Fun game. Good idea!

daniel-abeleira 2018-12-03 18:15

Great game idea and good visuals! Good job

Cool game! You did very well to incoporate the theme and it was fun to play. Also plus for making a html5 web version, always nice to be able to play without installing something. The controls, especially the hit detection could be a bit better and after the first wave I was unsure what to do now, since the pickup mechanic is not explained. But I figured it out. My final score was 50, is that any good? :-)

Cool game. A bit of action, a bit of tactics. Good job!

niborious 2018-12-03 18:36

@tomdeal 50 is pretty good for the first time! I've seen lower lol. Once you understand all the mechanics of the game you can get to some massively high scores if you try to optimize.

Nice! A Fun experience overall. Feedback: It was reaally easy to lose my character in the mayhem. I also felt like I couldn't reliably hit the enemies, and wished I was more powerful. Like Dynasty Warrirors for example.

niborious 2018-12-03 19:03

@wdelvi Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! it definitely could use a better way to see your character. It is meant to be more tactical that combat heavy, maybe I should make that more clear somehow

ooff, I love your graphics. Both humor and art are giving of oldschool newgrounds-charm - I dig it.

jannick-larsen 2018-12-03 21:02

Nice fun game. Great idea!

Very fitting for the theme, I like the detail that you actually have to carry the victims for the sacrifice and do it yourself, makes it a bit more impactful. The fights had a nice feel to them but it was very hard to see my character mid fights

Love the Binding of Isaac visuals and stabbing never felt so real. Good job.

Graphics are really nice and expressive (Like on the sacrificing slab). Well done! I'm not very tactical though so it was pretty hard for me! Haha

myfriendtames 2018-12-05 01:51

Really funny game! :smile:

Your game reminds me the graphics of The Binding of Isaac! :smiley:

gebowunjo 2018-12-05 09:23

The game is fun ! Love the animation for the characters =P Meanwhile it's a bit hard to make a big score ..

xphere 2018-12-05 09:45

Nice game, I'm a big McMillen fan myself and loved your style. I got to 105 score points and got totally alone, so I can't sacrifice anybody (not even myself, would've be something) Good job!

niborious 2018-12-05 10:06

@xphere Ah thanks! I just fixed that issue! :P

niborious 2018-12-05 10:12

@slizzben @daniel-abeleira @yrasin @elzach @jannick-larsen @craftlord @shp @publicidadeba @arc1llusion @myfriendtames @xphere Thank you all for the kind words!

If anyone is interested, I just released a blog post explaining how all of art in the game is procedurally generated from nothing. Check it out!

Nice procedural art! Interesting concept.

nakami 2018-12-05 10:23

Cool game. I found that the easiest way to survie a long time is to sacrifice low life continuously to get 3 more fighter. And between two attack you can sacrifice 2 or 3 low life at the same time. And the eyes are so expressive when you gonna sacrifice a guy.

hairic 2018-12-05 10:32

Nice game and insightfull guide on how to make the drawing! A nice use of procedural generation I would say. I am a sucker for the Isaac-like faces.

xarras 2018-12-05 10:33

Very nice compo game! took me a few tries but I finally scored 65 points. It's fun to play and the graphics are pleasing :) Also thanks for the post you just made earlier!

theonethatneverwas 2018-12-05 13:07

Cool game! The art is very amazing and the gameplay is fun. Good job!

nisepandakun 2018-12-06 06:15

Love the art work, especially character models. Hilarious sound effects too. Overall quite a fun game to play!

skiddings 2018-12-12 22:47

That was fun to play!
