Loved this game! Such a fun playthrough and really well crafted! :DDD
Would recommend beefing up the visuals with the ending, to help the player know they did in fact win/provide sense of closure.
A pickup radius upgrade could be really nice as well.
So well done and so much fun, thank you!!! This is what the PICO-8 is all about!
Honestly, PICO-8 game of the year candidate already, it has been such a long time since I was pulled into the atmosphere of a game. I really liked everything you had in here, IF I had to say something, the ending could be missed, if the player forgets about the log computer (such as my dumb face did). Otherwise, amazing game, looking forward to your creations!
Very fun game. He who didn't suffocate with his bag of juicy shrooms throws the first stone.
Excellent game. Very engaging.
Is there an endgame I'm missing, or does it just end when you've upgraded all three parts of your suit all the way?
There is a special resource you can find and analyze to get a final message from HQ
Yeah, I found that. Just wasn't sure whether there was anything else; I expected an end game screen or something. Anyway, great little game! Well done.
its really fun! very motivating and i love the atmosphere!
