Downfall

Dude this game is one of my favourites ! Good job !

Great game! The mechanic is simple but flexible, made for some challenging puzzles. The game matches the theme. The graphics are nice and more importantly, clear. I did find myself naturally selecting the red highlighted spaces, only to realise that I can click anywhere.

Overall, the game is well polished. Awesome job!

Very simple but clever design that fitthe theme very well. I'm impressed with your level design. This game loks very polished. Really great job!

This game is awesome! Simple and quick to understand gameplay, I was invested in finding the right strategy to beat each level.

@clayrok Thanks for your kind words, this means a lot to us. @jongjo Oh I understand, yea the red highlighted space means the infection is going to spread there next, I feel its a very likely misconception that we havent thought about initially :).

@pierkwadrat Thank you, currently we have 24 levels with 5 types of hazardous environment, so we had quiet a playground to play with designing levels. @janwalsh Thanks for your comment, there is always a way to save 3 cities in each level, so searching for better strategies is always awarded! :)

Cool! Every level is more challenging than the previous one. I love the progression and the different kind of tiles that show up over time. Good job!

Really cool game, finding the solutions to each level was really rewarding. Good job!

@theog Thanks a lot, we tried to balance out the progression as much as we can. @earlybard we wanted to make the game easy, but we also wanted to reward the players that go for better - more optimized solutions.

The best game so far I have played from this ludum dare! The levels are simplistic but really good and the mechanic can create interesting puzzles, I also like the graphic and audio! Only thing I miss is some kind of tutorial or help guide lines from start so people know what to do, I jump right in to the game and after a while I had to scroll down to the text to find out how the game is working... But I still love it!

Best one imo at the moment!

Nothing to say, this is really cool! Congratulations!

Cool game, I think it's well polished and good enough to publish already!

Simply incredible! One of the best ones so far!!

This game was really innovative and quite challanging. I wasn't able to get three stars of in all levels. Planing ahead of time on what cities to sacrifice in order to make most of them survive at the end was the most interesting part for me. It felt so mean as well (deciding the fate of entire cities), I loved it. Game mechanics introduced as the game progresses were cool and complied with each other nicely. Great game :)

Wow. Just wow. That game is really cool. Sacrifice part is pretty clear. I guess thats the best game I played at this moment at ld43.

Ten out of ten.

nice puzzle game, well done

@gordy wow thanks a lot for your kind words, we tried to not use words to explain mechanics, which didn't work that well I suppose. Lots of feedback shows confusion about some mechanics. @martynas @m3rcurial92 thanks a lot! :) @tosunami im sure it has a lot to polish - work on until it becomes publishable, but I hope this could be a good step towards it ! @verbante Thanks for your kind words, and thanks for creating such a great game yourself! @captainweeaboo Thank you, we wanted to clearly depict giving up sacrifices for a cause! @goldenmelon @matheus-mello thanks for playing!

Good game ! The art style is really cool too ! Only thing I would of done different is to block the player from trying the next level until he finishes the one he is currently working on. All in all good job guys !

@drcheetos Thank you, we wanted to make the game easier for the jam. We allow players to pass the level if they save at least 1 city, which should be really easy. But if you are in it for a real challenge you can save 3 cities in every level. :)

Nice polished game with simple, yet clever mechanic, liked the simple visuals too :) Only thing that was little anoying was a short music loop. Otherwise well done :)

@jantaaa thank you. You are completely right about the music loop. I think its the most urgent problem the game has.

Great game, simple mechanic but hugely addictive!

Awesome mechanics, really enjoyed this puzzle game :D
Also managed to get 3 stars on all of them^^
Only tiny thing that could be improved: detect, if all cities were lost, even if the infection could still spread^^ That would save a bit of time and clicking, if you screw up (those rivers are really mean XD)

One of the best game I've tried ! Graphisms are simple and beautiful, music is so cool, and the gameplay and level are well design. Great idea that fit perfectly the theme =) well done !

@cloakedninjas Thank you for playing :), @zugai89 wow ! Congrats, we figured out really shortly how punishing the rivers were :D. You are completely right about losing all cities thing. @gebowunjo thanks a lot for your kind words. :)

nice game! It's very smooth to control and great music,if you want to save something ,other things must be sacrificed.i like this theme

@co181127 thank you for playing! We didn't make the music so we can't take credit for it. I agree about the theme though its a fun theme for a jam. :)

An interesting game with a kind of mechanics. I put a rating) Please rating and me, thanks in advance)

Argh I'm absolutely stuck at the fifth level, no matter what I do I can't save three cities. I'd love to see more but for now it's pretty great! The triangulated patterns on the tiles are a nice touch, also I love hexagons so this speaks to me on a deep level. I wish I could say more, I'll edit if I ever get unstuck. Congratulations nonetheless :)
EDIT: Hell yeah I just beat the fifth level!

@awix Thank you for playing, your games very nice too, really liked the aesthetics. @lucien-catonnet haha, level 5 is a tricky one, try to reconsider your first move, you can play on spaces that are not red as well (its a misconception lots of players had). Its also good to hear there are more fellow hexagon lovers in ldj

Very nice and addictive game also good way of implementing the theme. the music was a bit repetetive though.

Nice game! The gameplay was fun and interesting - but also really accessible and easy. Sound track was fantastic. The main menu looks cool too. Good game! Keep it up.

Really great puzzle game! The way each new mechanic was introduced was well done, and the difficulty was pretty well balanced.

Interesting game, I really like the graphics and the way the puzzles are designed!

@fluffi thank you for playing, I am completely with you with the music problem, we opted out of music for that reason too :(. @denifia thank you, start screen was arqcenicks work (our programmer), and it turned out awesome! @svntax Thank you, we tried to make the pacing well, we have few level that comes off harder like level 5. @lazertrax thank you, since we had lots of puzzle pieces the level design was fun, and levels turned out well. :)

Wow! Blown away. This was great. Really loved all the art and puzzles. We played through all the levels, that last one was hard! There should be a quicker way to reset, and I would have loved a level selection menu.

@treslapin Thank you for playing ! Yea the reset maybe a bit of a hustle to press, you have to press the menu button than reset, it should be right on the screen. Last level is a bit tricky. It started from me trying to recreate Central London's map, and it turned out to be a really hard level. :D A level selection menu would be a good step up, I agree.

This is awesome! Really polished, smart and good looking! And it goes really well with the theme. Sometimes you just need to sacrifice some cities for the greater good.

Congratulations I really enjoyed it, it's a great game and you nailed the theme!

@gerardb Thank you for playing. :) We were kind of inspired by, how in chess some pieces are sacrificed to win the game.

I spent way more time than I though on this game, great job this is perfect ! It took me a while to figure i could quarantine any triangle and not just red highlighted ones.

@kerdelos Thank you for playing. Yea that is a feedback we got a lot, it is not something we had taught of while developing. Going forward we would change the red highlights to fix that. :)

Wow! This is simple but also very challenging! Everything that a great puzzle game needs. Very well done!!!

@wowa Thank you for your kind words, if you like a bit more challenge try going for 3 stars! :)

Very polished entry. The level design is interesting and I’d have liked to retry some levels in order to save 3 cities, but I could not find a way to retry the current level; is there a level browser or something like that?

@samh Thank you for playing, Yes, we have a menu at the top right corner of the screen. You can go back or forward levels from there, and we have a retry button as well there. I see that tho, how it is a bit hard to find. Thank you for the helpful feedback.

@dorukh thanks! the menu was indeed a bit unclear because it was not always available; I managed to get three stars on each level, now :smiley:
