I think I ran out of items on the third level

Things I liked: - Third level Parallax looks really good. - Sounds on thrid level are good too. - Characters look great. - Like the scrolling text and sound - Like the group and travelling down a road mechanic. Feels like Wizard of the Oz

Problems: - Health bars on hits don't display long enough to see them - The "end turn" button remained after defeating the first big guy

Good stuff!

@eldogg Thanks for your comment, we'll try to fix these bugs :)

brevitius 2018-12-04 18:18

Interesting mechanics. Good work.

imaship 2018-12-04 18:26

@brevitius Thank you !

The end level creature animation was amazing! The ending really struct a chord.

arc1llusion 2018-12-04 18:28

Liked this a lot, I didn't win but I'm guessing I was close. I ran out of items after the city. Well done! In particular I thought the characters and mood were top knotch.

joni-jarvinen 2018-12-04 18:33

I don't have any issues that previous comments didn't already mention. Overall I think the game is good. The ending was especially well done.

imaship 2018-12-04 18:33

@vilix64 Thank you very much, this animation took me hours to animate, glad it pleases you ^^

imaship 2018-12-04 18:38

@arc1llusion Thanks a lot :) If you want to reach the end of the game, use the stick and duplicate it so you'll always have an item ;)

imaship 2018-12-04 18:39

@joni-jarvinen Thank you a lot, glad you liked it :)

floyams 2018-12-04 18:55

Thanks everyone, really sorry about few really annoying bugs... Glad you enjoyed it though :)

pompi-pompi 2018-12-04 19:37

Really nice, is there a happy ending though? lol

flying-dog-fish 2018-12-04 19:43

This is some crazy shit. I like it :)

imaship 2018-12-04 19:45

@pompi-pompi Nope, we realy wanted to talk about sacrifices people sometime pushes theirselves to do to achive a goal they have and how self destructive it is Sorry X)

imaship 2018-12-04 19:53

@flying-dog-fish Thank you ! ^w^

royur 2018-12-04 20:32

run out of things to throw at isn't the world futile? is it the end? or there should be more?

imaship 2018-12-04 21:12

@royur There's more, don't worry ! Always keep a stick with you so that you can duplicate it and always have something to use ;)

fernando-tonon-de-rossi 2018-12-04 21:27

Nice game, easy to play!

What I liked most was the art style!

Maybe throwing the other characters would fit better on the theme! :laughing:

m3rcurial92 2018-12-05 01:08

Really funny! I loved the idea and the ending, congratulations!

guilhermesouza 2018-12-05 01:12

Hi!! I finished your game! It's really cool! I think with some improves it'll be a good game to mobile stores!

Pros: Graphics in Pixel art with a cool blur effect. The history impact. All the sounds, especially final boss music. The fight mechanic (with the item management)

Great Job Bro!

keldy 2018-12-05 01:15

Love it, easy to understand and play, and the best of all is the pink piggy :) Jood job!

willbl3pic 2018-12-05 07:48

Wow! Graphics are great, dialogue is good, and that end boss transformation is awesome! I managed to defeat it after throwing away everything, including all of my hearts.

imaship 2018-12-05 08:09

@fernando-tonon-de-rossi Thanks ! And you can throw your companions to the boss ! X)

imaship 2018-12-05 08:10

@m3rcurial92 Thank you very much :)

imaship 2018-12-05 08:14

imaship 2018-12-05 08:17

@keldy Thank you ^^ @sensisaw6 is the one who made Jean the pig knight X)

imaship 2018-12-05 08:19

@willbl3pic You had the most interesting ending, glad you liked the boss animation :)

guine 2018-12-05 13:25

Congratulations! Really Funny!

imaship 2018-12-05 14:00

@guine Thanks :)

stratoskakalis 2018-12-05 15:56

Noooo I don't want to kill the poor monsters. Hahah really cool submission with solid art and gameplay. Gotta say that chromatic aberation was a little much though. Nice entry!

ninjacatz 2018-12-05 16:06

Great job done!

imaship 2018-12-05 16:15

@stratoskakalis Thank you ^^ The aberation is indeed to much some time X)

imaship 2018-12-05 16:15

@ninjacatz Thank you :)

codesity 2018-12-05 16:35

Amazing game. Graphics looks simple but really good. Good Work!

imaship 2018-12-05 16:40

@codesity Thank you :D

codesity 2018-12-05 16:42

@imaship no problem, feedback is always good ^^

imaship 2018-12-05 16:49

@codesity Sure is :)

mathis-bressaud 2018-12-05 18:07

I really love the idea and the graphics. Well Played !

fat-cat 2018-12-05 19:04

It has a couple of bugs (like you cannot die) but still cool game!

imaship 2018-12-05 20:32

@mathis-bressaud Thank you ^^

imaship 2018-12-05 20:34

@fat-cat Thanks :) it's too bad we didn't had the time to fix that ^^"

thob 2018-12-05 21:20

Le jeu est sympa !

Le système de combat est intéressant, juste à bien l'équilibrer (évidemment là c'est normal qu'il ne soit pas équilibré).

Ma première remarque aurait été de vouloir voir les dégâts infligés par chaque items, mais après ça apporte une notion d'apprentissage, genre quel item sert à quoi, quel est le plus fort etc, je ne sais pas si c'est une volonté ou pas. Parce que si le but est d'avoir une sorte de notions d'essais des items et tout ça serait bien d'avoir la vie des ennemis affichées plus longtemps, ou alors tout le temps pour pouvoir mieux deviner les dégâts que font nos objets (c'est une juste suggestion si vous voulez exploiter votre concept dans ce sens).

Il y a pas beaucoup de production : des ennemis différents, des objets différents, des décors différents, des musiques différentes, avec mention spéciale pour l'animation de la dernière créature, vraiment cool !

Pas certain de l'aberration chromatique sur le bas de l'écran par contre ! peut-être pour le dernier monde mais au début ça fait bizarre, un peu hors sujet.

Mais sinon très cool :)

imaship 2018-12-05 21:37

@thob Merci pour ton commentaire, c'est cool que tu es pris le temps de l'écrire pour nous filer des conceils ^^

Pour les items, je trouve le systeme d'aprentissage interessant, ça insite le joueur à être plus attentif à cequ'il utilise mais c'est vrai que la barre de vie des ennemies reste pas assez longtemps. Ont va essayer de regler ça.

Merci, j'ai travailler sur les graphismes avec @sensisaw6 et @myungwi et ont voulait vraiment que chaque niveau soit différents pour donner du sens au zones qu'on a fait. L'animation m'a pris du temps à faire et je suis contente de voir quelle plait ^^

Merci beaucoup ^^
