Devil Cult Party

I was lurking your twitch channel for pretty much the entire jam; I love your art and the music you play is my jam.

The gameplay is smooth, art crisp and the audio is awesome.

I wasn't sure what the end game was, and I tried a few times to get through but hit into seemingly random bugs which destroyed the fun for me. I did load it up a few times, but after the third crash, ~20m each play, in I had to call it quits.

I'll come back and take a look if I can play it all the way through, I was looking forward to playing this game all jam.

@furtive-pygmy Hey, thanks for playing, glad you like it! Im still hunting for bugs, can you recall what you were doing at the time of your latest crash? Any clues would be useful.

@frankiesmileshow I was picking a cultist up from the pew each time, here's a screenshot with the error message:

@furtive-pygmy Thanks! I just fixed this bug, and a few others too.

Watched the stream and as always love your art style. Amazing work.

@frankiesmileshow Thanks Frankie, I'll check it out when I get home from work today.

Nice game, i love it! Those minions look so cute. Very interesting idea.

Found another bug. Happened after the gate demon got kill (mostly rare case I suppose since it was on the 3th hellgate).77fd58c8c063ffb9072d5e6d2e62d327.png

@pvp I'll look into it! Might be a really obscure one.

Hey guys, hope you had a nice time during the jam! Next time think of us (mac users) to play your game too! A web build works for all sides! :p

I had an hour to play LD games tonight, and this took a lot of it. Once I figured out the quirky controls (has to be up/down THEN C, not other way around) I had to finish it. Really solid game. I enjoyed trying to figure out the best arrangement of my temple to increase follower flow to vital systems. The combination of things like the summoning circle and the soul stone also were cool to try to get higher level demons more quickly.

bongard22 2018-12-06 02:51

Loved it! My only criticism is that the controls are extremely unintuitive.

drauthius 2018-12-06 20:38

Nice entry! Quite a lot of stuff in it, with some nice art as well. Was a bit hard to figure out what the different buildings did, and "late game" was just trying to shuffle the cultist deeper into the forest.

Amazing entry! Stellar pixelart, extremely fitting music, fluent gameplay, awesome use of the theme! I always wanted to play a cult simulator! There is so much content, too! My only gripe is, that I didn't know what to do, after I killed the big demon guy. Is there more content or is that basically the end?

Awesome game, a 5 for sure!

Great entry as always. The presentation is very good and their eating sound is funny. There is lot stuff to do, but is not very challenging. Not much happens if the player does not take action, I think it would be great if a angry mob showed from time to time with torches and pitchforks.

Amazing job though.

2018-12-08 15:04

Really interesting concept, great game! I included it in my compilation video series of games from the Ludum Dare, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/cFpZDUQu-Js

The pixel art is beautiful! congratulations

Great pixelart work! It's really addictive, although the controls could have been more intuitive and straighforward.

themadprogramer 2018-12-24 13:51

Tried to get it to run on my Mac with Wine but it crashed sadly. FORTUNATELY I was able to hear the main theme and have the graphics for screenshots

@jupiter-hadley also added some brief gameplay so I'll just be rating you on these. Nice job! I found you in DANGER and sure hope you get spotted by a few more people soon enough to boost you into rated. Best of luck!

azayiah 2018-12-24 15:56

niccccceeee!!! Reall cool game!!

ryjcio 2018-12-26 00:28

Dude, really freaking great! Most innovative and fun peace I've seen for a long time! Everything seems to play nicely with the idea, every piece of design fits perfectly!

bonelazy 2018-12-29 19:46

Amazing sprites/graphics, great music and very innovative gameplay with a fitting theme. Great job
