Apr 27 09:36:14 DOWNHELL ♥ 2 Really cool entry. The art is really well done. All the animation convey the actions clearly. This is also a perfect example on how to do "game feel" right. The balancing is the only issue that is holding the game really back right now. There are quite a few "impossible" (at least they feel like it) situations where you have to lose health. I think the lowest I've gotten was to 6 or 7 (past the shop) and I have felt that that was more based on luck than on execution on my part. Maybe I'm just playing not well enough. What's your current High Score? I would also consider to take this game further post jam. I think you're really on to something with this one! Thanks for making it :)
Apr 27 09:56:07 19m 53s Acheron's Gambit ♥ 2 The premise of the game had me immediately interested. It reminds me a lot of Gauntled, which I played a lot as a Kid. But to be honest this game feels like it isn't really finished and also probably not what you imagined it to be in the end. While the visuals are really, really nice the combat is just not really fun. And by that I mean the systems / game design behind it. While it's good that the attack ranges are pretty wide there is not a lot of telegraphing happening to tell you when to get out of the way. And since you completely rely on dodging that's pretty bad. I even looked up the controls again because I thought there *must* be a parry or block button. And it's probably also not really a question of skill because I can see that you're having the same problems in your video. I hope my criticism is not too harsh. I'm just trying to give you some input on what to improve because, again, the premise of the game is pretty great and I would like to see this concept fully fleshed out. So consider to keep working on it. Thanks :)
Apr 27 16:56:11 7h 00m Close your eyes ♥ 1 Pretty cool for what it is and especially cool for a first game. Congrats! That's a major achievement! Great audio too. The only downside is that it ends so abruptly. Would have loved to see how you would have taken this game further. Keep making games! :)
Apr 27 17:03:40 7m 29s Bad Water ♥ 1 This is obviously a pretty unfinished entry, but what you did manage make is pretty interesting. I like the visuals and the concept of the movement. In it's current state it's just not really playable.
