I played your game last night and I feel bad that I wasn't good enough to really play it. U_U Sorry. But I guess my critique would be that it as an interesting premise that could have benefited from some play-testing. Also maybe check out some Unity tutorials for lighting, since even a simple directional light would have made it a lot easier to make sense of things.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"BeveL","author_uid":"1099157","time":"2018-08-15T21:07:27Z","epoch":1534367247,"modified":1534367799,"text":"@rebecca-kremer I don't care if you did not play my game for a long time, I am still very happy that you actually\u200b played it! I will definitely\u200b take your advice and ask some of my friends to playtest my game before publishing it. Fyi, I actually\u200b did have a directional light in the scene, but I should put more lights in my game anyway ;p. I made a video, proving that the whole game could be done. It is a bit low quality, but it's the best my crappy computer can do. I will definitely\u200b heed your advice\u200b for the next Ludum Dare!

Also I felt like I had no time to complete objectives (for example I was asked to collect 4 objects in 1 second, but I couldn't even see the objects in that time, let alone reach them!).\n\nIt seems like you probably over-scoped with this project, in future try to remember that quality wins out over quantity in game jams, and making smaller simpler games with one or two levels that has great polish to the gameplay as well as look and feel are often better received. I don't doubt that you worked hard on this project but it's clear that you needed some playtesting feedback during it's development. I hope you continue to make games and come back for the next jam having learned a lot from this one!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"BeveL","author_uid":"1099157","time":"2018-08-15T23:21:31Z","epoch":1534375291,"modified":1534375291,"text":"@historymaker118 Thanks for the feedback!
