Nice, simple game
And a very good battleships game with georgous art style!
Sadly I still can’t get past the moderation

Keep at it! Took me three attempts to pass.
Anything the forum might be able to help with?
One issue is that they don’t see ads, while I tested it a lot and it works for me, from different browsers, only sometimes I see an info that there is no adv to show:
But otherwise I see ads without any problems:
Second is regarding saving progress - it also works for me, but it looks like saving in browser cache is not working for them. I have a workaround for this sadly - I enabled all the levels from the very beginning, so there is no more “progress” to save.
Third is regarding some problems with buttons, that don’t want to work “sometimes” - and I can’t define why - I am trying to debug it now
Ah, the old “it works on my machine” type problems. The worst!
There’s a three minute cooldown for showing adverts. The advert wont display if requested within that limit. That’s really the only thing I can think of.
For this limit there is another error message, I also saw it. I don’t know. Previously adv was playing after 10th level, maybe they were not playing it again, so now I changed to play after 3rd (First 3 are the easiest, one shot levels). I submitted the game with corrected input handling (used gui.picknode instead of wrapper onscreen I was not so familiar with)
Why not after every level? I think Yandex will throttle ads anyway so that you can’t show too many ads.
In this jam, I tried to make a 3d game for the first time. And this is my first experience using blender in games. I was making a game in my free time. I had to set my morning alarm an hour earlier. Of course, I would like to add a lot, but unfortunately the timing of the jam is limited.
I uploaded now a version with ads trying to be displayed after each level and that timeout by Yandex indeed blocks them. Submitted for moderation
So. My target was:
A little game is ready
Sent game to review Dec 9, in moderation yet

Congratulations @Alexander_Bulatov and @Dragosha, very good games! Generally this jam is full of high quality, fun games!
Amazing stuff!
Epic! Amazing work as always, Dragosha!
I can’t find the last ball T-T but I suspect something went wrong down here. I can see a shadow but not the object. Maybe the last ball bugged for me?
possibly bug ( Try to: exit to previous location and back. Balls should spawn again on their place.
I did this on the previous session but didnt work (the stage was cleared already. It didn’t reset). I closed the game and tried the continue option. The first time I coudn’t move my character. I did refresh the page and all looks normal now. All balls there \o/ Good job again!
I was lucky enough to finish my jam game in time:
It had to be a failure for many reasons, I only had night time at my disposal, development was complete improvisation. Until the very end I had no idea how it would end. But everything somehow settled by itself
The game will take 12 - 20 minutes to beat (according to leaderboard).
Game mechanics are based on drawpixels extension by @AGulev.
Also, huge gratitude goes to the Russian Defold community for ideas, advice, stress testing and feedback.
Some strange words i’ve used:
Yolka is a transliteration of the Russian word meaning New Year Tree (usually spruce).
Baba Yaga is a flying cannibal witch from Slavic folklore.
How do you do it! My top score is just barely above 2000.
The game approved and in catalog now:
