I think the MEGAHIT room is bugged, I can enter it, defeat the enemy, open the box, can't pick up K nor leave the room, otherwise an interesting game, will be revisiting.

Amazing voice acting, the graphics are cute and the concept is very interesting. However, the enemy ai could be a bit better and a seem to be getting insta killed by the 'megahit' enemies when a group of them chase me around.

@starblast Sorry, yeah we know. Uploading new Build as I type.

I love the 2d paper-crafty style of the game. It's moody and cohesive. I also love how all the characters say their words (and the fact that there are multiple voice recordings for each word). It's a difficult game, the blue megahit guys tend to always get me at least once. There's also a bug with the treasure chest room that softlocks the game (you can't leave). I also had one occasion where enemies from another room ran through the wall (this might have been because I activated a room as I died)

Neat idea, but the result is pretty buggy, I guess that is to be expected from a game Jam game though :) First game I've seen that I feel actually fit the theme even if it was a little bit of a creative interpretation.

Love the concept of collecting the letters to unlock abilities.

I can't also exit the chest room. I guess I've entered without collecting the key or needed letters. Interesting game. For those who don't know what to do at the beginning: there's a passage on the left of the skulls :)

Great idea, literally "start with nothing". The art is unique and fits the overall tone along with the music. Some balancing stuff, megahit enemies tend to just 1-hit you. Personally I like the way the AI works in response to your movements.

@caesura @pinosaur @starblast @catoblepa @nathan-wash @u-tsang-clan @iconocatstudio Chest Room Bug should be fixed.

I had the same problem as @starblast the first time, but the room worked the second time, when i first went the other way. I really like the art style, gives the game a nice mood together with the sound. I'm not really a fan of the combat. It's innovative yes, but at first it feels clunky and when you got used to spamming h i t in the correct order it gets super easy.

i love it... great mechanic and everything fits so well with the theme <3

twinsides 2019-10-07 23:16

Amazing concept. I'm excited of this game to be a whole long story. And yeah, literally started with Nothing. :dog:

madbarron 2019-10-07 23:19

Very creative, I love the concept. Great job doing something interesting with the theme. Unfortunately it was way too hard for me :(

john-hellrung 2019-10-07 23:20

Great job. I liked the typing method of attacking. Plus, the whole horror theme was cool. I liked how the ghost spoke the word rather than just being text. However, I did running in some issues twice when playing. First issue in the room with the first chest. I could leave or pick the letter. Second issue was in the room with the second chest. Here i couldn't attack, or leave. I added screenshots of issues. Overall, great game and I really enjoyed the expernce. Issues 1.PNG Issues.PNG

@john-hellrung Thank you for your comment and help with the screenshots :) The first issue was fixed a few minutes ago. We are looking into the second issue. Thanks again :)
