Very much broken. The jumping feels really rough and floaty, collision on objects is rough, objectives unclear, apparently no barriers(?) I jump on the house at start and jumped to edge of screen but it didn't pan camera and i could not bring player avatar back, I'm assuming it fell off the world. Also, i feel like just naming your main player "Nothing" is really a cop out on the theme.
@Anonymous Thanks man, I know its broken because I created it in 1.5 day(never got time to polish it and fix bugs), actually you have to go to the corner of the screen to the light to get to the next level(if you feel like playing again). BTW, thanks for feedback, will try to apply it in future game jam games.
Thanks for feedback.
A promising start that fell a bit short with gameplay. The platform mechanics are rough on the edges and I got stuck trying to pass the 2 floating heads. Nice mood though with the music and setting!
@pierre-feuille-studio Thanks for playing and feedback. Glad to see that you liked it atleast a little. I will feed forward your feedback on my next games. Going to try Celestial Mechanics.
There is quite some bugs in your game, for example your background is not correctly extended so we can see the camera background, or I fell outside of the game terrain and fell indefinitely.
Other than that, the art is really cute, the music does the job, and it's pretty promising overall. I liked the little scenario at the beginning, though it's a bit long I think :)
(Based on the 1.1 version of the game)
Nice job! I thought the mood and art in this game were done excellently, the animations in the opening sequence were also very refined. I feel that the game could be a lot better had there been stronger indications for what different things represented and how they can be interacted with in gameplay. For example: the ghost enemies, with the game being a platformer, I naturally assumed that they could be jumped on and killed but ended up being incorrect. The level design in their introductory section also kind of enforced this, with it being highly claustrophobic and difficult to dodge them. There's obviously a lot of polish that needs to be done as well, for things such as the level/screen transitions and collisions. But either way, I really enjoyed this! Looking forward to playing more games from you.
I think that this simplistic art style actually works well... Love the robot animation. However, the music is annoying, the intro is pain, amateur mistakes like falling off screen, also you can't even move past first level, there's something blocking the way... It's an OK start, but you need to do better. I feel like you probably spent most of the time on that intro instead of actual gameplay. Prioritize better, cheers!
@kanonix Glad to see that you liked it. I fixed the bugs that your reported in v1.2. Thanks for playing. Btw your game was nice and I enjoyed it. Nice work.
@megalink Thanks for playing and for your feedback. I will try to apply it in my next games. Glad to see that you enjoyed this. I played Bacterial Infection man and it was too evil for me , LOL! but really you have made a great game in a short time. Nice work.
@siarhei-pilat Thanks for playing and for feedback. I fixed some bugs in v1.2(if you feel like playing again). Actually, I started late. So I was not able to focus on improving my actual gameplay. I will definitely prirotize better for my next game jam and focus more on the actual gameplay.
Although I found the art a little wierd, the game was still super fun, I wish you make a full game of this
Nice game
@graphicedit Thanks for playing and glad to see that you liked it.
I love the cinematic transitions and minimal art style this game had. The theme was very well implemented but there were some annoyances, if you will. Whenever I load to the next level and the sound plays, an enemy can still kill me at that time which I find difficult trying to get past them in that sense.
Overall, good job with the time given. Cheers!
@brotherbondproduction Thanks for playing. Glad to see that you liked it. Yeah, you must be talking about the level before the robo hand level, where there are two enemies moving near the next level light. Thanks for the feedback. I will fix this in the next update.
A music a slighty strain :cold_sweat: but overall not bad ))
- Since I speak Portuguese I was somehow expecting the robot to give birth to something. - The music was disturbing, at first I didn't like it but in the end it made sense to give that mood to the game. - I LOVE how you approach the theme! Way to think different. You start with the Robot, the robot's name is nothing. GENIUS! I just thing you shouldn't have to explain that so obviously, but still good job. - The ending was a bit dark and unexpected I just wish I had enough time to read everything you wrote there. - Game play is simple, a bit unpolished. The hit boxes were unclear, and the scenario elements were hard to distinguish from the background elements.
Fun game overall, good job :D
@ninjacatz Thanks for playing. Yeah music of the game was quite annoying for some people while some people liked it but still thanks for your feedback. @hcursino Thanks for playing and for the detailed feedback. Glad to see that you enjoyed the game and will definitely improve on the points you mentioned.
I would echo some/all of the statements others have said here - music and gameplay needed more love for sure. Maybe thats what you were going for with the disturbing or maybe the scope got too large but either way good lessons for next time! Keep at it and it'll get better and you'll get better.
EDIT: It looks like you've fixed some of the bugs in newer versions I did not play them sorry :(
@rocktavious Thanks for playing and for the feedback.
Have a A promising start, i like the idea, have some bugs, but have style...
@chaosround Thanks for playing and glad to find that you liked it.
Nice starting idea and very nice graphics. Gameplay needs a bit tweaking (the first hole in the level proved quite challenging). Also when falling down in the first hole you get directly to he Red Army boss: I think this is a bug.
@mattias-cibien Thanks for playing and for the feedback. No dude, it is not a bug. Actually, in the game there is no boss, the story leads to a very different ending(unlike a player normally expects as story shown in the beginning, if you played it completely, you would know it). The game has two enemies, one small floating robot and the big red army robot. The red army robot does nothing but stand there guarding the entry to next level. You need the robo hand to defeat him. You first have to find the robo hand and then come to the red army robot level back to go to the next level.
I didn't dislike the game, but it being broken made it a bit uncomfortable to play ... Congrats on finishing it anyways !
Nice story :)
@kuviman Thanks for playing.
Why didn't they tell him that his brain had a bomb! >:[=
Well, maybe they did, but he didn't understand anyway (because he has no brain :joy: )
The sound effects are hilarious xD especially collecting oil. The artstyle is weird. Not the best sprites but smooth and cool animations.
Too bad I took Nothing, and turned him into nothing though :rofl:
@itsdanidre Thanks for playing and for the humorous comment.
Nice game :) The sfx are funny and interseting art style. I would stop the characer movement when going from one room to an other. I think it will make it a bit better. Had fun playing this :)
@mad-brokli Thanks for playing and glad to find that you liked it.
Unfortunately I experienced a bug where i could not get passed the intro cutscene and it was just a black screen.
