TAMAGROW by gibrel

[raw]
made by gibrel for LD34 (JAM)
This is TAMAGROW!!!!

An ill programed dumb game made in less than 24 hours and (almost) alone.

Thanks for Lambada Sueca for the game idea and Raf Mandwuff for the lovely dino.

=)

Ps.: As Ghen suggested, created an itch.io page for the game. Now is true Web. =))

Edited: Forgot to put instructions in game, so let's go:
Help to grow your dinosaur by accepting his ideas to tend him.
He might want to play ball, eat a hamburger or go into a rampage destroying buildings. Accept or reject the idea before it fades. The score is proportional to how much he grew in 100 seconds of game. Good luck!

Don't be hard on yourself.
I could not find time to put things together in order to visually aid the player in their decision making.
An status bar would be awesome for the player to follow up and see his decision making a difference in the character growth.
Yep, a nice and lively HUD.

The concept of the game is nice, but the player needs more feedback to know what is happening, a counter from 1 to 100 secs or a time bar to understand it. Try to fix it and the game will improve a lot ;-)

Fun little idea for a game. Since one could press the red and green buttons many times while the dino was presenting its ideas, it would have been really nice to get some feedback on that it had at all accepted my suggestion. Also to make it more playable, if there had been some sort of reaction from the dinosaur so the player can learn what was helping growth or not it would be nice. And a meter showing the time left (maybe one should get a little extra time each time you answer a correct answer). Just some suggestions.

I was hoping the dino growing at the end of the game. I get 765 :D
I like the idea but the game need more feedback, I don't really know what is happening with the decisions.
Anyways, good job! ;)

I was really confused by this game, I couldn't figure out if my button presses were doing anything. I like the concept, but you should have some kind of indication for that =P

It was kinda nice, but I couldn't quite understand what I was doing. Some visual feedback would be very nice. Maybe a check or X over the option when you press the button until it fades away would be nice, too.

I think seeing some visual or text feedback after a decision would be nice.
