I think i discovered a tactic to save more dumplings. Just leave the create near a structure and the black ninjas will have to come around it so you get more time to fight. Nice animations and looks overall. For me the lighting was quite a pain since you could see the shadows appearing and dissapearing. Have you thought about increasing the shadow rendering distance?","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":940067,"author_name":"Congeesetador","author_uid":"congeesetador","epoch":1682987493,"text":"I loved playing this game!

The graphics are pretty fantastic as others have said, especially the environmental graphics.\n\nIt took me a while to figure out what exactly I needed to do to win. At first it seemed like the main goal was to simply avoid the ninjas as much as possible, which seemed difficult to do and made the attack and dash feel pointless. In particular, at one point I lost because I had left the dumplings on the ground to try to fight the ninjas, and so I thought that leaving them on the ground was just generally a bad strategy.\n\nLater I managed to figure out that the ninjas were actually stealing the dumplings directly from the package, whether it was on the ground or I was carrying it. This made the game make a lot more sense, as now I knew I had to either avoid the ninjas entirely or fight them off before they got to me or shortly after they stole a dumpling. This made the game a lot more fun, as now I actually understood what was going on, and it meant I could actually productively use the dash mechanic, which is a fun mechanic to use.\n\nOverall, fun game!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":980045,"author_name":"jackboz","author_uid":"jackboz","epoch":1684164138,"text":"@honey-pony Thank you for your feedback and time you spent to figure out the elements of the core mechanic!","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":981483,"author_name":"MistaGiggles","author_uid":"mistagiggles","epoch":1684349762,"text":"Very nice game, impressed all of the art\/sound was made during the jam.
