Fruit punch is an action game, where you summon berries to fight germs.

The more perfect your juice-ingredient amounts are, the stronger the berries.

Use E, F, J, I to add juices to the summon cap. Try to get close to the targets. Not all juices are active every round.

In the beginning, only one juice will be active at a time.

You can add more than one juice at the same time, if requested.

I think its the most fun when you have to hold them down at the start because the time is too short to do it individually. But the time was usually long enough that I could do it individually. I think itd be cool if the meter doesnt start until you start holding them ALL down and then you have to be cautious of what finger you lift up first. Nice work! Very cool visuals and funny sound effects!

Super amazing submission!

Incredible artwork.
Great music and funny sound effects.
Gameplay was very easy to understand yet was addicting and hard to put down.

Well done!

This was such a well made game to be made in this period of time. The team behind this should be proud :smile:

Hi! The art is incredible! Nice job! I want to know more about the lore! lol

It took me a while to figure out how the button timing actually worked, but once I did it was fun!
The graphics are nice and the sfx are really funny. Nice work!

Congratulations on your entry. The attention to graphic details is evident and truly appreciable. Consider enhancing the game by introducing a combo highlight feature, which rewards players for achieving perfect hits consecutively with a special bonus. Wishing you plenty of fun as you explore the other games in the jam!

I loved this game! Was super simple to pick up but so hard to put back down and i just kept playing! The sound effects and art fit really well together.
I didn't notice the timer on the can until it went off the first time but after I noticed it the time pressure made the game much more engaging.
I also loved the high score element and if you use a high score in the future you could make the score a "PlayerPref" so it is saved between sessions.

> Don't ask about the lore

Yes, the lore is unusual.
Microbes against, um?

unusual control, and great job!

Looks cool!

Love the feedback on how close I was to the right amount of juice each time :D the concept is VERY CUTE -- I love me some adorable fruit and bug art!!! It was really fun to figure out the controls. I attempted some extra challenge by starting all the keys at the same time (I failed miserably, but enjoyed it anyway :) )

Kirass16 Apr 2024, 23:13

You are really great! The game turned out great!

Liked the concept of creating a recipe for juice guys - the timing of it got really fast for me after round 8. At first i didn't realize it was on a timer. I would have liked to see how different juices could combine differently without the constraint on the timing - but I think that would be a more complicated game as the player would have to experiment with different combinations and it'll be hard to determine whether what you make will be strong or not. Maybe certain juices could be strong or weak against specific enemies? Anyway nice work!

Nice game. It took me a while to understand the mechanic but that was fun. Scored 9M!

Cool game ! Now I 'am thirsty ! Difficult game but I quite liked it !

LDJam user 38631425 Apr 2024, 19:11

Difficult game

Knatt28 Apr 2024, 18:04

fun game when you get the controls down. It gets really hard for me when you get over round 5

Tomssuli30 Apr 2024, 18:39

Pretty good game. Didn't need a tutorial to get the idea, trying it was enough. At some point the juice suddenly starts flowing really fast though so I get lots of misses from that point on. Maybe a less steep difficulty curve would be nice... It probably depends on game mode too.

Musics and noises were good, graphics even better. The whole game felt overall polished. Online scoreboard would have been great.

All in all, good job!

Also, toi näyttää kovasti lonkerotölkiltä :sweat_smile:

That's such a cool and fun concept! I love the bright look of the game, vivid colours, and the kinda cooking theme going on here x) Gameplay idea is simple (connected to timing) but works well and it is satisfying to hit a "perfect". Tbh I was more interested in making juice then some enemy-fighting going on there xD But my combatants were cute! That's my fav:

My favourite part about the game is audio effects, they are so goofy and funny and really elevate the experience ^^
