The are was pretty creative too. I got to the edge of the map, but once my character left the screen I couldn't seem to do anything. Not sure if there was anything after that.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Ulisses","author_uid":"1165809","time":"2020-10-13T23:23:25Z","epoch":1602631405,"modified":1602631405,"text":"Very expandable concept.

The dialogue was cool and I liked the music too. I think the little animation for the guy was pretty well done too. It definitely looked like what it was supposed to look like so good job there. An interesting movement mechanic as well. I did have trouble reading the clock to figure out what time it was though. All in all good job on this!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"St1ckY","author_uid":"1182350","time":"2020-10-13T23:31:07Z","epoch":1602631867,"modified":1602631867,"text":"Yes, the music was pretty interesting, but i didn`t get the goal for the game.

Oh and congrats making a (proc-gen?) open-world in gamemaker, that's no easy task! Liked the music a lot. While the audio loop's short it's also really moody and evocative.\n\nGame itself is a little barebones at the moment it seems (which is totally understandable given the time constraints) but I'd love to see this become more fleshed out. It seems you've come up with a really charming little world here, filled with imaginative inhabitants. I think it just needs more interaction now for it all to come to life. For example I'd love to know what those swarms of little pig-creatures are about. Are they enemies, friends or food maybe? \n\nAlso just wanted to mention that \"Q\" for time seemed bugged and didn't fully show on screen.\n\nAnyway really like this, keep us updated if you keep working on it.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"island-jam-2-group-3","author_uid":"1064718","time":"2020-10-23T17:20:36Z","epoch":1603473636,"modified":1603473636,"text":"I didn't get the objective of the game and I just walked some time without finding \"anything\" ^^U I liked the music though.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Toccio94","author_uid":"1026389","time":"2020-10-23T17:53:19Z","epoch":1603475599,"modified":1603475599,"text":"I liked the first part with the chat, the character is very believable and was a nice way to explain the game. The music is nice and the game has its atmosphere of loneliness that I liked. The way you control the character is also interesting.\n\nSadly, the rest of the game seems a bit lacking. I explored a bit but couldn't find anything, my clock also didn't work, at least I guess:\n\n![156.png](\/\/\/raw\/517\/6\/z\/3a64f.png)\n\nAs you can see I don't know how to interpret that thing in the bottom as the timer.\nThe fun thing is that, in the attempt to understand if there was some button I was missing, I used the scroll wheel and discovered that you can zoom out, though I don't know if that was intended since it lags:\n\n![157.png](\/\/\/raw\/517\/6\/z\/3a650.png)\n\nI somehow discovered that with the dash you can destroy the trees (?) but don't know what the purpose is (maybe increase the timer?).\n\nThat said, it's a bit too rough but it's also a compo entry, therefore it's harder to make and I appreciate your effort.
