Interesting idea but I would not call this a game. It's an experiment. As for the controls: remember that innovative does not mean unlogical. I would have had much better experience with classic keys to move and mouse to look.
Really funny and original game. There were some choices I did not know how to decide: exe vs zip, easy vs medium vs hard. You captured the theme nicely, though.
I think there's space to tailor the sounds more to the mood. The basic gameplay was fun but it started to be repetitive very soon with not much to do (and empty mana source).
@synthphonia I know. Of course it's awesome that you've made such product in one weekend. Excuse me but I just tend to be critical :D (not like our game is any better).
Well-designed mechanics. Double-jump: actually had to search the comments to find out about it - not good. Otherwise enjoyable but repetitive.
The environment was too confusing for me. Turn down that sensitivity, guys.
I only wish the game was longer :(
@leothil Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, there is no indicator of the arrow amount but they are limited. You can replenish them at your home and also, when you boost yourself, the max number you can carry gets increased but there is no way to tell from the game right now, that's true.
I really liked the gameplay. It reminded me of good old Ricochet Robots (which are not that known) but The Reign of Lambs builds upon that concept and changes it. It's a shame you couldn't finish the story but I didn't mind :) The game was the primary goal and that was included, so far I am satisfied. To the audio: music was great, could change from time to time (have more tracks in stash), I missed the sounds of ramming rams.
I was having a lot of fun. The simple starting menu screen was great. The theme was well used. Well, a classic space shooter otherwise but it made the new concepts made up for it.
Hard to survive the enemy shots. Can't get too far - don't see much of the sacrifice potential but there might be more in the future levels.
