Cool game ! Great graphics and good music. The mix genre is pretty fun.

Great graphics and music!

This game bring me to my childhood. Cool game bro.

stormburpee 2018-04-24 10:07

The artwork, music and scope of this game for 72hours is amazing! Keep up the good work!

shrinjoy-fox 2018-04-24 10:08

love your game man good job also check out our game here https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/

Your game is awesome! Good job, guys. Especially I like music and art :ะท

giovannibarrottu 2018-04-24 10:22

the art and music is really good! the gameplay is a bit lackluster though, the animations are slow and unresponsive, and the collisions are buggy, especially with melee. Jumping onto platforms also didn't seem to work sometimes.

The atmosphere was really great, but the gameplay needs some polishing.

darylsteak 2018-04-24 11:16

The art was fantastic! I also impressed at how much you guys achieved with only 72 hours and enjoyed the game even if it was just short of excellent.

Pretty cool game! I played until the world blew up. I think i may have caused that due to my obsessive devotion to an idle goddess, but I can't be sure.

helpcomputer 2018-04-24 18:39

Very cool idea, and I love me some cyberpunk! Well done!

very-bad-bunny 2018-04-24 23:24

What incredible art and music! I'm a cyberpunk fan so I'm a suspect to talk. But I thought the game was a little too easy. I almost did not use the weapon at a distance, and I finish the game without visiting the girl. I think the "tamagotchi" side was not very clear.

Great game, I searched specifically for you (@aihasto to be more specific) after your last LD entry which I absolutely loved. So, this one is great too and I really like it - the atmosphere and feeling of the game is awesome (is the city really burning more and more?!)

Keep up the good work!

beren5000 2018-04-25 05:05

excelent, nice gameplay, nice mechanics and the art and music are sooo good, great job

nardandas 2018-04-25 05:12

Incredible art! It was incredible alone and it set the mood really well. The game fit together really really well. No complaints there. The only issue was that the application of the theme is really just interpretation, it doesn't feel like there were any considerations made game-wise.

robowarrior1982 2018-04-25 15:21

Very good pixel art! Nice musics! The principle works really well! At the level of history and principle it makes me think of the "shadow of colossus" (without the boss). Love that game!

jlv 2018-04-25 15:24

When I saw a Bandcamp link on your submission, I immediately had a good feeling, and man my guts were right ! From the amazing pixel art to the soundtrack and sound effects, this is an aesthetical gem, the likes of which you do not often see in a game jam !

Gameplay-wise, I also had a blast, with the game being better balanced than one might expect, and the fighting actually feeling great (I fell in love with the feel of the axe !). A really really great take on classical metroidvanias ! Are you guys perchance fans of pandora's tower ?

waraiko 2018-04-25 16:24

Thank you everyone for your kind worlds! I agree about polishing gameplay and hope we get to improve it someday.

@JLV Yes, at least two of us from the team love this game, i even considered more monstrous girl, but we wanted to try something not so similiar to style of pandora's tower

bentekiller 2018-04-25 19:17

Liked the pixel art but hated the controls! And dont get why I have to switch between weapons and, not just have two buttons that to each do an attack! I dislike having my hand so low on the keyboard, it felt off, and irritated my wrist, and why not just have it up close to qwerty! Last thing, but when I tried to get onto the elevator when you down on bottom floor, then you can't just walk in too it if you're going in from the left, and I didn't make it in time to rescue her! Sorry it's not because I didn't like your game but I just didn't see anyone else mention any off my concerns so I would like to inform you!

prodigalson 2018-04-25 19:40

Nice job with the aesthetics and the animations and responsiveness of the controls felt good and fluid. Music set the mood quick nicely. I did have a little troubleshot with the change weapon mechanics and I died really quickly at the end. I think the enemies were missing some knock back damage since my melee range is so short and my range weapon is dry. Still, neat game

hatchet 2018-04-25 21:28

Fantastic sprite work and animations :) Camera movement is a bit weird when you turn sharply, but other than that, mechanics feel good! When zombies hit you, perhaps it would be cool if they knocked you back a bit, since it happened too often to me that I'm standing in the same place as the zombie and I'm unable to hit them, but they can hit me.

rayne 2018-04-26 03:27

Man, the art of this game is amazing. Everything is placed exactly where it's supposed to be. Amazing job, I'll definitely follow you

As a small critic, I would tweak the color palette so that the enemies don't merge with the background. There was not enough contrast there. Anyways, amazing job!

ja-viera 2018-04-27 00:08

Very interesting concept and nice world building, I liked exploring your city and the art was very pretty. I'm not sure I understood the game goals though, the controls were a bit clunky and the character unresponsive at times.

2018-04-27 15:00

That was some of the best art I've seen so far - loved it. The music also really hit the spot - great work!

victorcrafty 2018-04-27 15:14

Cool game

kami-86 2018-04-27 16:31

This can and need to be a full game. (It's all ready one, but you get me).

#### POSITIVE - Really good feeling and the dark mood of everything - The graphics are really nice. - The close range combat was good. - Clear objectives and world map had a good size.

#### OBSERVATION - The pistol work with the resourse you need to collect, at the first I don't get it... So maybe it's my fault. But, even then, I think some others has that issue.

[x] Save her Nice work, really enjoy this.

themonsterfromthedeep 2018-04-28 19:40

I'm afraid I can't really tell what to do to win? I think I activated all four nodes, and then the resources in the top-right corner ran out so I died.

But this game is really polished -- good graphics and gameplay.

The title music offends my ears slightly with the way it goes almost completely silent at places.

deepterror 2018-04-28 21:44

Wooowwwww what incredible art and musics - it's really beautiful !

Regarding the gameplay that's not my personnal preference - but I took fun to play it - so well done :slight_smile:

macdoom 2018-04-29 06:09

Is amazing how much you achieved on the given time! The graphics are really cool and the world extense enough to keep on exploring. Cool entry!

shivur 2018-04-29 08:03

Very good mood.

waraiko 2018-04-29 09:25

@TheMonsterFromTheDeep After four nodes you have to return back to the girl and interact with her

hisfantor 2018-04-30 11:15

the pixel art is awesome and sets, together with the sound design a very good mood. combat felt kinda strange at some points but works for me and wasn't to hard, especially with the points to reload health

le-american 2018-05-02 23:49

i love the art! the gameplay wasnt intuitive for me but it was pretty fun :)

alineo 2018-05-06 11:06

Great game ! I love the artstyle with the musics You game has the potential of a full game !

cristiano-m-garcia 2018-05-06 20:05

Good job! Cool game!

I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.

I hope you continue with the project.

That is one nice game. Gameplay is solid. Jumping feels a tad sluggish (you seem to be on the moon).

sharks 2018-07-13 21:25

OMG I can't beleive I missed this! I have been listening to your soundtrack for months and I can't beleive I did'nt see the link until now!

emmitt 2018-07-18 03:20

@sharks Thanks, mate. So glad you found the game and enjoyed it)
