Vice - Ludum Dare49 by Truedat
Was my first LD and it was a good experience. Thank you! I used Pyxel Edit for sprites, Geist and Cubase for sound and Unity as my development flagship. Have fun playing this short collect-driven pixel art game . Have a good one and keep care !
Edit: As soon as the dumpster gets highlighted go for it. you have a specific time to dump the stuff you collected in there.

The gameplay however gets repetitive pretty fast. Some variety would be nice.
Good job at making those graphics!
Idk if it was a bug, but the camera kept zooming in and out randomly. Maybe it was based on how much trash I was carrying/proximity to dumpster? I couldn't always put the trash in the dumpster? Slightly confusing.
Either way, it was frigging sick.
had no time left to give this info to you players. so on the first iteration you only get one bagpack full and you need tio dump it than the next round starts. something like this :) thx for playing and your feedback
I found it hard to know where or who my character is at first. An outline might have helped.
Congrats on your first submission!
I would say I would've liked the music to vary a tad. It was very chill and moody, but will little development and change. Then again, being a short game, I'm not surprised. I'm interested how you did it.
Would you mind as well checking out our game as well?? It's called 'King on the Mountain', for which I did the Music and Sound design, so I'd be very interested in hearing your take on it. ^^
Thank you for making for game!!
@jazzathefoss @aznz @uncle-j0ker ye it needs some work on the performance side. i am not an expert when it comes to things like that. maybe the fog shader and the cinemachine camerazooms are whats causing this. in future i will definitely try to improve on that. thx for your feedback
@qookie i have an idea to expand that little game to a full one. with a trash merchant and even that you can live in one of those houses and with more missions to do. but it will take a lot more time ;)
@kgabis thx its a hip hop beat loop. and ye its now just about collecting those boags and throw em into the dumpster. nothing challenging at the moment ;) thx for feedback
Great art style and concept. I think the explanation for such game needs to be better. For example, I don't understand when the dumpster is available. I think the art is too dark (might be my monitor), which makes it a lot harder to see.
Anyway good job on the submission !
Amazing art style and really cool visual effect. Music is pleasant to the ear too. Great job.
