congratulations for the initiative your game is cool I admire you can do this but some remarks the game when I click it seems it takes time to respond the clickes in the most congratulations.

@miltonsilva thankyou for your feedback :) We put a 0.2 seconds to delay in every attack to avoid collision of the bullets. But we will still check it. Thank you very much <3

Neat idea! I liked when I had to figure out which lane had the least amount of work for me to get through. Good job on getting the animations to make it seem like we're traveling through the forest.

I think I know what the previous commenter is talking about. After you shoot a bunch and stop, it takes awhile to start shooting again. Almost a second.

The concept have potential, but there are a few issues :

You don't shoot when the mouse cursor is on a "healed" tree, that cause some problems when there are several tree lines in a row.

Also, losing the game directly when colliding with a dead tree felt very punitive. I think it would have been better to just lose some life (something like twice the amount needed to heal it, or a fixed value).

@afroant hi thank you for the feedback and thanks for clarifying. I will check it over the weekend to see what I can do and ill try to upload new version asap. Thanksss <3

@thetatautau hi bro thank you for the feedback :) Thanks for the suggestions . I will discuss it to my partner. Godbless and thank you again. <3

I like the graphics, trees are beautiful and it is great that the main character has leaves on his back, I see that you put an effort to do it properly. Music is also really nice and the game is fun :) But there is a bug with clicking my mouse, it clicks or not and I don't have control over it, so I'm unable to win the game. I also think that dying the first time you hit the tree is a little too hard, but besides that the game is fine ;)

@suchista Thank you for the feedback :) Ill check the mouse problem . Anyway thank you again <3

Nice twist on the endless runner! The graphics and music are pleasant which vibes with the forest feel. It also ties in well with the theme. I experienced the mouse issue others have mentioned. Shooting was inconsistent. I saw above that you put in a delay to avoid the bullets colliding with each other. I suggest moving the bullets to a separate layer and disabling that layer's collision with itself to tackle that issue. You can still have a delay to pace the shots but there's something else going on here (perhaps the way you're toggling your shoot bool?) Also it'd be nice to see a score at the end showing how many trees you saved. Good job!

Nice game, I really like it.

Sometimes I have some troubles with shooting but nothing to bad.

The only thing which I am missing (or maybe I haven't found it) is a way to exit the game. And I would prefer to be able to switch to windowed mode.

kkyloves 2019-05-03 13:55

@balance686 wow that is a good idea :) thank you for the feedback. I will check what you said. thanks

kkyloves 2019-05-03 13:56

@cubicode Thank you for the feedback <3 Ill see what i can do about the mouse problem, thankyou

Sweet simple concept, I like the music and the art is great. Would have wished the shooting worked properly instead of it being a barrier that limits my enjoyment of the game :(

For feedback, a thing I haven't seen mentioned is the sliding of the character when not pressing to move, in my opinion the sliding is to much and either it should slide less or not at all, it doesn't feel to necessary in this type of game and it makes the controls harder.

I love the concept, even if it's not perfect, this game have potential, i hope you won't quit its developpement !

kkyloves 2019-05-03 23:20

Hi @miltonsilva @afroant @thetatautau @suchista @balance686 @cubicode @bentekiller @dev-for-pizza . Hello everyone, I uploaded a new version of the game . If you have time, please check if the mouse problem is fixed on your side. Thank you very much for all the feedback and suggestions it helps me and my partner a lot.

This is a lot of fun, thanks for making it! Plays well, fun to play, my six-year-old daughter loved it, lol. There's kind of a fundamental problem with using the left-mouse-button without locking the mouse cursor: My mouse tended to drift off the game, and then I'd *click* off the game, and all input would cease working until I clicked back on the game. Honestly I'd just change the fire button to like spacebar or something. Or you could lock the mouse, or make the game pause if it loses focus. I agree that making collisions take life would improve the game; it would also make life more relevant, because when we played it, we never came close to running out of bullets. The side background could be a lot better. All that aside, great game, great work!

Very neat little game. Very cool concept and great idea of saving the trees. Is it an endless runner because it never ended and you just couldn't shoot fast enough to get through trees eventually. :clap:

kkyloves 2019-05-04 17:28

Hi @a-random-programmer thankyou for playing. :)

kkyloves 2019-05-04 17:29
