AWESOME

I was really looking forward to this one! Is it only Windows?

zeejfps 2015-04-20 02:54

I could not really tell how the monsters were killing me. I got stuck on like the 3rd of 4th lvl when I was trying to walk up the stairs I got insta killed, other than that its pretty fun and a nice concept.

wcwedin 2015-04-20 02:55

Climbing stairs seems like a fated death in a lot of situations, depending on whether there's a goblin that you can't see facing the exit point. Am I doing something wrong?

uheartbeast 2015-04-20 02:58

Unfortunately it is only on windows.

You can hold the teleport button down after going through a door in order to aim at the goblins. The game is very difficult.

Great game, but it is some times easy to mistake the character staying in the void for dying when a goblin attacks you, but it was a great game, especially for 48 hours!

Cool game. I like the atmosphere and graphics. Would be cool as an auto runner.

fuzzywuzzie 2015-04-20 03:48

Really really well done! The feel was perfect, and teleporting around destroying things was *a lot* of fun! My only issue was that the enemies were a little *too* quick on the draw.

SO GOOD

The controls feel so right. The level design is spot on and the boss enemy was fantastically designed.

just amazing

Oh, those mosters to hard for me. They kill me in one moment. And why I can't teleport to the second floor? If I can teleport through the obstacles then I expect to teleport though anything, including ceiling.

uheartbeast 2015-04-20 04:21

You can teleport through anything that has an open path. (That is why you can go through corners)

Really great idea! The boss was quite difficult, and it took me a while to figure out I should break the pots to make him easier. The controls feel great and the teleportation is very satisfying.

Good graphics and mood. Kinda hard for me, but fun until I got killed and killed and killed :)...

2015-04-20 12:20

Very cool mechanic and smooth gameplay . Only complaint i had is that it was a bit unclear when monsters agroed to you . fun game overall

ym 2015-04-20 12:35

You need lightning reflexes, the enemies who are at the veeeeerrrrry edge of the screen still mostly obscured by the vignette keep killing me. Exiting stairs near an enemy is also a pretty unfortunate situation.

Other than the gruelling difficulty right off the bat, it's pretty nice. I like.

ambi 2015-04-20 12:37

It's a fun game. Minor annoyance for me is how the enemies have zero reaction time, or maybe I'm just bad at the game. The difficulty level rose a little too fast. It's very reminiscent of Hotline Miami gameplay.

tompudding 2015-04-20 13:04

Superb presentation, very slick and a great idea. It was too hard for me though, it's very frustrating to get sent back to the start of an area!

guigrillo13 2015-04-20 16:49

Have some really fun playing this game!!
Awesome job ben

danidre14 2015-04-20 17:56

Waaah! I don't like this game! The enemies are too hard! =^=

Just kidding, but I find it unfair! XD

Fun game. A bit on the scary / creepy side, but overall, nice.

Thank you for participating.

uheartbeast 2015-04-20 18:41

Yeah, the game is easier when you find out that you can hold down the left mouse button to avoid enemy attacks but I think most people don't learn that mechanic. Thanks for the feedback.

tselmek 2015-04-20 19:10

Awesome! What else to say. In more details, I particularly love the menu system and the mechanics feel really great to play. I know the game is meant to be hard but I sometimes feel like it is a bit more unfair than difficult. The graphics and animations are amazing yet the shadows foten are a bit off. Amazing job.

Good luck!

aske 2015-04-20 21:41

Love it!

johnnwfs 2015-04-21 02:09

Great game. Love the movement and monster dynamics. Very complete. Fun figuring out the boss.

plasterphantom 2015-04-21 10:51

Very cool game! I've really enjoyed this. The controls feel fluid, it's visually interesting and there's a good mood set. The boss battle was well designed and it's great how you learn about the game using trial and error. Well done!

sadsmile 2015-04-21 12:30

Wow. I would buy this game.

nameoftheuser 2015-04-21 23:24

Great job, i was watching the stream :3

reismahnic 2015-04-22 01:45

SO GOOD!
Loved the teleportation mechanic.
Great visuals and vibe.
Really just a great time!

noxnode 2015-04-23 02:51

THIS GAME IS AWESOME! So smooth, no bugs, love the difficulty. My best time is 50! :D Speed runs ftw!

uheartbeast 2015-04-23 12:25

Wow! 50 is insane! Well done.

noxnode 2015-04-23 16:20

Thanks, like you say it's a lot easier once you get used to holding down the mouse button cuz you're basically invincible. I'd love to see more levels added to this game.

uheartbeast 2015-04-23 20:51

Yeah, I need to come up with a good way of teaching that mechanic to the player. It is a very important part of the game. I'm seriously considering developing it further.

gabemeister1201 2015-04-25 00:45

Wow, this is a great game! One of my favorites for the comp! I can't wait to see more done with this!

sorlok 2015-04-25 17:22

The teleportation mechanic was cool, but the void mechanic made it really interesting. Great job!

landosystems 2015-05-02 01:44

You aren't kidding about the 'extremely difficult' bit... It felt like there were a lot of unexpected/unexplained deaths. That said, the style is really cool and the gameplay is unique and interesting, so great work overall!

mike-cullingham 2015-05-04 01:54

Punishingly hard but fun. Some screen shake or some other feedback when you're in the void for too long could be a cool addition. Very nice job.

2015-05-11 20:59

Great game, very hard even with your stalling tip mentioned in the video :) Must get
