Very cool! It makes a lot of sense & is easy to pick up, while at the same time providing a neat challenge. And the art is amazing!!
Really cool and unique concept :)
Great concept, super unique take on the theme and overall very fun! I like the strategy added with the pause feature too, really lets you get a perfect track going
A pretty neat take on the theme. I wish the path making was a bit more responsive to what I wanted (maybe you could change the blade's direction manually?) but you came up with something really cool!
thanks, yeah, I wish too :) it was harder than I thought to solve it. I will probably have to rework it after the jam
This game was a lot of fun! It was a little confusing at first, but once I got the hang of it, it was an entertaining play. The way the cacti are stylized is really nice visually, too!
Really cool idea! Loved using the rocks as bouncing points even tho at first i was confused about them lol, really great graphic, i love it
sometimes tho, the path seems not so natural, and sometimes it even bugged a bit! Same thing happened to the saw, it got stuck on a rock, and did not follow the path anymore :')
Still good concept tho, with more polish could make a great game!
Pretty fun overall! It took me a bit to figure out how to heal, but after I got that down it was pretty good. I really like how I have to change my path into rocks and stuff to turn around and pick things up. Good job!
Great game! Cool take on the theme. I really liked how you have to use the path for different things like killing the cacti and picking up resources. It makes the gameplay feel much more dynamic and strategic. The artwork and sound are nicely done as well. Good job!
Nice job! Really matched the theme and was executed well.
Well done! It was a little frustrating at first that I couldn't change directions manually, but I discovered moving the path into rocks to turn around, and that was a powerful revelation. Really interesting idea with some good depth.
Thanks!
Nice Tower defense in the loop, was a little bit confused why im dying while no cactus is hitting my village.
GG
Thanks for playing! You need to watch out for number of saw teeth you have left and either collect spare parts (bolts) to repair or visit traveling red guy :) I will add some clarification after the jam is over.
unique idea and good arts! resource management is a thing. i liked pick of macleod piece =)
Awesome art, engaging gameplay and a unique idea. The first time I died, I didn't realized that I have to heal myself at all or rather that the cacti are damaging me. Maybe if you expand it introduce the different intractable things one by one. it can be overwhelming at the start. Other than that a really great game.
Good resource management game. Liked the art.
This is a really clever take on the theme! I really enjoyed it. And the art is beautiful! Great work!
Thanks so much! ^^
A really good implemented population and resource management game. I also had some of these ideas when ideating for gmtk. It's really cool to see this actually happen. Even though I my population died couple of times.
Thanks, I am actually surprised that I have not encountered many submission centered around this path following idea. I thought everybody will do that :D Instead most popular seem clones and a lasso.
Very fun idea! Super creative! Took a bit to realize how why i was dying and how i was suppose to heal myself but after that the game was really fun! Great job!
Thanks! Yeah you are not the first one to have trouble with that, I should have made it more clear how you are supposed to heal :/
Really well-made game, also great art!
Fun little game, also the artwork and animations are very good, gj :D
thanks! :)
Nice idea it fit with the theme well and fun for me.
If possible, can you please rate my game and leave a comment too?
Thanks! Sure! I always play games of people who play mine :)
