Loved it! At first I had no idea how to move or do anything but after a bit of trial and error I was leaping in the air with my arms waving about killing things with my awesome moustache. The conversations were a great touch too, overall it was super cool!

Really nice game, the concept is great.
I definitely think the controls can be improved but there's a nice Vlambeer vibe in it :>

The controls aren't the best and there isn't really any challenge, but I loved it regardless. :D
(Great soundtrack by the way)

wowzers! This game is hella fun, and feels great to play! Really slick atmosphere and the art is beyond adorable. The camera work is also excellent. I played with keyboard which was a little hard to get used to, but it works well. I do wish there were some enemies that presented a real scary threat that you might have to avoid or take out specifically. It also seems like my HP never went below 75%. That being said, really awesome game! Take all my stars you magnificent bastard!

There few similar ideas. Bud this one is most fun

Nice everything

Awesome! I really digged it, tho a score counter would have been nice, and it was very hard to die ;)

Oh my the music blew me out of the water! The best song I've heard this Ludum dare.
The graphics were awesome as well and the game was fun overall.
However I had trouble with the controls. Using an Xbox controller the movement of the tentacles seemed inverted. and flapped around but didn't have the feeling of really knowing what I was doing.
There also seemed to be no goal, so I lost motivation to continue. Dying turned out to be a challenge as the game seems to be a bit to easy.

But these are all minor points really I really think BLACKFESK is a great game. Good job!

HAHAHAHA, great game, although the controls are a bit crazy and the tentacles make no sense. it's all about WRECKING. Oh yeah and there is no challenge at all. But still hilarious. I enjoyed it a lot.

This was super-fun! Liked the infinite number of submarines hiding in the deep.

Great music and graphics!

uheartbeast 2015-08-26 16:27

Awesome!

OMG Great idea! One of the funniest and most entertaining LD games I've played. On top of that, the art and audio were fantastic!

Bravekat 2015-08-26 21:05

Super awesome game! High level of polish in all aspects, great job :D

leclaw 2015-08-27 00:31

Thank you all so much for the positive feedback and constructive criticism :D! We appreciate it a lot, and it really warms our hearts to get such praise!

eddy93 2015-08-27 20:08

Everything looks good: Art, audio, gameplay. Really good job.
Only after a while I didn;t really know what to do anymore other than jumping around and hitting several boats. Missed something like an achievement.
But overall great job

Nice moustache. The flavor text was great. Unfortunately I was so focused on playing that I didn't get to read the conversations. I also enjoyed the variety of vehicles thrown at you!

I felt that snapping the camera to an explosion was a bit too jarring, especially when it was off-screen (ex. when something you hit goes flying and hits another thing in the distance). The controls (keyboard) seem a bit difficult, but I got a bit better at them as I kept trying.

Overall very nice, lots of polish in the Jam Version!

roosterkite 2015-08-28 00:34

Neat game! Clever idea going with a sea monster. I also loved all the different enemies. Controls were a little weird, along with how the camera snapping to exploded enemies. And it needs some real challenge too! (I only played the jam version so I don't know if these aspects were changed.)

gamepopper 2015-08-28 19:16

This is ridiculously awesome! The physics, animations and even the looping main music is really fun and silly. My only grip is the controls, I don't think having the trigger buttons control the super jump and the rotation, especially since for me whenever I charge I also rotate at the same time.

guoboism 2015-08-29 02:15

Nice graphics! The atmosphere is decent!

Skövde represeeeeeent ;)

Best music I've heard in a Ludum Dare game. So catchy. Not to mention, those graphics are stunning, something about the colours/effects you used really make the game pop out from the screen! Loved the satisfying crunch you get when destroying ships and other vehicles. Just needs work on the controls a bit. Great basis for a game though.

drzanuff 2015-08-31 13:31

Solid entry. Art and music pretty good. Fun gameplay and innovative controls!

wallmasterr 2015-09-10 21:45
