Good music, not so good controls.

Impressive graphics for a jam game! Very difficult to time the guitar-throws right, though--had to make several passes sometimes. Even so, managed to get the quota and go back to base.

Nice looking game, tough controls though. Impressive for a solo effort.

floko 2012-12-18 19:47

nice, but kinda confusing. Maybe placing something that will indicate where the guitar will land . That would make the game a bit easier to understand =]
But i agree , it's pretty impressive for a solo effort! keep it up!

Great graphics, impressive for a solo entry. The controls are a bit difficult to get used to, though. Maybe an aiming point would be helpful.

Great look, great concept, love the demon surfing a guitar :) Not so keen on the free camera and delay in throwing. Elements are all there for a great little game, just needs tuning. Be nice to have ramps so you could get some air...

mase 2012-12-19 01:02

Pretty compelling stuff. I think it could use some ramps and half-pipes.

Except for the controls, it's a decent entry, nice graphics and audio !

So much friggin innovation! I can't handle it. Yeah the controls are a bit awkward and I don't know why. Maybe it's because we can't fully control the dude but we can fully control the camera? I don't know how to explain it. It just takes a lot of time to get used to. Great job on the models and the overall concept is hilarious. Great work!

The controls were really the only part of the game I didn't like. Everything else was pretty cool.

arakade 2012-12-20 01:03

Simply, Wow! This was so good I played 3 rounds :-)
Throw in a turbo boost (i.e. tweak the driving experience slightly) and reduce (but not eliminate) the throw latency (perhaps a little anim where the demon readies the next one like a javelin causing a delay?) and it'd be better. Some challenges, etc, building music with each convert, some cop-priests trying to exorcise you... this could go on and on :-)
p.s. I've fixed my game since your review <nudge, nudge> :-D

Music is good! You rock!

dr_soda 2012-12-20 07:03

The mouse motion controlling the position of the main camera was incredibly confusing. I played an entire round of the game looking side-on at the devil, feeling like I had no way to aim or shoot, because I didn't know the mouse would move the camera.

Once I played the second round things got quite a bit easier. Not sure if it's just my computer but the performance chugged really hardcore.

All that said, the music was really good, and the models and animations were stellar! It brought forth a great atmosphere.

krasse 2012-12-20 13:21

My current dominating deadly sin: Envy
I want to be able to make animations like that in such a short time.
The music is awesame.
Controls need a bit of tuning and a reticle would be really helpful.

cmaster 2012-12-20 19:24

That's a pretty crazy amount of texturing and modelling for 3 days. Good work.

feili 2012-12-21 00:30

impressive speedrun for a solo work! the controls are not so cool though, and I ran out of ammo quickly and spent a lot of time skating around unable doing nothing

samoojamies 2012-12-21 08:46

Great graphics as always. Good job with the soundtrack. Leaves room for more features like making tricks and stuff. Good job!

niavlys 2012-12-22 18:07

I didn't find the controls that annoying, but the "driving" experience could (should) be improved, for sure. Great graphics and nice idea!

eni 2012-12-22 18:39

Neat concept, excellent graphics, controls could stand to be a bit tighter. I also felt that the cool down after the position flip was a bit too long. Also, an inverted mouse option for those of us who find it physically painful to play non-inverted would've been nice. :)

matthias_zarzecki 2012-12-22 19:55

This is a great concept! Music is fitting too :)

The entire mouse-swivel-setup is horrible though, the game moves way to fast to do on-the-fly calculations

Jeremias 2012-12-22 22:27

Good music, great graphics, but the controls are very difficult. Even if I stand in front of someone, there is a chance that I miss him with my guitar :D

pereubu 2012-12-22 23:47

impressive 3D work for 48h, gameplay is a bit repetitive, i suppose faster moves and throws would have added a bit more of a nervous gameplay D:

triplefox 2012-12-23 04:19

I had to get right up against the guys to hit them.

pierrec 2012-12-23 08:25

Controls might be better if the camera stood behind the evil guitar surfer. Anyway, I loved the theme interpretation and the 3D graphics are amazing.

bouyer 2012-12-23 21:36

This is really awesome once you get used to it!

the-jack 2012-12-28 06:37

Very impressive character work, even for 72 hours.

jackspinoza 2012-12-28 13:20

woah, beautiful graphics and I thought the delay leading up to him throwing the guitar at an off-kilter angle added something to the gameplay. A few times he started spinning round in circles and I had to restart but that is probably my fault, also controls bla bla bla. Good-blinking-stuff.

beerman 2012-12-30 17:46

Great idea with really nice presentation. With a little tuning of the controls and camera this could be an awesome game.

fishbrain 2013-01-04 15:39

Found controls difficult - but looks and sounds are great!

azurenimbus 2013-01-05 21:45

Looks great, sounds great, it's a great concept, and I laughed out loud when I corrupted my first soul. Bur for God's (?) sake, tweak the controls, they can be so frustrating!
