wow. this is ambitious and well executed

i would say the music you chose for the shop was the worst music choice in any game ever. compared to the other song it hurts my ears. it's disgustingly repetitive and even the part that repeats sounds horrible.

i like the idea of the game in general though there are some obvious things it's missing. but that music made the game unplayable.

Grent responds:

I'm sorry you feel that way! Admittedly, audio was the bit we spent the least amount of time on, so we ended up with some cheesy canned loops. Thanks for playing, anyways!

took me forever to figure out that you split the controls to opposite sides of the keyboard. and it wasn't until long long long long after that that it flashed a little message telling me the controls that disapeared almost instantly.

holy crap you have a lot of polishing to do on this.

Yeah the controls are on the screen after the title but its easy to miss. It was for a game jam so all a bit rushed, will probably polish it up a bit later.

So not being able to control whether I set down or pick up ruined this for me. Absolutely made it not fun at all. I'm at level uhm... it doesn't say the level number. I have six bunnies and it's completely impossible. The spikes kill whatever I've set down and I have to set down at least three on spikes to even interact with the lever.

Terrible game.

Damnit I hate when game developers do combination locks. You all implement it differently.

Don't you know the puzzle is finding the 11-21-7? Not figuring out precisely how you want us to input it.

I tried turning clockwise three times and landing on 11, turning counter clockwise, past 11, onto 21, then clockwise to 7 and that didn't work.

Then I tried the reverse. Then I tried a bunch of other combinations.

Combination lock that is this unforgiving in the exact way you idiotically thought we should input the numbers? Horrible puzzle. Ended the game for me.

I guess games don't teach you controls unless you go into help now. No organic training anymore. Guess that's the new thing.

I'm going to rate you as though it is a thing though and you just overlooked it.

But please let me know if I'm wrong and actually all games force you to go into help to see the controls.

Absolutely hate it. Flappy birds is difficult by its very nature. It doesn't make games fun. You get a zero from me.

Also this game is buggy :)

[The Guardian]

the potency per pixel is high with this one

[MANTRA (Episode One: Foothills)]

incredibly buggy and unpolished.

"it doesn't matter what are you playing at. you must play on to the end"

please have someone check your writing if english is not your first language. it seems every time a game on NG has dialog it fully breaks whatever great atmosphere/immersion it had and makes a laughing stock of itself.

great otherwise.
