Well done! The graphics and gameplay are amazing ;)
For some reason, the game lags terribly every couple of seconds for me.
couldnt move
Great
Oh, good stuff, stylish graphics, nice music, the context switching every 10 seconds is a neat twist!
Loved the gauntlet style game, and the graphics were fantastic.
Cool game!
Needs some time to get in though...
This will probably do well, and I think it has merit, despite a number of irksome flaws:
* Having both the platformer red key and the Gauntlet red key makes one or the other unwinnable.
* Gauntlet area is overly dangerous and enemy-infested compared to other areas.
* Gauntlet area preserves some of the original game's tense health sinks (rapid-spawning enemies) which feel badly misplaced in a one-hit-kill game like this.
* Reaching the locked doors in the wrong order makes the game very tedious.
* Other than providing invincibility in the platformer, the Pac-Man segment has no real purpose other than increasing score in an unrewarding fashion. (Had it provided invincibility to the Gauntlet area instead, where enemies are prolific, I'd find it much more interesting.)
* No checkpoints!!
These are my feedback bullets.
The game looks great, and promises a great fun, so I'm looking forward to playing it. Unfortunately, it's unplayable for me at the moment. The game lags terribly on my machine (a Win7-x64-based laptop), I have barely been able to reach the first coin :S
(Oh, I opened the source folder out of curiosity to take a look at the code and it was empty)
Stylish and fun. Gauntlet portion was definitely the funnest. Unfortunately on my best run, I used up the gold key and got myself stuck indefinitely and wasn't able to finish the game.
Excellent game, and I'm totally in love of the Music. Did you make some music like this ?
Game crashed for me when I beat the final world. That did make me kind of disappointed.
I liked the game apart from that and I think it have a nice take on the theme.
If it was in an arcade, this would be the game that I'd put my quarters into :)
Really good.
Too bad it hangs when you complete it.
For some reason, the game lags terribly every couple of seconds for me also.
Some additional things after beating it. It seems like a lot of my deaths were from a bug where you can't open locked doors in Gauntlet-mode. You keep trying and trying, and sometimes works, unfortunately by that time, the ghosts are ready to insta-kill you. That, and to beat the game, you need a very specific order of unlocking things in each mode, which can be frustrating since you have to play the game over and over to find that out. Again, still love the game though, enough to beat it, and comment twice :)
Really, really wanted to play this (got impression from the feedback that it is awesome, and it just looks great, with the aesthetic reminding me of VVVVVV), BUT, it crashes every time I press UP arrow with a divide by zero error :S
I'm running on Windows 7, x64 if I'm not mistaken...
Very nice work. The take on the theme is highly original and creative, the presentation is good, the gameplay is hectic...
Amazing game! I love the gameplay changing every 10 seconds mechanic!
The fixed version works for me now,yay!
I'm happy to see that the wait was totally worth it. The combination of the 10s countdown with the three different gameplay mechanics works beautifully. And great polish, too. I love the retro art style.
One of the best entries I've played so far. Great job!
Woohoo, Gauntlet!! This is very fun, good job!
WOW, really grate game! I am starting to thing I cannot stand to fight such excellent games with mine...
WOW COOL GAME! it switches between game types :D and also the gameplay is smooth :D great job :DDD!!!
Awesome entry! Although it's a bit hard, how do I avoid the ghost in the platformer-part?
The "source" folder in your ZIP-file is empty, BTW.
Super cool idea! I love how everything comes together! And the music fits perfectly, totally let's me restart after every fail. (Jana)
It's like a brain context switch! Love it
Kinda reminds me of FleeBuster by ChevyRay. My Score: 1980
Good job!
This is lovely!
The combination of the different types is great. Music fits really well too :). Also love the sinning-coin faux-3d-effect
I got stuck in the red-wall-room with the red key. I didn't open the re wadll on the first try, and afterwards I couldn't open it either.
Love the idea! Seems a little easy to die when you swap games though - if you start right next to a ghost and immediately you walk right into it :(
Nice retro style, everything is smooth and well responding! Personally, I would have rather played those games one at a time but you had to find some way to implement the theme.
Nice! Much fun was had! And the music is sweet!
Really love this game!! :D
Really like game switching every 10 seconds and the stylish graphics. The game plays smooth on my computer.
Very nice!! You easily get 5 stars for fun, very well done :D
I played the "fixed" version but it still hanged when I finished all three games.
Also using the cherry with spacebar(removes nearby enemies) is not listed in any of the controls, I learned about it by accident.
the most polished mini-games game I've seen so far! Congrats!
Nice game reminds me of Chevy Ray Entry to LudumDare couple of years ago :) where the game is changed :D
I like the execution of the concept. Have seen other games trying to do similar things and this is by far the best game I played out of those.
One of the most professional and polished entries I've played so far in this LD. Great concept, nice retro style (makes me nostalgic for "Gauntlet"), and excellent graphics and sound.
Unfortunately, it's also very hard. I still haven't beaten it, though I intend to get back to it at some point. This in itself isn't a flaw. A bigger problem is that there's quite a bit of difference in difficulty between the different worlds: the "Pacman" world is so easy you almost have to try to get killed, whereas the Metroidvania platformer is a lot harder.
Still, that's about my one nitpick about this game. Congratulations on a very good entry!
A great idea, and well-done! I couldn't seem to get the hang of it, though.
excellent game. very hard, but fun. thanks! the platforming is the most annoying and hard as there is no way to defend yourself from that single ghost. lol not that that's bad, i the blue and orange levels were getting intense! Once i managed to control the red level the others got much harder. (i died on pac man)
Audio and graphics were great! Really challenging and fun! :D
