Life's a Witch (Then you Pie) v 1.3
A spooky, N64-Styled collect-a-thon
LAST UPDATED: November 17th
Most recent version features bug fixes, optimization/less lag, brighter/easier to see pumpkins and randomized pumpkin placements!
---
Collect Pumpkins, Gems, Bones and Mushrooms, mix mana potions and dodge ghosties and spiders, boost your way around the terrain and make it back to the witches cottage so she can make her pumpkin pie!
Not particularly well optimized, I only realized this after coming to upload it with about half an hour until the deadline. If the web version is lagging, please try downloading it - it's not that large and it should run much smoother!
The game is only one level long, but I hope you enjoy the game all the same, and have an awesome Halloween!

'Cause you never know when you're gonna go 💯💯🔥🔥
Uhhhhhh... what? O_O
i thought the title was a reference to the Nas song 😭
it's a reference to the saying "life's a bitch and then you die" lol
Made a video
no gnu/linux builds, so i'm trying to run it on wine... is 2 fps a decent frame rate? o.O
that is not normal no lol. I can port it to Linux a little later this week :)
when I *do* revise this project to an enhanced version - would you be willing to test the Linux build for me? I don't have an available Linux machine to try it out on. It'd be a great help!
i only found and read these comments now, sorry about... runs perfectly on gnu/linux! :) (as i mentioned at mastodon weeks ago i think... :) )
Hah, thats okay, I'm only just writing up the announcement post for the update for Tumblr and Mastodon now! (Had a bit of a rough week mental health wise...)
Glad it works well! :D
good game and i like the mana mechanics
Thank you! :D I do like shooting at the ghosties haha
I can't open the game due to this error:
Error
The following features required to run Godot projects on the Web are missing:
Cross Origin Isolation - Check web server configuration (send correct headers)
Thanks for letting me know. Apparently it's an issue that you can run into with Godot projects if you're trying to run the game in Safari, but there *is* a plugin I can use in future versions to prevent this error happening - only thing is, we're past the one extra day allocated to allow modifications to our games now, so I'll have to wait until the end of the judging period to try to fix it (I'm actually looking at doing a Mac one for when that period ends as well). For now, if you wanna play it, you might have to download it. Sorry about that! It does run MUCH better downloaded, though. There are a few lag issues with the in-browser version.
Just to further help troubleshoot, I'm not using Safari or a Mac. I tried running the game as a download, also tried it with Firefox. (I'm using Windows 11) In both instances I got this error.
i got this same error launching it after downloading sadly. Tried to play browser version (opera GX) and the lag was just too much. this looks really cute tho, i really hope it gets fixed cuz the aesthetics alone got me hooked, i just know i would ADORE this game!!!
You got this error after *downloading* it?! Huh well... that's new. Sorry about that! Yeah, the game lags a lot in browser, although apparently some browsers are worse than others for web games.
BTW, have you played any other downloadable Godot games on that system? I'd be interested to know if it's my game only or if it's all Godot games. Wiggly Candy Hand is another one that's made in Godot. give it a try and let me know if you get a similar bug... it'd help me narrow it down to if it's an engine thing or specifically just my one!
well Dreamcubedid reply to ya saying "Just to further help troubleshoot, I'm not using Safari or a Mac. I tried running the game as a download, also tried it with Firefox. (I'm using Windows 11) In both instances I got this error." After the download error, I also tried in firefox and chrome to laggy avail. :( I just wanna play your game it looks so cute!!!!
and yup, theres the womp womp right there :( I have played tons of godot games in the past few days with no issue
I also downloaded Wiggly Candy hand and it's running with no issue, so I think it might just be a problem with Lifes a Witch. Btw it doesnt crash or anything, it just stays running on that screen, if that helps any. I would send a dev/crash log as well but it doesnt seem I have that option haha
That's very strange. I'll have a look & try rebuilding it when I get home, but sadly I'm gonna be away from my PC now until after the judging is over :(
And yes, I did see the message from Dreamcube - but only after I saw your reply. My bad xD
so sweet game retro
