try playing my game too no fake feedback

Submitted

Your game is so unique in terms of concept and to be honest it took me a while to understand how to play it properly and when i did I found the gameplay actually fun but since it took me a lot of time to understand even with the tutorial, an in game tutorial may be the way to teach new players but other than that its a super great game.

I would also love to hear your honest feedback towards my game and thanks in advance. :D

Submitted

This game is pretty cool, this is the first game I played here that is isometric so its definitely something new for me. It did took me a while to make sense of everything but eventually I got there.

Well done on this game, it really shows the effort and polished you have done to it

Submitted

The game has a really interesting concept, but it took me a while to grasp everything. Even with the tutorial, I spent a good amount of time trying to fully understand how the systems worked.

Submitted

The graphics and the animations are very good.  

Submitted

this game is sick, gets a little game but still great job 

If you could take a look at my game too it would mean a lot :)

Submitted

The game feels heavy on my pc, needs a bit of optimization, but overall it's good, i like the music in this game

Submitted

Sorry I tried my best but I really didn't understand the gameplay. I just kept moving the cube around until I had a message telling that I am in control and many buttons displayed on the screen. Nothing happened when I was clicking each of them.

Submitted

your game was fun and really good! :)

Submitted

Pretty complex game, but very original! Integrating Conway's game of life is an awesome idea. The graphics give me flash game vibes which I love!

Submitted

It feels intuitive to control from the beginning, and taps into that extremely satisfying Splatoon/Powerwash Simulator loop of very clear visual progression towards victory. The one tiny thing I would alter slightly is the relationship between the background colour and the claimed/unclaimed tiles, as I feel like the dark blue is taking some of the energy away from the play area, even a slight vignetting on the corners could enhance it. Maybe even a slight height randomness on the red blocks could add to your virtual 3d grid vibe. I enjoyed this, congrats on the submission!

Good Game Like the music, 

if you want you can play my game and give your feedback it will matter a lot.

This has really cool concept, and fitting art and music, good job!

Anyway please give my game a try too if u dont mind :D

Submitted

Game design is nice! Good music too. I also liked the UI. It would have been better if it offered a single player mode. 

Submitted

Addicitve game, and cool effects and colors, nice job!

Submitted

Hmm interesting game but idk pretty much what to do 🙃

If you got a min give a try to mine game  if you want to (play it on your phone)

Submitted

Interesting game idea!
Good luck!

Submitted

Really unique idea, but the actual gameplay felt pretty boring because you just walk around the map taking control points and there aren't any other players online, when the game was clearly designed with a lot of concurrent players in mind. If there were more players it'd probably be a pretty fun game though.

Submitted

Pretty good game! the multiplayer style can be both a great and not so great idea for jams, because without other players, the game feels pretty empty, but other than that amazing game!
