the character sticks to walls making it pretty difficult
Really cool! I really like the art!
I might have played too much Super Metroid before, because I actually liked the wall jumping here. Even managed to break the game with it. Still a good unreleased NES game.
fun!
Thank you - @domixltu2 yeah i try to fix it now -.- Lol @snakemuho - thank you :)
Fun!!!
Very cool game! The pixel art is spot on, and so is the music. The controls are a bit wonky, but with a little more polish this game is awesome. Good job!
@domixltu2 i fixed the bug :) The Windows Version is fixed and the Web Version is currently building^^
EDIT: Now Web should be fixed too :) Hope you have fun.
Amazing game, from graphics to sfx to music. The only thing i can say is the platformer motor you are using seems to have some bugs. Especially about walls. You should use no friction physics materials π
And it was a little hard for me, give up after 12 tries in the second level π
@ytaha oh you was too fast :D i fixed the friction bug 2 minutes ago^^
Get stuck into a and have to release keys to fall and die is a bit annoying. BUT like the game the control are very cool, I like this small inertia. And the art are great too. Nice job ;)
@neowhoru Haha nice timing π
The skater jumps. So satisfying.
The game felt very nice and the music is nice to. However there is a bug where if you jump of a wall twice you get stuck in a endless fall animation, which means that you can't finish the level.
Ahaha stunning pixel art loved it! Only jump could be more faster and realistic that's what I felt. Good Job!
Fun to play.
@jiri-one oh okay . Is it in Level 1 ? I will check if i can fix this.
Thank you @chinmay-yagnik and @tpamir :)
I just wish I could skate that well in really life. Nice work on the game. The controls feel good.
Fun! The music is good but a bit repetitive. The pixel art is great.
Nice game. I liked the physic of the skater. I would have like to see more platformer elements like moving platforms. The music was a bit annoying. Had fun playing it. Good work overall!
Great pixel art. The controls felt pretty good too.
@jonathan-lorenz i am Not a good music artist :) thank you ^^ @xelphyre thank you :)
I liked it, the art was nice and I liked the platform style. There was a bug that I got when wall jumping where it wouldn't reset to the 'grounded' state sometimes. Good job, I would love to see a more fleshed out version.
@furtive-pygmy thank you :) i will Check that bug but i have an idea how i get rid of it.
Nice gameplay and art !
Yep you can Super Metroid wall jump all right. Pretty fun mechanic but it isn't used for anything here.
So this is a simple platformer and it was fun. Definitely that high browser game drop in and play and end up playing longer than you thought you would quality. I wonder if that wall jump could be used for something if there were more levels. Hmm. I think there would have to be some more mechanics if it was to continue for sure. Even more complicated platform arrangements, or some of them moving, wouldn't be enough after a few more levels. The other possibility was already explored on the third level and I liked that! You have to work out the correct order to collect the energy refills between saving your friends. You can't just mindless truck through it all in a linear order. That was a cool twist for something in a game jam and showed you were thinking of how the system could be effectively explored.
@thisismyjam thank you - yeah that wall jump is more unexpected issue but i should solve this in a post-jam version :)
The Idea with Level 3 came within i made level 3 i thought "wait wouldn't it be cool if you must take care of the order and to challenging it a bit?" :)
From the name and the screenshots I got an idea about at least 50% of the game and the rest was self-explanatory/well-explained in-game + no tutorial was needed = very good game design. I didn't read a single word on your game's homepage.
I found the screenshots very appealing (made me want to play the game). I think it is because of great pixel art and color scheme. When you described the game as "retro skate-platformer" in a post - I was thinking something fast along the line of Sonic... But it is a very good precision platformer instead.
I fealt like some of the beverages were intentionally placed to kill you. If this is true, bear in mind that if you expand on this game, i would try not to do too much of this. You can perhaps expand it to create levels, which involve more strategy and thinking, thus making it more interesting to play. π
Thank you for your wonderful review @mza :) Of course i think about to expand it (as i really like it too this time - the last two times in LD i didn't do it well but the Dezember LDs are my best:))
What i am not sure if the level settings - i had some idea about subways for example and another different city levels but still not a real idea about it. For a full game it shoulnd't be too short but interesting :)
You must get this done after LD, needs a bit more polish here and there, but generally very enjoyable!
Neat game! I included it in my compilation video series of games from the Ludum Dare, if youβd like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/Y2UiyhFvqPg
@martincohen Thank you :) I think i will do it. I really like this game. @jupiter-hadley many thank you for playing my game :)
Nice game! Loved the pixel art. Hope you make more levels in the future :D
This game is amazing, I especially love that scrolling city block effect. music is good, art is good. Game mechanics fits the theme. No complaints. I just had a little bug when hitting a wall my player could no longer jump and I had to suicide. Over all very good game.
Other than the bug where you get stuck in falling mode after you've landed and can't jump anymore, it was pretty fun. I was able to get out of that by finding a corner.
I liked the wall jump mechanics a lot. I also think that when you jump you shouldn't just follow the camera so completely - I could never see below me to know if I would land on a platform or not. Oftentimes games with huge jumps only half-follow the character through the jump so you can still see below you.
Thank you @aurel and @digitaldude555 for your Feedback. I really think i will Make a full game out of it.
@aurel you are right with the camera which needs a little mit more improvement - so this will be improved.
Nice job! your game fells smooth and well tough! I like the way you used the theme. The controls are easy. The graphics are really good! I also enjoyed the trick you have to do to save everyone on the last level! Congratulations!
@neowhoru Great little game, it's fairly polished presentation-wise. I am amazed that so many games felt complete this LudumDare! Thanks for sharing it!
You can watch my gameplay here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MZ_QoEaCr0
Just played your game on our twitch stream - thanks for submitting - too bad you couldn't be there.
@firesplash-entertainment thank you for playing it - yeah i was sick the last days.
But i watch the video later :)
I like the art and music, and the way the skater controlled was also nice and fluid. The concept sacrificing your health for saving friends was however a bit weak if you don't need your health for anything else like fighting enemies or something like that. Nice idea but adding something so your health matters more , aside for just taking care to take health packs after and not before saving friends, would make it a lot better mechanic.
Yo' I would add a variable-height jump, the player doesn't have enough control over where his character will be. Otherwise Great Game Bro!
Very neat, very cool. I am delighted to have discovered your entry.
*You did a great job for the 8 bits music it's in the mood of the old console.
Very nineties in all the best ways! I had some fun touching my friends and enjoying a soda afterwards. Wait⦠;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZuUnksM0WM
OH WOW! I'M PUMPED! It's about time I dusted off this ol' skateboard. I had a lot of fun with this! I love the art, music and intuitive design. Excellent Job on this :D
thank you @philstrahl and @ratherjolly :)
