Really cool game!!
The take on the theme is one of the most interesting I've encountered. I wonder how it could be expanded upon. The graphics are really charming and the music is top notch (sick bass lines :fire: dudes)!
Controls well and it feels very complete and I haven't encountered any bug at all it really is a great entry!!
Wow thanks bros ! That really means a lot !
Yup, wasn't expecting that, thank you very much guys!!
cool little game, i like the graphics and music! great job!
This was fun although i found the "loose" camera a bit uncomfortable personally. Over all i enjoyed the game though! Good job
Indeed, I wish we could have found a way to improve that camera, but we didn't for now :/. Thank you for your feedback !
The game didn't look like much at first, but then he starts picking you up and reveals himself a good game. Well executed.
Thanks dude !
Very nice! Great entry!
A very interesting concept. Graphics is very nice and the music fits perfectly. A really greate entry!
I wish the camera felt a bit more natural. Loved the music, and a really enjoyable game :)
I, like others, struggled a bit with the camera. Looking past that I had a good time with this.
I loved the interpretation of the theme and how enemies evolve over time. The multiply to gain health mechanic was novel to me and felt satisfying to execute.
This was a fun one - great use of the theme, and fun to play overall. I also really like the design of the Zero; the belt/sash is genius. I appreciated the personality / differentiation between all the other numbers as well. The camera did make me feel a bit ill, but the music kept me coming back. Nice entry!
Yeah, the camera issue is well known .. sorry about that :/ thanks a lot for testing it though ! Your comments are very very very much appreciated <3 @fvafhae @tony-redmer @ashashza @pilly
Sound effects and music were great, and the gameplay was fun! As others already pointed out, the camera movement was jarring. Having the camera follow the mouse was a good idea, but I would suggest slowly interpolating between positions to make it less drastic. Nice work!
I really loved that! As a math enthusiast, I love this idea, it's great. It would be even better if you got different weapons, like a multiplication that converts the enemies to zeroes to fight for you. There could also be negative numbers, that you need to fire a square root at to make them imaginary! Awesome game :heart:
EDIT: Oh, I just realised that there is a multiply shot. I now see that it says so in the instructions, but when a player is shown a wall of text, most players will skip it. Avoid walls of text at all costs! With the multiply I was able to get 1771!
I loved this! It was a lot of fun! It was difficult at first because I couldn't land any multiplication shots, but once I got the hang of it it was a lot of fun. Also, some of the enemies spawned in my location (like the starting point), which was almost problematic, except I don't think enemies themselves have hitboxes. Also might I add, super funky background music, I dug it. The concept and execution were great, nice work!
Had much fun playing this little game. Love the sprites and the music.
The mouse control made me a bit dizzy. I understand why the camera would move when changing shot direction, but movement can get brutal when you move your mouse too fast xD Also, an auto-shoot feature would have been more confortable to play (with medium-slow fire rate so that there is still something to get from clicking like crazy)
very fun game to play I think it's one of the bests I have tried so far
cheers from Nantes :cheese:
Wooooow thank you so much guys for such positive feedback !
Really nice game!! I love the mechanic of getting kills as a health point. And the aesthetic is so well merged with the topic of the numbers. Justthe camera feels a bit fast... but rather than this really good job!
it's subtle what this does by adding the special shot that gives the player a shield but it reminds me that the possibilities haven't been exhausted for even the most standard genres like arena/twin-stick shooters
Thank you for nothing.
Cool mechanics, always love a fun simplistic (in a good way) action game.
The game has very cool gameplay and thats the most important thing. The AI of enemies is good for what it is. Not too passive, not too agressive. Cool idea with using enemies as hitpoints.
I would only change one thing. You use sprites of all the numbers - but they seem to have the same power. It would be cool if higher digits would have more health or powers (even though it doesn't fit the theme of multiplying by zero)
@lilkrit thank you for your feedback. Each number has its very own behaviour and pattern of attacks, but indeed, they all have just one hp and inflicts just one damage when hitting you, however their abilities make them stronger according to their value :)
Ayy pretty nice game, had few problems with the camera moving with my mouse but rather than that i experienced enjoyable gameplay and satifying sounds :) well done !
Really cool idea for the theme ! Very funny :slight_smile:
(I have to confess that I was expecting a big massive explosion the first time divided by zero :laughing: )
Haha that's a really great interpretation of the theme. Gameplay was quite fun, felt like a decent top-down arena shooter, but the whole theme of numbers fighting with different operators is really original. Nice work!
Cool idea, very original, interesting gameplay! I feel like the camera was shacking a bit too much
