Probably the longest intro I've ever seen, but it had funny bits. Good character art, sounds were good, controls were fluid. It would be cool if the guys reacted to being hit in some way - it was hard to know that you were successful until they just vanished. Also, it wasn't clear whether I was supposed to pick anything up to restore energy. Fun, though - nice work.

the intro is pretty long and the enemy can shoot through walls. But this game is pretty fun! Good work!

@mac-dragoness Hey! Thank you for taking time and actually leaving some feedback :D I know, it's so long.. i was rushing the voicing in the middle of the night and i didn't actually playtest it at the end, this jam was a deadly exciting experience and i would love to participate next time.

@dob Hey! Thanks! It was our first time to submit anything to LD and my friend was like "I know they are saying that intro is too long, BUT IT'S MY BABY!" :D The game has a lot stuff undone that we wanted to do... we set the bar too high for ourselves and tried our best, and we will do more next time!

Pretty funny :) And great job for a first time submission (it was also my first LD!)!

Nice game, it felt too sudden when 4 dudes are shooting at you after clicking skip XD and what's up with the red eyes on the broken glass door?

dioinecail 2017-08-03 05:31

@kalyrical @josehzz Thank you guys! Well i guess i just like to be sudden with things and for some reason i enjoy putting creepy eyes things in the dark.

Aaaaargh too many bullets! ahah XD I loved the story, maybe it is a little bit too long? BTW the game runs fluidly and I love the main character and sounds in general! Good work! :)

I would like to say that there aren't enough different enemies in your game but mine has the same problem x). It's a good game with nice graphics and music. Well done!

The controls feel good, they're very fluid and responsive. Very nice for your first submission, good job!

Good game. The graphics and music are nice and it controls well. The main problem with this game is that is hard to "tell things apart": the enemy pieces that you need to replenish energy (a better choice than typical "batteries" by the way) are hard to distinguish from the details of the background, and the colliders of the enemies and the lack of feedback of the bullets make difficult to know if you have hit the enemy or not.

Oh... that intro. And the skip button doesn't work. Beyond that the game's decent. Tight mechanics, for the most part. Art is nice. Good entry!

Nice background story in star wars style xP. This shoot'em up is nice but with more time you could have got more improvements. Background is a bit simple and repetitve but works well.

The only error I found is the enemy collision or time to kill them and that the player can exit the bottom of the window.

Good job :)

I liked the sound. The start is very hard, you in the middle and enemies shooting to you. It is a fun game, I liked the idea to different paths, maybe it would be nice to find different enemies, otherwise the different paths do not make a big different. Paths could be generated randomly in this case.

The collider of the enemies are not in the head, so you should shoot to the legs instead of head.

dioinecail 2017-08-03 23:56

It was my leadership that brought this game to a such unfinished state....

hengen 2017-08-04 00:07

Music and sound affects are pretty good, and the controls feel fluid and nice. However, the hit detection on the enemies are kinda wonky, and at times your bullets will go trough their entire upper body.

And the bug with not picking up scraps is still there for me, but other than that it is a really good game that i enjoyed very much! :D

paulo-brunassi 2017-08-04 00:23

I liked, and for a first submission it's very good. I think you should watch the JWs talk "the art of screenshake" that could improve the game a lot with not so much effort.

lamm 2017-08-04 04:38

I like the game, you made a grat job, keep doing games, Good Luck

pmilian 2017-08-04 22:45

The intro was waaaay too long ! I had a few glitches when scrolling from one level to the next. For instance I could go back to a previous level and I wouldn't see my character anymore.

Fun game nonetheless ! I loved the music !

Unfortunately I cannot play your Windows 64 bit game on my 32 bit machine, could you add another build?

megalink 2017-08-05 03:17

Nice game! The movement felt kind of slow, and I think that the bullets should go way faster. Some more enemy variety would have been nice as well. Other then that, I really liked how all the areas were connected, it felt like a world. Good job! :)

cornelia-xaos 2017-08-05 03:30

Interesting... I downloaded your source and built a version for Linux since I figured it'd be faster than asking you to make a build. :P I did notice what appeared to be batteries, but I couldn't pick any up.. so my energy kept running out really quickly... because.. SO MANY ENEMIES.. AND BULLETS.... EVERYWHERE... OMG...

The best part of it all, though? That intro... Truly magnificent. :P

dioinecail 2017-08-05 12:01

@cornelia-xaos i'm sorry, i didn't update the source code and thus it was all bugged back then. I've made a linux and windows x32 build, now i know that i should include those builds aswell, oh foolish me :)

davideperozzi 2017-08-06 11:01

Cool game! The graphics are well made and are looking fantastic. The only thing which bothered me was the transition between the parts of the map. These also appeared during a fight and were pretty annoying. That said.. it was fun after all and i enjoyed it. Well done! :)
