Overall, I enjoyed the game and what you have going on. It does still need some polishing, but, overall it is interesting. I found a kind of game breaker where every time I spawned I spawned on top of the spinning enemy leaving me in a death cycle.
@2016mcook Thank you for your feedback, I also think that there is something workable behind this. But yeah it sure still needs a lot of work. I knew about this game breaker when I did my testing, but I was in such a hurry I didn't take the time to make a little fix (like spawning on a raised platform).
@namae Don't worry about it, these things happen. I just wanted to make sure you were aware of it. Other than that it was a fun game. Idk if you can but the game window was a tad small to play in but, I may have done something wrong.
I found it turned out to be much better than what you said in the description. I always want to make a jam game more complete with a tutorial section but never actually made one ever. You did it. I felt it begins interesting when you pick up the sword. You also have multiple poses picking up your dead body. though sometimes i got stuck keep falling onto the enemy. But anyway you should make some gif and put on this description page!
Lol very good start! I liked the dialogue and it was a good use of the theme :)
This was really cool. I liked that the classic 'dying and using piles of your corpses' was taken to the next level by picking them up and using them in other ways. Well done!
Some screenshots to watch your game before download it...
@budark Yeah I gotta do that, thanks.
Interesting concept, too bad you were caught up on time.
Good concept, however I got caught in a loop where I kept on dying over one of the moving saws and couldnt move or get out. Would like to see this developed more however, with a bit of polish it could become a great game! Good effort and best of luck!
It's short, sure, but really good. Hitting people with your dead buddy (sorry) is a lot of fun, and it depending on where you grab it is top notch. Really hoping here you would improve on this idea. Great job, looking forward for what you could do next.
What a great idea! Unfortunately, because of my cheap electronic keyboard I am not able to run right and jump at the same time, so it got quite frustrating really quickly... And jumping felt a little weird as well. Otherwise, it looks really promising as a prototype! Just needs a little more work (which is pretty much always the case after 72 hours...). Congratulations on your first and successful submission! Hope to see you again next time! :)
Very cool idea. :) I seemed to have some input trouble - often not recognising multiple presses at once which breaks the game a little, but still had fun brute forcing my way through as far as I could.
@phi @fledgeling93 I'll do my best to participate in the next jam, thanks a lot for the support!
Really cool idea, seems pretty polished for a jam game! You might not have had time for levels, but the gameplay seems to be all there. Stacking the bodies up seems to be pretty difficult for me, but I can't imagine there being an easy way to show where you're gonna put the body in relation to ones already on the floor or how the other bodies are going to react to it. Also the spawn messed up for a while where I would spawn right above the enemies and I kept on dying until I managed to bounce off one of my dead bodies and avoid the enemies. Maybe if the player had some iframes immediately when they spawned that could be avoided. Congrats on your first Ludum Dare by the way!
