Cool Game but the lighting and vision effects were glitching.
The graphics bugged out sometimes, but that is far out weighed by the feel, art and mechanics of the game, it's fun and unique, absolutely love it, 4.5 stars from me
Cool little game, animations looked really good, would have liked some sound effects, otherwise good entry!
I like the idea of the lighting system, despite the glitches. Although, after getting the camera item and bringing all lights back on, it was failry easy to walk around the guards trough the levels, I finished in no time at all :grin:
Anytime I try to fullscreen it, it instantly quits though. But nice game!
Really liked the illustrations in the tutorial and how you walked the players through the controls in game. The lighting glitched often, but that was the only qualm that I could find. The death animations of the guard were extremely satisfying. If you add sound effects to this and lengthen the game as a whole, it would greatly enhance the experience.
Keep up the good work!
nice game, the art style at the begin of the game is quite nice, some of that during the rest of the game I would be a good idea to give a different mood. and after getting the camera game becomes much better (I also had glitches with lighting)
Liked the stealth mechanics alot. Lights are good! Could use some sound. Dragging bodies around felt unnecessary. Lisp wow! That's awesome.
Went throught it :muscle: it's a nice release, with nice graphics and cool stealth mechanics! The only feedback I would give is the title screen: to me it's wasn't obvious what to do at all, the circle to go to might have needed to be in another color or something like that IMHO. Anyways, that's a pretty game, congrats !!
Very nic little game. Quite cozy and enoyable. I wish the gun controls were more responsive and there would be more to do after that point. But good job, no doubt!
HOW.... HOW DO I START THE GAME oh wait just read @blint6 's comment ok lemme see ok now i got it. neat! wait this was done in lisp? thats wild whoooooah ok lookin at this source thats rad i dont know lisp well enough to know if its good lisp but you wrote a whole hell of a lot of stuff from scratch gw
Cool game, for some there was no tutorial the first time I played, but the second time I started the game everything worked perfectly. The game is fun, the graphics are nice and simple, which I like. I think it would greatly benefit from some music and sounds. Great job!
I had a problem with the game not starting, the trial.log said:
2019-10-08 21:02:09 [INFO ]
I had unpacked the game on G:/Spiele but somehow it created a new folder in C:/ No Idea. Just copied the game to the folder on C:/ and it worked.
As many have already said, the shadows were too glitchy. I think it would also be a good idea to give each enemy character a flashlight because now it looks like the characters are walking in complete darkness with no vision. Also, it is generally a good idea to spread the controls for two hands in singleplayer games like this. Having Q and E as action buttons and WASD as movement is difficult. You've got something cool to work with here!
https://pastebin.com/vGJpaZhH I got the same problem as @gargoyle-g but I couldn't start it :< hope it helps
can confirm - windows version works only if you extract it to C:\ld.
I got the game running no problem on windows, but the lighting effects are glitching way out, flying all over the map and it really is not good to look at. Wasn't really able to play much, sorry about that.
@cpokered @nachtwitch @saltfactory-studio @brokenmirrormedia Sorry about the glitches. Can one of you send me a screenshot or video of it? I haven't been able to reproduce it myself.
@narudgi No idea how that can happen at the moment, very sorry it doesn't work. If I can figure something out I'll let you know!
@bredera @saltfactory-studio @civmaniac @catiliangames I'm very sad we didn't have time to fit in sound, too. Hopefully next time, though! Thanks for the feedback!
For some reason I only got a blackscreen in Windows 7.
I like the graphic style, and the idea, but the lack of visibility, with the light, makes the game a little too hard. Besides I had no sound in the game, I don't know if it was normal: o
Good little game, fun and cute. No problem on windows for me, it's pretty cool ! Good job for a game jam !
Nice gameplay and cool graphics. I found it frustrating that 1. I couldn't turn when a shoulder is against a wall (you can turn 180, but not 90 towards the wall) and 2. that pressing q did not automatically take down the guard.
Really liked it, and I think that sound would help the game a lot (I know my game does not have sound either, but.. In your game, the atmosphere would improve a lot!!).
PS: I haven't experienced any shadow glitches, but I had to copy the game to C:/ in order it to work :)
Sometimes I couldn't take down the guard even though I was standing right next to them. Also, after i escaped the 3rd level, I was returned to the beginning of the 1st one. But I like this game a lot. I had fun escaping guards. My personal favorite moment was when I ran in front of the eyes of three guards and then escaped all of them. Without the radar, I'd probably have bumped directly into one of them, so maybe the radar should be in a place that is harder to get to, to justify its power.
@msamyel @roastedpotatoe It'll only let you take down guards if you're strictly behind them and rather close. Unfortunately it's a bit too strict right now, making it pretty frustrating to find the right place to stand.
@msamyel It's supposed to return you to the credits after the third level but there's a bug that skips it. Sorry about that! And yeah, I would have liked to have longer and more intricate levels, but what's there was thrown together in the last few hours of the jam. It's the best I could do with the time, I'm afraid. Thanks for the critique!
@cipery Yeah, I'll have to fix up my sound engine in time for the next jam for sure :)
@le-don It seems that my engine glitches out on AMD graphics cards. I don't have a card of my own, so I don't know how to debug it right now, I'm sorry to say.
Ah, yes, I have an AMD card.
i couldn't get out of the credit screen
