You seem to have not finished, but still "published" the game? Too bad

paulsams 2023-01-11 03:55

@svenerik Thanks for the comment, but I did it on purpose, because I realized that due to the fact that we placed just a million light sources and shadows, we got 15 fps in WebGL, huh). And I didn't want to let people play this). It was necessary, of course, to make a downloadable build, but I only thought of that now). I was tired and was busy all Tuesday). But now you can try our project, if you want).

@paulsams Aighte! Works now, though weirdly not on here, itch one is fine!

One the game subject, very blade runner esque and cyberpunkish setting there, which I like a lot, but didn't imagine someone mixed in harvest into that, the visuals are really fancy and all of the animations & assets fit together well - making it a complete product. While I also really like the music, the constant fast pacing of it gets old really fast, specially when I'm trying to jump somewhere and I hear a music that makes me want to katana someone instead. Besides that gameplay is solid and polished.

Good Job!

Good use of mood, although I confess I have no real idea what the story was about! I had fun exploring around a bit, then I got stuck in an elevator. Still, a good time. Good use of music too.

paulsams 2023-01-11 16:33

@adam-burt Thanks). And let me clarify: by getting "stuck", did you mean that you made a slide before getting into the elevator and he just stopped and didn't let you do anything else?

adam-burt 2023-01-11 16:52

@paulsams I was in the elevator, and it went up, I got out and explored the floor but couldn't seem to do anything there yet (I needed a key I think?) so I went back in the lift and it didn't go anywhere. I could still move around but I think I was trapped? Sorry if I missed something I was supposed to do! I tried pressing all the buttons.

paulsams 2023-01-11 17:00

@adam-burt Aaa… You didn’t understand what to do in this case - well, this is our misstake, since you didn’t understand, that where it was necessary to move). To go further, it was necessary to notice the grate in the elevator, break it with a above attack , and then see the grate to the left of the elevator and slide into it.

loved the mechanics and mood! great job!

I liked mood and graphics, but controls felt a bit off, like I had an issue jumping out of that tunnel below building. I think movement might need some improvemnt, to feel just a bit sharper and more intuitive to control. But mood and sounds are quite nice

glaupe-cabral 2023-01-11 18:21

Man I thought your game was very cool, congratulations! Incredible art as hell, sound too. Once again, congratulations. Ah, if you have a little time, join my game and see what you think of it. But the ideal is to download it, because the ludum window is giving an error in the screen proportion! It cost!!!

sevenzik 2023-01-11 20:31

Wow, it's really cool! Looking great:3

pros: art and idea

cons: I have some troubles with control, heh

hope u will have more players, go on :3

paulsams 2023-01-11 21:35

@sevenzik Thanks). ^_^ Can you describe the management problems? It would be cool).

burnsdesigns 2023-01-12 11:55

Man! That was an ambitious game jam! All that art and mobility and extra polish within the timeframe is crazy! Nicely done

taikinaaa 2023-01-12 14:20

Great game!

ghostbomb 2023-01-12 14:44

It's really cool you went with something this ambitious even though it's a little unpolished. Great entry! Really cool artwork and concept.

witchgf 2023-01-12 15:22

Concept is interesting, but I barely feel any correlation with the theme and controls are very specific.

squashi 2023-01-12 18:28

Really neat and awesome looking game! When i first saw the game i was like "this can't be done in a game jam" , lol. It can be a bit more juicier maybe. But mostly movement and keybinds was frustrating for me, so i couldn't finish the game. But from what i've played it looks great! Good work!

darkenezy 2023-01-13 21:08

Very nice dynamic platformer with hack&slash elements. I appreciate the plot, sounds fun :^)

Experience was a litle laggy 4me

yamzho 2023-01-14 17:03

I am impressed by the work done here.

I have tried two runs, one of them went smoothly, the second one had an issue with framerate.

But overall, you've done an excellent job with the art and the mood of the game. Well done!

n0va 2023-01-21 14:25

Could not go underground and was unable to get to the police station for several reasons. Like the elevator not working and character could not jump high enough to the third floor. Duno if the station was there?

But otherwise it was quite visually striking and polished in that sense. Great entry 👍

paulsams 2023-01-21 14:51

@n0va We thought that the player would notice that when the elevator falls, after you slip through the grate to the left of the elevator, then in the middle of the location it will be visible that steam has started to come out of the pipe and it will be possible to get into the main character's house through this pipe and climb to the highest floor). Or did elevator not even go up to the second floor? Then you need to go a little deeper enter it.
