type, but it only fluctuates the total scrap value for each type, not each individual scrap has a different value. I don't know if I will keep working on this project as I will be participating in the Metroidvania Month Jam which is in like 10 days. I will try my best to add a few improvements before then, but after i'm done with the Metroidvania Month Jam it may be possible I continue to work on this project. Anyway, thanks for playing!
Needs an option to skip time when you've returned to spawn point
Actually an interesting take on the jam theme
Congratulations on participating in the first jam! What matters most imo is that the game is completable and we have fun making them

Syrniki QuestThe visuals are great, has that brutal feel to it which is perfect for a scrapyard game. Nice job on the character controller too, it felt good running around and climbing hills, paired with the sound effects.
I did feel like I was breaking limbs way too easily though, even when trying to be careful with fall damage. And after the second wave I seemed to lose the ability to sprint. Maybe that was injury related, though.

Dirt PoorHi thanks for playing and giving feedback! Some other testers and players said the injurys are a bit harsh, I will most likely tone the injury height a bit. And yes you do lose the ability to jump and sprint if you don't pay injury costs, this may be communicated better in future updates (If I can get myself to do updates if that is).
