Windows is direct link to file
The visuals are awesome, but there's not much of a gameplay.
The graphics and the theme were very well implemented. It was hard to remember which form was good for which environment. Also some more sound would be nice. Good work!
You know somtimes games are just
art for art :D BTW Cool stealh game Ziege :D
The graphics are super nice! Not really a gameplay I can dig though.
Ok people i will focus on gameplay next time or maybe someone need a graphic guy for his team in LD36? :)
Your game have really good graphics, but i didn't understand how you play it properly.
From an art standpoint the game is really great. But from a gameplay standpoint the game is 100% random. It's impossible to consistently play the game if you have to depend on the randomness of the world on top of the randomness of a character. I actually beat the game by just staying one character until the end. From my experience every time I tried to change characters I typically ended up dying in two or three clicks.
This is a good theme, but I don't understand the game mechanic :(
Art is good, but not much gameplay. =]
Nice art! Definitely is a bit too much like roulette - the house usually wins...
As the title implies, it is Roulette - you have to be lucky to get through to the end.* However, that means there's not much choice you have and thus a victory doesn't feel rewarding.
A possible improvement might be that you can anticipate the upcoming world and roll on getting a character that may suit the next world better. In the current setup you get damaged by rolling a bad character in the current world, so maybe a transition phase between worlds to reroll would be better.
On the upside, I like your art style and the animation; and the introduction adds a nice bit of flavor. The parallax scrolling in the background looks nice, too. :)
* We figured that the "jungle man" would have the best chances of survival because the least worlds hurt him. He lead us to our only victory so far. ^^
Awesome graphics, but I didn't really understand the gameplay part. Is the shape that you turn into completely random? If so, I guess it's impossible to play it with a strategy.
Music would have been nice.
Same comments as from others - really nice work on the graphics but randomness on its own just doesn't make for engaging gameplay. Also sound would be good.
I had absolutely no idea what was happening, but I actually thought this game was pretty cool! It reminded me of some crazy anime. I liked what it was going for, a sort of choose your own adventure based on a roulette wheel spin. The graphics were fantastic. Really unique idea, so although it was a bit weird, I thought it was good.
Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description
Complete entry!
Awesome artwork at all! Really cool animations and pretty neat gameplay!
Well done!
The game is too random. I didn't see a way to impact the results in one way or another.
