Oh man, I so wanted to try this, but the file is not available. Dropbox 404.

croewens 2018-04-24 23:16

Dudeeee, what a bummer. I got so hyped scrolling down over the artwork but it appears the file is not available :(

finally i found your game! and... get funny bug: if you load pistol make one try and then put pistol in inventory you can shoot you self every time when you try pistol with out pistol in your hand) btw really interesting game with cool music and graphic but i think start pistol is too damage full or hero need have hp regeneration from start)

rs11s21n 2018-04-25 12:55

okay i think i rich end when take all skill points... btw i get some more bugs if it's interesting for you i can type what kind of (if not forget them))

alexander-danilovsky 2018-04-26 19:43

Guys! You as always on top! Well done!

plusminus 2018-04-27 09:42

It's fun at start, but after 4th room it became kinda boring - I could headtank 5 of 10 my bullets, so I just loaded 5 of them and pressed q again.

please check out my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/ssss

Super cool! Original idea + nice mash up. Feels super polished too. Don't know if I understood the spell tree fully and took me a few tries to realize that I had to load the gun first, but after 5mins I was way into it. Nice job! (Also, I'd host that file on Itch.io if it were me...)

jamfella 2018-04-27 17:50

Top notch execution. The graphics style is amazing. Colors, animations, and details in all those icons. Good job.

ramza 2018-04-27 20:25

Really solid entry. Fun and original. I really enjoyed the graphics and music too. Great job!

travischen 2018-04-27 21:48

Super pretty game!

skigfx 2018-04-28 07:48

Лучший проект из всего, что попадалось!

bauxite 2018-04-28 09:34

Fantastic graphics and gameplay! The idea is solid as well. But after a while I often ended up in those situations where you have only a few HP left and there isn't anything else you can do to regain health except play roulette, with often deadly consequences. Might be intended, who knows. I also have to say the music got annoying after a while.

arzi 2018-04-28 14:11

Wow. Just wow.

hisfantor 2018-04-28 21:21

that's perfect great idea and the pixel art is awesome, also the items and skills create an interesting mood(more fun than sad)

mutatedsoftware 2018-04-29 01:52

Super cool. The animations in particular were lovely. Had a great time with the game!

gonz0 2018-04-29 02:56

Beautiful little nugget of a game. So well rounded , a level of polish you don't see in many games. super fun to play , and the upgrade tree is spectacular. 10/10 good job!

gonz0 2018-04-29 02:57

Wow you guys did super cop hero , I loved that game!! Great stuff coming out of you guys! Keep it up!

hermeses 2018-04-29 13:17

You nailed the combination of the games xD It's very fun, and I love the art, especially the animations of the Knight. Great Work!!

honey 2018-04-29 14:12

I found what seems to me as bug - I bought something in the shop, equipped it in my inventory, when suddenly my money went to zero and stopped increasing. Very beautiful game, great sounds and brilliant mash-up idea!

sprngr 2018-04-29 14:40

This was wonderful. I loved the concept, definitely a unique one among all the entries. Visuals and audio were on point, I really love everything about it. I find myself (had to take a break to review) just trying again and again to beat the bullet. Fantastic work!

riordan 2018-04-29 15:07

A really unique and interesting mashup of genres. I love the choice of palette, though at times it does make distinguish the various visual elements hard. Once you get used to the game though, it's fine.

Sound effects could make this a bit more interesting but, the game in itself works just fine without without them.

Overall, I seriously enjoyed this entry. Probably one of the games I really enjoyed. :)

felixmreeve 2018-04-29 18:24

I love it! Was really hard but that didn't stop me from trying a few times. I loved the presentation and sound!

huminaboz 2018-04-30 05:55

Well that was super fun. Some of the interface was a little confusing as to what it did and had trouble figuring out how to regain mana. But great innovation and you nailed the theme. Impressive how much polish was done on the rpg mechanics in the given time. Great job.

samurai-ducks 2018-04-30 07:47

Really interesting concept! I found it quite fun for the first couple of rounds but then it gets a bit repetitive. I had a hard time understanding the smaller text but that might just be me. Awesome graphics though!

bigaston 2018-04-30 09:54

This is a fantastic game ! The mix is a very good idea and the art is beatifull!

tigerj 2018-04-30 16:30

It's really fun and gives me some anxiety. I did get stuck at the beginning when I opened the shop and didn't see the close button. I think it might not stand out. I also thought clicking outside the UI panel would close or pressing escape.

Once I was able to get past that I had a blast!

ted 2018-04-30 17:02

Nailed the core mechanic. So tense!

wert 2018-04-30 17:42

shoot right through my heart :heart:

ludipe 2018-05-01 10:25

Loved the core concept, taking a pure luck-based system and adding ways to tweak chances in your favor created a very interesting experience. Played quite a few times. Feels good to try new strategies and you really nailed how to build up tension before every trigger.

