Space Alien Cow Milk by Beeb GameCodeCompany

[raw]
made by Beeb GameCodeCompany for Ludum Dare 53 (JAM)

NOTE: To move the bottle click and drag left or right, don't move your mouse around the bottle! I tried to do rotation but was unsuccessful so left and right dragging is how you rotate.

AWFUL GRAPHICS, I KNOW...but doesn't represent the rest of the game I hope.

Milk moves independently from the bottle in space, so move the bottle to stop milk from leaking...This is the cargo of your delivery, keep it safe through 6 levels! More info on the game and development below if interested.

Full screen it and get lost in this atmosphere...with awful graphics :D

Instead of making a game where you physically delivery something I decided to make a game where you take care of your delivery items, to make sure it reaches it's destination safely.

This game is about a near-retired space truck driver, he's asked to deliver milk from space cows to earth as a gift of peace. The graphics are awful, I tried to find people to help this compo but no luck. Hope people enjoy it and give it a go.

Thanks and big shout out to Cobear25, he suggested a fix to my code and it literally saved this project...so play his game ya'll.

A very creative premise. The milk jugs felt finicky to balance though

cute graphics, interesting and unique mechanics, but I feel like the milk should spill less when the liquid level goes down.

Very clear idea, I like that. Also I think you should not destroy milk particles after time, let them fly inside ship and create more chaos.

You should use noise reduction when recording voice or after. In something like Audacity it is literally 5 clicks for great sound quality.

Ohhh no, all the planets went to war because of me :flushed: :sweat_smile:

Funny game! The graphic is somehow cute! Great game idea, really something different from the other games I have played. And also fun!

The mechanics and the design are simple but no less valuable, it is well done.

I dig this game mechanic quite a lot! the stress and pressure is going up after each round, really cool. Insane cutscenes too, truly add something to the atmosphere. I love to play this kind of game while listening to music, I would've probably spent a few hours on this one if it had an infinite mode ahah!

difficult to control the jugs, but good concept. Liked the art style :wink:

@kohcepba Thanks for the feedback, I will look into the noise reduction. I record voices sometimes but just figured the poor quality was from a bad microphone and not bad settings, so I'm excited to hear I can adjust settings to fix this.

@kdx I am thinking about polishing this game up and putting it on the App Store. I completely agree with adding an endless mode, I was hoping to do that but like everyone else, just ran out of time. Thanks for the input.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, I'll try to play your games. The biggest problem this game has is the controls work perfectly when you drag only LEFT or RIGHT, but that's not how we expect the controls to be...we expect to rotate by dragging in a circle and I just didn't get enough time to program it that way :(

Solid game w/ a cool idea. I wish more games just said "here's another one" and let you start the next level :D

PS—be sure to rate others' games so yours is promoted and you get enough reviews.

Oh well the planets are now at war, I guess we're all crying over spilt milk! But after a few attempts, I got the hang of rotating the jars, it was a bit weird at first but as anything once you learn the knack it's really good. Loved the art actually, it reminded me of the good ol' days of Newgrounds, and the flash games you'd see on that, plus the humour was fantastic. Overall, a really good little quirky games that gave me the nostalgic feels for sure! Great stuff ^-^

Cool idea, failed to understand what to do from the first try though)
