The screen of your computer is your planet. At the start of each level, you'll have an element, essential for the initiation of life. You just have to drag & drop it into a zone. The element have to be feeded to get enough powerfull in order to finish the level. You know if your near of the goal if the background color is completely set up.

Hi @purpledartfrog, thanks for the advice, i'll apply this for all of my next games projects :) Tutorial is something i didn't think firstly and i understand that this can frustate the player to having no indication of what he have to do and how ... well it's by making mistakes that we learn :p

Nice work ! I have to do the game twice to be sure that when I have completed the water the game end and quit, in place of crashing. You should add a "quit" button for your next entries ;)

@corentin-sabiaux no worries ... it's only my third (this one) entry that I actually did an ok one myself :wink:

Hi @nakami, thanks for your comment :) The use of "Application.Quit()" have be done due to an emergency case : the run out of time. With a better time management for the next entries, I'll add this "quit" button for sure ;)

I had difficulties catching the shapes. And at the end, I'm not sure if the game crashed or if that mechanic was intended. I'd like to see more content, I didn't feel like accomplishing anything in the game. Maybe the game really crashed and there is more content after water?

Hi @sprotex, thanks for your feedback :) ! Really sad to heard you didn't enjoy the game :/ The shapes colliders are put on the same scale of her sprites, maybe it was better to enlarge them ? About the end, as i said in responce on previous comments, i was having to erase some levels and ideas for fits my game into the developement time the jam accords to us. Due to that, i do an emergency Application.Quit() after the level 2 for having something playable and that can be proposed online. It's probably why you have feel this :(

Nice start! If you add more content to the game, that would be great.
I like mechanics and the idea, this game can become a great game after a little more work ;)