Super well done, original and polished :-)

maximbegunov 2018-05-01 12:27

Very addictive. Great graphics and music!

elmeri 2018-05-01 16:08

Awesome game, I really enjoy playing it! Nice graphics and animation, gratz !

schu 2018-05-02 01:50

Great graphics and audio. The UI took me awhile to understand but I loved the way you incorporated moving in the map

relsqui 2018-05-02 04:57

Maybe the most succinct praise I can give this game is that I keep coming back to play it some more when I should be rating other games. :P There's just enough strategy to keep me wanting to experiment, while still having enough luck that I keep losing anyway, lol. Impressively well balanced for how little time you had to test it, and of course great art. :) I did have a little trouble figuring out what to do at first -- like, literally what I was supposed to click on to get the game going -- but once I found the gun interface the rest clicked into place immediately. Great work!

mrerdalural 2018-05-02 14:22

Awesome idea awesome game! Thank you for making this game!

kurt-roembke 2018-05-02 15:52

Wow! Great game. Awesome visuals. I'd love to hear some music change when interacting with the gun, both loading and firing. But obviously it's a jam! The gameplay is addicting and the art is super well done! <3

randomhuman 2018-05-02 17:59

So gooood! The art is absolutely gorgeous and the gameplay seems to be incredibly deep - perhaps a little too difficult at the beginning - and very addictive. I think the music is a little bit too light and cheerful. I guess it is quite a humorous concept, but something more tense might be better. Really great overall though, incredible work!

pixel-boy 2018-05-02 19:33

Cool game, the concept is addictive, the art is cool, nice work !

mortus 2018-05-02 19:54

That's the kind of a game I see myself going back to for months after LD ends. Great job and congratulations!

samuelsousa 2018-05-03 07:57

Cool concept. Very polished! Tons of upgrades. Nice pixel art! Music is neat suits the it very well.

mike-cullingham 2018-05-03 15:02

Really clever mash up for the theme. Cool graphics and music. Nice work.

epiic-lesgougnafiers 2018-05-03 17:09

Unexpected game, and it's really super cool & funny. Nice and polished concept, well done !

synedraacus 2018-05-05 11:36

It's like you took the basic roguelike idea of strategically pushing your luck and thrown out all the unnecessary stuff like monsters and traps. And then made a good game from it. Damn well done.

crimson 2018-05-05 13:29

Fun game, very interesting combination of themes! Great work!

markram 2018-05-05 16:00

puppetmaster 2018-05-05 20:37

What a crazy genre combination. The game is very well implemented and super fun to play.

I think it's a shame that you haven't found time to rate other games yet. If you still find time attached a link to our game https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/astropover

unfinished 2018-05-06 11:21

Seriously? How great is this game? 8x5 stars.. best game played so far on ludum dare!

houruck 2018-05-06 18:18

I fumbled around with the UI like an idiot at first, but got addicted to it quickly. :O

peachtreeoath 2018-05-06 18:49

Talk about "just one more turn"...

I always love Team FQ games, you guys make consistently great games that push design boundaries. This game is no exception. At first I was pretty turned off by the full RNGness of the game, but after I explored the skill trees and equipment I realize you can hone it the way you want. It also gives the player a chance to customize the game based on how much of a risktaker they are. Addictive entry that kept me playing for a very long time (still trying to beat it).

lost-dutchman-software 2018-05-07 16:52

Its the prettiest Skinner Box I've ever played. Very addictive game play keeps you wanting to try one more time. The level up skill tree was a great addition!

peachtreeoath 2018-05-07 20:34

Got it, there's some exploits involving the skills :)

raiyumi 2018-05-08 06:43

net3ton 2018-05-08 20:42

Wow, awesome! Really great idea and excellent implementation. Even top art, I love Mike Mignola style =)

ponchoguy 2018-05-08 22:34

Hey! I played this on stream it was really great! :open_mouth:

I loved the mechanic of using a medieval rpg with russian roulette, genius combination of themes.

The skill trees and the level of detail and polish in the inventory, map and skill trees blew my mind. :open_mouth:

One thing that I found pretty unforgiving was that attaching new HP+ helmets doesn't add the extra hp on top of your character but just increases the max health.

Other than that, wow again.. - Had immense fun thank you for making it! :smile:

cristiano-m-garcia 2018-05-09 03:36

Congratulations for the game! Very well done and the art is fantastic.

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.

simianlogic 2018-05-10 20:47

Love the combination of themes and the art/sound are terrific!

maikelortega 2018-05-11 11:30

One of the best games I've tried this jam. The theme fits perfectly and it's really original. I also love the UI design, congratulations team, really awesome job!

majorgoose 2018-05-11 23:42

This is a really great game! the illustration and medieval theme really make it fun. I like the UI of how the revolver is loaded then pops in when spun. Great level of polish too! Congrats!

misterstripey 2018-05-13 13:26

This game was outstanding. So polished and professional for a jam game. Awesome job.

nathalia-hohl 2018-05-14 20:21

You pretty much nailed the theme. Art is really good, the only problem is distinguishing AI elements at the start before you get used to it. The music was also nice. I really loved the idea and the implementation was mostly well done besides a few bugs and balancing issues.

I really missed a tutorial in the beginning, had to try a lot of times to understand what I was supposed to do and then figure out some stuff with the skills. The one that doubles the reward of the next shot and the foresight one are swapped (I don't remember if just the sprite or the description as well).

At first it seemed the game was really hard but after getting the hang of it and a bit of pure luck I became pretty much immortal and was a bit bored grinding xp for the sake of it. The dominoes are really OP and the foresight skill is easily exploitable. If you click again to spin the cylinder, it will count and you lose the buff. If you just open the gun and put the bullets again, you can use it ad infinitum.

Equips were cool and added to the humor, specially the frog hat (despite I not having gone for this build).

Also would be really nice if it saved your progress.

Besides those issues this was an amazing entry and one of my favorites in LD41. Keep up the good work. = ]

I did snow angel there like it was just a PC game. Very cool, the graphics are great and the story is fascinating. It's almost like poker only more interesting, I already have a fairplay download https://fairplay-club.in/app/ and this is the game I downloaded myself into my favorite games
