the itch.io link don't seem to work

confusedsoph 2022-10-03 19:05

The itch.io link shows an error. The game isn't showing up on your creator page either. Let me know when you've got it working, because I'm super interested in the game based on your art and description!

very funny and interesting description but no game on itch! maybe still in draft mode?

pinkemma 2022-10-03 19:13

Like the other say, can't seem to play it. The title graphics looks cool though! Like the style.

the link is broken

sticmac 2022-10-03 20:32

We're still working on it until submission hour :) A few last things to do before really publishing the game!

pygargue-pirate 2022-10-03 21:40

Link is no more broken :) ! Enjoy ^^

adnihilis 2022-10-03 21:43

The itch.io link is no more broken ! You can enjoy the game to your heart content! :)

Immediately got pushed into a corner and bullied by zombies lol, it's pretty good.

I like the vibe of this game, and I think the idea of a vampire needing to suck blood every 10 seconds for the theme is really clever.

omaewander 2022-10-04 00:10

Funny game and it fits the theme well! Keep it up

I really love the concept of this and the theme is great! A vampire losing health every 10 seconds really makes sense. I wish the enemies restored your health when you defeated them (so it felt like you were killing to stay alive) vs just looking for the little potions. But overall a really great exploration of the theme!

sticmac 2022-10-04 20:02

@vivifx fun fact, killing enemies *actually* heal you, but I think there are never really enough enemies for it to be visible :sweat_smile:

Pretty nice concept and use of the theme! I think it would have been nice with some more UI to show progress

ghosstea 2022-10-04 22:32

I love the music and animation of the player!

simba 2022-10-04 22:39

Very funny concept and good use of the theme! I wanted some UI to tell the player their HP!

This game was a bit difficult to play due to the janky collision. Sometimes I just couldn't run upwards? The countdown of health as you tried to find the exit of the floor was kind of interesting, but I think some landmarks might have helped navigation.

Nice idea for the theme! I wish there was more feedback - in particular a health bar - so I knew how I was doing and if I should go fight things or keep going. The time I beat it I did so by running through to the end. I think a smaller map with more distinct levels might have been better to navigate. Good work

sticmac 2022-10-05 08:57

@amythyst Don't you have the health bar? Have you played on itch or on here? :)

sticmac 2022-10-05 08:57

Thank you everyone for your constructive and kind comments :heart:

adnihilis 2022-10-05 09:10

Thank you for your feedback everyone ! It is greatly appreciated ! @simba & @amythyst I think there is some kind of problem with the embbed player on this site, because we put an health bar on the game, and it is available on the itch.io version... But here, not, for some reason we don't understand.

roroto-sic 2022-10-05 12:23

great racing animation! I love the aesthetic of the menu! it was a nice game sessionCapture d’écran 2022-10-05 142132.png

Interesting concept! Somehow the enemies kept vanishing, but may be that is based on how the attacks on enemies are registered? The music had its appeal, but I am not sure if it played to the strengths of your game! Good job <3

amythyst 2022-10-05 18:25

@sticmac I see! Yup it's there on itch, so disregard that comment. It looks like maybe the game isn't scaling right in the LD embed and your health bar is scrolled off the screen. Are you working in Unity? Getting screen sizing stuff is really annoying. You can check your game in the preview window by setting the size to match the embed size and seeing how it looks.

Nice concept! Some visual feedback when defeating an enemy would be nice. Sometimes, for my part, it was unclear if did hit or got hitten. Nevertheless you were good in theme and it was easy to understand what to do in the game. :slight_smile:

Really strait forward, no tutorias but self explanatory. Good job

vphyre 2022-10-17 00:06

A very interesting idea. I really liked the vampire theme. The graphics are interesting and functional, as well as the gameplay and sound. The story cinematics are very interesting, and it would be really cool to have this same video in the game too. Good job!
