The gas canister fills at an obscenely slow rate, and the nozzles become immediately unusable after you use them (even if you only fill the can a little bit). I didn't really know what to do with the axe\/trees, and then I guess at some point I failed the game without realizing it because eventually I came back and the screen state was failed?? Very cool how fleshed out the visuals looked, and the diegetic start screen is a very nice touch, but definitely could have spent some more time fleshing out the core mechanics of the game.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"legavroche","author_uid":"1007275","time":"2020-04-25T05:10:36Z","epoch":1587791436,"modified":1587791436,"text":"The gameplay isn't bad, but it is brutally difficult. It seems cutting down the trees only give me 1 plank each, so I assume I need to get near 40 to protect the pc from the rain. In the game's current state, I'm not sure if that is doable. Like others mentioned, I also wasn't able to refill my canister at the same rock upon using it. I see a lot of promise in this game though, and would like to revisit it. I do wanna finish by saying that this is very impressive as a compo entry, and I hope you continue refining it.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Jerm","author_uid":"1003563","time":"2020-04-25T05:38:55Z","epoch":1587793135,"modified":1587793135,"text":"This game was awesome! Simple idea but well executed and quite well balanced with a good level of difficulty. I had to play it a few times to pick it up, but eventually figured it out and managed to get to the end.

It has a few quirks and bugs, but overall I liked it.\n\nIt might be a good idea to somehow show the player that their canister is filled. For the first couple of tries i thought the \"fuel source recharging\" was the progress of my canister filling, so I just stood there and waited for it to fill (up to whole 5%, I'm not a patient man :) ).\n\nDo the planks placed on the roof disappear when it rains? I've placed about 6-7 planks on the roof, went to get some more. When I was cutting more trees, it rained for a short while. When I returned to build more planks, I had to start all over again, like they've all disappeared.\n\nGathering only one plank from a tree seems overly limiting. It stretches out the game unnecessarily. Also, since you can carry a lot of planks at the same time, it doesn't really add anything to the difficulty, since you can cut all the trees you want and then place all the boards when you have enough of them.\n\nSpeaking of tree cutting, when you do that the game slows down a lot. Are you spawning the planks when a tree is cut down? It might be a good idea to have them pre-spawned, but disabled until needed.\n\nOverall it's a nice entry. I haven't managed to finish it yet, but I'm going to try a few more times. I'm enjoying playing it. ;)","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld46\/199986-77b4f41140382d962d0d638ac6c3428a.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/ping78.itch.io\/serveryard","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/1v3gnxubvf3h233\/LD46.zip?dl=0","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"62577","g_author":"1001031","g_event":"LD46","g_eventkey":"77","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"277078","g_title":"Serveryard","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"855","g_commentcount":"14","g_site2_node_id":"199986","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"199986","n_urlkey":"277078","n_parent":"176557","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/46\/serveryard","n_slug":"serveryard","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"1031","n_created":"1587345196","n_modified":"1589037683","n_version":"638552","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":199986,"parent":176557,"superparent":9,"author":1031,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2020-04-20T01:15:12Z","created":"2020-04-20T01:13:16Z","modified":"2020-05-09T15:21:23Z","version":638552,"slug":"serveryard","name":"Serveryard","body":"![rain](\/\/\/raw\/704\/z\/33d87.png)  \n![CGtSM](\/\/\/raw\/704\/z\/3345e.png)\n### Controls:\n> **E** - interact  \n> **Mouse Wheel** or **1**, **2**, **3** - switch \"weapons\"  \n> **Left Mouse Button** - use axe  \n> **Shift** - move somewhat faster  \n> **Space** - launch into space  \n> **WASD** - teleport a short distance  \n> **F1**, **F3**, **F5**, **F7**, ... - main menu \\*  \n> **F2**, **F4**, **F6**, **F8**, ... - toggle full screen \\*  \n\n> \\* **F13** and above are not supported.  \n\n## Note: You do NOT need to wait to fill the canister!","meta":{"author":[1031],"link-01":"https:\/\/ping78.itch.io\/serveryard","link-01-tag":[42336],"link-02":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/1v3gnxubvf3h233\/LD46.zip?dl=0","link-02-tag":[42332],"cover":"\/\/\/content\/704\/z\/3321f.png"},"path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/46\/serveryard","parents":[1,5,9,176557],"love":0,"notes":14,"notes-timestamp":"2020-05-08T06:53:31Z","grade":{"grade-01":22,"grade-02":22,"grade-03":22,"grade-04":22,"grade-05":22,"grade-06":22,"grade-07":19,"grade-08":19},"magic":{"cool":131.93713430042,"feedback":0,"given":35.25,"grade":21.25,"grade-01-average":3.025,"grade-01-result":855,"grade-02-average":2.7,"grade-02-result":918,"grade-03-average":3,"grade-03-result":759,"grade-04-average":3.65,"grade-04-result":542,"grade-05-average":3.625,"grade-05-result":395,"grade-06-average":2.8,"grade-06-result":642,"grade-07-average":2.382,"grade-07-result":690,"grade-08-average":2.676,"grade-08-result":879,"smart":-22.150105583848}},"text":"![rain](\/\/\/raw\/704\/z\/33d87.png)  \n![CGtSM](\/\/\/raw\/704\/z\/3345e.png)\n### Controls:\n> **E** - interact  \n> **Mouse Wheel** or **1**, **2**, **3** - switch \"weapons\"  \n> **Left Mouse Button** - use axe  \n> **Shift** - move somewhat faster  \n> **Space** - launch into space  \n> **WASD** - teleport a short distance  \n> **F1**, **F3**, **F5**, **F7**, ... - main menu \\*  \n> **F2**, **F4**, **F6**, **F8**, ... - toggle full screen \\*  \n\n> \\* **F13** and above are not supported.  \n\n## Note: You do NOT need to wait to fill the canister!","title":"Serveryard"}
