TinyCon by Briibot

[raw]
made by Briibot for Ludum Dare 56 (JAM)

Welcome to Tinycon!

Marbles: Launch a marble to knock the others out of the ring. Claim 4 or outscore your opponent to win! How to play: 1. Click one of your marbles on the bottom-left of the screen 2. Click again to aim a shot. The aim line will follow your cursor and increase in power the further you go 3. Click once more to shoot your marble. Try and push another out of the ring! If your own marble rebounds out, the opponent will score 4. Once your opponent shoots and all characters walk off the board, select another marble from the bottom-left to shoot again.

If you win, you may get a chance to claim a new character! If you see a gold circle in the top left, click it to choose your reward!

THIS IS NOW MY FAVORITE GAME. It's so cute, I love gatcha games that are cozy, makes me want to have this in my mobile phone.

Got a little freeze bug in the game where you drop balls but it was smooth the rest of the time!

Great game. Very ambitious for a jam. I'm a big fan of isometric graphics and these look fantastic! Love the TinyCon concept and the different elements in the convention hall, the choice of marbles etc. The hey marble game mechanics works well. The lack of any sounds is a shame but obviously you had a lot on your plate. Even a few small sounds for the marble game would of gone a long way. Great job, hope you keep working on it.

Nice work! Very well done visuals. Looks amazing. The game cound have definately benefited from some audio though. It feels a bit empty without it. Other than that, its great!

Small tip: You can enable a fullscreen button in your games settings on itch.io. Without it players are stuck at the native resolution, which is quite small since it's a pixel art game.

The art style is really well done, the variety of marbles was nice. And as others have said, a few sounds would have really elevated it I think.

the game is just wonderful and so cozy! The isometric style graphics are fantastic, and the TinyCon concept and ball mechanics are perfectly implemented! 🎉 A little sound design would add to the atmosphere, but it doesn't spoil the overall impression. 💖 Great job, team! 🚀

Took some time to figure out- I think some tooltips or text feedback to explain what's going on would go a long way- but when it clicked it was very enjoyable. Very ambitious, nice work!

Cute premise, cute designs and the game feels feature complete. This nailed what I feel is a very important principle of making a game in a short time: **what's there is good and complete**. You got the important parts down, they're polished very well and the game leaves a really nice impression! :heart: Only thing I noted for improvement is sound. :smile:

Nice graphics, like the gacha animation, it was fun to play :smile:
Got a bug on my first run where I couldn't score the last ball in the minigame where you drop balls, one got stuck on top of others :eyes:

Love the visual, it's so cute and I adore the gacha machine animation. It took me a while to figure out what to do but I'm starting to get a hang of it. Like others have already said, some sound effect would help build up the atmosphere even more.
