Great job on the UI, it’s clear and functional (and that’s a hard thing to do!), same goes for the balancing. Gameplay is great fun overall, I loved that you used this type of dungeon map progress that gives player a choice of what to do ! I really could see this being expanded with more unit types, more events etc
To be honest I wasn’t a fan of the graphical style, but that doesn’t matter too much for this type of game, especially when it’s made in a small time frame by one person.
PS : Now I know what you’re talking about; our submissions shares some similarities indeed ;D
Yes unfortunately this is the weakness of this version made for the game jam, haven't had the time to properly balanced the game with all the upgrades, so while some are fun, buying them slows your progress as you have a time limit (which will not be the case if the game was infinitely incremental).
Glad you found it fun, though, that was my primary objective :D
Thanks :)
Yes it is : the average click count for 15mn in my game seems to be ~2000, which helps only a little bit (and is noticeable only in the beginning because it kinda becomes useless).
I get your feeling though, I should have added an upgrade to increase the "value" of the click, but I did not have the time before the end of the jam (and it's a balance issue so to be fair I will not correct it in this version).
Looks like it's more efficient to use clicking to kill rats and extinguish fires (even if the "work" button is appealing :P)
Anyway, it is totally possible : you can reach LVL 100 at 03:30 before the end as far as I know.
Hey,
Thanks for your comment ! :)
That is absolutely the best strategy at the moment unfortunately (taking pressure & maximizing income and work) :P I agree the burnout does not make too much of a difference. Maybe it's not punishing enough on a 15mn duration.
Yes, I should have added some upgrade to raise the click value increasingly, but I didn't by fear of breaking the already-unstable balance of the game :|
Anyways, I'm glad you had fun playing it, hearing that makes it totally worth it to have spent 2 full weeks on this :D
