LudumData

Shigechi's assembly by Gamers Blood Entertainment

[raw]
made by Gamers Blood Entertainment for Ludum Dare 45 (JAM)

We managed to complete literally 5 minutes before the deadline. We were two this time, and we started late in a day so our game isn't as polished. But, The graphics are still somewhat ok and the game is also somewhat enjoyable.

Controls:

WASD - move

C - harvest (when close to object, not yet implemented. Use E.)

E - Pickup

F - using the machine

Q - to drop equipped tools

1-4 - use inventory items

Goal: BUILD THE SPACESHIP!

Go right and left enough to get to the desert to find iron (in the snow) and cactus and sand in the desert.

Once your hunger is at 0, you lose.

Start by making the tools, and then move into using Iron to build the ultimate vehicle. Recipes: You need to finish the first set of tools. Try to put stone and wood to make them. After that, try “smelting” sand in the machine and then try to use Iron for the space ship

Music: GREAT DAYS - 8 BIT REMIX (made by us)

The graphics and audio are awesome, but it seems to freeze if I stand next to a tree. It says press E to harvest, but nothing happens.

@ruskyrussian I forgot to mention, USING 1 - 4 uses the inventory items. As for the spaceship, you need to finish the first set of tools. try to put stone and wood to make them. After that, try "smelting" sand in the machine and then try to use Iron for the space ship

@wheelsx We have tested many times. It seems the controls for harvesting are a bit unresponsive, It will be updated for the game but not for the submission since the deadline is already past us.

Thanks for playing and rating!

Awesome game! Really nice idea and music. Took me awhile to Killer Queen: Bites the Dust! (Ignore that).

Very cool. The music was great and even though the game was simple, I had a good time exploring the world. Good job to the both of you :)

Awesome idea but the mechanics arent exactly smooth bet hey the graphics are amazing on the other hand.

I couldn't figure out how to do anything except pick things up. I loved the shifty eyes though.
OneManCrew
08. Oct 2019 · 07:27 UTC
THOSE EYES! loved the game and the music.. but damn those eyes.
A few things that I found a bit disturbing:
1. Lack of game controls explanation.
2. No map.
3. Game crash after death.
4. Many cows were harmed during my quest.
5. Lack of explanation of what goes into the machine or what it does.

@onemancrew Thank you for your feedback.
The game crash after death is intentional. As for the explanations, We just didn't have enough time to do them. And at least the cows are in a better place now.

Fun idea and there is a huge lack of well-made JoJo games (probably because the source material is super difficult haha)

I think you've picked a character who would really work well for a more light-hearted game and I also liked the chiptune adaptation of the soundtrack! I also would've liked some more direction on how to use the machine, but I think this could be built into a more compelling game overall!

@zsombro Thank you for your feedback! (It wasn't really meant to be shigechi, but the way we made his art kinda reminded us of shigechi. It was kind of a dev-joke. Also, Harvesting... HARVEST)

@rayne Thank you for playing and rating!

Okay congratulations for shipping a complete game, not everyone manages it! The music is really catchy, that’s pretty good! Also the minecraft-esque gameplay is enjoyable, but there is still a lot to be improved! There should be something on the ground (maybe roads or tracks?) that lets you know where you are, because you get lost quite easily. There must be a way to discard or expire dropped loot, because it gets easily crowded. And it’s a bad idea to use the same button for collecting loot and for extracting.

I finished the game twice, but OL died immediately, I couldn’t even screenshot my complete rocket! Here are his last moments:![rocket.png](///raw/9b9/1/z/28ec2.png)

@samh I couldn't agree more with you! We will polish the game more of course!
I think you are the first one to figure out how to use the machine that well :D
Thank you for playing and rating!

Looks fun, I had some difficulties using the machine and inventory... I couldn't drop tools for some reason and didn't know what I should put in the machine, it just took some resources and spewed out tools. Fun idea and would be great game with some instructive feedback to player.

Cool game! Quite a lot of looking around and getting lost lol. It was very limited with only 4 inventory slots. But I guess it adds to the challenge! :D

The audio is great and loved the art and the minecraft-ish vibe to it. Did not realy understand what i have to do. Managed to harvest a few apples and killed a couple of cows. The machine worked but nothing came out. A tutorial would be great or maybe a few pictures in the LD page to help expalin a bit more.
