Runs fine here; gameplay and (especially) music might leave something to be desired. I feel like you had the core of an explorer/puzzler, only you made a design decision to avoid either of those, and just have the player go around collecting stuff. Odd.
Also, it'd be nice if your music loop was slightly longer than 2 seconds. Turned a reasonable sonic wallpaper into a major distractant.
Really feel like this would have been stronger with puzzle elements.
windows version only has .py files in it..
Extremely simple but effective way of adding a sense of exploration and progress. Collecting blood isn't particularly challenging, but there's still the excitement of unlocking new areas based on earlier achievements.
Some moving traps would obviously have been nice. Music was quite repetitive, but not bad enough to mute. The background graphics look like diarrhea, so I'll deduct one point there.
oh my god that music. it sounded like at any second it'd break out into some sort of awesome tribal cave jam, but it NEVER DID.
this game would have been so much better if you had given the bat more fluttery controls to add some challenge/weight.
There's no binary in the Windows version?
No binary in the windows version, but it ran ok as I had the pre-requisites installed. Like adam_smasher said, if the bat had fluttery controls, or possibly gravity, it would have made things far more interesting.
It was a decent exposition of level design, though the gameplay was not so interesting. I really wanted that funky tribal cave jam to start, too. There wasn't any danger in the game either... No challenge for experienced gamers who don't make silly mistakes.
Got through it. Thanks for not making me start completely over when dying.
You sure talk down about it. Sure it might be wanting, but seriously, no need to apologize on the win screen! Music gets sort of annoying pretty fast, though.
unable to run it since I am missing both python and pygame
