Installing epic/core just to test your game. Let's see what we got here!

fiote 2021-10-05 13:29

Ok, the game is NEAT. Love the concept, the graphics and the execution. It's a mix of puzzle, rpg and action! Really fun to play around! I just don't like the gap between tiles, they make me die so much LOL.

fiote 2021-10-05 13:36

I'm kinda addicted right now. Gotta get to first place! Just one bug I found: if you alt-tab, the game think you jumped, or something, so when you alt-tab back, the tile you're currently on falls! Bummer! Or is that just some timing thing?

fiote 2021-10-05 13:49

Does the coins sum up each round? Doesnt look like they do, so the rank is actually a "highest score in a single run"? If that's the case, then I think it's weird that the first floor is basically empty the next times you play. Looks like what you gather is "persistent", but since you're always starting from scratch, it gets harder every run to actually get coins!

fiote 2021-10-05 13:56

I AM GOLD. Got the 1st place. I've been playing/rating a lot of games and this is genuinely the first game I actually WANTED to keep playing lol. Loved it!

randomphantom 2021-10-05 14:06

@fiote thanks for playing. yeah the score should be restarted each round. The first floor shouldn't be empty upon a restart, it should be regenerated, think that might be a bug unfortunately :stuck_out_tongue: maybe it happens after a few rounds.

fiote 2021-10-05 14:09

@randomphantom after someone joined (or after I left/rejoined, not sure), the room was filled again. So I think the "recreate the floors" is not happening as expected. I'll try to come back later to see if someone beat my score! haha!

Pretty good entry! Installing Core was worth it to give this a shot; didn't get a terribly high score but enjoyed the game all the same. Good work.

solah 2021-10-05 17:16

Heym the game was fun to play, well done!

devparty 2021-10-06 01:46

Nice game! I haven't seen many games made in Core, and I think that there should be more because, in my opinion, it is a way better engine that roblox. 9/10 great game!

tom-kun 2021-10-06 02:14

Love the game flow. Its simple and fun. It will be even better If there is a shop that player can spent the coins on! Good job!

That was actually fun to play, great work man, had to install core for this, but it was worth it :)

zvyaga 2021-10-06 06:47

Cool graphics, interesting mechanics, liked the UI

cabjhegas 2021-10-06 11:55

Making an online multiplayer game in a jam deserves all my respect. I really liked playing it

jan5366x 2021-10-06 17:57

nice work :thumbsup:

binaryspark 2021-10-06 18:43

I can't play this unfortunately, don't have Core installed (no idea what it was before today either, tbh). :(

alex-chertilin 2021-10-06 19:27

Wow it was made just in 72 hours? Unbelievable

randomphantom 2021-10-07 02:29

@megamasterx thanks for installing and giving it a shot :)

@alex-chertilin well it was made in Core and I used quite a few of the default assets in that engine. @cabjhegas yes Core makes it pretty easy to do online multiplayer but was still a challenge doing it in a game jam, thanks!

@tom-kun great idea for the shop, may think about doing that after the jam

@binaryspark no worries, I think the Core download can be quite hefty and specs can be demanding :V:

@jan5366x thanks for checking out!

@underdog thank you so much for giving it a shot :laughing:

@solah thanks for playing

@devparty its a new engine but now I'm wondering if there's any roblox games in the jam lol. Thanks for playing!

bzik 2021-10-07 09:15

Nice, I like it

tardif-adrian 2021-10-07 17:24

I really appreciate the art and the mechanics. Congrats for the online multiplayer by the way.

ravenmages 2021-10-07 21:17

Nice work with the game! It has a nice mixture of puzzles and rpg elements. Good luck!

quoc 2021-10-07 21:47

Nice game guys. I really enjoyed it!

markveligod 2021-10-08 07:34

Ahh for the first time I see a game on core it's just awesome!

moonblast 2021-10-08 13:14

beautiful game and amazing graphic.Good luck!

ma-in 2021-10-09 19:42

Very funny!!!

alexej 2021-10-10 14:49

I likes the concept, but the game was frustrating where it shouldn't be, I like the tactical positioning, and it would've been nice to combine that with real time action and skill, but the jump mechanics feel smushy, I fell through the cracks a lot and I dont see the benefit of using skill, it just feels like the game could've been point&click and be more enjoyable.

pov 2021-10-25 19:01

That's clever. I dig it.
