Great game! I loved it.
Here are my thoughts.
#1: Overkill damage should be beneficial(50% towards next enemy or something similar)
#2: There should be some more clarity around some things(Ability to hover over keywords especially)
Also, what is the bonus you get from putting multiple of the same sticker on the same thing?
I don't exactly understand Frogs, it seems like there is only 1 instance of them per sticker and it can't create more so if the one dies then that sticker is useless for the rest of that ball?
#3: Track and show damage with each sticker(and base number)
#4: I think mid-run unlockables would be fun(Like Spring could be a good unlockable even) that have prerequisites to reward certain paths.(a Pure dice, one shotting an enemy, etc.)
#5: The ability to increase the speed. The speed is fine early, but as you go later it starts to feel really slow. So I would just add a 2x and 4x option.
#6: It could be fun to have a rare or expensive ability to skip placing a sticker, reroll your sticker options or replace an already existing sticker.
love it, feels a lot like a hempuli game with the artstyle
The art style is ABSOLUTELY immaculate hot damn
Sadly I failed in level 31, but this was great. Hilarious timekiller!
What, me too!
Hot dog, such an inspiring game, thank you ✨
really cool game, very polished and I love all the tiny details. my suggestions would be:
also money printer + telescope is good strat :D
This was a lot of fun! We enjoyed playing it on stream:
Hi, I played your game and made a video about it. Just wanted to let you know.
I beat 20 levels with no strategy at all.
Random chaos in place of game design.
Trajectile > Peggle > This
20 levels is horrible. You should be gaining balls until you hit mid-20s.
really great game, but it really needs some tutorial. I like exploring and figuring stuff out, but for some people its way too random and confusing.
Hi! I just whanted to nou is this game geting enij updates?
i love this! i cant wait for the full realease
this game is peak excited for full release
btw you get softlocked if you don't have anymore dice slots after a round
thank you for the feedback! Someone else also encountered that bug, but I couldn't reproduce it. Does that happen when you finish a level with the last ball you have? idk where does that extra stickers comes haha
that's because of the fact that you are forced to put a sticker
这是用Constuct3制作的嘛?居然能只占用这么小的容量?这些图形都是位图字体?还是有别的方式制作的?厉害!!
好的想法,好的制作,好的优化。
感觉可以让弹射速度逐渐加快,前面骰子少的时候动画有点太快了。
最终版能叠得更爽就好了。
期待最终作品,已加入愿望单。
Was this made with Constuct3? How could it only occupy such a small capacity? Are all these graphics bitmap fonts? Is there another way to make it? Amazing!!
Good ideas, good production, good optimization.
It feels like the ejection speed can be gradually increased. When there are fewer dice in the front, the animation is a bit too fast.
It would be great if the final version could be buff stacking more smoothly.
Looking forward to the final work.!It has been added to the wishlist.
thank you for the feedback! yes, I use C3 and most of the fonts are bitmap. I think I used text object for the sticker explanation popup since it has more bbcode options
I would love to be able to skip putting a sticker
thanks for the feedback, added to the list!
I would love to help make a brazillian portuguese translation to the game. I think that there's a huge playerbase potential over here. For example, i have a lot of friends that would love this game but unfortunately don't speak english. (I'd do it for free)
maybe that's a bit weird to ask
thank you so much!! I'm not currently planning any localization but if I need it in the future, I'll definitely let you know
In the upper right, there’s a bracket that flips into an aiming reticle, but it doesn’t flip back. Does that do anything?
I’ve come close to losing a couple times but there’s always a ridiculously lucky streak that saves me. Is that coded or does it just work out like that?
it would be cool if we could see how many projected bounces were lined up as a total. It’s hard to count and sometimes you can’t tell if it will retrace even more.
-V-
thank you for playing!
the bracket thing is the fullscreen button but it might not work depending on the browser or device
it's not coded and glad to hear that happens haha
thanks for the feedback! I've added to the checklist :)
Just beat the game, loved every second of it. Hope to see more stages, and more stickers! I wishlisted it on steam can't wait to see more.
congrats!! thank you for playing and for the wishlist! <3
insanely addicting game, been playing it non-stop my favourites are the frog and drunk driver builds. Only thing that could make this even better would be a linux native version
thank you for playing and for the feedback!!
one of the best games on itch in my opinion. lots of details and beautiful design
thank you so much!!
died at 33 :(
fun game tho
so close :D thank you for playing!
Greit game! Very adicting!10/10
thank you 🤍
(:
can you make a cheat mode so you can pick any set of stickers in any order and you can choose the level please I wanna try an all detective run
thanks for the idea! I will see if I can add a mod like that for the full version
insanely polished and fun you should be arrested for not charging money
thank you for playing!!
This game is so fun, I finally just beat it, a high score of 42k at the end, I cant wait for the full version!
thank you!! <3
Will the full version be released here also? I've personally been trying to buy off Steam more often nowadays.
yes! it'll be released on itch too :)
<3 Awesome news! It was really fun!
this is so satisfying to play, the animations, the sounds, and everything is so responsive
thank you! glad you enjoyed it!
Addicting. Had to stop myself.
thank you for playing! :D
Awesome game, can play for hours!I'll wait for the full version!!! :P
thank you! glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
btw, your game inspired me to create my own game! But I need to finish making my another game first :/ (Why do I get ideas for other games while I'm making another game 😭😭)
happens to the best of us :'D
awesome game, honestly peak. An annoying bug is that sometimes the game freaks out and the textures and text gets all bonkers. hope it gets fixed :P
thank you!! added to the bug list :)
You had me holding my pee for like half an hour because I couldn't stop playing. Great game! :D
haha sorry, thank you for playing!! :D
hey bilge! i have streamed on twitch before but i stopped, however i’ve recently decided to rekindle the channel and i wanted to make a new overlay for it, and i’ve been massively inspired by the art style of this game to make it! would it be ok if i dm’ed you on discord so it’d be easier to talk about how to do it (mainly just the style as i’m pretty unfamiliar with construct)?
i can probably try to do it in construct since that’s what you used for this, also there’s a twitch chat plugin so it is possible
hope youre ok with this!! :)
hey! glad to hear the style inspired you! I don't know anything about twitch overlays but as for the style there's no real trick to it in c3. I made the art in aseprite but any paint software would work just fine
this is like crack to my ADHD brain, the sounds and the visuals are perfect stim fuel. Love it <3
thank you! 🤍
Love the game but i'd love it more if there was a way to actually build dice rather than just picking randomly, maybe a shop or some kind of way to build up a specific kind of sticker based build idk
thank you for playing and for the feedback!! there will be a shop in the full game :)
This is awesome :)
ok i dont understand how i get points, the dice is in 1 but i win 9 points.. why??? please help jajajajaj Have you played Ballionaire?
haha sorry, it definitely needs a proper tutorial :D yes, I've played it!
It's really fun but I have no idea what's going on
thank you for playing! :D
game was really fun, and time-consuming (I lost in the end 💔)
thank you for playing <3
found a soft lock. if you beat the level and you already have all of the dice filled, it makes you put one down even though its all full. cant to anything
actually I don't think this is just for beating the level
thank you so much for the report!! I will fix it ASAP
Played a couple runs, and it's pretty fun and easy to learn! I've sent you a DM on Twitter and hope to see the game develops further.
thank you for playing!!
Oh right, a little feedback during hovering at stickers. Highlight symbols in another color to see which symbols it has synergy too.
