The game looks really cute and simple! I find it a little bit odd how the heart move, like it would have some delay when I press the key, but overall is nice! Keep doing and trying stuff!
This game is very intuitive and makes for a quick pick-up and play. The mechanics are fluid and heart-warming (pun intended). I tried to heart-beat my failures and made it to Level 2, which was a unique twist of elements. The sound effects are fun to admire, especially the heart-beat but also the coin when you collide. I even enjoy how there's 2 little eyes on the player heart. It adds depth and character to an enjoyable experience.
A very simple game that works with the theme. However, the only problem was the controls are delayed. Besides that the game play is fun and cute. Really good
I liked the construction of this game. I think maybe the problem is that when you try to use two arrow keys at once, it only detects one, thus it feels delayed? Regardless, it's a clever and inventive game. Great job.
The concept was pretty interesting. It took some time for me to understand that I need to fill up both my heart *and* the other hearts. I thought that concept simultaneously helping others and yourself was interesting though.
Interesting concept, the controls were a bit janky and there wasn't tons to do. The basics of the game were interesting and fun though, and the graphics were pretty decent - congrats!
I liked the aesthetic, very minimalistic and well constructed! Very easy to understand and pick up. The first level was pretty easy, but I had a hard time on the challenge level. Good job!
Great concept! The gameplay loop is simple yet quite addictive, the sound effects definitely add quite a bit to the feel of the game. The movement could have used a bit of work, especially given that it's the core verb of the game. Overall well done!
I like how simple and approachable it is! The idea of the hearts getting small over time was a fun twist. I also liked how there was a timer going down instead of a score going up!Made me more motivated to keep the hearts full. Controlling the heart was a little off, but other than that it was fun! :heart:
Thanks again for all the great feedbackI I reread the rules and realized it seems ok to make this quick bug fix for the controls – so they should be working better now.
I really like the game! Fun mechanics and the pixel art style is great. Sometimes the controls seem to not really respond though? Especially when many hearts were moving fast. Not sure if it's an issue with the html5 not being able to handle drawing so many fast moving sprites at once, but something to debug if you continue with it. Overall, it's a really cool little game!
Hi @thelemba@tyler-bay and @gabe-lane. Thanks so much for the feedback. I reread the rules and realized it seems ok to make this quick bug fix for the controls -- so they should be working better now.
Nice and simple idea that fits well with the theme. I like the gameplay, but I have a couple of suggestions: - shorter level time makes the game more interesting. For example the first level gets very easy once you understand the goal and control, but then there's maybe 60-70 seconds left to wait. - spread out the introduction of new mechanincs over more levels (and/or explain them better). For me, level 2 was very confusing until I understood that the arrows had nothing to do with the all-white rings.
This is overall very good. However, the movement was a bit awkward. It feels like there should be more friction on the player's heart. And when I got to the second stage, I died very quickly, before getting a chance to see how anything there worked.
Thanks a lot for the feedback @alchemic. I would like to add more levels, first introducing the white quick sand circles, and then on a later level the directional arrows. Also some short instructions before those levels start and a few seconds to test the new features. For example, just seeing one heart caught one white circle and you have to push it through before starting one level. And then seeing the same scenario and having to press space bar to place a directional arrow before the other level starts. That's the plan anyways. Hopefully that will help. Thanks again!
