Nice game, I like the graphics and flashy explosions. I found it hard to aim at your enemies though, but in most cases they die offscreen anyway, if they don't there's a good chance they will hit me. Also, I think bullets go through the walls, or is that intended?
The game is nice, although difficulty level gets up way too fast and it becomes way too hard. There is not enough feedback when dying/killing and for falling platforms. Also dying out of spawning on wrong position (on falling platform) is wrong.
By feedback I couldn't see the 'essence' effect first, on the second run I could see the effect... weird, might be something wrong on my hardware side though.
I found the music to be enjoyable, as well as the essence effects The way the level is laid out, it feels like this could use a double jump or wall bounce mechanic to make the movement more fluid.
My game was very similar in core mechanic of (IE: collect the things to make enemies harder) but i feel like you did a better job then i did in planning your ramping up of difficulty.
147 essence! kaboom! Great game, super simple, yet I enjoyed the mindless killing of ragdoll enemies! Not much to say, it's simple, it's fun, it's good :) Good job! :D
Not bad. My biggest complaint would be that jumping is a little awkward and unnatural.
It's cool to see somebody using Unreal Engine, given that it can do some really interesting stuff. However, if I'm not mistaken, you are using the default Unreal Engine character model thing? If so, I would definitely recommend replacing it with a custom character model -- although making a character model during Ludum Dare is not exactly a simple feat.
@themonsterfromthedeep Thanks man, I love Unreal Engine and use it for all my projects. Yes, I did use the default character, didn't manage to create a custom one in time.
Nice game, the controls and graphics are smooth. I'd say the menu could use some nicer buttons but it works so its just a small criticism. Good job overall.
It is a simple and fun little platform game. I love the music and the graphics is okay. Overall a fine LD game.
I'm a sucker for 2.5D games and I enjoyed the perspective on this one. Camera should be tweaked a bit to allow for some dead space before tracking the player, in my opinion. Gameplay wise, I felt like a running turret! So long as I held down the button I was unstoppable! lol. Nice touch on having the player respond where they died rather than all the way at the beginning and the rag dolls lingering for a bit is always fun to watch. Nice work especially doing this all by yourself
Cool game. The levels were randomized? Sometimes it felt there was no way to continue. It was quite fun nonetheless.
@ambi Thanks for the feedback. Yes, the level is being generated as you go and sometimes it does a poor job so you can't progress unfortunately.
cool
It was fun to jump around and to collect the essence, but my problem was, that most of the times when I saw an enemy I died. That's why I just shoot the whole time, because there was no reload, and killed this way all the enemies. The rest was really great. I liked the 3D models and the graphics. Nice Game ;)
I love this kind of game, cool. But I think you had to add a couple of more difficult opponents that would make the player to combine the jump with the attack
I would assume not, but does this by any chance have VR support? When I started it, it launched my oculus launcher. Anyhow, the game was interesting... Somehow polished and unpolished at the same time. Game play was a little boring in my opinion, but it looked very nice with the animations and ragdolls :)
I played soccer as a kid. Now I bet on sports. And that's how I make good money. The main thing here is choosing the right platform. I also like sports betting. It is good that on the https://www.betsofa.com/ all betting options are available. And payments always go to the recipient. You can follow the live broadcast of the event directly on the website.
