Attack of the Teves

jason-shapiro 2024-04-16 03:44

I thought I saw everything this game had to offer, and then the archers showed up! And then there was another map!

This is a fun little game. I don't know what Tepes are, but I do know it's satisfying when you manage to kill a giant gang of them with one bomb. I wish I had more control over where I summon the bombs to, though.

What is that little sight cone in front of me good for? At first I thought that it was my little bomb detector and I was digging up the bombs or something, but no, it's a summoning game. <3

Honestly, you know what my favorite thing is? Ok, fine, first - my second favorite thing is the gratuitous amount of gore that spawns when you blow yourself up. It makes me snicker. And my favorite thing is how twisted and weird the music turns when you die, I absolutely love it. Hmm, both of my favorite things involve me hurting myself. Maybe I should seek professional help... Great, now I need therapy. Thanks a lot, Tepes!

core mechanic was fun! i would definitely have appreciated a volume slider for the music.

@jason-shapiro Thanks for the detailed review! The cone in front of the player is the indicator for the kick range. If a bomb is on top of it, you can kick bombs towards the mouse cursor with left click. I wanted to make it light up when a bomb is within range, but we ran out of time unfortunately :)

Nice blood effect!I really enjoy the explosion.... (The respawn button seem doesn't work)

poboy 2024-04-16 04:13

Best looking game so far! Really polished experience.

mistercarson 2024-04-16 04:16

The levels of satisfaction here are awesome! It feels so good to blow up some enemies, nice work!

The music when health is low is so perfect. It took me a minute to figure out how to play, but it was pretty fun once I figured it out. Really fun concept.

Nice job!

Awesome game really like the blood and explosion effects! I really like the physics based combat system. Being forced to lob your projectiles is actually quite an innovative idea. I did however notice a few collision bugs with the player, but other than that a really excellent entry!

gamesplusjames 2024-04-16 09:52

This is a fun idea! Great job :)

fenix131113 2024-04-16 09:55

The game concept and visual effects are very interesting, but I can't click on the "respawn" button

gruzdid 2024-04-16 09:58

Nice game, intersting visual and gameplay. Good job!

sozey 2024-04-16 11:54

Very fun and satisfying entry! The art and audio are great too

kseniya 2024-04-16 16:13

nice

karamaajalt 2024-04-16 16:26

Very nice effects on the explosion, quite fun gameplay!

I liked this game. He is very funny. I was amused. It would be cool if the locations weren't completely so narrow. But at the same time, I understand why it was done, so it’s not scary. I didn’t quite understand what was depicted in location 2 after the snowy forest. Was this the house of demons? If so, then a better hint could have been given. And thanks for the game! This is really cool)

yoruvii 2024-04-16 19:35

@lipr Thanks for playing! yah the second area is a village of some sorts the lore is that the Teves invaded a kingdom and that that is a village overrun with Teves the grass is red because it has soaked up so much blood. I definitely feel like I could have visually communicated it better however due to time constants and conflicts with gameplay (the houses were fully modeled but they made the player and enemy hard to see because their height) it is how it is.

yoruvii 2024-04-16 21:13

@fenix131113 yah the respawn button being broken is a known issue unfortunately it broke at the last second and we could not figure out what broke it in time.

reaperhb 2024-04-16 21:35

playing football with bombs to kill demons, nothing better! This is very fun

kirass 2024-04-16 21:44

Interesting game! I like it!

zablas 2024-04-16 22:23

It is very satisfying to kick the bombs into the enemies. The explosions are well made. Good job! :D

gnum 2024-04-16 22:28

GOOOOOODS!!!

nox282 2024-04-16 22:44

I love games that have a cool core mechanic and go nuts with it. The trick shot potential is insane. The only thing that I thought was frustrating was that the little cone widget didn't really help with aiming. It's something I could get used to if I played more though.

tinykidtoo 2024-04-17 00:03

I love the blood effect, huge gobs flying out. Makes it real satisfying when you hit something. Found it a bit frustrating as I kept getting caught on the trees. But it was really fun too play, needs some screen shake

ionbingo 2024-04-17 00:04

Creatures begone

happy 2024-04-17 00:15

Nice job! The way you kill these creatures is fun and the gore is satisfying. I wished the character collision was a bit better I ended up getting stuck in walls a lot, but besides that I like this game.

yoruvii 2024-04-17 02:12

@tinykidtoo Thanks for playing! Yah the colliders seem to be a little funky I'm not the coder of this game but if I remember correctly it had something to do with wanting the player to be able to slide in movement and be effected by bombs and the fact that any unity player movement methods have downsides and the colliders being funky were a consequence of that. I did plan to add screen shake in the beginning but at some point in the jam I frogor and did not remember until it was too late I do think it would add to the already satisfying bombs it is a fantastic idea.

thomas-gelman 2024-04-17 03:43

Fun little game! Love the visuals, and the detail with the audio getting more wacky the lower your health is. I wish you could restart at the end, but thankfully alt + f4 still works :D.

sozey 2024-04-17 09:30

This is a really fun and entertaining entry! It feels so badass to kick bombs at them !

kristinamay 2024-04-17 10:40

I was very bad at this! I had a hard time kicking the bombs because whenever the bomb loaded for me to kick it, the Teves were already right on top of me and I had to run away. BUT it was really fun to just try to time it right so big groups ran over the bomb right as it was exploding. The gore was :sunglasses: and I looooooved the music becoming slightly off-kilter as it went. Also when I died, I forgot that I could Alt-F4 (it's early) and I just felt rising panic as I looked around for an exit button and the scary bomb sounds and music became scarier and scarier and my screen was all red, lol. Is there another level after the second one? That is as far as my skill brought me. Great work!!

smoky01 2024-04-17 11:16

The gameplay mechanics in this game are so intuitive! It's like the controls become an extension of your own instincts. Plus, the art style adds a unique flair that keeps you engaged throughout. Definitely a gem worth exploring!

evgenii-victorovich 2024-04-17 12:32

I liked the visuals when demons smash into pieces after mine impact, also the idea with the sound when your hp gets low is amazing.

nycoisdreaming 2024-04-17 18:43

Fun core mechanic and liked the different levels! Wouldve loved to see more variation, and maybe interaction though. but still congrats on making a cool little game:D

yoruvii 2024-04-17 20:47

@kristinama Thanks for playing! yah it really frustrated us that the respawn buttons broke at the end we looked into it recently and it turned out that the event system somehow got deleted in the main scene and that's why the buttons broke😭. There are 3 levels in total the forest the village then the castle and new enemy's spawn throughout the game we have melee Teve, Archer Teve, and a massive Teve that throws bombs back at you. Massive Teve always kills me :) he starts spawning midway trough the village. It takes quite a bit of finesse to beat the game. my runs usually end in the village but some tactics seems to make it a little easier like hiding in the alleys behind buildings. It does get easier once you start learning the game more its cool :).

tykenn 2024-04-18 00:36

At first I didn't realize you could kick the bombs, so I was just trying to lure them into place and timing it right. Which worked well enough, but kicking the was pretty fun once I started doing that.

baluj 2024-04-18 21:47

It's an interesting concept, I like the game. Good job!

n3k0k33p3r 2024-04-19 21:56

Interesting idea, yet a bit buggy, bit i like it. Good luck!

paulsams 2024-05-03 15:59

It was a lot of fun. True, the restart button did not work, and it was also easy to get stuck in trees and similar little things. It would be even cooler, I think, if the blood particles didn’t disappear. But thank you for such an enjoyable, albeit simple, game.
