A mini multi-tasking game~
It's my first LD, it's so fun making games again.
The main objective is to survive. Game will end if:
- Body temperature is too high / too low.
- Too many uncollected Broken Heart
- Too many uncollected O2 or CO2
You need to have the following keys on your keyboard to play the game XD - E, R or [, ] - Space - UpArrow, DownArrow
I tried 1~2 hours to balance the gameplay and difficulty progress, but it's still not perfect. Appreciate for your understanding.
P.S. There is no happy ending yet. :( But I will add it later when I am free. Take care.
Regarding the Sound Effects, I edited from some free to use Youtube sound effects video (Yep, video...) Theoretical, I'm not made them from scratch. So I opt it out from rating. I have to say, those sfxs are so cool!
A really interesting little game, it took me a while to get to grips with the timing on the heartbeat but still really enjoyable. I was surprised by how stressful it got as the game went on (but in a good way) :)
The background sound effects really produces a great atmosphere for this game.
I like that the screen is tinted when one of the vital signs goes off. It's a great indicator of how I'm performing and provide instant & intuitive feedback.
Really cool, nice atmosphere and interesting gameplay. Feels very polished. Only real major gripe is it's quite hard to figure out what I'm meant to be doing. Like, I assume I have to hit space to collect the hearts, but surely it'd make more sense to be pressing space periodically, if my heart beats that irregularly I have fundamentally failed to grasp human biology.
If this taught me anything its that I should not be a doctor. I really liked the growing difficulty of slowly adding more buttons to keep track of. As someone who is horrific at multitasking this game was really hard for me, but I did sorta find a rhythm to it. I really loved your sound effect (although the flatline at the end I personally found a little bit loud.) Congrats on coming up with such a cool way to utilize the theme.
@brandon-js-lea Thank you for the feedback~ It's true that it doesn't make sense for a normal human to heart beat like that LOL. Will update this part if I can find a funny and challenging mechanism for periodic beat. Cuz I thought it maybe a bit boring for just asking player to hit the space periodically.
Have to say it is a very very very cool game! As a man who has absolutely no multi-tasking skills, this is really challenging for me lol. Love the SFXs, definitly gave a special flavour to the game. (The heart beat sounds made me so nervous lol, like I'm going to die at any moment!) Good one bro~
Excellent! You did great work on making the game slowly introduce new elements. The game quickly becomes a handful though and it's hard to keep up. Excellent theme adherence!
Really enjoyed the stress of this entry. I also think that the lack of music really helps create this atmosphere of Don't mess up Don't mess up, Great game.
Pretty hard to play, the controls feel weird to use, but the graphics are very nice to look at, the sound design is actually kinda creepy and it's deffinetley something i've never seen before. nice little game!
I like your idea, building the intensity was nice, and i was able to quickly understand what i needed to do for each task. It became difficult to manage all of the controls, though that may have to do more with my skill than the gameplay.
I really love the graphics, very aesthetically pleasing. I would have preferred to have some more time before dealing with the third part, to get more acquainted with the second one, but overall it's really solid. Good job!
Simple, but extremely well done. aesthetically pleasing and the ambient sounds do a lot for mood. Very hard, but fun. I'd maybe slow down the difficulty increase a little, to ease players into the game a bit more.
@houdou You might be right, but it might also be worth giving it a shot. Hitting space periodically probably is boring, but much less so when you're doing everything else as well. It stops being simple when you also have to control temperature ect, so some of the games might be better off simple.
I was surprised by how stressful it got as the game went on (but in a good way) :)
