Hi, I came from Reto video, really liked the concept of the game and really liked the art style, one idea for helping the getting stuck situations is that once per level you may remove 1 domino piece from the board, maybe that could also cost 1 Heart (but I dont see that necessary), it is just a suggestion, I hope that you get success with this game and that you keep expanding on the idea :D
Thank you! Super grateful for retro’s video and the feedback he and his viewers like yourself have provided :) That is a good suggestion about freeing up space on the board, I had played with something like that, but couldn’t come up with a good solution and left it as it is. If I update the game with some balance tweaks in the near future, allowing the player to mitigate the cluttering of the board is a high priority. Thanks again for playing!
Thank you! This was made using the love2d framework https://love2d.org/ It's a free and open-source framework that makes it super easy to program games that work on Windows/Mac/iOS without having to worry about all the low-level stuff. It uses the lua scripting language and doesn't have any kind of visual editor like Unity or Unreal. I personally see this as a plus, because I don't want to worry about any engine specific editor quirks, I just want to drag art assets into a folder, and write code to move them around. This is my first project released using it, and I definitely plan to use it more moving forward. It's not the ideal solution for everyone, but I love it. Thank you again for playing the game : )
Totally awesome and so cerebral. Got my first win! Wish I took a screenshot, I had the 2 damage draw, the 'place anything near gravestones', the even-odd matching domino, and one more I can't remember.
The upgrades were really clever and empowering, with some of them leading to really cool domino chains and double kills. I really liked this game!
