Keep our Mother alive by soyrandom
Hello captain! The invasion of Earth began. Our glorious mother is incubating clones to create troops on our military front. But for that task, it needs a lot of energy, so we must constantly feed it or it will die trying!!Our collectors will bring food, you should collect what you can with A and D. Some things provide little energy, but it is better than nothing!! Good luck.

Couple of pieces of feedback:
- Occasionally, the right arm gets stuck and won't move when i press the 'D' key. Things still get collected but the animation may have broken.
- For future iterations, you can make variants of this mechanic and ship it as a full game :)
Well done! Y'all should be proud of this one.
Why our mother can take log,shoes and even rubbish bins,while she cannot take a tyre?
And I realize that in the last two levels there are chances that I do everything right but still fail. It feels bad when I have to depend on luck.
Great job overall!
gameplay gets tedious fast, given that each stage is 90 seconds long and the same thing repeats
The levels were a bit long, and the rng wasn't super fair near the end (we played the last level many times perfectly before it finally let us win). However, the art is top-notch!
That being said, the other levels played great and the introduction of the "fake" objects was really nice (my favorite was the nuke pig :stuck_out_tongue: ). Ironically though, it actually started to get a bit easier as it went on due to the fact that you could mentally block out a higher percentage of objects. If I could make a suggestion, it would be to add more difficulty through the speed of the objects and less through the percentage of fakes once it makes it to approximately 50% so as to not accidentally reduce the amount you need to concentrate. That would also help with my problem of losing despite playing perfectly. :slight_smile:
All things considered, I'd say this was a pretty solid entry. Well done.
1- @alphabetasoup Thanks!! Mmm, i couldn't reproduce that bug, but i'll check it!
2- @lvl76blastoise thanks, we appreciate you liked!
3- @welby thank :) *not real turtles were harmed, we love em*
4- @decappoolla Yeah, i noticed that, the rng i coded was a bit rushed, we started the jam a bit late and i had to study, work and do other stuff, so i really didn't have time to play it, i'll try to make it bit easier
5- @maxter10001 Yes, my artist did, all from scratch in flash
6- @wareya Thanks for playing! we didn't have enough time for polishing the gameplay sadly :c
7- @boxedmeatrevolution Thanks a lot!
8- @hangarter Nope, sorry! Godot's html export is not that good yet
9- @nuckelavee13 Thanks for playing! Tbh we didn't have time to play it so i just randomly put 90 seconds
10- @feh all the animations were made in flash, then exported as sprites
11- @guitarbro ding ding ding! Yep, the art was made in flash, my artist and me are flash users (in my case ex-user) we used to develop games in it. All the art an animations were made in flash
12- @ladmiester read answer number 3 :)
Although the mechanics were simple, they certainly did their job, and it was kind of zen going back and forth looking for things to eat. :) The rounds could probably stand to be about half the length they are now, I think, but that's a minor criticism in an otherwise fun experience!
I could not beat the (seemed like last?) level. I played 7 perfect games in which there was just not enough stuff to keep it alive. I also played a few non-perfect games that were maybe going fine until I ate a bomb ^_^. If the earth is invaded by aliens, they will be defeated by our poor use of PRNGs.
I really liked the trash-variants of nutrition and got tricked into going for it a few times :D
Fun game! Really appreciate the efforts that went into the aesthetics!
