How did you make this game? What software did you use, etc?
The game was made using Godot Engine. I also used other free software for audio and visuals including Audacity, LMMS and Krita.
very nice experience!! i was startled by the boss haha. excellent outro song
I appreciate that! Sorry about the boss :D
I am interested to know how you make your games? Do you have somewhere where you talk about that at all? Thanks!
I mostly make my games solo with some help from friends. Unfortunately I haven't got the time to make talks or tutorials about my process. I use Godot Engine for my games and you can find a lot of good turtorials for it from Youtube.
This game was vary fun, I played it 2 times and on the second time I tried to speedrun it to try to beat the boss as fast as I could. I managed to do it in only 12 mins and 19 seconds. I challenge anyone to beat that.
Great game!
Wow, that's impressive! I'm happy you like the game.
Yeah this needs a full release with more levels, amazing game.
I see what I can do ;)
Placed so many turrets game lagged and almost died. 10/10 would do again
Good job with the update. I love that new credits song!
Thank you for trying the update! I had a lot of fun making the song :D
this game is awesome i wish there was an endless mode though
Much obliged! You can continue kind of endlessly after the pumpkin. What kind of endless mode would you like to see?
It's a great little game but I am really missing the option to invert Y axis.
Thanks for the feedback. I shall add that to our to-do list.
Great Game! The stun trap seems to occasionally make enemies immune for a time if multiple hit at the same time. It was seen with Carrot enemies
Thanks for letting us know. I will look into this bug.
10/10 Frame drops at around ONLY 300 sentry traps tho :[
We try to optimize the game more in the future :)
how do i spend skill points?
Skill points can be spent at the bulletin board near the tomatoes.
i hope you flesh this out into a full game one day that would be sick or just use some ideas from this game in one of your next projects
I appreciate that. We do have some plans to develop the game further.
This has one of the most addicting gameplay loops of any game I've ever played. So happy to hear that more content is coming soon.
Great, but needs more endgame content
Thanks for playing. I see you have automated your farm :D
We are planning on releasing more content for the game soon.
Yeah dude I would love to see this turned into a full game. I had so much fun with the core game loop.
We'll see what we can do ;)
Ahah, I did that too.
Seems really fun, but I'm getting stuck in the shop almost every time. Pressing the WIN key doesn't bring back the mouse at all.
Happens in both the downloaded and the web app version.
Thank you for the feedback. We are currently working on a patch for the game and we hope release it soon.
Turns out if I use alt tab or win key to bring back the mouse it doesn't show in the app. But if I hover over the buttons in the shop while out of the game window using alt tab or win, it will still register my click on the button.
Loved it. Very fun.
Appreciated.
This is a beautiful little gem. Would love to see it expanded with more maps, weapons, story, etc.
Thank you. I hope we have time to develop the game further.
Soft-locking bug:
I played the downloaded/zipped version of this. Any time I would pause during the frog-buy menu, the game would eat my mouse, and I was unable to continue playing.
Thanks for letting us know! We will fix this after the game jam is over.
you can press the windows key, put your mouse over the leave shop button, click and continue playing!
Aw, man. I was streamin this, havin' fun, and tried just about everything but that. I'd have never thought to press the Windows Key. Thanks!
