I just keep dying halfway through the first fight :cold_sweat:
I think dashing in the intended direction is really hard, because you dash towards the character forward/velocity and not the input direction. I'm kind of hooked though :D Gonna keep trying
A fun little boss fight game, was an interesting idea to switch between farming and fighting like that, had fun playing! Though i think it would benefit to have a bit larger invincible window or move a bit sooner, it was really easy to get stuck getting hit multiple times in a row! Nice game overal tho!
Hilarious game, loved it and was very fun!
@neandi Glad you're hooked and I hope you get to the end! - I think I'll be adding a patched version tomorrow with some lighting and small fixes as well as lowering the difficulty a little bit. A whole weekend playing it made me have a warped perception in terms of difficulty haha.
@john333 - Thanks for playing! Will look at fine tuning some of the invincibility for a small patch tomorrow :)
I don't think I understand the farming phase. I planted the seeds, but then what? Do I wait? Do I collect them later after beating the boss?
The boss was also extremely difficult. Maybe I just suck, but I couldn't beat him in at least 10 tries.
I found the transition to death very abrupt. Some kind of feedback, even just a popup telling you that you died would be a big help.
I liked the visuals of the game and the music track seem fitting for the hyper intense gameplay.
@jason-wilson Thanks for trying it out! - The purpose was to fight the boss to gain more corn and survive the 30 seconds to get back to the farming stage and loop until you have enough bullets. I'll add a 1.1 version soon to help clarify some of that information and improve the death transition etc.
Thanks, cool idea, i like it
Interesting concept, but the difficulty is way too high for me hehe :p
Well, I suck at bullet-hell games just as much as I thought I did. Still, the 15 seconds I managed to survive each time were fun, and the art and audio are great! I may come back to this one. I still want to beat that corn!
Great graphics and audio, but like the others said way too difficult :( - I have no idea how I should survive the full circle blast of the corn. Sadly I never saw my plants grow.
@helen Hi I just uploaded a slightly lowered difficulty version as 1.1 - to avoid the big wave you need to dash through with space and a direction. Thank you for playing :)
I really like the concept to farming (literaly) to return stronger. Arts are greats !
I played the easy update (ver1.1) but even with this one i didn't manage to beat the corn ^^"" maybe adding some checkpoints will hep ?
Seen similar games with the same idea but you executed it really well! great job
@upcharlie thanks for making the game easier :) - now I saw my sweet plants and faught back.
Nice Graphics. I felt in love with that cute banana!
This took me a minute to figure out what was needed of me, but I really liked the concept - that you have to keep going back to the boss and getting more seeds to get more ammo and eventually kill him. Nice art too, I loved the bouncy little robot and even giant corn. Unfortunately I died when I had about 30 bullets and 4 or 5 seeds to harvest, I reckon I was pretty close to being able to kill him, hoping for better luck next time!
The concept is fun and the game looks and feels really nice. Unfortunately, I was unable to really dodge anything - the fight difficulty was too high for me. Also it wasn't really clear how planting and harvesting seeds works: I planted them, but there was no indicator for when I could harvest them again.
Great concept! A bit too difficult but has a lot of potential! The dash didn't always work which made it a bit harder
Graphics look great, I appreciate the higher difficulty than most games. A great entry!
Cool concept, though it was a bit hard for me, and normally I'm used to bulletstorm games :(
Cool graphics! Great game, loved it! Nice job :)
