-Its sometimes hard to distinguish the distractions, for example I lost a few times bc i thought the distraction was the cat when it was in fact the door. Perhaps use a highlighting system?
Sound effects where great too (an ambiant music would have been a cool touch).
I loved the idea and found it really funny, the objets falling in the background add for some fun to the gameplay.
I mixed up the cat and the door distractions at first because the arrows are in a quite similar spot but the sound effects easily makes you understand the sources of distraction.
ps: Why doesn't the snail have a shell ! :)
I'm just a bit disappointed that there's just a simple text at the end, I think showing something like a drawing or a sculpture at the end would be a bit better for the reward ?
Overall, the game is really nice !
Qui symbolise facilement la fragilité pour ce thème mais le contrepied de tourner autour d'entretenir la créativité c'est une super bonne idée, en plus vous avez dû sentir une mise en abîme pendant la jam à résister et rester concentré sur la création !
Le style de rendu est super et le jeu est bien fait, seul bémol c'est effectivement un highlight plus marqué des disrupters aurait p-e été mieux ?
J'ai mis un moment, cela dit, à comprendre que les tableaux venaient du personnage et que les sifflements n'étaient pas des distractions. Mais je n'aurais pas forcément d'idée pour faire mieux donc bon ^^.
On sent que vous avez dû prendre du plaisir à faire le jeu et c'est très agréable, en tout cas.
so far nice entry!
This game is so stressful but i really really liked it!!!
Funny game, impossible to keep creativity flowing in that setting though!
I found that all but the cat distraction went away by a single click. I didn't really notice the cat becoming better with fewer clicks either so my egg had very little chance. However it didn't feel all wrong, it kind of felt like a game were the only possible outcome should be that you fail.
It as a fun moment and the overall experience is good, always careful ready for the next annoyance x)
