I had a laugh when I understood
Sweet water shader as well👍
This is an really interesting concept. It's sort of a mix of baseball with golf and the continents(?)/islands(?) are the holes. I thought the split screen was a really innovative idea to get the concept that you are hitting the ice cube far.
Also just when I thought, "Oh I guess the gameplay is mainly just this one loop of aiming and hitting." The world started spinning and it made the game more of a challenge. I know there is more stuff that can be added to this game to give it more variety but it's a game jam so I'm not going to harp on it. I think it's in a pretty good state.
Music is fantastic. Very epic. Graphics are great.
Nice game. Epic music.
The game looks great with nice little effects and the style was amazing. The split screen meant you could really appreciate the effort put into the graphics. The way she stops to see watch the cube go is real cute and the trail it leaves behind is very satisfying! The music was suitably intense for an epic mission and the sound effects made the game more responsive which was nice. I would maybe suggest adding a little pitch variation to the hit sound to make the game a little more dynamic.
Overall, a really great game that is very nicley polished and put together. Looks amazing with a great atmposphere. Well done!
I have a problem with the game in terms of how it looks, half of the game is just the character hitting but it doesn't really give me information about the game, it's just 'decoration', I think this is more of a personal preference but I rather when in a game everything has a purpose with the game mechanics itself~
I had a lot of fun, I played a few rounds until it got too complicated to control global warming
above all a complete and fun experience, great!
