Keep up the good work, you have a wonderful project!!!
The storage hunter premise fits the collector theme perfectly. LOVE the game's visuals. It's really enjoyable just looking at the spread of items in each one. Gameplay-wise it does get a little repetitive, especially when the later units all basically being crammed with every item available and the player strategy being reduced down to just a blind 5050 which does not have a lot of consequences. However, that is not to say it's any boring to play. Having a realisitc catalog along with the units' impeccable visuals makes me really immerse myself in the role of a storage hunter and enjoy just the overall mood a lot. Though one issue that did kind of bother me was that there does not seem to be a clear winning or end condition to the game, even when I got UNIT-Y, which I expected to do something special but it's just like any other regular unit aside from the visual joke. If you plan to further work on the game (which I think you really should), I feel like it would help with the current gameplay a lot to instead of just piling items, you should design more varieties of items and HIDE the high value items with each valuable unit only normally having 2-5 of them, that way I think it would truly feel like I'm searching for some exciting treasures in a sea of trash. Also I'd love to see more special units such as Unit-Y and that they do something special. Overall, amazing entry. Great game!
p.s. I was lucky to find the mysterious Unit-Y room among the first ones! Lovely easter egg, shame I could not buy it xD
I found the Unit-Y, but somehow didn't quite get the joke 😅
Overall I earned around 21k - so I played for a bit.
What bugged me the most was the UI design for the "result".
As the cheapest things get added first, it is already cluttered when I arrive at the juicy items.
It would be great to make it as a list:
- 5x Box
- 3x Trophy
...
And also show me the screen and wait for confirmation before continuing so I can enjoy my result :)
